It'll be a long, tiring shift behind the bar at the Sunshine Coast Turf Club tomorrow with 12 races and a massive (typically thirsty) crowd expected.

The concept is an innovative one though, with some races being run on the cushion track (1, 2, 11 and 12) and the rest (including all the feature events) on the regular turf.

Ipswich Cup winner Our Lukas shapes as the bookie's nemesis again - surely he won't be allowed to walk in front this time?

Tomorrow's charity bet

Each week the Smartbet Club places a free $50 bet for charity on its best bet of the day around Australia. We're now punting for a new cause, details of which will appear in the Friday Alert shortly.

Davcon ($2.05 top fluc) helped us get back in the winner's circle last week and took our bank balance to $365.00. Grand Duels (Flemington Race 8) is our best bet of the day tomorrow.

The Queensland winter carnival is winding down for another year but there's still a few highlights on the calendar.

Next Saturday it's back to Eagle Farm for the first meeting of the new Brisbane Racing Club which includes the $150,000 Queensland Cup over 3200m.

Then on Saturday 11 July, history will be made when the brand new Toowoomba cushion track hosts the $150,000 Weetwood Handicap and $100,000 Toowoomba Cup.

As usual, we'll be oncourse every Saturday at the Gold Coast Turf Club to take your bets - either in person or via our freecall telephone service 1800 233 836.
