Stake: $30,780

Good little contest with some promising first starters engaged. BOOYA BOY (2) is a well-bred Bivouac gelding from the former top race mare Set For Fame on debut for the Adam Campton yard. Impressed in both trial wins and gets his chance from the inside gate. ARTIE VAINQUEUR (8) showed good early speed on debut before knocking up late in the soft going when fifth over 1015m at this track. Has further upside and finds a winnable race to stake her claim. ENCHAANTED (9) three-year-old filly by Exceedance from Lanyard on debut for the in-form Munce stable. Impressed in both trial wins and should have the pace to overcome the wide gate. Top-three prospect. DARE TO LOVE (5) winkers go on and fitter now after surging late for a respectable third over 1015m at this track. Gets her chance with the race experience.

At the latest run 4th of 8 at Ipswich 4yo+ Mdn-Sw on November 20 over 800m, 2.75 len behind Betta Being Single with 56kg at $21. The race before that faded in the straight second last of 7 at Gold Coast Poly Mdn-Sw on November 4 over 1050m, 9 len behind Romantic Bubble with 56.5kg at $9.50. Tough to beat if near her best.
