This week's Winning Post will be available online here from 3pm Thursday AEST.

The Group 1 action crosses the road from Doomben to Eagle Farm this Saturday as the Queensland carnival gets ready to ring in the winter.

The Kingsford Smith Cup over 1300 metres sees gun Victorian sprinter Jimmysstar shooting for another Group 1, while the staying three-year-olds do battle in the Queensland Derby.

Support features include the Group 2 BRC Sires' Produce for the two-year-old, the Group 3 Fred Best Classic for the three-year-olds, the Premier's Cup, the Lord Mayor's Cup and the Helen Coughlan Stakes.

It's also Lord Mayor's Cup day at Rosehill while the open sprinters lock horns in the Bel Esprit Stakes at Caulfield. The Hyperion Stakes gets top billing at Belmont.

Sunday sees Sandown host the time-honoured Australian Hurdle-Australian Steeple program.

Our form coverage kicks off on Friday with fields, colours, previews and tips for all TAB meetings.

The metro racing this Saturday is at Caulfield in Melbourne, Rosehill in Sydney, Morphettville in Adelaide, Eagle Farm in Brisbane and Belmont in Perth.

Winning Post carries full-colour liftout guides for all those meetings plus Werribee (Vic/SA edition), Kembla Grange (NSW edition) and Ipswich (Qld edition), as well as fields, tips, ratings and/or colours for other TAB Saturday cards.

On Sunday we've got liftout formguides for three more TAB meetings (plus Devonport in the Tassie edition), as well as fields, ratings, tips and colours for a stack more Sunday and Monday programs.

Don't forget Winning Post now carries trackwork reports for four Victorian training tracks, three in Sydney, Morphettville in Adelaide and a general Brisbane report.

Away from the form, we've got news columns from NSW, six Victorian districts, SA and Tasmania.

Our readers have their say on page 4, while elsewhere in the book Shane Templeton reminisces, Paul Richards presents his unique take on the sport, Matt Stewart weighs in on the big issues and Number Cruncher delivers the stats that matter.

Winning Post costs $7.00 and is available Thursday afternoon online ($6), the crack of dawn Friday in shops.
