Stradbroke Handicap Form Guide & Tips
(1) Bella Nipotina ($10.00)
She is the class runner of the field but drawing barrier 21 doesn’t help.
That’s why she’s paying $10.00, but we’re happy to include her in our picks.
(2) Magic Time ($12.00)
She’s not always the most consistent type going around, but with six wins on her record, she can’t be left out.
Carrying 55.5kg is ideal, and she could score a Group 1 win.
(3) Antino ($9.50)
He is another runner that would be shorter had he drawn a barrier.
Jumping from barrier 20 hurts, but he’s a five-time winner at Eagle Farm, and having that experience can’t be overlooked.
(4) Benedetta (Best Each Way – $12.00)
She’s running well this preparation with two wins and a placing from her last three.
She likes to put herself on the speed, and as other runners try find a spot with cover, she will be out of trouble.
Take the $12.00 odds as they are generous.
(5) Cepheus ($101.00)
Based on his two awful runs last prep, he shouldn’t be coming close to them.
(6) Vilana (Best Bet – $5.00)
He couldn’t have been more impressive when winning with ease last time out.
This is a rise in class, but getting in with 53kg is ideal, and confidence levels are up with the favourite.
(7) Here to Shock ($21.00)
He’s another runner that has recaptured his best form. Adds to the depth of this field, and he gets the inside draw.
(8) Nugget (Best Roughie – $20.00)
Forget he went around at Scone when the rider felt no need to get a clear run.
A change in rider is ideal, and he has been working well for this race, so we’re taking the generous odds available.
(9) The Inevitable ($20.00)
He appears past his best, and we don’t think he has the same turn-of-foot he once had.
(10) Amenable ($13.00)
He keeps finding one better, and that has always been the concern when betting on him.
He’s an each-way chance because of that, so the $4.00 place money could be worth a nibble.
(11) Prince of Boom ($46.00)
His best days appear behind him, but he does have upset claims on his day.
(12) Osipenko ($31.00)
He is better than what he showed fresh up, but he needs to find a few lengths to win at the top level.
(13) Mighty Ulysses ($51.00)
Solid enough efforts his last two, but he is better suited to something easier.
(14) Semana ($27.00)
It’s tough to overlook consistent form. Third behind Zougotcha last time out, which could be a solid form guide.
First four chance with luck from the horror draw.
(15) Dream Hour ($91.00)
The odds tell the story. He’s unlikely to be quick enough.
(16) Steparty ($20.00)
His winning form has deserted him at the wrong time, so he needs to get his confidence back before we back him.
(17) Stefi Magnetica ($13.00)
There has been some support for her at double-figure odds, but we think she’ll struggle at Group 1 level.
(18) Roll on High ($18.00)
Got back to winning form at Eagle Farm when taking out the Fred Best.
This is a rise in class, but carrying 50kg could take her close.
(19) Freedom Rally ($12.00)
Never too far away but we wanted longer odds against genuine Group 1 types.
(20) Yellow Brick ($23.00)
Scored an overdue win last time out, but going back-to-back could prove difficult.
(21) Strait Acer ($101.00)
His form has tapered off and he’s unlikely to get a run.
(22) Aureus Angel ($151.00)
Big odds and rightfully so.
(23) Cifrado ($126.00)
Need a miracle to get into the field.
