Verdict

MAKAMAE (14) lines up on the back of a 1.4 length fifth over 1 ¹/16m at Ipswich. Ready to peak now third-up from the break and has the right credentials to play a major role in the finish. DOUBLE WHAMMY (3) improved sharply last time out to score by a nose over 1m at Sunshine Coast Poly two-and-a-half weeks ago. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. FULL STRENGTH (4) is a last-start winner over this track and trip who draws low and gets some weight relief with the claim. Ticks a few boxes. NINJITZOU (9) has been just out of the money of late including last time out when fourth over 1 ¹/16m at Ipswich a week-and-a-half ago, beaten 1.1 lengths. Can turn things around.
