RACE EIGHT
AWAYOVERNIGHT (6) cops the outside paint again after facing this same alley last week. Finding the pocket trail on that occasion and finishing 2nd to GO JO JOLT, he has become accustomed to tough gates in Qld and following a gritty win here tow back from the second line, can look to cash in again.
SMOKING ZAK (2) is first up from a spell and makes his Qld debut for Darren McCall. Arriving a six-time winner, his last victory was over 12-months back at the Penrith 2125m trip. With a sound preparatory trial, he has the gate to make an impression first up at his 100th career start.
JILLIBY GIZMO (3) forced the issue from gate 5 here last start and worked to the front, holding on for 2nd as SUBTLE ADVICE was able to run him down. Fitter again after three runs back, he can feature.
BERTILS FIREFOX (8) was snookered away against the poles from inside the second line last start and was not too far away. From the running line, he can be making a closing raid.
SELECTIONS: AWAYOVERNIGHT (6), SMOKING ZAK (2), JILLIBY GIZMO (3), BERTILS FIREFOX (8)
SUGGESTED BET: AWAYOVERNIGHT (6) to win
