Best Bet Gold Coast r9 Viddora; Has raced very competitively against the best sprinters going around. Races well fresh and has a big class edge here.

Gold Coast r1 Dinnigan ; Ran 2nd to Pierata in a group 3 then lobs here as an odds on fav in a maiden.

Gold Coast r6 Care to Think; His racing pattern often gets him in a pickle but he is going so well he still wins. He has a horror gate but is too talented not to tip.

Gold Coast r7 Pierata; Vets have cast a doubt on his soundness pre race which is very concerning when tipping a hot favourite. I can only assume if he is still in the field he is 100% and if that's the case he will go almighty close. A star in the making.

Best Bet Gold Coast r7 Sheza Lily; Is in sparkling form besides no luck last start when out late and thundering home. Loves this track and distance, might give them a start but will be coming hard again late.

Ascot r2 Touch Of Silver; Got too far back last week. Small field suits and if handles quick back will finish over the top of them.

Inters Final

After 3 rounds of heats crammed into a week, then a week to analyze the all important barrier draw, the ultimate test of stamina is here. Ive narrowed it down to three winning chances in what shapes as a classic contest.

1. Tiger Tara $5.50 ; No one would of left the barrier draw happier than Tiger's connections. A tough stayer that won one heat leading all the way keeping Lazarus at bay and placed by breezing in the others.  Has the speed to lead and most likely hold Lazarus early again as doubt it can take a sit and out sprint him.

2. Lazarus $2.15 ; Has been fav all series despite only winning one heat. Best draw tonight but will most likely have to do all the work in the breeze. Getting past Tiger and holding the swooper's out late won't be easy but he is a champion pacer with a phenomenal trainer .

10. Chicago Bull $3.90; WA's best hope with champion WA father/son Hall combination. He's little but has the heart of a bull and has a habit of peaking in finals and winning. Two soft heat wins from favourable barriers and a held up 3rd. Can't see a scenario where it isn't leaders back or 3 back pegs and will be extremely dangerous from there.
