The step up to 1400m is the main query, but her strong finishing burst last start suggests she'll handle it. Clearly the one to beat.

Her 5th placing last start was solid, and the addition of a tongue tie could help her breathing and overall performance. The wide barrier is the main concern, but if she can find cover midfield, her strong finishing burst gives her place claims in this field.
Van De Ban brings consistent form to this race with a solid 5th placing just 8 days ago. The quick backup suggests he's at peak fitness, and the step up to 1400m should suit his racing pattern.

Has shown consistent form with a 3rd placing from 3 starts and is drawn perfectly in barrier 5 to secure a midfield position in what should be a fast-tempo race. The step up to 1400m looks ideal based on his finishing efforts, and he appears to be improving with each run.
The Jack Bruce-trained runner is likely to be forward in the run from barrier 11, which could be advantageous in a fast-tempo race. Boris Thornton is an experienced jockey who should give this first-starter every chance.
Cavascot has shown consistent form with two 4th placings from as many starts. The Kris Lees-trained mare is well-drawn in barrier 7 and gets the services of experienced jockey Matthew Palmer. The step up to 1400m looks suitable based on her running style.
Second-up today after a solid first-up run, he should strip fitter and the removal of blinkers could help him settle better in the run. Tiffani Brooker is a quality jockey who should give him every chance from barrier 12. Has previous experience at this distance which is a plus.

Fraser-Kirk Plastic Surgery Hcp (55)
The blinkers going on first time should sharpen him up, and despite the wide barrier, he maps to get forward in a race with fast tempo. His soft track form (1-0-1 from 4 starts) suggests he'll handle the heavy conditions.
Riva D'amor has an excellent place record at this track and distance (0-2-0 from 6 starts) and performs well fresh (0-1-1 from 4 first-up starts). The inside draw will allow her to find a good position from barrier 3, and the removal of blinkers and lugging bit suggests connections are trying to help her settle better. The 55kg is a significant advantage.
Hit brings solid credentials with a strong record at this distance (1-1-1 from 6 starts) and consistent recent form including a 2nd place finish two starts back. Her midfield racing pattern should suit the predicted fast tempo, allowing her to finish strongly. While barrier 10 isn't ideal, her versatility should allow her to find a good position in running.
The slight class rise is offset by his current form and fitness, having raced just 10 days ago.

Civil Scapes Hcp (C2)
The advantageous barrier draw and versatile racing pattern should allow her to settle midfield and finish strongly in what looks to be a fast-tempo race. The class drop is the decisive factor.
Her heavy track record (1-0-0 from 3 starts) is a significant advantage in these conditions. The mare has been racing consistently with two fourth placings in her last two starts and should appreciate the drop in class, though the wide barrier is a concern.
Her consistent placing record (4 seconds from 11 starts) and strong record at this track (0-3-1 from 6 starts) suggest she'll be right in the finish. The lightweight of 52.5kg is a significant advantage on the heavy track, though she is rising in class.
Warilla Gorilla represents excellent value with a strong first-up record (1-1-0 from 3 starts) and the inside barrier draw which should be advantageous on a heavy track. His record at this distance (1-0-1 from 2 starts) is positive, and the lightweight of 56kg is ideal in these conditions.

Sherrin Rentals (Bm58)
Has the tactical versatility to handle the likely moderate-slow tempo and should get a good run from barrier 3. With proven wet track form and consistent recent performances, she stands out as the best chance.
Her record at this distance is excellent with 2 placings from 2 starts, and she thrives on soft tracks with 1 win and 3 placings from 8 starts. The wide barrier is a concern, but her staying ability should allow her to overcome it.
Wagga Wagga is second-up from a spell where he has a strong record of 3 placings from 6 starts. The Kris Lees stable is in good form, and Ryan Wiggins is a capable jockey. Main concerns are the weight and unproven track/distance record.
He's dropping in class after racing in stronger company and gets in with just 55kg. Olivia Kendal's claim is valuable, and the horse has shown ability on soft tracks with 1 win and 1 placing from 12 starts. His poor distance record is the main concern.

Ross Maclean Fellowship (Bm60)
Progressive 4YO gelding who was impressive winning over this track and distance last start. Has shown tactical versatility and strong form progression with 2 wins from his last 3 starts. The wide barrier is offset by his early speed, and he should be able to cross and settle in a prominent position. Has the right profile to handle the class rise and looks the one to beat.
Consistent 4YO gelding with excellent recent form, including a win and a close second from his last three starts. The quick 11-day backup suggests he's fit and ready to fire. Main query is his ability on a heavy track, but his overall form is too good to ignore.
Improving 4YO mare who ran a strong 3rd last start over this track and distance. The wide barrier is a concern, but she typically settles back anyway and will be running on strongly. Her track record (0-1-2 from 5 starts) suggests she's well-suited to Sunshine Coast, and she represents solid each-way value.
Experienced 5YO mare with consistent recent form, including three top-5 finishes from her last three starts. Has a good record at this track (0-1-1 from 7 starts) and is dropping in class from her last start. The quick 9-day backup suggests she's fit and ready to fire.

Symons Laxon Racing (Bm55)
The perfect barrier draw should allow her to settle in an ideal position in what looks to be a fast-tempo race. While unproven on heavy going, her soft track record (1-0-2 from 7) suggests she can handle some give in the ground.
Her barrier draw is ideal and she should get a perfect run in transit. While she's only won once from 23 starts, her place strike rate is impressive and she's rarely far away. The heavy track is the main query, but she has performed on soft going (0-1-1 from 4).
Out Of Aces resumes from a spell with an excellent first-up record and has shown ability on heavy tracks. The wide barrier and top weight are concerns, but his class should allow him to overcome these obstacles. His trainer has him ready to fire fresh based on his consistent first-up performances.
He's second-up from a spell with a good second-up record and has drawn perfectly in barrier 5.
