Doomben Preview – Saturday 11th July 

• Craig Sheppard

The Queensland Racing Carnival may be over for another year, but racing in the Sunshine State rolls on with a competitive nine-race card at Doomben this Saturday. At time of publish, the track is rated a Soft 5, with the rail out 0.5m.

Sandown Lakeside Preview – Wednesday 8th July

• Craig Sheppard

Wednesday’s Sandown Lakeside meeting gives punters an eight-race card to work through, with winter conditions set to play their part. The track was rated a Heavy 8 on Tuesday, but with fine and cold days forecast in the lead-up, there’s every chance it improves slightly by race day while still retaining some give. With the rail out 3m, the set-up may give on-pace runners their chance, particularly if the inside lanes hold together early. Proven wet-track ability and race fitness still look important factors, so let’s get into the preview and try to find a few Sandown Lakeside winners. Race…
