Sunshine Coast Cup Day<\/strong> takes centre stage this Saturday and shapes as an ideal way to kick off the long weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of Queensland\u2019s standout provincial meetings, the card is headlined by the feature Cup and backed up by a strong supporting program featuring a mix of reliable performers and progressive types on the way up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rail is in the true position and with a few showers forecast, the track is likely to play in the Soft range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With conditions set and the form holding together well, it looks a meeting worth getting involved in.<\/p>\n\n\n

Race 1 – QTIS Two-Year-Old Handicap (1000 METRES) <\/div>\n
No. 1 Star Of Jamaica <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

STAR OF JAMAICA (1)<\/strong> was popular on debut over this trip at Eagle Farm following an encouraging trial win, but plenty went wrong.<\/p>\n

The Chris and Corey Munce-trained colt missed the start badly before over-racing to sit outside the leader, which told late when he was run down to finish second, beaten just over two lengths.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s been given time to freshen up and returned with a tidy trial win leading into this.<\/p>\n

From a good draw, Ryan Maloney should be able to have him much better positioned.<\/p>\n

\n
Tip of The Day<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

ENTERPRISE PRIVATE (4)<\/strong> is flying and chasing a hat-trick of wins.<\/p>\n

The Kris Lees-trained gelding caused an upset two runs back when storming home at Murwillumbah, then backed it up last start with a strong win over this trip at Doomben, letting down well to score by just over a length.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s fully fit, proven at the track and distance, and his only previous run here resulted in a dominant win by more than four lengths.<\/p>\n

The 4kg rise is a consideration, but he still profiles well and maps to get a soft run.<\/p>\n

No. 5 Diamond Epic <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

DIAMOND EPIC (5)\u00a0<\/span><\/b>found the line well last start at Eagle Farm but the 59.5kg pulled her down late and she finished 1.14 lengths fifth.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Renita Beaton-trained mare stormed home despite an unclear path to win\u00a0over this course and distance by 1.81 lengths.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Given weight was a problem last start, Beaton has astutely booked 3kg claimer Jai Williams.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

SIRKEL (13)<\/span><\/b>\u00a0kicked off this preparation on a winning note over this distance at\u00a0Doomben.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Jack Bruce then tried\u00a0the\u00a0So You Think mare over 1350m at\u00a0Doomben\u00a0and twice over\u00a01400m\u00a0here where she ran well to place on two occasions.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A drop back to this distance\u00a0last start\u00a0saw her return to the winner\u2019s stall at Eagle Farm where she displayed a nice turn of foot to\u00a0salute narrowly.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

She strikes a similar race and will be aided by a decent speed.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

No. 6 Quothquan <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

QUOTHQUAN (6)<\/strong> resumed in a stronger race over 1400m at Eagle Farm and hit the line well.<\/p>\n

The John Dann-trained gelding settled back before finishing off solidly into fourth, beaten just over two lengths.<\/p>\n

He\u2019ll be better for the run and the rise to a mile looks ideal given he won second-up last preparation.<\/p>\n

While this is his first run at the Sunshine Coast, the spacious circuit should suit his racing pattern.<\/p>\n

Each Way<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

CARBONARA (5)<\/strong> has been in excellent form this preparation and is chasing three straight wins.<\/p>\n

After stringing together a series of seconds, the Rob Heathcote-trained filly broke through at Ipswich with a dominant maiden win before heading to Eagle Farm and leading throughout to score again.<\/p>\n

Vlad Duric retains the ride and from the inside draw, she should be able to take full advantage.<\/p>\n

The James Healey-trained mare enters this race on the back of a slick win over\u00a01200m\u00a0here\u00a0where she\u00a0put them away easily for a 2.13 length victory.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

She\u2019ll\u00a0strip fitter and won third-up last preparation by just over three lengths\u00a0when taking on this course and distance for her one and only time.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

No. 6 Anemacore <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

ANEMACORE (6)<\/strong> went down narrowly last start but lost no admirers.<\/p>\n

Settling well back from a wide draw in the Listed Lough Neagh Stakes, the Shaun Dwyer-trained gelding charged home to finish third, beaten a length by Rockribbed, who he meets 4kg better here in the Sunshine Coast Cup field<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Prior to that, he recorded consecutive wins at Doomben and Eagle Farm.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s unbeaten at the Sunshine Coast, finishing in the quinella at all four runs here.<\/p>\n

\n

HELL (4)<\/strong> delivered his best run last start since joining the Tony Gollan yard.<\/p>\n

He mustered quickly to take up the lead at Eagle Farm and had plenty in reserve to score by over a length.<\/p>\n

Things didn\u2019t fall his way earlier in the prep when he couldn\u2019t cross easily, but that looks less of an issue here.<\/p>\n

With Jai Williams claiming 3kg, he should be able to roll forward and prove hard to run down.<\/p>\n

\n

YOYO YEEZY (14)<\/strong> had no luck on debut, suffering from the thumps and poor recovery, but has gone on with it in impressive fashion since.<\/p>\n

The Matt Hoysted-trained gelding has won three straight, including back-to-back victories over this course and distance.<\/p>\n

He showed toughness last start after missing the kick slightly and sitting outside the leader before kicking again.<\/p>\n

If he jumps cleanly and finds the front, he\u2019ll be difficult to catch.<\/p>\n
