Maryborough – Sunday, 2nd November 2025

R1 – 12:52pm – VSTA Col & Dot Redwood Memorial Trot - 2190m

4 – Enchauffour

6 – Nakedtruth

9 – Keayang Tweetybird

5 – Hilltop Hugh

 

R2 – 1:17pm –Aldebaran Park Gold Bracelet – 2190m 

6 – I Am Wilma

8 – Iron Women

5 – Jilliby Dreamlover

9 – Carla Pixie

 

R3 – 1:52pm – Alabar Farms Matchmaker Mile – 1609m 

9 – Maoris Mac

8 – Rubys Dream

2 – Keayang Brandy

7 – Kyvalleyhoneybunny

 

R4 – 2:24pm – Community Bank Maryborough Trotters Cup (G3) – 2690m 

5 – Jilliby Ballerini

6 – Arcee Phoenix

4 – Pinnie

2 – Keayang Stuka

 

R5 – 2:59pm – Les Chapman Memorial NMW Trot – 1690m 

4 – Mister Blindside

3 – Keayang Lavita

5 – Six Nations

6 – Gee Cee Calder

Strategy:

Mister Blindside has returned in great order this preparation — an impressive first-up winner before working too hard last time at Melton and sticking on gamely. James Herbertson knows him well and will likely allow him to roll forward freely over the short trip. Expect him to take catching.

BACK: 4 Mister Blindside – 2 Units (win)

 

R6 – 3:34pm – Aldebaran Park Redwood Classic (G1) – 2190m 

4 – Notanotha Naughty

2 – Unclad

3 – The Preacher

11 – Jays All That

Strategy:

Notanotha Naughty was outstanding last week off a 10m handicap, beginning safely, sitting parked, and powering clear late. His prior form has been elite, and with further improvement likely, he looks well placed to score again with a clean getaway.

BACK: 4 Notanotha Naughty – 3 Units (win)

 

R7 – 4:14pm – Greg Sugars Memorial Trot – 2190m 

11 – Valtino

8 – Mitchell Wrap

9 – Imperial Command

3 – Mercenary

Strategy:

Valtino is worth forgiving after failing to get the right tempo at Melton when a strong favourite. He meets a near-identical field here and should get the genuine speed required to unleash late. It would be fitting for all connected with the horse to win this race in memory of the late Greg Sugars.

BACK: 11 Valtino – 2 Units (win)

 

R8 – 4:49pm – Yabby Dam Farms Victoria Trotters Derby Final (G1) – 2690m 

5 – Gatesys Gem

11 – Commodus

4 – Muskee

10 – Mecarno

Strategy:

Gatesys Gem has established herself as one of the elite young trotters the past two seasons. She has the speed to find the top and the strength to control this race over the longer trip. Provided she gets even luck, she’s the one they’ll have to chase down.

BACK: 5 Gatesys Gem – 3 Units (win)

 

R9 – 5:29pm – Maryborough & District Advertiser 2yo Maiden Trot – 1690m 

7 – Adelaide Red

3 – Rapta

10 – Narky Intellectual

4 – Nostra Nipotina

 

R10 – 5:58pm – McCardle Transport Pty Ltd 3yo Maiden Trot – 2190m 

9 – That’s My Cardigan

11 – Lady Manche

1 – Me And Zac

5 – Calders Revenge

 

QUADDIE (Races 5-8)
