Race Tip

THE DEFENDER (2) is a maiden galloper who hasn't raced since finishing 5 lengths back in fourth over 6f122yards at Geelong five months ago. Primed for this return with a trial win. Looks set for a bright return. MAJESTIC CHOICE (7) has switched yards since finishing fifth six-and-a-half weeks ago over 7f at Ballarat Synthetic. Definite winning chance in this line-up. BESTOV (4) was beaten 5. 5 lengths into third at Middlemount two starts ago then finished 1. 1 lengths from the winner in fourth last time at Rockhampton. Blinkers added this time. Shapes well and is among the main hopes. ANTHROPOLOGY (3) was in contention on the turn and finished third last time over 6f at Mackay when resuming from a lay-off, beaten 1. 75 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run.
