Sunshine Coast Turf Club will host a very competitive eight-race card this Sunday afternoon, with racing set to kick off at 12:40pm AEST. The track was rated as a Good 4 at the time of acceptances and it is expected to stay in the Good range with warm weather forecast across the weekend. The rail will be pushed out to the +7m position for the entire circuit.
Best Bet at Sunshine Coast: Redford
Redford will step out for new trainer Stuart Kendrick off the back of a 37-week spell on Sunday, seeking to maintain his unbeaten start to his career. The son of Snitzel won dominantly in both of his starts at Bathurst and Orange, with the Orange victory being the most impressive as he proved way too good for a Class 1 field and won by 3.8 lengths. James Orman has been booked to ride this guy first-up, and with a nice trial over 850m under his belt, Redford should prove too good once again.
Best Bet
Race 4 – 
#4 Redford (10)
4yo Gelding | T: Stuart Kendrick | J: James Orman (60.5kg)

Next Best at Sunshine Coast: Antonito
Antonito was only just beaten first-up by Mystic Mac at Doomben over 1200m, where the David Vandkye-trained gelding was run over late after leading for most of the journey. This son of Sacred Falls will benefit from his fresh run, and he will appreciate a slower run race with less speed expected in this contest. Damien Thorton will be legged aboard for his first ride on this four-year-old gelding, and if he can find the front and run the race to suit his mount, Antonito will prove hard to run down late.

Best Value at Sunshine Coast: Adalie
David Vandyke has engaged 2kg claiming apprentice Chelsea Baker to ride Adalie first-up following a strong trial win on the inner track at the Sunshine Coast over 850m. This lightly raced five-year-old mare led the field up and wasn’t touched in the final 400m as she held off her rivals to win the trial. The daughter of Exceed And Excel has only missed the placings once from four starts at the track and trip (4:2-1-0), and if Baker can settle behind the speed from barrier two, Adalie can return with a win.
Best Value
Race 6 – 
#2 Adalie (2)
5yo Mare | T: David Vandyke | J: Chelsea Baker (a2) (62.5kg)
