The gelding has drawn perfectly in barrier 4 for Doomben's 1350m start and gets the services of top jockey Ryan Maloney. The significant gear changes including blinkers again suggest improvement is expected, and the inside barriers advantage at Doomben should suit his tactical speed.
Slipsain brings solid credentials with a placing at this track and distance. His first-up record shows he can perform fresh, and the inside draw at Doomben is advantageous. Daniel Moor is a quality jockey who should give him every chance. While he's yet to win, his consistency suggests he'll be in the finish, though the 60kg impost is a concern at this track where weight can be telling.
Second-up today and drawn perfectly in barrier 2, which is crucial at Doomben's 1350m start. The lightweight of 55.5kg is advantageous, and Andrew Mallyon is a capable rider.
The inside draw at Doomben is advantageous, and Jag Guthmann-Chester is a capable rider.

Torque To Be Sure brings the strongest form credentials, dropping dramatically from Group level racing to a maiden. Second-up today with a proven record in this pattern, he should appreciate the fast tempo predicted and has the class edge to overcome the wide barrier.
Wootten Hyde brings solid credentials with 2 placings from 3 career starts, including both previous runs at Doomben. Returns first-up but has been competitive fresh before. The inside barrier draw is a significant advantage at this track and distance, and his consistent form suggests he'll be right in the finish again. Slightly outclassed by the top selection.
Lady Milan gets the coveted inside barrier which is crucial at Doomben. The disappointing last run is a concern, but the return to a good track and the perfect draw give her strong claims for a placing in this field.
The favorable barrier draw at Doomben is significant, and the lightweight gives her an advantage.

Celtic Brave brings the strongest recent form credentials with a close 2nd at Ipswich 19 days ago. The perfect inside draw is significant at Doomben's 1200m start, and he should be able to utilize tactical speed to settle on pace.
Crash The Party comes into this second-up after a solid 4th at Ipswich. The filly has previously placed at Doomben and gets an advantageous barrier 5 draw. The gear change (blinkers off, tongue tie on) could spark improvement.
While the wide barrier is concerning at Doomben, her raw ability and experience give her strong claims. She's been competitive in much stronger races and has placed twice from 8 starts. The booking of Robbie Dolan is another positive for this consistent filly.
With two 3rd placings from three starts, he's shown ability without breaking through.

His record at the distance (9: 1-2-2) shows consistency, and he'll be perfectly positioned from barrier 2 to take advantage of Doomben's on-pace favoring layout. The recent heavy track win indicates versatility, and the Maher stable knows how to place their runners.
His perfect record at Doomben over this distance (1: 1-0-0) is a significant advantage, and his form is clearly improving. The Bayliss trainer/jockey combination works well, and he should settle midfield with enough tactical speed to position well despite barrier 7.
The Edmonds stable is placing this gelding well, and despite the class rise, his progressive profile and weight advantage (56kg) make him a genuine contender from barrier 5.
While unproven at this distance, his racing pattern suggests he'll handle it, and barrier 4 gives him options to settle midfield.

Has won at Doomben previously and performs well at this distance with a win and a third from three attempts. Well-drawn in barrier 7 for Angela Jones and gets in with a manageable 58kg. The Gollan stable is firing and this mare should get an ideal run just off the speed.
Rich Minx brings solid credentials with 3 wins from 7 attempts at this distance and a previous win at Doomben. The wide barrier is a concern at Doomben's tight 1110m start, but she has tactical speed to overcome it. The 59.5kg is a significant impost, but her class and consistency make her a major player despite the weight.
Cutepi has drawn perfectly in barrier 1 which is a significant advantage at Doomben's tight 1110m start. Her recent form includes a win at Ballina and a close 2nd at Gold Coast over similar distances. Andrew Mallyon takes the ride and from the inside gate, she should get an economical run.
While the barrier is a concern, he has tactical speed to overcome it.

North Pole brings excellent recent form, finishing a close second last start at this track and distance on a Heavy 8. His second-up record is outstanding with 2 starts for 2 thirds, and he's proven at Doomben with 2 starts for a second and third. The very fast tempo should suit his racing pattern, and despite barrier 14, he should get a good run with the inside bias. Well-weighted and perfectly placed by trainer Kelly Schweida.
Abender brings strong credentials as a second-up performer from the powerful Gollan stable. His track record at Doomben is excellent with 3 starts for 1 win and 2 thirds, and he handles heavy going well. Last start he ran a solid third in a Class 1, and while this represents a class rise, he's drawn perfectly in barrier 7 to take advantage of the inside bias. Ryan Maloney aboard is a significant positive.
Miss Funny Honey is lightly raced but highly promising with 2 starts for 1 win and 1 second. She's first-up from a spell but won on debut, suggesting she can perform fresh. Her last start second at this track and distance is a strong form reference, and she gets the perfect draw in barrier 1 to take advantage of the inside bias. Jake Bayliss retains the ride, which is a positive sign from the stable.
Her soft track record is outstanding with 6 starts for 3 wins and 1 third, and she's drawn perfectly in barrier 6 to take advantage of the inside bias. Boris Thornton stays aboard after their last-start success, and the mare should get a perfect run in midfield.

Progressive 3yo filly who was impressive winning over this track/distance last start in heavy conditions. Has shown ability on all surfaces and is perfectly placed second-up with a good draw.
Consistent mare who has been knocking on the door with consecutive seconds. Carries topweight but has the class to overcome it. Drawn awkwardly but has tactical speed to overcome the barrier.
Mare with strong recent form including a 3rd last start at this track. Unproven at the distance but her racing pattern suggests it will suit. Represents each-way value.
Mare who has been racing consistently with consecutive seconds at her last two starts. Gets in well with a 3kg claim and has drawn perfectly for Doomben. Has placed at this track and distance previously and drops significantly in weight.

The 4YO gelding has a consistent profile with 5 placings from 9 starts and performs well second-up. Well-weighted with 56.5kg and drawn ideally in barrier 5, he should get a perfect run in transit. The step up to 1630m looks suitable based on his previous 1800m form.
He'sgotthesay brings excellent distance credentials with a win and two seconds from three attempts at similar trips. The 4YO gelding has been racing consistently with a strong 2nd last start at Sunshine Coast. While stepping up in class, he's shown progressive improvement with each run and gets the services of Damien Thornton. The barrier (10) is a slight concern at Doomben, but his tactical speed should allow him to find a position.
The 4YO gelding is dropping significantly in class and has a good record at Doomben with a placing from three attempts. Cejay Graham retains the ride and from barrier 9 should get a nice trailing position.
The 4YO gelding has won at this distance previously and gets the services of Jake Bayliss. While stepping up significantly in class, he's well-weighted with 57kg and drawn ideally in barrier 6.
