Q2 Parklands Race 8 - The Q Melbourne Cup 5th Grade F
CAMBLA DIVA (2) was in the money last time at this track (29.97) in a Grade 5, finishing a nose second. Has already won out of this draw. Appeals as a leading chance in this. ROXY CAMBLA (7) pinged the lids and led throughout to score last start (29.97) at this track in Grade 5 over 520m. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Should feature again. BOOM TOWN (8) profiles nicely over this trip.

Charged out of the boxes with a strong early sectional but bumped into one better when runner up (29.97) at this track over 520m. In the money last time and looks well placed to go one better.

Good effort to win last start by 2 lengths over 520m at this track in a handy (29.92), beating Launch Mode. Should be around the mark.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at this track over 520m in 29.97 last start, beating Goldstar Sid. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of the latest win.

Hit the ground running and set it up early last time, clocking 29.96 with a nose win at this track over 520m and making it back to back wins. Can bring up a hat-trick.

Flew the lids with a quick early split but had to settle for the minor money when third (30.04) over 520m at this track. Hasn't been far away. Don't underestimate.
