top pick wonanother tip wonno tip won
Her latest Moruya second was the strongest clock effort in this line-up, making ground late from off the speed. She has already won at this track and trip, settles in the first few which is where Queanbeyan soft-track winners come from, and she handles rain-affected ground. The stop-start win record is the only knock, but everything else points to her.
A consistent on-pace/midfield mare who saves her best for this track and soft ground — she ran a gutsy second here over 1200m on a soft surface two runs back. Her latest Nowra effort can be forgiven as she was caught three-wide throughout. The jockey and trainer are a potent pairing, and she maps to get the right run just off the speed. Clear second pick.
The pacemaker and the one who benefits most from the likely slow tempo.
The value angle in the race. He is an improving on-pace type who has already won on soft and placed on a heavy track, and he should lob into the box seat behind the leader, which is precisely where Queanbeyan soft-track winners come from.

| Scr | 7 | Zeema | 1 | Frank Cleary | 55kg |
Lightly raced filly who has been competing well beyond this grade, including a close second in a two-year-old feature on heavy going. First-up after a spell is the query, but she maps to sit handy from barrier one with bottom weight over a trip and surface that reward on-pace runners. On class and wet-track evidence she is the one to beat.
Consistent three-year-old who has been hitting the line well, including a placed effort on soft ground at Canberra. He gets back in his races though, and Queanbeyan heavily favours runners on or near the speed, so he will need a clean run and some luck. Strong place claims if the leaders overdo it.
Veteran maiden who has been racing consistently and maps to lead from the front, a style that historically goes well here on soft ground. The obvious knock is a long run of outs and a wide draw, but he has the tactical speed to control this and looks a solid place hope at worst.
Second-up four-year-old who took a clear step forward last start, running on well on a soft track at Moruya. The blinkers go on for the first time and he is fitter for the outing.

Track-and-trip specialist who has won both her Queanbeyan starts over this distance, including a last-start success here on a Soft 5. She drops out of stronger company, lands in a race where the stable excels, and maps to sit handy in a race that traditionally favours the on-pace types. Consistency is the query, but on form and map she is the one to beat.
She is drawn to save ground, but she steps up in class and distance for the first time and settles back, an unenviable profile at a track that strongly rewards on-pace runners.
Consistent front-runner who should take up the running from a handy draw, which is exactly the profile this track rewards. She has a sound soft-ground record and drops in grade, but she has never figured at this distance and has weakened late in her last two starts. Leading is an asset, yet the step to 1460m leaves her vulnerable late.
Consistent on-pace mare who rarely runs a bad race but struggles to get her nose in front, with just one win from sixteen. She is drawn to sit handy in a race where that is a clear advantage, and she has form on rain-affected ground.

Won last start at this exact grade over a soft track, closing hard from midfield, and she has the strongest wet-track foundation in the race. Nick Olive's stable strikes at nearly half its runners here and the jockey is riding in form. She does settle off the pace, which the Queanbeyan soft-track pattern discourages, but her class and fitness edge are decisive.
He has two wins from six soft-track starts and is consistent. The query is the mile, where he is yet to win, and he was run down when leading last time.
Ran second at this grade on a soft Moruya track last start, beaten under two lengths, and is a model of consistency. The jockey has a fine record on her and she is proven on wet ground. She does settle off the speed though, and Queanbeyan soft-track racing has been unkind to horses coming from behind.
Lightly raced and gets the perfect inside draw with a featherweight, likely to be handy on a track that rewards early speed. His trainer and jockey both have sound strike rates and he has run well on rain-affected ground.

The track specialist. Nine goes here for a bundle of placings at exactly this trip, and last start he led at Canberra before holding on for a close third. From gate six he should control the tempo, which is exactly the profile this circuit rewards.
Problem is the form: no placing in four runs and he has been comfortably beaten at his last two. He is being asked to improve sharply, and while the draw and style make him dangerous, he looks shorter than he deserves.
The clear form horse of the field. Placed in six of fourteen and twice a closing second at tougher Showcase level, including a narrow defeat in the Wagga mud. He drops in grade, has no issue with the give in the ground and stays the trip. The only real query is the wide draw, which asks him to settle off the pace on a track that rewards on-speed runners. Still the one to beat.
She maps to race on the pace, which is precisely the profile that wins here, and her recent trial and second-up run suggest she is learning her craft.

She drops out of stronger company and brings clearly the best recent form lines, her Wagga effort being the pick of that meeting despite a wide trip. She won on soft ground over 1400m two starts back and gets a strong rider. Query is her get-back style at a track that favours on-pace runners, but her quality should be enough.
A genuine wet-tracker with two soft-track wins and a heavy-track victory to his name, and his recent 1400m form on rain-affected ground is the strongest in the race over the trip. The negatives are a 49-day freshen-up and a wide gate in 12, but he gets back anyway and will be charging late. If the leaders overdo it up front, he is the one finishing hardest.
She won on soft ground and was close-up in a BM58 at Coffs when caught wide. The rise from C1 company into this grade is the main query, but she looks set for it.
His trainer is a regular winner at this track.

He was beaten under two lengths in a stronger race at Canberra last start after racing wide throughout, and he has already won here over this trip. Top weight and an inside gate are the concerns, but with two leaders likely to go hard early his strong finishing burst can prove decisive.
A natural front-runner who should be able to control the race from a good gate. Leaders have a clear advantage at Queanbeyan over 1000m and he has placed regularly on soft going, so the conditions play to his strengths. The knock is the long break since his last run and a fresh record without a win, plus a rider short on recent success.
An improving young filly who drops out of Class 1 company and arrives with a light weight. She had enough speed to lead and stick on for third at this track on soft ground last start and her recent efforts stack up well against this field. The wide draw is the query, but if she crosses cleanly she is a major threat.
She is a soft-track winner who races on the speed and gets a nice draw in six, and her effort to lead and fight on at Gundagai in stronger company reads well.
