Verdict

SHOALWATER BAY (1) was in the money on the dirt at Longreach two runs ago then backed it up with a win, also on dirt, at Alpha over 1700m nine days ago. Has a decent record at this track and is right in this contest. RUN FREDA RUN (11) tasted defeat last start when fourth over 1700m at Alpha, beaten 5.5 lengths. Placed to advantage so expect a better run from the low draw. HOWSE (10) missed the placings two runs back then was never in contention last start when 6 lengths away in seventh over 1630m at Emerald. Best figures measure up nicely and is sure to run well with the 2kg weight relief. DIVINE COURAGE (6) has placed over this track and trip and may trouble the judge with any luck in running.
