Eagle Farm Race 5 - XXXX (Bm78)
SAMARELLE (8) flashed home fresh under the big weight behind a smart one at Warwick Farm, then relished the mile second-up when scoring with a bit up her sleeve. The rise to 1800m looks perfect for her now and she's the one to beat. BARBRAY (3) is the clear danger after missing by a lip at Toowoomba, having also been held up when favourite two back. Has been low-flying since joining the QLD satellite stable and finds another nice race. MIRRA IMPACT (5) was sound behind BARBRAY at Toowoomba and gets a small swing over him at the weights. The trip remains a query. BECAMO (4) is shooting for the hat-trick and deserves obvious respect.

Returns from a lengthy spell after a difficult jumping campaign, having failed to finish in a Hurdle at Hamilton and been beaten out of sight in a 3yo+ Maiden Hurdle at Warrnambool. Two trials since last racing help from a readiness viewpoint, and his overall career record is sound, but he has been unplaced in four runs over the past 12 months. Unlikely to get involved.

Went within a head of winning a Benchmark 85 at Toowoomba, despite beginning slowly and being on heels near the 300m. He had also been held up when fifth as favourite at Doomben, beaten only a length and a half by Liberty Park. Clear winning chance with that form.

Arrives in winning form after scoring at this track, where he began slowly, was held up around the home turn and still beat Outburst by just over half a length. That followed a Benchmark 70 win at Sunshine Coast on soft ground, so his current form is hard to fault. Wide draw is the query, but place claims are genuine.

Held third in a Benchmark 85 at Toowoomba last start, beaten just over a length after tracking the speed and only being run down late. He was below that at this venue in NMW grade two back, but the market has respected him at recent runs and he handles wet ground. The 1800m record is the knock, but he has the form to press hard.

Backs up quickly after finishing fifth at this track over 1600m on soft ground, where he sat handy at big odds and faded late. Two back, he was seventh in an Open at Dalby after again racing near the speed without finishing off. Others have stronger recent form.

Was close enough at Gold Coast last start over 2200m but failed to quicken and finished second last, beaten four and a half lengths by Demarcay. His previous Gold Coast win in Class 4 grade was sound, beating Shape Of Water as favourite, and the return to 1800m suits on his record. He still has to rebound sharply from that plain latest effort. Looking elsewhere.

Made the right progression second-up at Warwick Farm, winning over 1600m on soft ground as favourite despite early crowding and a bump on the home turn. She had worked home well for second there first-up in a 3yo+ FM Benchmark 72, and now arrives third-up with a 1.5kg claim. First go at 1800m is a query, but she sets the standard.

Worked home evenly for fourth over 2200m at Gold Coast last start, beaten two and a half lengths by Demarcay at outside odds. The previous run at this venue was below expectations when tenth in a Benchmark 70, but his record at this track and distance is a useful reference point. Wide draw keeps him more a place hope.

Picked up late from the rear at Toowoomba in a Benchmark 70 but was still beaten just over five lengths after starting near the top of betting. His Doomben return over 1350m was also midfield at best, though he is third-up now, gets weight relief and has won around 1800m. Thompson's booking adds confidence and he looms a winning hope.
