Eagle Farm R1 – 3yo Maiden Handicap 1500m
CABOCHE was not beaten all that far at Kensington last start. Chris Waller brings him north and finds a winnable race.
IMADGIC has the speed to use inside gate and lead these or get perfect sit with cover behind the pace. Two placings leading into this and a win looks close.
BUMP’N’RUN has been placed in all three starts. He has shown his versatility handling all conditions and would not be surprised to see him win this.
The run of MR DUDWEY was better than finishing position suggests at Sunshine Coast last start. Placed at prior start and cannot leave him out of multiples.
Tip: CABOCHE
Eagle Farm R2 – Maiden Handicap 1600m
ENTERPRISE MIA was beaten by her barrier at Sunshine Coast first-up. She did well to get within a length of winner. Drawn perfectly and second-up she will be right in the mix.
KITTYKITTYBANGBANG has been racing well enough this time in but just not getting close enough to threaten. Would not be surprised to see her right in the mix.
IDLING BY has been placed in first three starts this prep then was only getting going late last start. Finds winnable race and she had drawn perfectly.
LOVE DEMON comes into this ready third-up from spell. Been bit one paced in both runs back but not far away. Barrier is a concern.
Tip: ENTERPRISE MIA
Eagle Farm R3 – BM65 Handicap 2237m
BOMBAY NIGHTS looked impressive winning at Ipswich two starts back then may just have gone bit too hard when tired last start. She looks leader and takes catching.
KHAALIS finished the race of powerfully to win at Doomben two starts back then was good at Ipswich last start. Watch for him to be powering home final stages.
LINCOLN TOWN led them up for long way at Gold Coast last start and expect he will try similar tactics again. Would not leave him out of multiples.
MOTAMAYIZ has been threatening to win a race of late with two sound placings. Only needs to hold the consistent form to feature.
Tip: BOMBAY NIGHTS
Eagle Farm R4 – Class 1 Handicap 1000m
FETCH had no luck here first-up from spell when only got going final 200m after racing greenly. Better from the outing and from ideal barrier she gets chance to return to winners stall.
RALPH’S HONOUR is resuming from spell. She got her maiden out of the way at first Queensland start since moving from Victoria. This a winnable race and she looks well placed.
VIRTUOUS MISS gave them a galloping lesson at Doomben last start. She comes into this third-up and no reason cannot win again.
QUEEN SWEEPER is another first-up from break. She is yet to miss a place in any of her three first-up tries and must include based on that stat alone.
Tip: FETCH
Eagle Farm R5 – BM65 Handicap 1800m
BLACKLOG chased home strongly and just missed at Ipswich last start. This does not look any harder and he gets chance to go one better.
THINK HIGH has been racing well winning two straight before dropping out at the Gold Coast last start. Prepared to forgive one bad run and he can bounce back.
KARLSTAD comes into this off a couple of solid placings. Drawn a little awkwardly but he will go forward and make own luck in first couple and will take catching.
KIRKEBY got his maiden out of the way two back then was not beaten all that far last start. He is never far away and can measure up to this.
Tip: BLACKLOG
Eagle Farm R6 – BM75 Handicap 1200m
INGEAR led them up to win here first-up then last start she did not find the lead and bound one too speedy. Looking for her to lead this and she will be the one to catch.
THE BIG GOODBYE finished too well to get the job done he on Saturday. On the quick back up and no reason he cannot make it two in a row.
KUDU resumes from spell. He won when first-up last time in work and raced competitively throughout campaign. Must include.
VALIANT looked in need of the run when dropped out after racing on the speed. That was first run after a year and he will be much better from the outing.
Tip: INGEAR
Eagle Farm R7 – Quality Handicap 1000m
SIMPLY FLY finished the race off solidly behind Le Palmier first-up from spell. He is sure to be better from the outing and meets Le Palmier much better at the weights.
LE PALMIER jumped to the front and controlled the race holding off late challengers last start. Drawn to drive through and lead and is the one to catch again.
Have high opinion of KISUKANO and excited to see her returning from a spell. She has won two of three fresh and comes off solid trial win. She will run well.
KYLEASE is another fresh from a spell. She has plenty of early speed and if she can roll along in first couple will take running down last 200m.
Tip: SIMPLY FLY
Eagle Farm R8 – BM68 Handicap 1400m
HEAVEN AMORE finished off too well to get the prize at Doomben third-up from spell. She has been racing in consistent form and that was a well-deserved win. She can win again.
Liked the way BROKEN HERO finished the race off at Doomben last start. He has been racing in consistent form previously and he will be hitting the line hard again.
OSSABUCO finished too well to get the job done at Gold Coast two back then he was not disgraced last start. Must include in this.
FIREBOX has early speed and can see him either leading or sitting in first couple. If he can get right run he will take some catching.
