Doomben Race 3 - XXXX (Bm85)
AKKADIAN EMPEROR (3) gets the nod after resuming with a strong-finishing third at Eagle Farm last month. Suspect he will relish the rise in trip with that run under his belt and he can add to his good Doomben record. OUR ANCHORAGE (1) has tackled some pretty handy opposition back in Sydney since resuming and will get a pleasant surprise when he scans the mounting yard. Gets an important 2kg claim to aid the big weight and will run the trip. Big danger. THINKHARDANDFAST (9) is yet to strike this campaign but gets in at featherweight and is sure to punch up from the inside draw and give them something to catch. PRINCE LEVI (2) doesn't win out of turn but comes through stronger racing and drops back to a pet trip. Isn't without a winning hope. BECAMO (7) is in good touch and can't be left out of exotics, while KIPLING'S JOURNEY (5) could relish this sharp rise in trip at this point of the prep.

Has been below his best in two BM88 runs at Rosehill, finishing sixth last start behind Anthracite after settling rearward and working home fairly at big odds. The run prior was another plain effort behind Pinhole, though he did strike an early block. Drops to BM85 grade now, has three wins at this distance and handles wet ground, so a rebound would make him a genuine threat. Looms a genuine threat.

Was not far away in the Listed Queensland Cup at Eagle Farm last start, finishing seventh behind Chillaxing and beaten just under three lengths over 2400m on soft ground. His Toowoomba Quality run two back was less convincing, but he returns to a distance where he has won twice and has winning form at this track and trip. Place claims if he sharpens up.

Was last in a BM78 at Eagle Farm on heavy ground last week, beaten over 11 lengths after being slow away and never looking likely. His previous Toowoomba run was also plain when last of seven and lacking a change of gears. Weight relief helps, but the rise in grade makes this a tough task.

Returns from a five-week let-up after a strong third in an Open at Lismore, beaten just over a length by Carravilla despite racing wide throughout. He had also placed in Open company at Murwillumbah, so the recent consistency is sound. Proven at this track and distance and handles wet ground.

Comes off a Gold Coast Open win on soft ground, beating Out Of Luck by just over a length as favourite, though he did race keenly early. His previous Gold Coast Poly third in BM70 grade was fair without being dominant. The class drop helps, but he has not raced at around 2020m before and the wide draw adds enough doubt to frame him more as a place hope. Not without his chance.

Kept on for third in a BM78 at Eagle Farm last start, beaten two and a half lengths by Samarelle after racing wide from the 900m. That followed a strong BM78 win at the same venue when he beat Outburst despite beginning slowly and being held up. Up to BM85, but a live place chance.

Worked home nicely from well back when fifth in a BM62 at Ipswich last start, beaten five lengths after being unwanted in the market. His Toowoomba fourth in BM58 grade two back was similar, making ground without threatening. The weight relief is useful, but he rises sharply in grade and is unplaced from three starts at the distance, so others appeal more strongly. Not this time.

Was fourth to Awaygoesthebunny in a Gold Coast Open last start, beaten just under three lengths over 1800m on soft ground. Two back at Toowoomba she led and weakened in BM70 grade, so the latest effort was a step back in the right direction. Looks suited to running another honest race.

Charged home for fourth in a BM65 at Sunshine Coast last start, beaten two and a half lengths as favourite in an open market. He had also closed well when fourth in BM60 grade at Gold Coast, so the recent efforts have been honest. Minor claims look the ceiling.
