MARIA CLARA (6) will find this a little easier than her third on debut four weeks ago, beaten 0. 9 lengths at the end of 6f at this track. Tricky draw to overcome but she will be hard to beat. SUMMER SENSATION (9) resumes from a lay-off of four-and-a-half months. Could only manage to finish sixth at the latest run over 6f in the QTIS JEWEL (2yo) at this track. Should present well following a recent trial win. Good chance to break through. HOT IMAGE (5) improved last time out, finishing 1. 1 lengths from the winner in third when she worked home well at the end of 5½f at Ipswich. Finds a suitable race and can find the winner's circle. SOVEREIGN STYLE (8) is a filly by Jonker and out of the dam Bonne Vie. Cost AUD $ 22,000 (Magic Millions 2025 Gold Coast March Yearling Sale) as a yearling. Won most recent trial. Profiles well in this line up, worth keeping safe.
