Lecan brings the strongest form credentials with a close 2nd last start over this distance at Gatton. With a perfect record at the distance (1-1-0 from 2 starts) and a good draw, he maps to get an ideal run. The step up in class is offset by his progressive profile and weight advantage.
Brooklyn Daisy brings reliability with an excellent place record of 5 seconds and 4 thirds from 15 starts. Her Toowoomba form is solid with 2 seconds and 2 thirds from 6 attempts. The mare is dropping in class from her last start and has shown she handles this distance range well. The wide barrier is a concern on this tight track, but her early speed should allow her to overcome it.
Her Toowoomba record is excellent with a win and a second from just two starts. The rise in class is a query, but she appears to be an improving mare with more to offer.
She carries just 51kg and has extensive experience at this track with 1 win, 5 seconds and 5 thirds from 50 starts.

Bluish Hue brings strong credentials dropping significantly in class after a solid 2nd placing at this track two weeks ago. The inside draw is perfect for Toowoomba's tight turning track, and his tactical versatility should allow him to settle in a forward position. Has proven ability at this venue and appears well-placed to break through in this Class 1 event.
Toute Sweet is the quintessential place chance with an excellent record at this track (12: 1-5-2). Coming off a solid 3rd in the same class two weeks ago, he gets in with just 51kg which is a significant advantage.
Johnny The Kid brings metropolitan form to this provincial race, representing a significant class drop.
Worldy Spirit represents excellent value after breaking through for a maiden win last start. The improving form pattern (2-1 in last two starts) suggests a horse on the up, and the inside draw suits Toowoomba's tight turning track.

Proven at the distance with a 2nd and 3rd from 3 attempts and handles Good tracks. Barrier 10 is the only slight concern but has the tactical speed to overcome it.
American Conquest showed promise on debut with a 4th at Sunshine Coast over this distance. Well-drawn in barrier 3 and likely to be on-pace which suits Toowoomba's leader-favoring track configuration.
Second-up from a spell with natural improvement expected and perfectly drawn in barrier 2 to utilize early speed on this leader-favoring track. Represents each-way value.
First-up from a spell but has shown ability fresh. The significant weight advantage (55.5kg) is a plus, and while Toowoomba favors leaders, his strong finishing ability could see him run over the top if the pace is genuine. Represents outstanding each-way value.

Second-up now with natural improvement expected, he's drawn to get a nice trail from barrier 13 in a race with fast tempo. The K. Kemp-trained gelding handles Good tracks well and has the class edge in this field.
Heroic Delaneys is showing progressive form, finishing a solid 3rd last start at Gatton over 1400m. The mare draws perfectly in barrier 4 which is crucial at Toowoomba's tight-turning track. With a 2.5kg weight advantage over the top selection and Brandon Lerena aboard, she's well-positioned to challenge for the win in this maiden.
Haberfield brings valuable experience with 9 career starts including a 2nd placing two runs back over this distance. The mare has a good record at Toowoomba with 1 placing from 4 starts and gets in with just 54kg.

That's An Extra brings the strongest credentials with a terrific record at Toowoomba (7: 3-1-0) and consistent recent form. The first-time blinkers could provide further improvement, and Leslie Tilley knows this horse well. Perfectly suited to the track's on-pace favoring pattern.
Kingsland has a perfect record at Toowoomba with 2 wins from 4 starts and performs well on good tracks. This 4yo gelding is still improving and should get a good run from barrier 4. The 49-day freshen-up is a slight concern, but his track record suggests he'll handle the rise in class. Brooke Stower is a positive jockey booking for a horse that should settle midfield in a race with good tempo.
His first-up record is excellent (4: 2-0-0) and he performs well on good tracks. While untested at this distance, the 4yo gelding has a good barrier and should be able to utilize his early speed. The cross-over nose band returns which may help him settle better in the run.
While the 144-day break is a concern, her fresh record suggests she can fire first-up, and trainer Mark Currie knows how to prepare a horse to win fresh.

Her 3rd placing last start over 1400m suggests she's ready for this distance rise, and she maps to get an ideal on-pace position from barrier 2. The light weight of 54.5kg is another significant advantage on this leader-favoring circuit.
Imagina showed her aptitude for this course when finishing a close 2nd over 2000m here two weeks ago. She's building nicely toward a win and has the right racing pattern to be effective at Toowoomba. While barrier 8 isn't ideal, she should be able to find a midfield position and use her proven stamina in the closing stages.
Duke Of Bantry has been knocking on the door with two second placings and a recent 4th over 2000m at this track. Maps to get a good midfield position and should be strong through the line.
She showed her potential with a strong 2nd placing two starts back over 1625m and has experience at this track. While she finished 6th last start over 2000m, she wasn't disgraced and should improve second-up over this trip.
