Sunshine Coast Race 1

Mc Polytrack Mdn Hcp

Prize Money: $30,000

CANYA BERICH (3) is a maiden galloper who resumes after finishing in the money over 1110m at Doomben 21 months ago. Fitter for two trials, placing most recently. Rates among the leading chances while fresh. TEELG (1) is unlucky to still be a maiden finishing runner-up in both starts to date and strikes a very winnable contest here. Looms as the main danger. OLD FAITHFUL (4) is a five-start maiden who resumed from a spell last start and was beaten 7 lengths when tenth over 1200m at this track. Can come on from that run and looks a serious top-three contender. SAVASTEEL (2) improved last start when he made late ground to finish third over 1000m at this circuit. Finds a suitable race and may trouble the judge again.
