Brisbane Cup Form Guide & Tips

(1) Flying Zulu ($4.20)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

Flying Zulu comes off consecutive wins, so we’re not leaving him out of calculations.

He’s unbeaten in two starts at the track and distance, and getting the inside trap adds to his appeal.

Take the each-way odds available with bookmakers.

(2) Explicit (Best Bet – $3.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

Explicit is another runner coming off consecutive wins, which both came over the track and distance.

The two-year-old son of Bernardo won by 4.5 lengths in the Brisbane Cup heat, and that was the most impressive of them all.

The Victorian should be tough to hold out as the favourite.

(3) Good Odds Cobber ($11.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

He has yet to finish outside the placings from five attempts at Albion Park, so he’s a consistent type.

He almost got included as the best roughie, but he’ll be right around the mark at the double-figure odds.

(4) Mepunga Smokey ($14.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

He turned his form around when winning his heat, but we don’t think he’s good enough to keep that going.

Getting trap four doesn’t help his chances, hence the odds.

(5) Smooth Plane ($21.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

He is flying after posting three consecutive wins, including a half-length win as a $2.20 favourite in the heat.

It wasn’t the most impressive heat win, hence the big odds, and after showing good trap speed, he could get run down late.

(6) Lakeview Emily (Best Roughie – $10.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

There is good value with Lakeview Emily, who has been electric this preparation.

She owns three wins from her last four starts, and she is likely to settle back and finish over the top of them.

Getting $10.00 odds is too good to pass up.

(7) Excavation (Best Each Way – $3.70)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

The one-year-old is one of the least experienced runners in the field, but he’s an electric type.

He owns seven wins from 16 starts, with three wins coming over the track and distance.

Improvement isn’t needed to win on Thursday night, and he’s not being left out of calculations at the odds.

(8) Zipping Megatron ($7.50)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

There has been some specking for Zipping Megatron, who owns 11 wins from 18 starts.

It’s tough to overlook that form, but his heat win came from the inside trap, and he needs to cross the entire field.

That could prove his undoing.

(9) Overflow Beau ($6.50)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

A smart type, but he’s unlikely to get a run. Needs a run, and he’s a chance if one of them pulls out.

(10) Kahlo Hayze ($10.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

Second behind Zipping Megatron in the heat, and she needs a minor miracle to get into the field on the second ballot.
