Verdict

MONARCHAL (12) is the top pick despite a plain first-up figure. Tackles a softer assignment second-up and a strong Doomben trial win in-between runs he can improve sharply. ANDERLAY (7) placed here on debut when leading them into the straight, before a good effort in town last start when forced back to the inside for a run. Peaking now and with the benefit of the claim, she rates a big threat. FLYING AKEED (13) has found the maiden win elusive but two solid trials should have him forward enough fresh, and a low draw helps. SPOILT ROTTEN (11) is another that has found it tough to get off the mark but has been good in both runs back and with a fitness edge he can play a role in the finish. FILTHY (1) chased gamely into the placings when resuming at Lismore and gets the key booking of Thompson. Worth keeping safe.

Placed at both starts and resumed with merit at Lismore, finishing third to Aurora Blaze after being bumped early and steadied before closing nicely. His Mornington debut second behind Chisholm also had merit after a slow beginning as favourite. Improvement to come and gets the key booking of Thompson.

Verdict
Returns from a six-month break after debuting in the Listed Dalrello Stakes at Eagle Farm, where he started at big odds, raced wide on heavy ground and was beaten ten lengths by The Next Episode. He has since had two trials, including a close second at Doomben, which points to better readiness. New trip, but improvement is possible.

Verdict
Resumed in mid-week company at Eagle Farm and finished sixth to Final Crusade, beaten four and a half lengths, but he raced keenly, was forced wide and had to be steadied. His previous Doomben second behind Rough Cause reads well enough for this, and he has placed three times around 1200m. Solid hope if he settles better.

Verdict
Eased back from Saturday company after a messy first-up run at Eagle Farm, where he began slowly, struck interference and finished 11th behind Graffitude. The bare margin is plain, but first-time blinkers, weight relief and a Doomben trial win give him several practical reasons to improve. If he begins cleanly, his peak is good enough to make him the one to beat. Happy to forgive.

Verdict
Returns from a six-month break after failing to finish at Beaudesert when sent out an odds-on favourite, which leaves a significant trust issue. His Doomben fifth prior was better than it reads after covering ground and finishing off from the rear. A close trial helps, but he still has plenty to prove under race pressure.

Verdict
Returns from a four-month break after ending last preparation with a poor Kilcoy run as favourite, beaten over 13 lengths after racing wide. His Sunshine Coast fourth prior was far more competitive, making solid inroads after early trouble. Kilcoy failure was poor, but his prior Sunshine Coast run gives him a real chance to fire fresh.

Verdict
Had excuses when fifth to Final Crusade at Eagle Farm, beginning awkwardly and being held up around the home turn before working home evenly. That followed a debut second at this track behind Snitzstream, where she led and was beaten only a length. Third-up with the claim, she looks a major chance.

Was expected to win at Gatton but could only finish third as a short odds-on favourite, beaten two and a half lengths after jumping awkwardly. His Eagle Farm run prior was plain when ninth to Metric, beaten six lengths. Third-up fitness helps, but he has to find more.

Verdict
Improved second-up at Gatton when second to Our Combination, beaten a length and a half after picking up strongly despite an awkward start. His Beaudesert fifth before that was also close up, beaten just under two lengths in an open market. Weight relief and a returning rider help, though the long maiden record remains the query.

Verdict
Makes his debut with one Dalby trial two weeks ago as the public guide, finishing fourth over 800m and beaten 5.78 lengths. First-time blinkers are applied, which may help sharpen him, but the stable has limited recent debut results from the supplied figures. Race-day evidence is thin, so the market may tell the story.

Verdict
Has posted consecutive Gold Coast fourths over 1000m, beaten just under two lengths two back and two and a half lengths last start behind Dirty Harry. He was able to hold a forward spot but was only even late, so the first attempt around 1200m is the key test. Place at best.

Verdict
Was safely held in mid-week company at Doomben last start, finishing sixth to Kobability after being unwanted in the market and unable to pick up when required. Her Toowoomba second prior was sound without being a major winning pointer, beaten just over four lengths. Earlier Toowoomba placing gives some hope, but others have stronger claims.

Verdict
Was beaten just under ten lengths at Gatton first-up after covering ground throughout, and the market offered little support at 71.0. His Sunshine Coast run prior was also well held on heavy ground, despite a check passing the 900m. Weight relief helps, but the 1200m record is a clear concern.
