Another quality nine-race program is on offer this Saturday at Eagle Farm.
Some showers around Brisbane has the track currently rated in the Soft 5 range with the rail out 2.5m across the circuit.
To help you find a winner, we’ve run the rule over the entire meeting below.
Compelling Truth opened his prep with back-to-back wins on the country tracks before heading to Randwick earlier in the month where he was far from disgraced off a wide run.
The son of I Am Invincible finished midfield beaten nearly three lengths, a solid effort that also suggested he might be looking for further now.
Mack Griffith’s gelding does have another tricky draw to contend with, but with a slight chance of a wet track and Michael Rodd steering, I think he’ll be right up there in the finish.
Intentional Lass looks ready to run a nice race third-up out to the mile.
She’s untried over this trip, but did give a nice sight over 1400m a couple of weeks ago at Grafton when making up decent ground off a wide run in transit under Andrew Mallyon.
The fact the pair combine again here is a big plus, while we’ve also seen her handle some sting out of the track in the past. This is tougher back to metro level, but if she gets the right race on speed, she’ll be a threat.
Schmoozer is a talented five-year-old by Eurozone who so far has held his own nicely at Saturday grade.
Steve Tregea’s galloper has found the money in back-to-back attempts here at Eagle Farm leading in, stepping up to tackle the mile nearly four weeks ago where he led for most of the trip before being run down.
Off that, I think getting back to 1400m is ideal, especially now that he’s spent a good chunk of time lugging some big weight around.
Plenty to like about Zouna stepping back to 1000m coming off an eye-catching win on debut over further a few weeks ago.
The promising two-year-old was backed late, and punters were rewarded not long after with the son of Zousain charging into the clear out wide to win by close to 2.5 lengths in the end.
He looks to be a progressive type, and since he handled the soft conditions well that day, it’s fair to expect more of the same from the inside gate this time.
Malaboom has been kept on the fresh side for her runner-up effort over the same trip on Australia Day at Warwick Farm.
The Spirit Of Boom filly really hasn’t run a poor race in five starts, cashing a cheque on four occasions and proving herself handy in all conditions.
She’s had a nice trial at Goulburn to keep her sharp for this, while there’s a bit to like about the form to come out of her recent efforts.
James Orman pilots on this occasion and is likely to get forward early from the low gate and test his luck on speed.
Apophis is a lightly-raced five-year-old worth keeping an eye on out of the Lindsay Gough yard.
He hasn’t done a ton of racing so far, but there was plenty to like about his first-up effort last month over the track and trip where he ran down the leader Tikka Ready with an explosive turn of foot.
Four wins from six starts tells you all you need to know, and as we’ve seen, he absolutely flies fresh. With a trial between starts and Georgia Cartwright sticking in the irons, he’s more than capable of handling this step up in grade.
Outlawed boasts a likeable second-up record coming off what was a slightly disappointing fresh effort earlier in the month behind Kanazawa.
Robert Heathcote’s mare led for most of the way before weakening over the final stages, a run she should improve on considering she was tackling 1200m fresh from a long break.
This is an easier race despite the extra weight, and she should have no trouble landing on the speed again from the low draw.
Rockribbed has made the journey up from Melbourne after changing hands from Aaron Laing to Tony Gollan.
We haven’t seen him since last August where he finished down the order at Sandown, but his recent trial at Doomben suggests he might run a nice race fresh, which certainly wouldn’t be out of the ordinary for him.
Only lightly-raced for a six-year-old, he does have an awkward gate to contend with, but he was seen doing his best work out wide in said trial couple of weeks ago.
Proven over the trip with the winkers off for the first time, he looks a good value play in an open race.
Daytona Bay ticks a few important boxes deep into his prep.
He was super brave up on the speed on the Gold Coast two weeks ago when denied only narrowly in his final few strides by Red Top over further, while the start prior saw him finish runner-up over the mile at Doomben.
He’s plenty fit though and probably better suited back in trip, not to mention he’s carrying a few kg’s less under James Orman. From a perfect draw, he looks deserving of the short price on offer.
