A very competitive 10-race card awaits punters at Eagle Farm this Saturday afternoon. With warm and dry conditions forecast in the lead-up, the track is expected to stay at the Good 4 rating that was posted at the time of acceptances. The rail will be pushed out to the +7m position, with the meeting scheduled to kick off at 12:13pm AEST.
Best Bet at Eagle Farm: Millane
Millane kicked off his second preparation in Queensland with a strong victory at this track and trip on February 17. The four-year-old gelding jumped awkwardly and settled towards the rear of the field before making up ground early in the home straight, then sliced his way through the pack to find an inside run before finishing off strongly. As he meets a weaker Class 6 field and Ryan Maloney retains the ride, Millane will go very close to winning again.
Best Bet
Race 8 – #5 Millane (3)
4yo Gelding | T: David Vandyke | J: Ryan Maloney (58.5kg)

Next Best at Eagle Farm: Quothquan
Quothquan was desperately unlucky not to win last start, but he flashed home down the outside to finish second at Doomben over 1350m. This son of Rothesay should enjoy the bigger track at Eagle Farm and the slight rise in distance to 1400m. With Molloy’s 3kg claim and a solid tempo, Quothquan will be flying home late to play a prominent role in the finish.
Next Best
Race 6 – #3 Quothquan (18)
4yo Gelding | T: John Dann | J: Jake Molloy (a3) (58kg)

Best Value at Eagle Farm: Lady Le Da
After a luckless run two starts back, Follow Files readers would have been slightly happier with a nice return on the place line when Lady Le Da flew home to nab third behind Seneschal over 1400m at this track on February 17. The Paul Jenkins-trained mare is working her way up to a win, and now she steps up to 1600m — a distance she has won at before. In what appears to be an open race to end the card, Jim Byrne will let this daughter of Domesday settle where she is comfortable before getting into clear air to finish strongly.
Best Value
Race 10 – #14 Lady Le Da (9)
4yo Mare | T: Paul Jenkins | J: Jim Byrne (55.5kg)
