WINNO'S WINNERS: SUNSHINE COAST, JULY 5, 2025

By Darren Winningham | Friday, July 4, 2025

SUNSHINE COAST this week – nine races with the track rated ‘Soft’ and with the rail is in the true position for the entire circuit. I suppose the traffic is always the concern getting here – so leave early just in case!

State of Origin on Wednesday night in Sydney – I have a bold prediction – IF it is a dry surface and no rain – NSW by 16!
