Racing in Brisbane this afternoon comes from Doomben where we have 10 races to get through on a good (4) rated track. We’re in for a partly cloudy day with a forecast maximum in the mid 20’s. First race gets underway at 11.38am QLD time.

BEST BET

RACE 4 # 12 NAVYONTHEHIGHWAY

Really like the look of this mare who has tasted defeat only once at her 4 starts to date. On that occasion she was beaten by the smart Cigar Flick on Tiara Day at Eagle Farm in new track record time. She resumed at here at Doomben recently sitting wide without cover yet was still far too strong to the line. Can’t see the weight rise slowing her down.

NEXT BEST

RACE 7 # 3 POETIC DRAMA

Much shorter odds than were available earlier in the week she does appear well placed here third up. A winner fresh she had no chance second-up in a sprint home where making ground was impossible. Good gate here & up to the mile, well placed.

BEST VALUE

RACE 3 # 5 MOSZUR

Lightly raced mare who caught the eye very late when resuming here over 1350m. Fitter she’s raced well second up in the past & can park handily from the good draw. The step up in distance is another plus.

FROM THE TRIALS

RACE 8 # 5 BEWS

Ex Victorian formerly with the Price/Kent Jnr combination now with the leading Sunshine Coast stable of Stuart Kendrick. Beaten only once fresh at 3 attempts (unlucky, motoring home late) he certainly gave the impression he’d adapted to his new surroundings just fine winning a home track trial recently in good time under no pressure. Big chance to make a winning local debut.
