Eight races on the card at Ipswich and here's the Racing and Sports suggested plays.
Tricky race to kick off the card with many of these facing the starter for the first time. Of the raced brigade ENTERPRISE KHAN (1) hit the frame on debut when well in the betting before being tipped out for further time to mature. Revved up for this with two recent trials and has race experience over a lot of these. Can return a winner. TENGUN JESSIE (7) is at the races for the first time but has shown ability at the trials and is sure to be well-educated out of the Anderson barn. Keep very safe. HELLO PUNTERS (2) has placed over this sprint journey and gets some weight relief with the 1.5kg claim. In the mix. REEVACITY (6) placed in a recent Sunny Coast trial and may make her presence felt on debut. HIT THE KEY (4) best of the rest.
SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Enterprise Khan.
REVANTAS (2) resumes here but the form he showed in his first campaign was good enough to be competitive in a race of this nature. Gets 2kg off with the claim and maps ideally from gate four. Rates the testing material. BETTA BEING SINGLE (4) has placed three of four overall and is knocking on the door of a maiden victory. Strips fitter second-up from the break and looms as the main danger. BOLD CHANGE (1) has been in the betting in both starts to date and where there's smoke there's fire. Include with Wiggins on board. PRUCIA (12) showed some ability placing at Toowoomba on debut and is drawn to get all the favours from the inside alley. In the mix. DARE TO LOVE (7) next in line despite the sticky draw.
SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Revantas.
The well-related WEST CORK (3) (half to G1 winner Qafila) has a handy record around this circuit with two wins and four placings from ten spins and will be rock-hard fit for this. Gets the services of Melbourne Cup winning hoop Dolan in the saddle and can make his presence felt against this line-up. SANCTUARY STORM (2) returned in good order with a close-up second at the Sunny Coast and will have come on with that run now in the locker. Expected to be prominent. SAVVY BEE (9) hit the frame last time out and looks ready for the step-up in trip now. Top-three aspirations with Wiggins on top. BATTLESPACE (8) has placed at the past couple and draws the inside marble. Cannot be discounted lightly. BRINGME (10) best of the rest with the claim.
SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 3,2,9,8.
SPARTUS (6) grows a leg for hoop Jones who has three wins from just four steers and will be high on confidence following that last-start victory over this track and trip. Looks the one they all have to run down. MY NAME IS (4) has a win and a second from two attempts over this course and distance and has tuned up for this with a recent trial victory. Include from the low draw. CAMPAI (2) has won two of his past four and gets some weight off with the 2kg claim. Hard to beat in this suitable contest. RUSSIAN MINT (1) is one from one around this circuit and may run a big race while fresh. The well-related ALL STASHED UP (8) (full to G3 winner and G2 placed Hidden Wealth) rounds out the selections.
SUGGESTED PLAY: Spartus to go back-to-back.
LIVALITTLE (5) placed in town at the latest effort and should find this assignment a touch easier. Gets the reliable Gollan/Maloney combination and should get a gun run in transit from gate two. Has upside and will be right there when the whips are cracking. SANCTUARY STORM (8) just ran into one better when resuming and has placed two from two when second-up in the past. Respect from the Archibald camp. HAZEY HILL (1) is one from one over this track and trip and is sure to give backers a sight up on speed. Top-three conveyance. The well-related RUGBY (7) (half to G3 winner and 3xG2 placed Mallory) will be ready to peak now third-up from the spell and looks a must for the multiples. PELE PRINCESS (9) makes some appeal third-up.
SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning towards Livalittle.
BEFORE ANYONE ELSE (7) saves her best form for this circuit with two wins and a second from just three spins and winning rider Thompson sticks in the saddle following that last-start victory here. Sure to be right there when the judge calls a halt. EXCELOQUENT (13) returned in fine fashion with a dominant win over this course and distance and will have derived a stack of confidence from that outing. Only needs some luck navigating from the sticky draw to be playing a major role in the outcome. WOOSH KA BOOM (4) got the job done at the Gold Coast when resuming and will have taken great benefit from that hit-out. Can go back-to-back without surprising. SAGA'S GIRL (6) has won two of three this campaign and maps well from gate three. Include in calculations. BRUTAL GLORY (10) strips fitter second-up and may earn some minor money.
SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 7,13,4,6.
ATMOSPHERE (1) has a solid record over this distance range with three wins and eight placings from 15 attempts and will be able to sit up on speed jumping from the favourable draw. Nicely placed to play a pivotal role. CASROCK (10) has been plying her trade in harder races in town and should find this task more to her liking. Will be hitting the line with gusto. KODIAK (6) is a bit of a hit or miss type but is more than capable enough on his day. Top-three candidate on best figures. DON PEDRO (2) has been well in the betting at the past couple and gets some weight relief with the 2kg claim. Respect any market confidence. LUTON HOO (12) is a last-start winner out of the Vandyke stable and should be underestimated.
SUGGESTED PLAY: Atmosphere to give a sight.
Open race to close out the card. ZOUSAIN BOLT (1) has won two of his past three starts over this distance range and gets plenty of weight off with the 3kg claim. Handles all going and should be right there at the business end. INTRUDER (3) is two from two over this track and trip and gets the services oif Huxtable in the saddle to hopefully overcome the wide draw. Don't dismiss lightly. TSUKINO (13) has put back-to-back wins together and it's hard to knock mares in form. Top-three apsirations. RUBYDOO (12) has won two from three here and may trouble the judge with any luck in running. AUNTY RENE (2) best of the rest.
SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 1,3,13,12.
