Araminta is looking for three consecutive wins after scoring at Kilcoy and Dalby, and he could measure up at this level.

Look for value odds on race day.
Stake: 1 Unit
Chris Waller lines up Yet He Moves, who owns two wins from his last four starts.
The six-year-old son of Adelaide is a three-time winner at Doomben, and he showed class when racing in New South Wales.
He has been freshened for this race, so that bodes well.
Stake: 2 Units
Pharoah’s Prophecy owns two wins and three placings from seven starts, including excellent form at Doomben.
The five-year-old son of American Pharoah started his preparation with consecutive wins at Doomben, and he’s loving racing here.
The big weight is tough to carry, but he gets all favours from the draw.
Stake: 1.5 Units
Dushenka showed good speed when winning on debut at Eagle Farm before struggling in a tough race at Randwick behind Tempted.
That form has been franked at the top level, and the three-year-old filly has been primed with a placing at Gold Coast.
Getting the inside draw is ideal, and she has every chance to win this race.
Stake: 2.5 Units
Kris Lees lines up Brave Call, who ended last preparation with a win at Newcastle by a nose in a tough affair.
The five-year-old son of Churchill runs his best races over this distance, including a win and two placings, so the form checks out.
This isn’t an easy field, but we’re happy to include him in horse racing picks.
Stake: 1 Unit
Seeking back-to-back wins is Pareto, who was too tough for them at Doomben last time out.
The four-year-old son of Pierata is a past winner at the track and having that experience bodes well for this race.
That was a good win from out wide, so getting barrier four adds to his appeal.
Stake: 1 Unit
Star Ambition showed good speed when winning his first two races this preparation, and it won’t take him long to win in Queensland.
Those wins came at Grafton and Coffs Harbour, and the four-year-old son of Star Turn is easily good enough to win this race.
We expect money to come thick and fast for him once again.
Stake: 2 Units
Simbu owns five wins and five placings from 18 starts, including three wins at Doomben.
The six-year-old son of Spirit of Boom runs his best races over the distance, and he only needs a touch of luck from the tricky barrier.
Going from 1000m to 1110m works in his favour.
Stake: 1 Unit
