WINNO'S WINNERS: DOOMBEN, AUGUST 17, 2024

By Darren Winningham | Thursday, August 15, 2024

DOOMBEN this week. The track is rated ‘Heavy’. The rail is in the true position for the entire circuit. The weather is supposed to be warm for Saturday – but the rain has been excessive all week in Southeast QLD. With the track probably being a bog – and a question of will we race – I will keep it brief and look for the mudlarks this weekend.

NB: As these selections were made prior to race-day, please check for any changes to track conditions and for any scratchings on the day.
