The Doomben 10,000 headlines the first Group 1 program of the Brisbane Winter Carnival and a competitive field has been assembled for the 2025 edition.

2025 Doomben 10,000 - Field & Odds

Champions such as Bernborough, Manikato, Apache Cat, Takeover Target and Doomben legend Chief De Beers are all past winners of the race, which dates back to 1933.

At $4.20 with Dabble, Sunshine In Paris heads the Doomben 10,000 market for 2025.

2025 Doomben 10,000 Tips

2025 Doomben 10,000 Best Bet - Benedetta

Blinkers are back on Benedetta for the Doomben 10,000 and Jamie Melham stays aboard the five-year-old following an unlucky All Aged Stakes effort.

She was never fully clear in that 1400m feature, with the mare working home in restricted room and coming back to 1200m is no knock.

Last year's Goodwood winner split Schwarz (has all favours) and Jimmysstar two starts back, while she was luckless in the Newmarket prior to that.

Benedetta is genuine and she can hold form deep into a prep, with her Goodwood triumph coming fifth-up and she completed a recent trial here.

2025 Doomben 10,000 Next Best Bet - Sunshine In Paris

There's no champions among the current Australian sprinters and Sunshine In Paris is as talented as any when right, although she's a little hard to catch.

She again hasn't had much luck at the barrier draw, with the mare needing to overcome another wide alley, but she does get J-Mac back in the saddle.

The superstar hoop was on for her Champions Sprint victory last spring, which was fourth-up and he could be looking for the best ground late.

Blinkers go on Sunshine In Paris for the first time and as a galloper who is often most effective on the fresh side, four weeks between runs is a positive.

2025 Doomben 10,000 Value Bet - Hidden Wealth

He's been somewhat of a 'Ricky Bobby' this campaign (if you're not first, you're last), with two wins and two heavy defeats from four attempts.

Testing ground won't worry Hidden Wealth, as the gelding has won his last two wet track appearances and that includes a Heavy 10 victory first-up.

His overall strike rate is decent and coming back to Doomben could switch easily spark the five-year-old, who is unbeaten from two tries at this track.

Tommy Berry takes back the reins and it's a noteworthy engagement, as Berry has a perfect three-from-three record aboard Hidden Wealth.
