Comments: Gold Coast 3-3 Supercilious comes off a non-TAB win at Beaudesert over this trip a week ago. Has a win and 5 placings from 10 goes at this track and this field is not strong so he must be a chance. Gold Coast 4-1 Kane Mochi won his Maiden easily here at his first start and then finished 2L behind Swiss Ace at Eagle Farm (albeit with no weight). If he's anywhere near right then you'd think he'll be winning this. Gold Coast 6-1 Leapfrog was backed from 9/1 into 7/2 when leading throughout over this course at his first start. This looks well within scope but I'm not too excited about the $2.10 on the morning line. Toowoomba 4-3 Jarhnne ran well first up in a Class 2 race before going one better last time when dropping back a grade. Steps back up to a Class 2 and looks to have a top chance from her good draw.
