Doomben Race 7 - Arc Projects Hcp (C1)
CARDONETTE (7) justified the very short quote fresh when lengthening stylishly down the outside at the Gold Coast. Drawn sticky but get a key switch in Thompson, who's 3/3 in the placings when partnering. Ready to convert one of them to a win. CONFORMITY (9) poses a genuine threat fresh after a promising debut prep. Her recent trial win suggests she's come back in great order, though the wide draw could see her get a long way back. DUKE OF ALBEMARLE (10) boasts strong juvenile form, including a Doomben placing in 2YO Open company and experience in the G3 Ken Russell Memorial Classic. Query his fitness though with just one quiet trial under his belt. DRINKWATER (6) won maiden at the Gold Coast convincingly and retains Daniel Moor. Needs to go up a rung but should improve.

Led at Ipswich last start but dropped out to finish last, beaten seven and a half lengths, after going around as an outside chance in the betting.

Returns off a five-week freshening after winning a 4yo+ Maiden over 1000m at Gold Coast, beating Magic Invader by just under two lengths after beginning well and kicking clear. He was beaten by Ciphertext two back when favourite, but that run included an awkward start and keenness. Extra trip asks a question, but the winning form gives him strong claims.

Justified prohibitive odds-on support at Gold Coast last start, winning a Maiden by just over a length despite striking interference and being tightened before producing from back in the field. She had earlier run second to Hello Punters after covering ground, so her consistency is well established. Wide draw is manageable, and her consistency makes her the one to beat.

Finished fifth at Eagle Farm last start, beaten four and a half lengths in Saturday company after being bumped at the start and working home evenly. Her previous Gold Coast second to Over Spray was stronger, beaten just over half a length after racing keenly, and she now gets a 3kg claim with blinkers going on. Honest enough, but the trip query keeps her to each-way claims.

Returns from a six-month break with a Gold Coast trial win behind her, which is a useful pointer given her consistent race record. She was second in a Benchmark 62 at Gold Coast last time, beaten two lengths after coming from a long way back, and had also placed in Benchmark 60 grade at Sunshine Coast. Handles soft ground and looks a key threat.

Returns from a four-month break after running third at Doomben in a 2yo Open, beaten just over four lengths after beginning slowly and covering ground. Two back he contested the G3 Ken Russell Memorial Classic at Gold Coast, so his form has more depth than most Class 1 rivals here. Weight relief and a local trial make him a strong fresh chance.

Returns from a three-month break after finishing sixth in a 2yo Open at Doomben, beaten just over five lengths, with a wide run and difficulty getting clear from the 300m. Her Sunshine Coast third behind Tengun Tommy two back was sound at long odds, and a recent Gold Coast trial second is encouraging. Track-and-trip win gives her an each-way angle.

Made a winning debut at Moree, beating Fratianno by just over two lengths in a Maiden after beginning slowly, finding the front and kicking strongly. Barrier two should help him use that natural speed again, and the favourite SP suggests the result was expected. Harder now and up in trip, but he can run a race.
