Racing returns to Doomben this Saturday afternoon as the Brisbane Racing Club hosts a very competitive nine-race program. The track was rated as a Soft 5 at the time of acceptances, but with no rain forecast for the rest of the week, a Good 4 surface is expected for the whole meeting. The rail will be pushed out to the +4.5m position for the entire circuit, with the first race scheduled to jump at 11:38am AEST.
Best Bet at Doomben: Atmosphere
After claiming a strong win on stable debut for Jack Bruce, Atmosphere was run down late over 1350m at this track in his most recent start. Angela Jones allowed this son of Lonhro to roll along out in front, but when she asked him for the ultimate effort, he couldn’t go with the top two. Dropping back to 1200m and Jones retaining the ride are both positives, and with even luck, Atmosphere can return to the winners’ circle.
Best Bet
Race 4 – 
#1 Atmosphere (8)
5yo Gelding | T: Jack Bruce | J: Angela Jones (60kg)

Next Best at Doomben: Rockribbed
Rockribbed returns to Brisbane after receiving a torrid run in the Rockhampton Newmarket last start, where the Tony Gollan-trained gelding was caught wide for the entire 1300m journey. This son of Night Of Thunder heads to Doomben for the first time and gains the services of Ryan Maloney. From barrier two, Rockribbed can settle behind the speed, peel off the leader’s heels at the 400m mark, and finish off strongly over 1350m.
Next Best
Race 8 – 
#9 Rockribbed (2)
7yo Gelding | T: Tony Gollan | J: Ryan Maloney (58.5kg)

Best Value at Doomben: Jayanthi
Jayanthi returned from a 19-week spell at this track and trip on July 13, rattling home from the back of the field to finish second behind Liquor. This daughter of Hinchinbrook has strong second-up form (4:2-0-0), while the abundance of speed in this field should suit her get-back-and-run-on racing style. If Boris Thornton can find a back to follow around the home turn, Jayanthi’s blistering turn of foot will give her every chance at good each-way odds with online bookmakers.
Best Value
Race 3 – 
#14 Jayanthi (7)
6yo Mare | T: Matthew Hoysted | J: Boris Thornton (56.5kg)
