From memory backmarkers have dominated this event in the past and with the likes of Best French (last years winner), Fictitious Lady, Star Folly, Wombalano Belle, Hialeah Star and of course Lindalay, who all like to race up front, the race should be made to order for the backmarkers again. So selecting Kind Spirits from Dane Shakira, Image Of Reality and Pekalan.

did like image of reality until scratched.

now i will go with Landalay from Secret Gift.....just i think

i must have improved my tipping skills.
last time i tipped on a listed race at gold coast i tipped 6 horses in the race all of which ran unplaced .
this year i only tipped 4 horses all of which ran unplaced.

this has to be an improvement.
