Prize Money: $2,400

SUMMER SAND (2) looks close to another win after finishing third last time (24.11) in a Grade 6 at Rockhampton. Yet to score from this box but has never missed the frame in two starts. One of the leading chances. BLACK RIFLE (1) was strong over this course and distance last time despite filling the minors, finishing 0.6 lengths behind Swing Shift in 22.22 and recording a new PB here. Looks a leading chance again. TILLY'S SON (3) filled a minor placing last start at this track behind Poppy Ed (29.20) in a Restricted WIN. Winning chance. PIERRE D'ARCY (7) is in the mix despite missing out at this track last time.

Nearing another win after claiming his maiden success on January 24 at this track over 380m. Last start was third over 380m in 22.22, behind Swing Shift. Rates highly on best form. Expected to feature.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fourth last time out over 380m at this track. Other runners look much more appealing.
