SOIREE (2) took the sit on the lead from a low draw but levelled up and led around the bend to score (41.57) at Q Parklands in a OPEN over 710m. Winner at her latest appearance in the quickest time on the card. Form reads well for this. SURREALIST (4) was in the placings last time but prior to that clocked a strong 34.57 win over 600m at Q Parklands. Has the ability and looks a key chance. AYDEN'S WARRIOR (3) is generally an honest type in the frame at 23 of 63 starts but missed the placings last time when fifth (35.05) over 605m at Dubbo. Has a good record at this journey. Looks suited and expected to run well. VODKA AND ICE (1) must be respected at his pet distance.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at Q Parklands over 710m in 41.57 last start, beating Akela Ninjutsu. Has hit winning form and can go on with it.

Won two starts back when well in the market at Q Parklands over 600m. Last start finished 3rd in a OPEN on April 11 over 642m at Q Lakeside behind Highway Princess beaten 6 lengths (36.42). Well-performed from this draw. Key chance on best form.

Missed the frame last start when fifth but had been in strong form prior to that, winning two on end before placing two back. Has ability but needs to find best and others make more appeal.
