Q Straight Race 12

Ladbrokes Odds Surge 5Th Grade H

Prize Money: $2,700

RED TAPE (8) finished second (30.08) two back at Q Parklands but out of the placings last time when 7th there. The form from his last run stacks up well. Tough to beat if on-song. GENOVESE (6) put in a much better performance last start when in the placings at this track behind Big Al's (19.10) in a Grade 5. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Leading player again. AYRTON HERRERA (2) turned in a plain performance last time when fifth at Q Lakeside over 550m behind Big Bang (31.47) in a Grade 5/6. Leading chance. FEDERAL JOKER (4) can play a role in the finish without surprising.

Hasn't shown any early speed lately and drifts back in his races. The latest effort was a 6 length seventh over 366m at Capalaba. Others favoured this time.

Goes well at this track and trip. Latest effort finished 5th over 550m at Q Lakeside beaten 7 lengths (31.47) behind Big Bang in a Grade 5/6 on January 27. Not far away last start. Right in the mix again.
