Mick Price can't find any negatives with dual Group One winner Heart Of Dreams and believes the weight-for-age scale favours the five-year-old in the Hollindale Stakes.
The Group Two 1800m feature at the Gold Coast has attracted a quality field including five Group One winners, Heart of Dreams, Scenic Shot, Triple Honour, Shoot Out and My Kingdom Of Fife.
Price believes My Kingdom Of Fife, a last start winner of the Group One Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Randwick and formerly owned by the Queen, is the standout danger.
"I don't think Shoot Out is racing as good as he was, Scenic Shot is getting long in the tooth and Triple Honour may also have seen better days," Price said.
"I doubt Dao Dao will get the distance but I like My Kingdom Of Fife.
"I know he won the Queen Elizabeth Stakes but I really liked his first-up win here (Australia)."
My Kingdom Of Fife scored a stunning win for his new trainer Chris Waller when he stormed home in the Group Three Doncaster Prelude (1600m) at Randwick on April 9.
The six-year-old franked the form with a convincing victory in the Group One Queen Elizabeth Stakes (2000m) at Randwick a fortnight later.
Price couldn't be happier with Heart Of Dreams who has won twice at elite level in the Underwood Stakes (1800m) at Caulfield and Australian Guineas (1600m) at Flemington in 2009.
He has also won twice from four attempts over 1800 metres, his second victory over the distance coming in the Group Two St George Stakes at Caulfield in February.
"He's going great and I think he's got a great chance," Price said.
"I think he's in the same form as when he ran in the Orr Stakes in the autumn."
Heart Of Dreams was runner-up to Typhoon Tracy in the Group One Orr Stakes (1400m) at Caulfield in February en route to the Group One Australian Cup at Flemington in March.
"He ran fourth in the Australian Cup but he got too far back," Price said.
"It's a good race but I think weight-for-age will sort out the men from the boys."
Heart Of Dreams came to Queensland following his last start third to Hay List in the Group One All Aged Stakes (1400m) at Randwick on April 23.
Shoot Out's trainer John Wallace can't fault last year's Australian Derby winner and expects he'll be in the finish.
The four-year-old was a disappointing ninth behind Black Caviar in the Group One T J Smith at Randwick last month before a much better effort when fifth to Hay List in the Group One All-Aged Stakes on the same track two weeks later.
"Corey Brown is very happy with him. We'd never have beaten Hay List on the heavy track last time but Corey felt he would have run second if it was dry," Wallace said.
"He's a different horse now to the spring. I had to work him off a pony then but we don't do that now."
