A huge day of Group 1 racing at Eagle Farm on Saturday but it is one of the support races where we find our best bet.
Garibaldi looks well placed and ready to peak in the Listed Hinkler Handicap over 1200m.
He has been responsible for two good efforts since a spell, running on to miss narrowly fresh before a fourth in G3 company.
He is suited coming back to Listed level and Tim Clark should be able to secure him the run of the race from the inside stall.
Garibaldi put together a string of wins when last in work and is proven third up so looks ready to find that form again.
Converge looks very hard to hold out in the first of the big ones, the J.J. Atkins for the two-year-olds.
He produced the real eye-catcher over 1400m in the Sires when settling last but flashing home to miss by a head.
That race is a traditional lead up to this and his two runs at the mile have produced a Listed win and a G1 placing so he is crying out for the journey again.
