What Eagle Farm Races
Where Eagle Farm Racecourse – 230 Lancaster Rd, Ascot QLD 4007
When Saturday, April 5, 2025
First Race 11:33am AEST

The Brisbane Racing Club will host a 10-race card at Eagle Farm on Saturday afternoon, where the first event is scheduled to jump at 11:33am AEST. With rain forecast in the lead-up to the meeting, the track is expected to remain in the Soft range throughout the day. The rail will be in the +1m position for the entire circuit.

Best Bet at Eagle Farm: Hell

Hell went to a new level last preparation, when the Nick Walsh-trained gelding rattled off four straight victories, including one at Doomben and at this track over 1200m. The son of Hellbent returned from a 16-week spell and recorded a narrow win over 1000m at Rockhampton when carrying a big weight. Now that Hell drops in weight to carry 53kg and will take good fitness benefit from the fresh run, he will prove very hard to run down.

Best Bet

Race 10 – Hell Bolt#13 Hell (3)

4yo Gelding | T: Nick Walsh | J: Emily Lang (a1.5) (53kg)

Next Best at Eagle Farm: Rhythm Of Love

John O’Shea & Tom Charlton have given Rhythm Of Love three barrier trials in readiness for this first-up run, and the last two have been impressive over 1045m and 1000m. This son of Grunt competed in the Group 3 Silver Eagle last start at Rosehill, where he was far from disgraced, finishing 4.6 lengths off Ostraka. Considering he has a strong fresh record (4:2-1-0) and will drop in grade significantly, Rhythym Of Love gets every chance to return with another win.

Next Best

Race 8 – Rhythm Of Love#15 Rhythm Of Love (5)

5yo Mare | T: John O’Shea & Tom Charlton | J: Andrew Mallyon (55.5kg)

Best Value at Eagle Farm: Hector De Maris

Hector Da Maris stormed home from the back of the field over 1600m at this track last start and was very strong through the line. The Billy Healey-trained gelding settled midfield on the fence, and even though he was slightly held up, he let down with a blistering turn of foot in the final 200m. Rising in trip to 1800m second-up is a positive, and at , Hector De Maris is a great each-way bet.

Best Value

Race 2 – Hector De Maris#1 Hector De Maris (12)

7yo Gelding | T: Billy Healey | J: Cejay Graham (60kg)
