Sunshine Coast tips and results

Our price $3.50 · SP $5.00 · Boris Thornton

Summer Vibe brings the strongest credentials among the debutants with Matt Hoysted and Boris Thornton combining at a 25% strike rate. The horse has shown enough trialling to sprint well fresh, and barrier 5 provides a perfect spot to settle handy. The heavy track introduces unknown, but the inside draw and likely positive map make it the horse to beat.

Our price $4.50 · SP $10.00 · Cejay Graham

If She Dares has been ultra-consistent in jump-outs, never missing a place. The Munce stable is reliable and Cejay Graham knows the track. From barrier 6 she can land in the first half of the field and be finishing strongly. The heavy track is a test, but her trial on Soft 6 suggests some adaptability.

Our price $12.00 · SP $31.00 · Frederick Larson

Wild Butterfly is the forgotten runner with a genuine heavy-track trial win at this track. With many untested on wet, her Soft 7 trial success offers a crucial pointer. Drawn well and lugging only 55.5kg, she can roll forward and take catching.

Our price $3.20 · SP $2.80 · Ryan Maloney

Montesquieu brings the most reliable maiden form, having placed in both his starts beyond 1300m, including a narrow third on rain-affected ground. He maps to lead or sit handy, and the step to 2200m with blinkers off could unlock further improvement.

Our price $8.50 · SP $14.00 · Bailey Wheeler

I'm On Fire's strong placing at this track last time and his superior closing speed give him claims.

Our price $9.00 · SP $13.00 · Danny Peisley

Luminized has shown enough at a similar level to be competitive, especially on rain-affected going. From barrier 2 he can sit on the speed and control the race.

Our price $3.50 · SP $3.50 · Ryan Maloney

Overoptomystic produced a strong debut second at Warwick on soft going, beaten less than a length. From barrier 4, he can lead or sit handy and map perfectly for a track that favours those in the first three at the 400m.

Our price $3.80 · SP $2.50 · Taylor Marshall

Though she races back in the field, an inside gate gives her a chance to avoid traffic. Second up, she should be fitter after a solid fourth and rates a strong winning chance.

Our price $8.00 · SP $18.00 · Stephanie Tierney

Bonnie Bouquet has an impeccable soft track record with two placings from two attempts. Her jockey excels at Sunshine Coast and she drops in weight.

Our price $5.00 · SP $13.00 · Nick Heywood

Miss Mclaren has been a soft-track revelation, with two authoritative wins on rain-affected ground. Her last-start fifth in stronger company was honest and she drops back to Class 2 where she can sit off a likely hot tempo and unleash her finishing burst.

Our price $6.00 · SP $6.50 · Ben E Thompson

Impact Zone is a genuine wet-track improver who gets the perfect set-up from the inside lane. He can lead or sit handy and has the racing pattern to hold off challengers if he gets a soft lead.

Our price $4.50 · SP $2.80 · Montana Philpot

Trevatt Court boasts a genuine track and distance record, and she drops sharply in grade. The wide gate is a concern, but with a likely fast tempo she can storm home. The apprentice claim provides a feather weight, but she'll need luck to overcome the outside draw.

Our price $5.20 · SP $8.00 · Ben E Thompson

The concern is her poor second-up stats, but the raw speed she showed suggests she can feature at value.

Our price $5.00 · SP $4.80 · Leah Martyn

Busker looks the natural leader and his record at Sunshine Coast over 1400m — where he broke his maiden — entitles him to respect. He's been honest without winning of late but is well placed to run a big race if allowed to roll in front.

Our price $9.00 · SP $12.00 · Jaden Lloyd

A thoroughly consistent performer who rarely runs a bad race. Drawn the inside alley, he should enjoy a soft run just behind the speed. One for exotic players.

Our price $5.00 · SP $9.00 · Jett Newman

Ikasara drops sharply in grade from metropolitan Group and Listed contests. His best would win this, but his overall record is modest and the soft ground remains a slight query. From an ideal barrier, he can control the tempo and prove hard to catch.

Our price $15.00 · SP $11.00 · Jaden Lloyd

His recent runs have been against decent BM68 company, and he is often underestimated.

Our price $8.00 · SP $9.00 · Jett Newman

Kaazi brings two wins at this trip on rain-affected going, and he drops sharply in class. The wide draw is the main hurdle, but if Jett Newman can slot him in midfield or take a sit, he possesses a strong finish.
