Brisbane Racing Club will host the second meeting at Doomben Racecourse in four days this Wednesday, with a competitive eight-race card set down for decision. The track is rated as a Soft 5 at the time of acceptances, but with no rain on the forecast, it is expected that the surface will improve into the Good range by raceday. The rail will be pushed out to the +8m position for the entire circuit, with the first race scheduled to jump at 12:36pm AEST.
Best Bet at Doomben: Denied
Denied strung together a hat-trick of wins before finishing a brave second behind Atlantic Ocean at this track and trip on June 26. The Jack Bruce-trained mare led every step of the way but wasn’t able to go with the strong winner. Although she was beaten, the daughter of No Nay Never defeated the rest of the field, and if she replicates that performance here, Denied can return to the winners circle.

Race 6 – 
#6 Denied (9)
4yo Mare | T: Jack Bruce | J: Emily Lang (a3) (58kg)

Next Best at Doomben: Notacluehoworwho
Gary Duncan and Nikita Beriman will combine with Notacluehoworwho for the second straight start, coming off an extremely close runner-up finish behind Set To Shine at Eagle Farm over 1300m first-up. This son of Puissance De Lune was heavily backed with online bookmakers, and he finished off with a blistering turn of foot to just miss in a photo finish. If Beriman can settle in the first four from barrier 11, Notacluehoworwho can break through for his second win of his career.

Next Best Again at Doomben: Mystic Mac
Mystic Mac has finished second in three of his four starts this preparation and now that he strikes a weaker Maiden Handicap over 1200m, the Chris Maegher-trained galloper should be able to break his maiden here. The son of Encryption has shown versatility by leading and settling off the speed, which should give Melea Castle plenty of options from barrier five. If Mystic Mac can settle outside the leader and give strong kick on the home turn, he will prove very hard to run down late.
