2Mister Tia

Our price $3.80 · SP $6.50 · Ivo Fry

His inside draw is perfect for Cairns' tight-turning track, and he's shown ability on soft going.

2nd pickWon
1Sowilo Siren

Our price $2.50 · SP $1.30 · Tyler Leslight

While yet to win at track or distance, he has placed multiple times (4: 0-2-0) and handles himself well in competition. The top weight of 60kg is a concern, as is his moderate record on soft tracks. Will likely settle midfield and be running on strongly.

3rd pick2nd
4Raff Vader

Our price $5.00 · SP $6.50 · Sean Cormack

The weight advantage (54.5kg) is significant, and he should get a good position from barrier 5. However, his poor record at both track and distance (3: 0-0-0) and on soft tracks (4: 0-0-0) are concerns. Has been racing consistently without winning.

★ Top pick4th
2Outono

Our price $2.20 · SP $1.85 · Ryan Wiggins

Outono brings the strongest recent form with a close 2nd last start at this track over 1400m. The inside draw (barrier 3) is ideal for Cairns' configuration, and his on-pace racing style suits this track perfectly. While yet to win, his form is clearly improving with each run, and the step up to 1500m looks suitable based on his finishing efforts. The experienced Ryan Wiggins aboard is another positive.

2nd pickWon
1Combat Crusader

Our price $4.50 · SP $4.20 · Aidan Holt

Combat Crusader brings solid form credentials with two second placings from seven starts and has shown ability on soft tracks. The good barrier draw should allow him to settle in a forward position, which is advantageous at Cairns. Main query is carrying top weight of 60kg.

3rd pick2nd
5Flourish

Our price $8.00 · SP $10.00 · Jackson Murphy

Flourish showed ability with a solid 3rd placing last start at this track over 1400m. She carries a weight advantage as a mare and appears to be improving with each run. The wide barrier is a concern at Cairns, but her recent form suggests she's ready to be competitive. Her previous experience at this track (0-0-1 from 3 starts) is a positive, though she's yet to prove herself on soft tracks.

Value pick5th
4Uris

Our price $9.00 · SP $12.00 · Amanda Thomson

His record of 0-2-3 from 11 starts shows consistency, and he has previous experience at Cairns including a placing. The significant class drop is a major positive, and if the predicted moderate-fast tempo eventuates, he could finish strongly.

2Valenki

Our price $2.10 · SP $2.25 · Ryan Wiggins

Valenki brings excellent recent form with 2 wins from his last 3 starts. His track record at Cairns is strong and he's proven at the distance. While barrier 7 isn't ideal given the track bias, his tactical speed should allow him to overcome this. The slight step up in distance from his last start shouldn't pose any issues, and he gets the services of top jockey Ryan Wiggins.

2nd pickWon
3Fodor

Our price $2.70 · SP $3.40 · Sean Cormack

Fodor brings strong credentials with an excellent record at Cairns and specifically at this track and distance. The inside barrier is advantageous given the track bias, and he's well-weighted with 54.5kg. Sean Cormack is a positive jockey booking.

Value pick3rd
6Spirit Meister

Our price $6.50 · SP $10.00 · Jackson Murphy

He has an outstanding record at Cairns with 6 wins and 15 placings from 26 starts, and specifically at this track and distance with 4 wins and 8 placings from 14 starts. The inside barrier and light weight are significant advantages.

3Leconfield

Our price $3.00 · SP $4.80 · Nathan Thomas

Leconfield brings the strongest recent form into this race with a last-start win at Cairns and consistently good performances. With proven ability on soft tracks and at this distance, he looks well-placed to continue his good form despite the weight.

2nd pick2nd
2Innovates

Our price $3.50 · SP $3.20 · Jackson Murphy

Innovates has the advantage of barrier 1 which is crucial at Cairns. His record at the track is excellent and he handles soft tracks well. While he hasn't raced at this distance at Cairns before, his overall consistency and recent form suggest he'll be competitive. The blinkers going back on could sharpen him up, but he faces a class rise which is the main concern.

3rd pick6th
1Premium Star

Our price $5.00 · SP $3.60 · Ryan Wiggins

Premium Star brings strong credentials with an excellent track and distance record. The main concerns are the top weight of 60.5kg and the wide barrier draw, which is a significant disadvantage at Cairns. His tendency to get back in running is also not ideal at this track, but his class and experience keep him in contention.

Value pickWon
4It''s Been A Trek

Our price $3.80 · SP $4.40 · Krysten Swaffer

It's Been A Trek represents good value given his recent win and strong record at the distance. While his Cairns record is a concern, his current form suggests he's ready to improve on that.

5The Kamikaze

Our price $2.40 · SP $2.00 · Ivo Fry

THE KAMIKAZE brings exceptional credentials with a dominant record at Cairns over this distance (4:3-0-0). His back-to-back wins show he's in peak form, and his most recent victory at this track and distance was impressive. The inside barrier is perfect for Cairns' tight-turning track, and he's proven on soft going. While rising in class, his recent performances suggest he's ready for the challenge.

2nd pick7th
3Lucky Rolla

Our price $4.50 · SP $9.00 · Sean Cormack

LUCKY ROLLA presents as a genuine winning chance with consistent recent form including multiple wins. The wide barrier is a concern at Cairns, but his tactical versatility should allow him to overcome this. The 50-day freshen-up is the main query, but his overall form credentials are strong.

3rd pick8th
2Flying Artist

Our price $6.00 · SP $9.50 · Ryan Wiggins

FLYING ARTIST has solid credentials with a good record at track and distance. His front-running style is perfectly suited to Cairns' tight-turning track, and he's proven on soft going. The main concern is that he's first-up from a long spell with a poor fresh record. If he can overcome the fitness query, his on-pace running style gives him a strong chance in this race setup.

Value pick5th
6Catalina Dreaming

Our price $5.00 · SP $9.00 · Wanderson D''Avila

5Targeted

Our price $3.20 · SP $2.70 · Krysten Swaffer

TARGETED brings strong credentials with an excellent record at this track and distance (6:1-2-0). His barrier 2 draw is ideal for Cairns' tight-turning track, and his recent form is solid with a close second last start. He handles soft tracks and should get an ideal run from the inside draw. While his win strike rate is modest, his place record suggests consistency.

3rd pick5th
1Mutafiq

Our price $4.50 · SP $3.60 · Ryan Wiggins

MUTAFIQ brings a class edge as the top weight and has a strong record at Cairns (8:2-2-0). However, the wide barrier 8 draw is a significant disadvantage at Cairns' tight-turning track, and he's carrying the top weight of 61kg. His disappointing last start is a concern.

Value pick3rd

1Colours Of Autumn

Our price $2.20 · SP $1.60 · Sean Cormack

Colours Of Autumn brings the strongest recent form, winning last start at this track over 1400m. While carrying top weight of 62kg is a concern, the mare is dropping in class which offsets this. The main query is her soft track record with no wins from 8 starts, though she has placed 3 times.

2nd pick5th
2Indefinite

Our price $4.80 · SP $9.00 · Ivo Fry

Indefinite brings solid credentials with consistent recent form including a win and a placing in his last three starts. The gelding has a good barrier draw in 4 which should allow him to settle in a forward position. The main concern is his soft track record with no wins from 4 starts, though he has placed twice.

3rd pickWon
4Sand ''n'' Power

Our price $6.00 · SP $6.00 · Micheal Mc Donald

Sand ''n'' Power comes into this race in good form, winning last start over 1470m at Bowen. The gelding has a reasonable record on soft tracks with 1 win and 3 placings from 8 starts. The main concerns are the wide barrier and the significant class rise, but he's an improving type who should handle the distance.

Value pick3rd
8Bombinate

Our price $15.00 · SP $26.00 · Jason Taylor

He gets in with just 54kg and has drawn the inside barrier which is advantageous at Cairns. While his win strike rate is poor with just 1 win from 16 starts, he has been placing consistently with 2 seconds and 4 thirds. The soft track is a query.
