Race 3 — Drinkwise (Bm70) 2220m · jumps Tue 3 Nov, 1:13 pm AEDT

Race preview

Welcome to Doomben for the Drinkwise Benchmark 70 over the staying trip of 2220m on a good four surface under overcast skies. Punters looking at the early win market order will find Draw Attention holding the mantle at the head of affairs, closely followed by Castello Grande, Whatjeudoin', Trusty Bandit, and Giddy Gan's Joy rounding out the pack for this afternoon's contest scheduled to jump at 1:13 pm AEDT.

The yarn behind the market fancies points straight to the top of the order where Draw Attention comes in red-hot for T J Gollan, partnered by Ben E Thompson from barrier two. This runner arrives following an imperious victory by a big margin at the Gold Coast in soft going and a prior win at the Sunshine Coast, suggesting an in-form galloper hard to oppose. Meanwhile, Castello Grande sits next in the market for R L Heathcote from barrier one with Taylor Marshall steering, having flashed home with the fastest overall finishing sectionals last start to grab second in heavy conditions at Eagle Farm over 2200m.

Digging deeper into the form, Whatjeudoin' lines up from barrier three for M A Kropp and Brandon Lerena after securing a solid third in a staggered finish at Eagle Farm over 2443m following a win at this very track. Looking at the speed map, Draw Attention is expected to take up the running from the inside gate, while Castello Grande settles back in the field looking to unleash that sharp turn of foot late in the piece.

AAP

Led, responded strongly to score in small field at Ipswich. Soft proven, heavy unknown. Unplaced from several goes this track and distance. Well placed to run another big race.

ILB

Led and controlled the pace to win by a margin of 1 1/4L last time at Ipswich.

Won by just over 1l over 1m2f at Ipswich (conditions race) last month; others appeal more despite the last time out success.

RSIS

Made every post a winner when winning by a margin of 1 1/4L last run at Ipswich.

AAP

Seasoned performer. Secured third in a staggered finish at Eagle Farm. Ordinary stats at this track and trip. Rates highly.

ILB

Faded at the finish when 3rd last start at Eagle Farm. Could take this out.

Has won here before; could not compete with Trusty Bandit when third over 1m4f at Eagle Farm (handicap) beaten just over 4l three weeks ago; should go close based on the pick of his form.

RSIS

Ran a solid race on the pace before weakening to finish 3rd beaten by 4 1/4L last time at Eagle Farm.

AAP

Racing in great heart. Imperious victory at Gold Coast in choppy conditions. Soft proven, heavy unknown. Red-hot and hard to oppose.

ILB

Ran away with a win by a margin of over 8L last start at Gold Coast and has a good draw. Won last 2 on the bounce. Strong claims and hard to beat.

Career record shows her ability to win (wins-runs record of 3-14) and bidding for a hat-trick; won in emphatic fashion at Gold Coast upped to this trip two weeks ago; very interesting.

RSIS

Had a comfortable win by over 8L last start at Gold Coast and can find a nice position from the draw. Can't knock the form winning 2 in succession. Has a very strong case to be winning.

AAP

Ridden in back half, strong late to fill the minors in sloppy conditions (Bm70) at Eagle Farm over this trip. In the mix.

ILB

Came on strongly when 2nd last start at Eagle Farm and has drawn the rails. Has very good closing speed. Expect support.

Normally pretty consistent; good effort when close up (Eagle Farm) upped to this trip last month; can give it a good shot.

RSIS

Did well to place 2nd last start at Eagle Farm and drawn nicely. Finishes off strongly. Will not be far away.

Ridden back and never a factor at Eagle Farm over today's trip. Look for an improved effort here.

ILB

Was $10.00 and unsatisfactory performance when 7th last start at Eagle Farm. Watch the market moves.

Behind Castello Grande when dropped down to this distance at Eagle Farm last month; this looks a decent race so one to tread carefully with.

RSIS

Started at 9/1 and fairly underwhelming when 7th last start at Eagle Farm.

Unable to make an impression in choppy conditions at Gold Coast. Ordinary stats at this track and over the trip. Not fancied.

ILB

At $11.00 below par performance when 6th last time at Gold Coast but drawn well. Emily Lang is a plus but has to cope with a weight increase.

RSIS

Was 10/1 and well beaten when 6th last run at Gold Coast but will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Emily Lang is a key booking.
