STAR OF ASCOT (3) closed last prep with a eighth over 7f at Gold Coast on June 14. Worth noting that he opened the last campaign with a minor placing at Toowoomba over 5f. Comes down a level this time. Best form puts him right in this. BRAVE IN SEATTLE (5) is a three-year-old filly by Brave Smash out of Blue Seattle on debut for the Beau Gorman stable. Has a Doomben trial placing to her credit. Serious contender, particularly if solid in the market. CHEEKY'S TIME (7) was in the money at Warwick when resuming two runs back then could only manage fourth at Sunshine Coast over 5f two-and-a-half weeks ago. Blinkers added this time. Best form stacks up and she is among the chances. CARPET RIDE (6) is appearing for the first time. By Bivouac and is out of the Matthew Hoysted stable. Worth watching for a betting push.
