Just three of the juveniles confirmed in the first at Doomben on Saturday have raceday experience, and betting suggests that there are plenty of live chances.

I am going to stay out of this one from a betting perspective.

This is a drop in class for Tamilaide, and is he primed to return to winning form.

The Adelaide gelding has returned to the races in typically competitive form this time, placing at Ipswich and Eagle Farm before finishing a credible sixth in The Wave at the Gold Coast a fortnight ago.

He is rock-hard fit, drawn ideally and is my best bet on the program.

The strong and consistent Bengal Bandit takes his place in Race 4 at Doomben on Saturday, and he is primed to record another win.

The Brazen Beau gelding hasn’t missed placing in six starts since joining Lauren Abbott’s stable, winning three times, including a dominant performance at Ipswich a fortnight ago.

This is a small rise in class, but he’s rock-hard fit, and it does look the next obvious point of call.

This is one of the tougher races on Saturday’s Doomben program to analyse and there are several key winning chances, including Red Wave.

Red Wave was a consistent performer in town and on the provincial circuit last time, winning in maiden company at Ipswich and unlucky to only just miss at Eagle Farm, most notably.

He has been competitive when fresh previously, and he has had the benefit of a nice trial in the lead-up to his return.

Frosty Mango has finished second at each of her first two starts back this time, and she is ready to strike at Doomben on Saturday.

The Hinchinbrook filly hasn’t finished worse than second at any of her first previous trips to the races, and she was only denied by Starman at her last effort.

I’m expecting that form to hold up and fitter third-up, she’ll take a power of beating in something like this.

This is another wide-open contest with several winning chances, and I think that a horse like Purroni can strike at a nice price ($9 at publish).

Purroni stripped fitter via a fair effort at Eagle Farm when resuming last month, and she returned a far more polished effort to finish second, beaten in a photo by Fanaar here last time out.

Fitter third-up, she’s drawn to receive a nice run in transit, and we can have an each-way play at the price.

Kingston’s Here has recorded two wins from as many starts since resuming, and he can pull off the hat-trick at Doomben on Saturday.

The Rich Enuff gelding was far too good for a BM62 field at the Sunshine Coast when fresh, and he franked that performance and result with another eye-catching effort here at Doomben last time.

There isn’t much difference in between this race and that one in terms of quality, and I can’t find a reason why the horse won’t be in the finish again.
