Queensland Racing will return to Eagle Farm for the second time in four days, as it will host a quickfire six-race card this Wednesday afternoon. With warm weather forecast in the lead-up, the track is expected to improve from the Soft 5 rating at the time of acceptances to the Good range by raceday. The rail will be in the +9m position for the entire circuit, with the opening race scheduled to kick off at 2:18pm AEST.
Best Bet at Eagle Farm: Zakiyya
Chris Waller and Ryan Maloney will combine with Zakiyya for the third straight start as the five-year-old mare seeks to continue her run of form and claim her first victory of the campaign. In her two runs back, this daughter of Siyouni has recorded a third and second-place finish over 1200m and 1350m, where she was running on nicely at the end of both races. Now that she is third-up and rises to 1400m, Maloney should be able to settle closer to the speed from an inside barrier (2) and give Zakiyya every chance to return to the winners circle.

Next Best at Eagle Farm: Andersen
Andersen has filled the placings in both of his career starts to date; however, his last start second was the better of his runs, finishing three lengths behind Street Chase over 1110m at Doomben. The Matthew Hoysted-trained colt overraced slightly during the run and settled on speed, but in the final 300m he couldn’t stay with the winner. This son of Written Tycoon held off the rest of the field, and if he improves his manners second-up, Andersen will go one better here.

Best Value at Eagle Farm: Adalie
Adalie is yet to win this preparation, but the David Vandyke-trained mare has been performing well in strong form races in her two starts back. This daughter of Exceed And Excel settled behind the speed at this track and trip last start and boxed on steadily to finish in fifth place, beaten 1.9 lengths by Super Daisy at massive odds with top horse racing bookmakers. As she hits peak fitness third-up and strikes an easier contest, Adalie will be able to settle on a slow speed and prove hard to run down in the concluding stages.
Best Value
Race 4 – #8 Adalie (9)
5yo Mare | T: David Vandyke | J: Tiffani Brooker (58kg)
