A massive ten-race slate awaits us on the Gold Coast this weekend.
There's over $6 million of prize money on offer at the Gold Coast this Saturday with the running of the Sunlight slot race and plenty of competitive supporting races on the ten-race card.
Our best bet comes up in the $500,000 The Wave in the form of the QLD Oaks placegetter Miss Joelene out of the Kelly Schweida camp.
This daughter of Russian Revolution was lucky to stay on her feet at Eagle Farm last time out but still had the gumption to savage the line to only go down by 3/4's of a length.
Gets the services of visiting hoop Tommy Berry in the saddle and should be cherry-ripe now fifth-up from the spell.
Sticks to the 1800m and should be going very close at around the $4.40 quote.
Our next best features in the $1 million The Syndicate with us landing on the uber-consistent Golden Boom from the Tony Gollan barn.
Remarkably, this Spirit Of Boom progeny is yet to miss the top-five in 16 career outings and doesn't know how to put in a bad one.
He got a confidence-building win in the Listed Bribie last time out and gun jockey Blake Shinn jumps into the saddle. Currently around the $3.60 mark and should put in a usual honest performance.
BRISBANE BEST
Race 7 No. 10 Miss Joelene
Race 8 No. 2 Golden Boom
