Front Page Special For Saturday 9 June 2018

Doomben Race 7 - 7 Live And Free - Even though not having started on a wet track previously, the exciting gelding for John O’Shea can win the Queensland Derby.

He’s by Savabeel whose progeny go well in it and he’s shown good turn of foot since being asked to get over a trip.

With a lovely grounding for the race, Live And Free arrives fresh from dominant wins and the confidence that brings.

Drawing about midfield he will race there and then start to move with 800m to go, sliding around them. We think he’ll have too much dash. He’s more than backable at about the $6 quote each way.
