Race 1. (12:28) Become a BRC Member Handicap (1110m)

#2 – Ever So Ready @ $3.40

Ever So Ready showed good speed to win on debut at Gold Coast before resuming with a placing at Eagle Farm.

The two-year-old colt finished behind Unloading, who he faces here, but he could turn the tables with a better trip in transit.

Look for him to find the front and give punters a good sight.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 2. (13:03) Sky Racing BM85 (1615m)

#7 – Phenom @ $5.50

BET NOW

Looking to go one better than her last start is Phenom, who ran second at Doomben behind Castillian.

That should be a good form guide for this race, and the four-year-old mare by Zoustar has every chance to take this out.

She gets in with 53.5kg, and that’s enough to include her in picks.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 3. (13:38) Stradbroke Season on Sale Now C3 (1615m)

#7 – Sir Winnie @ $4.40

BET NOW

Punters get value each-way odds for Sir Winnie, who comes off wins at Doomben and Eagle Farm.

The four-year-old son of Churchill owns three wins from six starts overall, so he has more upside than many in this race.

Having Angela Jones in the saddle helps, so everything points towards another tidy effort.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 4. (14:13) XXXX Gold Handicap (2020m)

#2 – Falcon Lair @ $2.90

BET NOW

We liked the way Falcon Lair found the line to win at Hawkesbury last start, and rising in distance could have unlocked his potential.

The three-year-old is consistent with two wins and six placings from eight starts, and he’s good enough to win in Queensland.

Barrier two with Ryan Maloney in the saddle adds to his appeal.

Stake: 2.5 Units

Race 5. (14:48) Ladbrokes Calcutta & Luncheon Handicap (1350m)

#5 – Pink Vixen @ $10.00

BET NOW

Pink Vixen could go back-to-back after scoring at Toowoomba, which should have done her confidence a world of good.

The three-year-old filly by Brave Smash takes on some nice types in this race, but she has turned her form around and has sparked our interest.

Dropping to 51.5kg is enough to take her close against any field.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 6. (15:27) Drinkwise BM78 (1350m)

#8 – Savagery Vibe @ $4.40

BET NOW

There isn’t much between many runners in this field, but we’re going with loose favourite Savagery Vibe.

The Tony Gollan-trained mare doesn’t know how to run a bad race, and she already owns a win and four placings this preparation.

She has drawn well, and she will give punters a good sight during the race.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 7. (16:07) Cricks Highway BM80 (1110m)

#16 – Without Parallel @ $4.60

BET NOW

Without Parallel is a proven fresh up performer with two starts for two wins, and she could hit the ground running this prep.

The four-year-old mare is a nice type in the making with four wins from six starts, with her last two starts coming in Sydney against tough fields.

This is easier, so take the each-way odds from bookmakers.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 8. (16:43) Ladbrokes Hosted Pots Handicap (1350m)

#3 – Tenzing @ $15.00

BET NOW

Tenzing showed good consistency last campaign, and although his fresh up form is only fair, he could surprise punters on Saturday.

The Gollan-trained gelding has been given a few trials to prepare for this race, and his best form comes at Doomben with two wins and five placings.

He’s worth the risk at the double-figure odds.

Stake: 1 Unit
