Doomben 10,000 2023 Preview

Track: Good Weather: Fine

All eyes on past Everest winner Giga Kick. Aft Cabin won with authority last start and can go on with things here. Mazu is hard to beat and has plenty of class. Overpass was a surprise fresh winner and just has to hold its form to be going close while Vilana is in the mix on the back of some good efforts.

Doomben 10,000 2023 Runner by Runner

1. Eduardo (11) – SCRATCHED

2. Mazu (7)

Should be around the mark and has been racing in excellent fashion. Hard to see Mazu beating Giga Kick but it can find the placings.

3. A Case Of You (9)

Can’t have.

4. Overpass (10)

Brave win fresh beating a smart filly. Gets the chance to run a place in this.

5. Vilana (1)

Good last start win and does no work from the draw. Hard to beat.

6. Prince Of Boom (5)

Can’t have.

7. Weona Smartone (6)

Prefer in easier.

8. Giga Kick (4)

The retirement of Anamoe see’s Giga Kick one of, if not the best horse in Australia. Let 3 runs just beats these and I expect it to win with any form of luck.
