LAY: 1. Tonkawaikon (WIN) for 2 units (Rated at $6.00)
1. Tonkawaikon showed good ability and promise in the past but it hasn’t seemed to come back to the same level and has been disappointing its last few efforts, it is likely to cop some attention from the inside draw and seems under the odds here.

BACK: 1. Taylahs Ace (WIN) for 2 units (Rated at $3.50)
1. Taylahs Ace didn’t have a lot of luck last start and had previously trialled well enough to suggest it would be hard to catch here from the inside draw with most of the main chances drawn considerably worse than it.

GLOBE DERBY PREVIEW AND TIPS | EXPERT TIPS | WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 1ST 2025
RAIL: Sprint lane in Operation TRACK: Fast
Globe Derby Park is an 850m track with a sprint-lane in operation. As far as the smaller harness racing tracks go it is one of the best ones and reasonably fair but tempo still plays a huge part in deciding the winners and like most tracks being up on pace is an advantage.
