Nifty's Treasure has shown ability with four third placings but is yet to break through. She has never raced on a soft track, which is a concern. Risk/reward play.

Our price $8.00 · SP $8.00 · Georgina Cartwright

She trialed well recently and her jockey is in excellent form. The wide draw is a concern but she can settle midfield and finish off.

Summer Ready is a tough mare who has placed many times without winning. She drops back to maiden grade and is second-up, which should suit. If she handles the surface she can fill a minor placing.

Tuki Twelve has the best C&D credentials in this field, having won over this track and distance two starts back in BM58 company. He drops back to the same grade today and is drawn to get a comfortable run on pace. Despite a moderate soft track record, the Ipswich surface rides like Good, so that's not a major concern.

Our price $10.00 · SP $9.50 · Mark Du Plessis

That run suggests she is coming back to form. She now drops to BM58, her preferred grade, and gets the services of Mark Du Plessis. She has plenty of experience at Ipswich.

Gambino has been racing consistently, placing in three of his last four. Barrier 2 provides an ideal draw to sit handy in a race likely lacking speed. The Schweida stable produces reliable runners, and Gambino handles Soft going.

Our price $8.00 · SP $12.00 · McKenzie Apel

Nails And Pride comes off a dominant victory at Gatton and can take up the running in a slow-paced race. However, his Ipswich form is poor and the weight rise is a query.

Lumens Lenny drops to BM65 after running in Class 5. He has a strong overall Ipswich record but is yet to win at 1350m. The jockey is riding well and he maps to be handy.

Our price $12.00 · SP $10.00 · Dan Mc Gillivray

Minor Key is the value runner. He has an Ipswich win, handles soft ground, and draws barrier 1 to get the perfect run. While his win rate is low, his recent 4th in a Doomben Class 1 suggests he is not far off.

Our price $2.50 · SP $1.90 · Robbie Dolan

Metal Man is the class runner of the race, dropping from BM65 to Class 1 after a solid first-up third on Good 4. The main concern is his lack of wet track form, but Ipswich on Soft rides close to Good, and his early speed should put him in the perfect forward position. Despite the negative jockey-trainer stats, his overall profile makes him the most likely winner.

Our price $6.00 · SP $10.00 · Bella Youngberry

Boomshanka is well suited in this grade drop from Class 2, and has shown she can handle Ipswich 1200m on Soft. The addition of blinkers is a positive gear change that may help her settle closer and produce a better finish.
