Mitch Ebeyer's Thursday Focus and best bets at Q2 Parklands (23/10)
Mitch Ebeyer • October 23rd, 2025 7:36 pm

Aren’t we absolutely flying towards Christmas and 2026 but we’re also flying to some big races on the racing calendar which I’m sure some stars of the track from Queensland will be targeted towards.
Tonight though we’re heading to Q1 Lakeside for 12 races on what is a really nice card of racing. The first race is penned for 7:22pm and the lucky last is scheduled for 11:08pm.
Feature races galore but none more important than the Ipswich Derby & Futurity Finals.
Tune into SEN Track 1593am from 6-10pm for all the racing action, tips and banter.
BEST BETS
R6 N8 ZIPPING LEE
Box 8 bandit and was a certainty beat last outing. Lost momentum on the first turn last week when belted by the 8 and ran on well after that. 66% win record off the pink, great overall time at the track and loves the Q1 Lakeside. Key to the chances are the 6 leading and carting us into the race!
R7 N3 BLUE BLEND
Luckless of a wide draw last start, draws inside and has class oozing! Moral beat last start when held wide for a large portion of the run, untouched wins by panels. Will be better for that run, another run at the Q1 after a string of runs at Capalaba.
R9 N6 FANCIFUL
Explosive type who is 2 from 2 at the Q2 and finds a race with minimal to no early speed. Expect to carve to the lead and take some running down. 29.73 last outing is slick, repeats that goodnight nurse.
VALUE BETS
R5 N7 AERATION
Impressive type who keeps thriving race to race. Has explosive speed which is suited up to 457m here tonight. Moderate speed in the field and expect to carve across from the wide draw and lead comfortably. Has form off inside and outside draws, runs time and knows how to win! Keen as!!
R10 N2 ZIPPING SNEED
Classy type who has had zero luck of box draws for a while and gets a rails opportunity here tonight. Has to avoid the 1 early as it will look to shift up the track to the middle of the track. Only missed a place once off draws 1-3 so stats say it’s drawn perfectly! Overs each way!!
