Brisbane Best: Eagle Farm - 11th October 2025

We head back to Eagle Farm this weekend with the running of the Listed Queensland and Members Cups.

Picture: Racing and Sports

Black-type racing is back in the Sunshine State this weekend with two Listed contests in the form of the $160,000 Queensland and Members Cups headlining the ten-race card. 

Our best of the day comes up in the Three-Year-Old Handicap with us landing on Voodoo Lass out of the Danny Bougoure operation. 

The penny has dropped for this daughter of Dirty Work who has strung back-to-back wins together over Saturday's distance range and gets a jockey upgrade in the form of gun hoop Ryan Maloney. 

The third favourite in the betting is still a maiden which shows you how quickly the depth of this race drops away and it's hard to knock fillies in form. Currently shopping around the 9/4 quote in the old and the scratching of Tony Gollan's recent winner Find Me is key. 

Again we're siding with last-start winner So You Are in the Queensland Cup who is on the quick back-up following a dominant Doomben win last weekend. 

Gets in on the minimum weight of 53kg's with in-form rider Robbie Dolan in the saddle after his Group 1 win in The Metropolitan at Royal Randwick a week ago. Also boasting a Melbourne Cup victory to his name last year, Dolan is clearly adept at steering stayers. 

This son of So You Think has only missed a drum twice in 12 outings with one of those 'failures' coming when a close-up fifth in the Group 3 Newcastle Cup two starts back. This is an easier assignment.
