Eagle Farm will host a nine-race card on Melbourne Cup Day, with the action set to kick off at 12:32pm AEST. The track was rated as a Good 4 at the time of acceptances, and with warm, sunny conditions forecast, the surface is expected to remain in the Good range throughout Tuesday’s meeting. The rail will be pushed out to the +8m position for the entire circuit.
Best Bet at Eagle Farm: Shako
Following a narrow defeat at the Sunshine Coast, Shako will clash with Arisphere for the second time in as many starts; however, the Jack Bruce-trained gelding will have a 2.5kg weight swing in his favour. This son of Epaulette was a dominant winner first-up on September 8, when he stalked the speed before taking over to draw clear and win by 1.3 lengths. If Taylor Marshall can settle Shako in the one-one position from barrier five, they will find themselves in the winners’ circle post-race.
Best Bet
Race 4 – 
#5 Shako (5)
4yo Gelding | T: Jack Bruce | J: Taylor Marshall (56kg)

Next Best at Eagle Farm: Velozes
After a quiet trial at this track on October 22, Velozes is set to return for her second racing preparation. The daughter of I Am Invincible settled on speed and proved way too good for her rivals in maiden class two starts back, and she was far from disgraced next time out in a quality event during the Queensland Racing Carnival. With a strong speed expected, Angela Jones will settle worse than midfield and find a back to follow around the home turn before asking for the ultimate effort.

Race 7 – 
#10 Velozes (12)
4yo Mare | T: Tony Gollan | J: Angela Jones (56kg)

Best Value at Eagle Farm: Flic En Flac
Flic En Flac heads to Eagle Farm on the back of a massive 3.5-length victory at the Sunshine Coast on October 20. The Chris & Corey Munce-trained mare carried a big weight and took a run up the inside rail before switching off the leaders’ heels to run away with a stylish win. The daughter of Frosted will gain a similar run from barrier one in a slightly tougher race, but if she gets the breaks in the final 400m, Flic En Flac could prove to be a great each-way play with horse racing bookmakers.
Best Value
Race 8 – 
#6 Flic En Flac (1)
5yo Mare | T: Chris & Corey Munce | J: Martin Harley (56.5kg)
