Better Than Ready currently $6.50/$2.00 on Player
Think it'll give it a real shake!
Only downside is its jumping from Barrier 8..

    Rain Affair should go close, big step up in class for BTR.

    Can't see how Spirit Of Boom can change placings with Buffering.

    Sea Siren way too short.

    One at odds for mine is Rarefied e/w, could easily win this if back to anywhere near his best!

    Main pick for mine is Rain Affair.

    A race that usually favours the front of the pack.

    Agree re: BTR, great odds.

    @LuckyLongshots backed Rarefied last start and got the 10's, not sure it's up to this grade though

    Saying dead track atm, Rarefied best on a good or better track.

    On class you'd have to have Buffering, Rain Affair and Sea Siren.

    BTR the bogey of the field, if he steps up to G1 level he can win.  Trk 3/4, Trk/Dis 1/1 - also is 4/4 on dead/slow tracks.

    Quartet 1.2.7 // 1.2.5.7 // 1.2.3.4.5.7.10 // 1.2.3.4.5.7.10

    I have backed Your Song his last trial was awesome could have stayed in Sydney for a easy win but up at Eagle Farm against a good field and trainer has big wrap on him.

    Rain affair is my pick. Agree Your Song looks promising but think this race to much for him at this stage. Trainer has a habit of going over the top in his opinions of his horses.  Remember Smart missile, strike the stars is another never reached the hype. Im cool in the 1st and Into The Red in the 2nd nice all up to start the day.

    Im having a 5 allways trifecta - too hard to pick!

    Buffering - Rain Affair - Rarefied - Better Than Ready - Your Song

    ... i have left Sea Siren out. dont think it will run top 4!

    All that rain looks to suit Rain Affair. I will be waiting till the last for Doubtfilly, bet of the day at $13

    If it suits Rain Affair, it well and truly suits my ol' fav in TOB - great stats on the slow and heavy

    RA 6/6 on slow or heavy tracks
    TOB 3w3p from 7s on slow tracks and 2/2 on heavy

    This rain has just opened up this race very wide.  TOB hasn't seen a slow track since he was a 4yo!

    I'm on RA and TOB on the nose - good luck with your investments!

    I see Andrew Bensley has tweeted that Your Song will go to stud after the running of the Stradbroke. Quality horse  and would love to see him go on but from the owners point of view im sure they would rather retire him with all the hype surrounding him to maximise his exposure. Sad that all the good ones dont get much of a chance to race but unfortunately you have to do the right thing especially if big dollars are at stake.
