Baciami ran second on debut at Gold Coast before spelling, and he could make a winning return on Wednesday.

The two-year-old comes off back-to-back trial wins at Gold Coast and Beaumont, so he looks ready to produce the goods.

He only needs luck from barrier 12 to figure in the finish.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 2. (12:33) Become a BRC Member BM68 (1110m)

#5 – Exceloquent

BET NOW

Exceloquent is already a two-time winner this preparation, including last time out at Ipswich.

The three-year-old filly by Exceed and Excel owns two wins and two placings from six starts, so the form is on the board.

Angela Jones riding adds to our confidence levels, so include her in picks.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 3. (13:08) XXXX Maiden (2040m)

#10 – Empress Aspen

BET NOW

Empress Aspen turned her form around when running second at Sunshine Coast, and she shouldn’t take long to win a race.

The three-year-old filly by Tagaloa enjoyed the rise to 1800m, so running over 2040m should be right up her alley now.

Look for a betting push on race day.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 4. (13:43) Stradbroke Season on Sale Handicap (2040m)

#5 – Good Banter

BET NOW

Good Banter is better than her form suggests, and we’re giving her one more chance to show something.

Her recent form hasn’t been good, but she comes off tough racing in Sydney, so this is a step down from that level.

53kg on her back is enough to take her close.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 5. (14:18) Drinkwise Maiden (1200m)

#4 – Valencia Roc

BET NOW

Boasting consistent form is Valencia Roc, who owns five placings from seven starts, and she deserves a win.

The four-year-old mare by Ten Sovereigns comes off a second placing at Eagle Farm, and a repeat of that is good enough to take her close.

Barrier three is ideal, so she gets her chance in the run.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 6. (14:53) Sky Racing C5 (1640m)

#1 – Nails Murphy

BET NOW

Nails Murphy has been in excellent form this season, including back-to-back wins before posting two placings.

The Ciaron Maher-trained runner has yet to win at Doomben, but he owns two placings, so he’s knocking on the door.

2kg comes off his back to help with the big weight.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 7. (15:28) Ladbrokes Calcutta & Luncheon C3 (1200m)

#5 – Mercurial Lady

BET NOW

Punters could get each-way odds for Mercurial Lady, who owns three wins and five placings from 12 starts.

The four-year-old mare by So You Think won at Sandown three back before coming to Queensland and running third at Doomben.

It won’t be long until he wins for her new trainer, so include her in picks.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 8. (16:03) Mullins Lawyers C3 (1200m)

#6 – Climactic

BET NOW

Seeking back-to-back wins is Climactic, who scored by a half-length at Doomben last time out.

The four-year-old son of Yes Yes Yes owns two wins and two placings from five starts, so it has been a good start to his career.

Dropping in weight helps, so he’s a good bet.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 9. (16:38) Ladbrokes Same Race Multi BM70 (1350m)

#13 – Kokatahi

BET NOW

Chris Waller lines up Kokatahi, who won at Hawkesbury three starts back before disappointing in two runs in Queensland.

The three-year-old son of Farnan shouldn’t take long to win a race in the state, and he could settle back and come with a late run.

Look for each-way odds on race day.

Stake: 1 Unit
