Doomben is the focus in Queensland on Saturday, with 10 races making up the program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The track is rated a Soft 5 at time of writing, but there’s every chance we see a downgrade with close to 11mm of rain forecast across Thursday and Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With plenty happening down south on Makybe Diva Stakes<\/a> Day at Flemington, check out our form analysis and betting strategy<\/strong> ahead of Saturday’s meeting at Doomben below!<\/p>\n\n\n

\n

Tricky race to start with SLIPSAIN (11)<\/strong> presenting the most likable case.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The son to\u00a0Zousain\u00a0has gone close on\u00a0a number of\u00a0occasions without winning, returning a place in each of his last five assignments.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

He\u2019s\u00a0been up for a while but continues to race well and\u00a0gets in\u00a0nicely here at the weights with the 2kg claim. Maps to get back around midfield and save something for the finish.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

LIVALITTLE (3)<\/strong> gets out to his preferred\u00a0trip\u00a0now coming off a handy win over the mile at Eagle Farm two weeks ago.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The gelding to The Autumn Sun left it until late to work through the gears, arriving\u00a0in the nick of time\u00a0to go half a length clear ahead of North Pole.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

He\u2019s\u00a0rock-hard fit with four runs under his belt and made a mess of his rivals over a similar distance here at\u00a0Doomben\u00a0in late January, winning by over six lengths. Providing he finds cover early from the wide gate,\u00a0he\u2019ll\u00a0be\u00a0very hard\u00a0to hold out.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The start before that came home strongly from last on the turn; 3rd of 10 in a Bm78 at Eagle Farm on August 8 over 1600m, 0.8 len behind Golden Cross with 58kg at $4.80.

BARBRAY (11)<\/strong> gets in nicely at the weights given\u00a0he\u2019s\u00a0dropping back slightly in grade.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Chris Waller\u2019s gelding will carry 56.5kg on Saturday, which is handy for a gelding that has been ultra consistent right through this prep.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The son to Zoustar won\u00a0back to back\u00a0starts on the bounce before a wide run cost him at Eagle Farm last time out over the mile. If he jumps cleanly this time and\u00a0gets right back off the speed,\u00a0he\u2019ll\u00a0be strong in the finish.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Before that, he won by a similar margin at Eagle Farm ahead of Gambino, who franked the form by going on to win his next start.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

She really put her foot down when it mattered down the straight, which came as no surprise based on her trials leading in.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Racing well recently. Last start made ground from midfield; 3rd of 11 in a Hcp at Eagle Farm on August 29 over 1000m, 1.5 len behind Town Crier carrying 53kg at $2.45. The race before that favourite; tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by a long-neck in a Bm78 at Rosehill on August 15 over 1100m on a rain affected track defeating Off The Press with 60kg at $6. Is in this up to his ears on best form but he needs to find it.<\/td><\/tr> <\/tbody> <\/table> <\/div>
