Racing & Sports expert selections.

RACE 1 - The three-year-old maidens kick us off. HEALTHY SUSPICION (10) has been in the mix in all three runs this preparation and strikes a very winnable contest here. Looks to be building up to a maiden victory and should be right there when the whips are cracking. PRINCE LEVI (5) finished runner-up at Ipswich before being tipped out for time to furnish. Can return in winning order. FOOLSAY (2) has placed three of eight overall and should be rock-hard fit for this. Top-three candidate. LADY BOSSA NOVA (11) has hit the top-five at her past four outings and is a must for the multiples. SHOWRATA (6) next in line from the Lees yard.

RACE 2 - VICTORY FLAME (2) has looked handy placing in both starts to date and this is not an overly strong affair. Ready to peak third time at the races and only needs some luck from the carpark draw to be playing a prominent role in the outcome. TRUSTY BANDIT (16) has been thereabouts in all three runs this campaign and strips fitter fourth-up from the break. Looms as the main danger. POSTMAN'S GAP (6) has been a bit plain at the past couple but the three placings prior were full of merit. Worth another chance. DIVAS REIGN (9) best of the rest from the favourable draw.

RACE 3 - Former Victorian TURN UP THE MUSIC (1) has hit the frame in both runs since joining the new stable and strips fitter third-up from the spell. Wheeler sticks in the irons following that last-start runner-up finish and should be going very close to breaking the maiden status here. DATA LEAK (2) is unlucky to still be maiden finishing runner-up at both runs this campaign including going down by the narrowest of margins last time out. Will give this a mighty shake. AZUKI (6) resumes here but has placed first-up before and boasts two seconds from as many attempts at the trip. In the mix. ADDICTIVE PIRANHA (13) has placed one from one over this course and distance, draws the inside marble and gets 1.5kg off with the claim. Ticks a few boxes. FOR THE BRAVE (11) rounds out the selections in a compettive maiden.

RACE 4 - JUNGLE JUICE (2) was a touch disappointing at Toowoomba last time out but go on the dominant debut victory there two back. Gets the services of Huxtable to navigate from the sticky draw and can bounce right back to form in this contest. Former Victorian DARK SKIES (1) is having his first run for the new stable but draws low and gets 2kg off with the claim. Should find this easier than what he faced down south and rates a genuine hope in this line-up. LEVAR (3) has hit the top-four in four of five starts to date including a win over this course and distance. Has to be included. GIGGY (7) shed the maiden tag at the latest outing and will have derived a stack of confidence from that win. Can go back-to-back. STATE IN TEXAS (6) resumes here but tuned up for this with a recent trial placing and gets in well at the weights with the claim. Can earn a cheque while fresh.

RACE 5 - INAZUMA BOY (1) wasn't too far off them in much tougher grade last time out and the four runs prior were good enough to feature in a race like this. Gets some weight relief with the claim and should be going very close. SZABO (3) resumes here but has a handy first-up record with two wins and a second from five starts. Drawn to get all the favours from the inside alley and rates a top-three contender. KEYBOARD (2) boasts a win around this circuit and has placed three from four when fresh. Cannot be discounted.HOKUSAI (5) performed well last start when third at Ipswich over 800m on soft going. Appeals as a leading player.

RACE 6 - UNION SPIRIT (2) is a consistent conveyance who has hit the top-five at his past ten outings. Loves this track and trip with two wins and two placings from just five attempts and should be right there when the judge calls a halt. ARIAT (5) is two from two around this circuit and gets some weight off with the 1.5kg claim. Will be rock-hard fit for this and looms as the main danger. YEAH COPY (10) has placed over this course and distance and is usually thereabouts. In the mix on best form. BELLE'S BOY (7) strips fitter second-up from the spell and is drawn to get a cosy run in transit from gate two. Include in calculations. PROPHET OF BOOM (9) bokre the maiden status when resuming and will have derived a bunch of confidence from that victory. Can go back-to-back.

RACE 7 - The well-related IRAMA (5) (half to G2 winner Serasana) got the maiden out of the way in impressive fashion last time out and will have come on with that win now under the belt. Winning hoop Dempsey stays in the stirrups and looks the runner in this field with the most upside. Goes on top. MIKKI EIGHT (3) boasts a win around this circuit and will be rock-hard fit for this. Can trouble the judge with any luck from the wide draw. FIERY RING (1) also hails from a handy family (half to Listed winner and G2 placed Scorched Earth) and should be prominent from the favourable draw. Top-three credentials on best form. MIGRATORY (9) shed the maiden tag at the latest effort and can go right on with the job now. LUPINE (10) best of the rest from the inside alley.

RACE 8 - ARCHER'S GAME (4) is an honest campaigner who has hit the top-five in 11 of her past 12 starts and is usually thereabouts. Has placed two from two around this circuit, draws low and gets 1.5kg off. Ticks a few boxes. THE SHAMAN (5) grows a leg for hoop Pointon who has two wins and two placings from just four steers. Again gets the benefit of her 4kg claim and rates a serious candidate. HAYSIRI (9) has placed at his past three outings when well in the betting and where there's smoke there's fire. In the mix. ALL I WANT IS YOU (3) has won three of his past five including one around this track. Can feature in the finish again. TYPHOON TIP (12) next best with Graham on board.

RACE 9 - RIDEAU (1) resumes here but the form he has shown in previous preparations is good enough to feature in a race like this. Tuned up for this with a whopping seven length trial victory and a strong showing while fresh would not surprise. SUNIKI (6) saves her best form for this circuit where she has four wins and four placings from 12 starts. Gets plenty of weight relief with the 4kg claim and can make her presence felt once again. BEEN A SECRET (4) doesn't win out of turn but is usually thereabouts and may run a race first-up. Former NSW galloper SUCCESSFUL (5) wasn't too far away in her first local outing and will have come on now with that run in the locker. Top-three commodity. RISK ASSESSMENT (10) gets the deadly Gollan/Jones combination and shouldn't be dismissed lightly.
