Saturday Metro racing in Brisbane returns to Doomben on Saturday for a strong eight event program. The weather is fine, the track is good (4) and the rail is out five metres for the entire circuit.

 

[crownbetoffer]

 

Race One (12:55) : Val & Eddie Machin Handicap 1200m:

Back Me: Confident that 4 Lady Lark (Best Odds: $2.90) can get the job done. She produced a lovely turn of foot to win on debut at Eagle Farm before going to the Sunny Coast where she bumped into Snitzkraft. Clearly not as much depth here, and being start three now, she should just about be ready to show us what she can really do.
Big Danger: 3 South Of France (Best Odds: $6.50) was an alarming drifter in the market when debuting at Eagle Farm three weeks back where he had a nice sit just off the pace and chased hard throughout but couldn’t reel in the north Queensland juvenile star Paradis Imperial. Has the run under the belt and interesting to note that he has been nominated for the Sires during the Championships.
Long Shot: 6 Felino Bel (Best Odds: $21.00) looked to trial well behind stablemate Junction (Debut winner) before going to Grafton where he was given a sweet steer by Colless and the daughter of Bel Esprit bolted up to win impressively and run decent time in comparison for the remainder of the afternoon. Stable is having a really good run with their youngsters and should be respected.

 

 

Race Two (13:32) : Beenleigh Bowls Club Is Back Handicap 2030m:

Back Me: 5 Arki (Best Odds: $2.20) is a horse who is absolutely low flying this time for the Kelly Doughty yard. Has won four from four this time in and has been so impressive each start, the latest coming two weeks ago over 1800m at the Sunny Coast where he had a lovely sit near the speed and he just bolted in, giving nothing else a look in. Rises in trip, but should handle it, and he has more brilliance than these, who do look pluggers.
Big Danger: 8 Annaman (Best Odds: $6.50) was very good two back in the Magic Millions Trophy (2200m) at the Gold Coast behind Group l winner Stratum Star. That saw him wel fancied by most at the Sunny Coast a fortnight back but gee he was disappointing I thought after having the 1/1 sit throughout. Impossible to trust, but again, he finds a winnable race.
Long Shot: 3 Yoho (Best Odds: $9.50) has taken a little while to find his feet this time in but I thought there was good merit in his last start second to Transporter in the mile race at Eagle Farm three weeks ago. He will get speed favours here from the gate here and I like the fact he is up to 2000m, because though untried, I think he has the class/ability to overcome that.

 

 

Race Three (14:07) : Coolphase Plate (Class 3) 1050m:

Back Me: 12 We’s Done (Best Odds: $6.50) is a sparingly raced four year old mare who has come back to racing in super order. She resumed at Ipswich where she was heavily backed late and aided by a confident on speed steer from Lloyd, the mare darted away late. Can only see upside and Lloyd sticks. Rates highly.
Big Danger: 1 Dylan’s Luck (Best Odds: $4.80) could be the big improver here. He closed off strongly two back over 900m at the Gold Coast when second to Winning Supreme before going to Eagle farm where he struggled to pick his feet up on the wet track behind Our Story. Much better placed here on top of the ground and only has to overcome the gate to be a threat.
Long Shot: 14 Love A Rose (Best Odds: $7.00) attempted to lead all the way over 1200m here last Wednesday where she showed realy good speed out of the gates to lead them up comfortably. Gave a kick but just felt the pinch late. Back to 1050m is ideal and though drawn wide, I think she can carve over.

 

 

Race Four (14:42) : In Remembrance Of Elsie & William Morgan Handicap 1630m:

Back Me: 4 Ahndras (Best Odds: $1.90) is a very promising filly who looks the one to beat here for Toby Edmonds. She ran over the mile at the Sunny Coast a fortnight back where she got back early on before Lloyd made the move and the move and the filly dashed to the front, and pretty much gave nothing else a look in, going strongly to the line. The Sunny Coast mile is a tough one, so the Doomben mile looks perfect.
Big Danger: 6 Up The Tempo (Best Odds: $10.00) is the filly with upside here and she looks as if she will love the mile. Resumed over 1350m here on Australia Day where she sat back in the run before Lloyd presented her and she looked a serious winning hope but couldn’t quite finish it off and had to settle for second to Rare Occurrence. Suited up in trip and is only second up.
Long Shot: 10 Stylian (Best Odds: $61.00) ran fifth in that Rare Occurrence race and he was second up in that race. He attempted to lead all the way but just looked to cop a touch too much pressure on speed and though he did give a really good kick, he couldn’t quite finish off and had to settle for fifth. Mile is interesting, but he does map well and should be hard fit now.

 

 

Race Five (15:17) : Site Pro 1 Handicap (0MW) 1350m:

Back Me: 9 Jetsonic (Best Odds: $6.00) was a month between runs when racing over 1200 at Eagle Farm on a wet track where he looked be going up as a threat but he couldn’t finish off and his condition just gave way. Suited up to 1350m I think, draws a lovely gate and most importantly is on top of the ground. Looks the one to beat for me here.
Big Danger: 4 Motion Granted (Best Odds: $7.00) is a horse racing really well this time. Scored a dominant first up win over 1000m at Eagle Farm before going to the Gold Coast and bumping into Ringo’s A Rockstar before racing over 1200m at Eagle Farm where he tried hard but couldn’t quite get the job done and had to settle for second to Our Story. Looks ready for the 1350m now and is a major contender.
Long Shot: 12 I’m Alone (Best Odds: $7.50) will love the rise to 1350m here after racing over 1200m at Eagle Farm last start where he got back in the ruck before Galloway hugged the fence and the horse savaged the line late to just miss out on picking up Skylimit. Not as much depth here and the form out of that race has been pretty good.

 

 

Race Six (15:57) : Business Insurance Group Handicap (0MW) 1350m:

Back Me: 7 Gypsy Secret (Best Odds: $19.00) is a North Queensland mare who has run well in town before but I think she looks much better placed this time around. Last time she was in town she did run run third but I think she was a tired horse then off a long prep. She will have more spring in her legs this time around given she is only fourth up off the back of a super win on her home track at the Sunny Coast. 1350m is perfect and if they go quick in front, look out for her.
Big Danger: 4 Passionflower (Best Odds: $6.00) is a consistent mare for David Vandyke who tends to find one or two better on the day but the form around her does read very well. She ran over 1400m at Eagle Farm last time out where she ran home well but was no match late for the low flying Mystic Opal. That reads so well for a race of this depth.
Long Shot: 10 All That Is (Best Odds: $17.00) ran at the Gold Coast last time out where she had a nice sit just off the speed and chased hard the entire straight but couldn’t quite hold out Lucky Show Girl. 1350m is a little query, but with a cold steer, I think she will get it. A threat for sure if that can eventuate.

 

 

Race Seven (16:37) : Cooper Reeves Handicap (0MW) 1350m:

Back Me: 9 Helarocity (Best Odds: $3.00) is a sparingly raced five year old who is putting together a nice little record for the in form Lindsay Hatch yard. He ran on his home track at Toowoomba last time out and absolutely bolted in under Brad Stewart, careering away to win by a space and running time. 1350m should be no issue, down in the weights and does have scope, plus he maps well.
Big Danger: 4 Legal Procedure (Best Odds: $6.50) is a talented North Queensland galloper that has run well in town before and looks ready to tackle it again off the back of a very good win last Thursday on his home track at Rockhampton where he looked in awful trouble getting a clear run but when Coome got out, he just savaged the line and went right on to win in the last hope. Draws a lovely gate here, gets weight relief and Hellyer has ridden the horse well previously.
Long Shot: 6 Marksfield (Best Odds: $7.00) is on the seven day back up after racing last Saturday Eagle Farm where he was midfield and wide throughout when finishing down the track behind Dee Nine Elle. This is the easiest race he has contested in some time and he does draw much better this time around, and gets the claim for Sewell again.

 

 

Race Eight (17:17) : Toxfree & MND Handicap 1350m:

Back Me: 10 Siegfried (Best Odds: $4.00) was confidently backed when racing over 1200m at Doomben and aided by a rail hugging ride from Lloyd, he got the job done. Lloyd then adopted similar tactics on Magic Millions Day. Problem was the fence was the no go zone, so his effort to run a close fourth to the class Madotti was very good. Finds a lovely race here.
Big Danger: 2 Flamboyer (Best Odds: $4.80) had good late market support when racing in the Sunshine Coast Cup (1400m) last time out and he gave a really good kick under Jeff Lloyd but he couldn’t hold out Sir Moments late. Maps well, fitter and loves racing at Doomben, so he’s one of the hardest to beat.
Long Shot: 8 Banda Spice (Best Odds: $9.00) strung together three very impressive wins before contesting the Sunshine Coast Cup where she was forced back to near last from the wide gate and despite never being a winning threat, she stuck on really well behind Sir Moments. Not the greatest of records at Doomben, but she has to be included on form.

 

 

Race Nine (17:55) : Queensland Brain Institute Handicap (85) 1200m:

Back Me: 8 Fiery Heights (Best Odds: $3.40) is an above average gelding for the Toby Edmonds yard who looks the one to beat here. He ran over 1200m at Eagle Farm three weeks back where he sat wide throughout and did a really good job in defeat given the work he did when running fourth to Skylimit, who ran well last week. Very good stats at Doomben and just needs better luck to take some beating.
Big Danger: 3 Oberland (Best Odds: $4.00) was five weeks between runs when racing over 1200m at the Sunny Coast a fortnight back where he came with a well timed run under Larry Cassidy to win and win impressively. He can only improve off that to my eye and he does tend to save his best for Doomben. Massive threat.
Long Shot: 12 Sheiswhatsheis (Best Odds: $6.50) can be a hard mare to trust but on her best form she’d give this a shake. She ran over 1200m here on December 24 where she got to a midfield spot and looked to travel well but couldn’t quite finish it off behind Khaleesi. Tends to save her best for when she is produced fresh, so she could be the knockout chance at odds.
