The Quokka Tips for Trifecta

The Quokka Runner-By-Runner Guide

1. Jigsaw @ $4.60

Bet Now

His form this season has been excellent, including Group 1 wins either side of the Tasman.

It’s tough to rule him out from the wide draw, as he will likely attempt to find the front and give punters a good sight.

Include him in picks at each-way odds.

2. Caballus (Best Bet) @ $4.60

Bet Now

Too good for them in the Newmarket last start, and Group 1-winning form should hold up well in The Quokka.

He has come of age nicely this season, and he should go close if he gets cover from an awkward draw, which is his only negative.

3. Rey Magnerio @ $4.80

Bet Now

A fan favourite, and although sixth last time out, it wasn’t a bad run. He should benefit from the outing, and he could finish over the top of them.

We’re happy to include him in trifecta and first four picks at the current odds.

4. Magnificent Andy @ $46.00

Bet Now

Winning this race fresh up could prove difficult, and his form last preparation wasn’t good enough to feature here.

5. Jedibeel (Best Roughie) @ $20.00

Bet Now

He’s not an easy runner to follow, but he comes off a Group 1 placing in Sydney when running only a nose behind Marhoona.

That was a good return to form for the experienced sprinter, who is a live chance of winning at double-figure odds.

6. Spywire @ $15.00

Bet Now

We don’t know if he’s quite up to this level of racing, but getting the inside draw should see him land in a good position.

He’s tough enough to win with the right run in transit, so he could enter calculations for first four players.

7. Oscar's Fortune @ $27.00

Bet Now

Not everything went right for him in the Roma Cup, and he might be forced to do too much work from a wide barrier.

He will get back and look to run on, but the winning run might have been already made by the time he warms up.

8. Rope Them In @ $31.00

Bet Now

A winner of the Roma Cup last start, but there are better form guides for The Quokka. At the odd, we’re happy to leave him out.

9. West Star @ $35.00

Bet Now

Only average when resuming, and we thought the odds would be longer than $35.

10. Sisu Warrior @ $151.00

Bet Now

Big odds after winning last start, but this is a much harder race. Wouldn’t be in our top 10 picks.

11. Smooth Chino (Best Each Way) @ $6.00

Bet Now

He has yet to finish worse than second from seven starts, including six wins. He was beaten for the first time fresh up, but he needed the run.

The talent is there to handle this field, and he’s being slept on at the current odds.

12. Talkanco @ $31.00

Bet Now

A handy enough type on her day, but this is a tough race for a filly. She could get overpowered in the straight, so we’re not including her in picks.

13. Luana Miss @ $8.00

Bet Now

She had no luck in the Roma Cup last start, and although a filly, she has more upside than Talkanco.

She gets a good run from barrier six, and she is one of the better local chances in The Quokka.

14. Repossession @ $81.00

Bet Now

Big odds, and improvement is needed on recent efforts. Hard to include him in picks.

15. Cessation @ $91.00

Bet Now

Nominated for another race on the card, and she is a better bet there.

16. Cut the Talk @ $151.00

Bet Now

Unlikely to run, as the odds suggest.

17. Sky Duke @ $201.00

Bet Now

He would need to find 6-7 lengths to have any chance.
