Our Doomben Tips & Preview<\/strong> covers Wednesday\u2019s seven-race card, with the track rated a Soft 5. A clearing shower is forecast in the lead-up, followed by mostly sunny conditions on race day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rail is out 8m, a position that traditionally favours on-pace runners. The speed map and early positioning will be key, while the opening races should show whether that pattern holds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our race analysis looks at the key runners, main winning chances and best betting opportunities across the meeting. Here\u2019s our race-by-race preview.<\/p>\n\n\n

Race 1 – EZY PROJECTS Maiden Handicap (1350 METRES)<\/div>\n
No. 11 Zephyr Song<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

ZEPHYR SONG (11)<\/strong> returns to Doomben after a strong second over this course and distance, and Corey and Kylie Geran bring her into the race fresh off their Weetwood win.<\/p>\n

The daughter of Zoustar raced outside the lead last time and kept finding to finish half a length from the winner.<\/p>\n

Her two previous starts since transferring from the Waterhouse & Bott stable produced a close fourth at Toowoomba first-up, followed by a third at Doomben.<\/p>\n

Bella Youngberry\u2019s 3kg claim should assist her in securing a forward position from a favourable draw.<\/p>\n

Race 2 – PIRCSA BENCHMARK 68 Handicap (2240 METRES)<\/div>\n
No. 1 Super Fair<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

SUPER FAIR (1)<\/strong> brings a strong recent record to this staying event and looks well placed to continue his form.<\/p>\n

The Mark Callaghan-trained gelding was beaten by a neck at the Gold Coast three starts ago.<\/p>\n

At Ipswich, he finished strongly but went down by a head after his jockey fumbled with the persuader.<\/p>\n

He made no mistake last start over 2040m at Doomben, storming home to catch Iconify on the line.<\/p>\n

The step up to 2240m should suit the way he finishes his races, and Montana Philpot\u2019s 3kg claim is an advantage.<\/p>\n

Built on a narrow Benchmark 65 second at Ipswich by winning over 2040m at Doomben last start, working over the top to beat Iconify by a head at generous odds. She carries the top weight, but Montana Philpot’s 3kg claim is a help and their record together is strong.

Race 3 – ETHOS BUILDING & RESTORATION Class 4 Handicap (1650 METRES)<\/div>\n
No. 1 Perfect Play<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

PERFECT PLAY (1)<\/strong> carries a significant weight, but his class stands out and the drop in grade is in his favour.<\/p>\n

The Annabel and Rob Archibald-trained gelding was too keen in blinkers over this track and distance last time and faded late to finish 1.26 lengths fourth.<\/p>\n

His effort three starts ago was more encouraging.<\/p>\n

He battled on well in a Benchmark 85 Handicap over the same course and trip, beaten by half a length.<\/p>\n

Ryan Houston\u2019s 2kg claim should help, and Perfect Play is expected to race on speed.<\/p>\n

Ran fourth in a Benchmark 78 at Doomben last start, beaten just over a length by Liberty Park after sitting close enough and only battling late. The prior fifth in a Benchmark 85 at Eagle Farm on soft ground was also sound, beaten just under two lengths.

Race 4 – SILVER WOLF PROJECTS QTIS Three-Year-Old Maiden Plate (1200 METRES)<\/div>\n
No. 9 Tiny Light<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

TINY LIGHT (9)<\/strong> faces a tricky task from the outside barrier, though her trial performances have been encouraging.<\/p>\n

The Tony Gollan-trained filly won her first trial in June, then had a spell before returning to prepare for this campaign.<\/p>\n

She led throughout to win by 5.8 lengths at the Gold Coast in her first trial this time in work.<\/p>\n

In her latest hit-out, she showed early speed to cross from the outside and went on to win comfortably.<\/p>\n

Bella Youngberry can use that pace to secure a forward spot, either leading or settling prominently.<\/p>\n

Debuts for Tony Gollan as a $140,000 Gold Coast Yearling Sale purchase, and that stable base is a major asset in this field. Bella Youngberry’s 3kg claim is another positive, helping offset the wide barrier 18. Wide draw is the query, but he still looks the one to beat.<\/td> <\/tr> <\/tbody> <\/table> <\/div>

Race 5 – INSUREBUILD Class 3 Plate (1200 METRES)<\/div>\n
No. 4 Street Chase<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

STREET CHASE (4)<\/strong> resumes under new trainer Jack Bruce, who has a strong record of improving horses.<\/p>\n

The Zoustar gelding was sent for a spell after a disappointing last preparation that included a wide run at the Gold Coast.<\/p>\n

His record as a three-year-old gives him a solid class profile for this set-weight race.<\/p>\n

He won an Open Handicap and finished a head second in the Group 3 Vo Rogue Plate.<\/p>\n

A recent trial adds to the case for a forward showing.<\/p>\n

He showed good speed to share the lead, then dashed clear to win by just under three lengths.<\/p>\n

Taylor Marshall should be able to settle handy and track the leaders.<\/p>\n

Returns from a five-month break with an easy Doomben trial win, which is an important pointer after a plain Gold Coast tenth in Benchmark 85 grade where he raced wide throughout. His previous Doomben run came in 3yo+ Class 6 company, and this is a more suitable assignment. Class relief gives him a strong winning case.<\/td> <\/tr> <\/tbody> <\/table> <\/div>

Race 6 – JOHNS LYNG GROUP BENCHMARK 78 Handicap (1350 METRES)<\/div>\n
No. 3 Lockyer<\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
Tip of The Day<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

LOCKYER (3)<\/strong> has won two of his past three starts and arrives in solid form for Tony Gollan.<\/p>\n

The trainer found a suitable race for him three starts ago, when he broke through for an overdue win over this course and distance.<\/p>\n

He then ran well at Eagle Farm over 1400m, peaking late, before returning to Doomben last start.<\/p>\n

Back at this track and trip, he produced a strong finish to win easily.<\/p>\n

There appears to be good speed engaged.<\/p>\n

That should give Emily Pozman, who claims 3kg, the chance to settle into a nice run before asking him for his effort in the straight.<\/p>\n

Made it four wins from five at the Doomben 1350m when taking out a 3yo+ Class 3 last start, overcoming a hampered start and covering ground before beating Enforceable by just over a length. The Eagle Farm fourth behind Larrikin Rogue two back was sound, and blinkers going on adds further interest. Blinkers go on and his course pattern makes him the one to beat.<\/td> <\/tr> <\/tbody> <\/table> <\/div>

Race 7 – ARC PROJECTS Class 1 Handicap (1110 METRES)<\/div>\n
No. 7 Cardonette<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

CARDONETTE (7)<\/strong> arrives after breaking through for her maiden win at the Gold Coast, having placed in each of her first four starts.<\/p>\n

The Tony Gollan-trained mare was sent out a $1.35 favourite and justified that support.<\/p>\n

She swept around the field on the turn and finished strongly to win hands and heels by just over a length.<\/p>\n

She should take improvement from that first win, while the slight step up in distance is expected to suit.<\/p>\n

The draw is awkward, but Ben Thompson takes the ride.<\/p>\n

Justified prohibitive odds-on support at Gold Coast last start, winning a Maiden by just over a length despite striking interference and being tightened before producing from back in the field. She had earlier run second to Hello Punters after covering ground, so her consistency is well established. Wide draw is manageable, and her consistency makes her the one to beat.<\/td> <\/tr> <\/tbody> <\/table> <\/div>
