2Midori Forest

Our price $2.20 · SP $2.50 · Paul Hamblin

Winner1. CorvalistSP $2.50
★ Top pickWon
1Corvalist

Our price $2.40 · SP $2.50 · Micheal Mc Donald

Corvalist brings the strongest recent form, breaking his maiden status just 10 days ago at Cloncurry. While he's stepping up in class and carrying top weight, his consistency (5 seconds and 6 thirds from 18 starts) and advantageous barrier draw make him the standout selection.

2nd pick7th
3French Empire

Our price $3.60 · SP $4.80 · Robert Faehr

French Empire comes off a strong maiden win at Jundah and shows an improving form trend. His record at the 1200m distance is solid with 1 win and 1 second from 4 attempts. While also facing a class rise, he appears to be hitting form at the right time and should be suited by the likely fast tempo. Expect him to settle midfield and finish strongly.

3rd pick6th
7Superstellar

Our price $5.00 · SP $5.50 · Denicious Smith

Superstellar brings solid recent form with a 3rd placing at Cloncurry just 10 days ago. She has experience at Mt Isa with a second placing from three attempts at the track. While she's only won once from 18 starts, her consistency and familiarity with the track give her an edge over many rivals. The slight class rise shouldn't pose a significant challenge.

Value pick2nd
8Bitterblue

Our price $6.00 · SP $10.00 · Chris Whiteley

Bitterblue represents excellent value given his strong record at Mt Isa with 1 win, 5 seconds and 1 third from 17 starts at the track.

★ Top pickWon
3Viking Valour

Our price $2.10 · SP $2.35 · Paul Hamblin

Viking Valour brings the strongest recent form, dropping significantly in class after a solid 4th at Cloncurry. The tongue tie first time could provide further improvement, and his consistency in higher grade makes him the standout.

2nd pick2nd
1Vonk

Our price $2.40 · SP $1.90 · Chris Whiteley

The advantageous barrier 1 draw should allow him to utilize his early speed, though the 64kg impost is significant. While unproven at this track and distance, his overall form credentials are strong, and he should be right in the finish.

3rd pick3rd
7Hellarama

Our price $9.00 · SP $18.00 · Shane Mc Govern

The advantageous barrier 2 draw should allow him to find a good position, and he'll be suited by the predicted fast tempo. Despite poor recent form, he can bounce back at a track he performs well at.

Value pick5th
8Rogue ''n'' Ready

Our price $8.00 · SP $20.00 · Denicious Smith

Rogue ''n'' Ready offers significant value given her excellent record at Mt Isa (2-3-1 from 9 starts) and specifically at this track and distance (0-2-0 from 2 starts).

6Napoleon Strike

Our price $3.20 · SP $4.00 · Chris Whiteley

Napoleon Strike brings the strongest credentials with an impressive 32% win rate and 47% place rate. His distance record is excellent with 4 wins from 7 starts at 1200m. Recent form is solid with a close 2nd last start at Cloncurry over this distance. While first time at this track, his adaptability and class suggest he can overcome the wide barrier.

2nd pick7th
1Le Force

Our price $4.50 · SP $6.00 · Paul Hamblin

Le Force brings strong credentials as a proven performer at Mt Isa with 5 wins from 18 starts at the track. His recent form is solid with a win two starts back. The good barrier draw (3) should allow him to utilize his early speed in what's expected to be a very fast tempo. The main concern is the top weight of 62kg, which could be telling in the final stages against lighter-weighted rivals.

3rd pick5th
7Ferrari Girl

Our price $6.00 · SP $2.90 · Samantha Pointon

Ferrari Girl brings solid credentials with recent consistent form, including a 3rd placing last start at Cloncurry over this distance. Her light weight (53kg) is a significant advantage, and the inside barrier should allow her to secure a good position in the run. The main query is her limited experience at Mt Isa, but her adaptability suggests she can handle the track.

Value pick4th
4Santorini Sun

Our price $5.50 · SP $5.00 · Denicious Smith

The quick 10-day backup suggests she's fit and ready, and her 3rd placing last start indicates she's in good form. While stepping up from 1000m to 1200m, her record at the distance (4-2-3 from 21 starts) suggests this won't be an issue.

2Zavaboom

Our price $1.80 · SP $1.55 · Paul Hamblin

Zavaboom brings the strongest recent form into this race with consecutive 2nd placings and a win three starts back. While carrying equal top weight, he's proven capable at this level and should get an ideal run from barrier 9 with his on-pace racing style. The very fast tempo should suit his racing pattern.

2nd pick5th
1Heavenly Legend

Our price $2.30 · SP $3.70 · Robert Faehr

Heavenly Legend comes off a last-start win and boasts an excellent track and distance record (3: 1-1-1). While rising in class and carrying equal top weight, his consistency and track suitability make him a major contender. Should get an ideal run from the inside gate.

2Last Ditch Effort

Our price $3.50 · SP $3.00 · Maddie Mankelow

Dropping in class from recent Class 6 company and should get an ideal on-pace position in what projects as a fast-tempo race. The wide barrier is a slight concern, but his early speed should overcome this.

2nd pick6th
4Peaceful Prince

Our price $4.00 · SP $13.00 · Robert Faehr

Peaceful Prince draws the inside barrier which should allow him to secure a good position in the run. The removal of blinkers could help him settle better in a fast-tempo race. Rising in class is the main concern, but the barrier advantage compensates.

3rd pick3rd
6Fabulous Hoffa

Our price $5.00 · SP $7.50 · Micheal Mc Donald

Fabulous Hoffa brings excellent track and distance credentials (2-1-2 from 6 starts) and recent form is solid with a 3rd placing last start. His running style as a backmarker should be suited by the projected fast tempo, though he'll need luck from midfield.

Value pick8th
9The Boi

Our price $6.00 · SP $4.80 · Shane Mc Govern

While he's rising significantly in class, he drops 3kg from his last win and has proven his ability at this track and distance.
