Winner1. KeitelSP $2.80
★ Top pick6th
6Liberty Steps
Liberty Steps presents the best winning chance with an outstanding Sunshine Coast record and perfect strike rate at this track and distance. The recent close second at Gold Coast suggests a return to form, and the good track conditions suit perfectly. Despite the wide barrier, the long straight at Sunshine Coast negates draw concerns.
2nd pickWon
1Keitel
The ideal barrier draw and proven ability on good tracks make him a serious contender. However, the lack of track experience and moderate distance record provide some concern against the top selection.
3rd pick2nd
2Don Pedro
Don Pedro brings the best distance credentials with an excellent 1400m record and recent wins. The class drop should suit, and good track conditions are ideal. However, the poor last start and lack of track experience create doubt against the more reliable top two selections.
Value pick5th
5Billionair Baby

5Admitted
Admitted brings strong credentials with a perfect 1000m record and excellent Good 4 track form. The class drop from higher grades and first-time tongue tie addition are positive signs.

2Mishani Renegade
Mishani Renegade offers value as a second-up runner with an outstanding 1000m record of 3 wins from 5 starts. His Good 4 track form is solid, and the significant class drop from previous racing levels provides opportunity. The top weight is a concern, but his distance credentials are compelling.
Value pick4th

10Royal Mover
Royal Mover represents the strongest selection despite being a debut runner. The barrier 2 draw is perfect for this 1000m sprint start, allowing for an ideal forward position.
2nd pick3rd
9Parading Gus
Parading Gus returns from a 148-day spell with a perfect first-up record, having finished second in his only career start. Ben Thompson's booking adds confidence, and the extended break suggests a targeted return. While experience is limited, the first-up statistics and tactical advantages make this a strong second selection.
3rd pick2nd
1Bruckheimer
Bruckheimer brings consistent form without a win from 9 career starts. The barrier 1 draw is ideal for this 1000m start, and the recent form suggests he's close to breaking through. However, the winless record and top weight assignment create some concerns about his ability to finally breakthrough.
Value pick5th
