Morphettville Tips

Always tricky with so many first starters. MACCLESFIELD amongst the placegetters last start running third at Murray Bdge and should run fitter for past attempts, leading hope. MOSTLY FOR SHOW first start and has not trialled, include in exotics. GIN SPIRIT first starter and racing without trial, consider in exotics. MORE THAN HOPE first start and has the benefit of a Oakbank trial, capable of getting into the money with a bit of luck.

SILENT SURRENTE comes to hand quickly and placed at Morphettville when last second-up but disappointing last start at the track when resuming, tough to beat. DIVINE FIRE has multiple wins at Morphettville and rates highly with Alana Livesey back on board, consider in exotics. PEARL ADIOS has won at Morphettville and placed three times this prep, capable of getting into the money with a bit of luck. TIPSY VIXEN placed when fresh and ran three lengths back from the winner last start at Murray Bdge, capable of getting into the money with a bit of luck.

ANGEL TORQUE in strong form with two wins from four attempts this campaign and won last start at Murray Bdge, serious player. DANXIA finished two lengths off the winner last start at Geelong when first up, the real danger in the race. TAKING OMAHA in strong form with two wins from nine attempts this campaign and all wins have come when faced with dry ground, could upset. SHADOW EAGLE won last start to break maiden at Morphettville and should race on the speed, place claims.

Can’t imagine one of the top two not winning. RUNAWAY STATEMENT narrowly beaten when heavily backed last start at Murray Bdge. Winner at Murray Bdge and placed in all other outings this prepearation, a winning chance. STOLEN has won at Morphettville Parks and placed once this prep, expect to be right up there. GREENIDGE winner at Naracoorte and placed in all other outings this prepearation, place best. SAINT MICHAEL finished midfield last start at Strathalbyn when resuming and ran fourth at Gawler when last second-up, place claims.

Hard to split the top two picks. BULLS ON PARADE winner at Mount Gambier and placed once this campaign, among the main chances. BABY ALEX 2 from three wins have been in the dry and should run fitter for past attempts, consider. PRICKLY POPPY won once this prep at Murray Bdge three runs back and down in distance, in with a chance. SAN LUCIDO Alan Lai a bonus and all four wins have come in the dry, place only.

JAZZ AFFAIR bolted in last start at Murray Bdge and all four wins have come in the dry, hard to go past. THE GREAT BABY was narrowly beaten as a favourite last start at Morphettville and has three placings from four runs this prep, cannot be ruled out. TEXAN WINDSTORM has placed in two attempts this campaign and amongst the placegetters last start running second at Murray Bdge, cannot be ruled out. KINETIC JEWEL looking for a hatrick after winning two in a row at Morphettville and the track Parks, strong place chance.

EVERYTHING COUNTS has won at Kilmore and placed twice this prep, hard to go past. RABTAT rates highly with Todd Pannell aboard and two from three wins have been in the dry, sneaky chance. PUNCHIN has the speed to overcome a very wide draw, looks threatening. WHATSANAMEGEORGE back from let-up and has two placings from eight runs this prep, could threaten.

Hard to see anything upsetting the top two choices. EXTREMELY LUCKY back from 26 week spell. Won at Morphettville when last fresh and won three of five first-up, one of the main hopes. GOLDRUSH GURU let-up for 12 weeks. Winner of last two at Flemington and Morphettville, consider. PRAIRIE FLOWER last start winner at Murray Bdge and a track specialist winning four times at Morphettville, in with a chance. MRS CHRISSIE just missed as favourite last start at Caulfield Heath and a winner at first outing this prep, cannot be ruled out.

TRAPEZE WARRIOR has the speed to overcome drawing the widest barrier and won once this prep at Moe five runs back, hard to go past. KALASEC was narrowly beaten as a favourite last start at Murray Bdge when first up, don't treat lightly. THE MAGISTRATE has won twice at Morphettville before and Jacob Opperman a bonus, still in this. VEXATIOUS DANCER has three placings from five runs this prep and two from three wins have been in the dry, place only.
