Eagle Farm experiences a massive day on Saturday with Group 1 level races like the Stradbroke Handicap and the J.J Atkins, along with Group 2 level races such as The Q22 and Brisbane Cup for the stayers.
There will be a total of 18 runners with five additional emergencies in the full field for The Stradbroke. It is expected that Yellowbrick Road and Munhamek, who are key contenders, will not make it to the final field.
Vilana will be ridden by James McDonald while Aft Cabin will be handled by Kerrin McEvoy. Rachel King has been assigned to ride the three-year-old Hawaii Five Oh due to its 49.5kg weight.

The odds are in favor of Make A Call, who has been deemed the favorite by Topsport at $5, followed closely by Tannhauser, Congregation, Azula, Chrysaor, Cifrado, Miracle Of Love, and Snapback.
