COOL MAGNUM (1) will likely control the race from the low barrier and brings a win and a lip defeat from The Parks. Was a 2-1 favourite the latest and racing at peak fitness can bounce back. ANNIKA (3) will be better for the two runs this preparation. She has more up the sleeve and Vorster is a key jockey switch. SCARLET RIVER (5) found her best form winning the 54 easily at Halidon. This is tougher but carries a feather weight with the 3kg claim. HYPERCANE (2) resumes for the new barn and is up to this at best. The small claim is handy and the race-day betting will tell plenty with him. Ditto VICTORY BANDIT (4) who is a capable middle distance galloper on resumption. Is likely to need it but needs to be kept safe.

LAKE TITICACA (11) is in a top barn and won a trial before coming from the back beaten 3.2L at The Parks on debut. She's trialled well at the track since and fitter finds a winnable assignment. Tougher sorting the rest. HI CARL (2) just battled at The Bridge as favourite and then got too far back at Halidon when well out of the market. Gets a key jockey switch to Pannell suggesting he'll go better. MR NAFPLION (3) is a former Victorian who didn't get into it first-up and long odds. His best is certainly good enough and the betting should indicate if he's going to show more. QUIZZLE (4) resumes with Holder booked and has shown enough to consider.

SIPSMITH (5) just missed at Gawler before the break and then won a trial before resuming in a Saturday Maiden and looking in need of it. Gets Holder first time and fitter looks the one to beat in a weak race. FINAL REIGN (1) debuts for a leading barn and expect him to be better than the trial finishes suggest. He's been gelded since and Crowther is booked. Draws out but the track is spacious. The race-day betting will tell plenty. VICTORY TIME (7) gets back but he showed enough at Gawler two-back to say he's a hope. Has placed in a Parks trial since and comes back to a sprint. Risks getting strung up from the rails gate. SHEMA (11) is a former Victorian back after 40 days for the Carrison barn. Needs to improve but keep safe. ZILX (8) has a 4kg claim and just missed at Jamestown. In the mix.

Tricky. Of the raced the best chances are emergencies. DAUNTING DECISION (15) is in a leading barn and has had two starts for two near-misses. Draws to advantage and appeals. Stablemate POMPEII EMPIRE (17) has raced favourite both race-starts but was plain first-up at the Parks. The debut effort in the Morphettville Open 2 rates well and the blinkers go on first time. Draws out and will need a good ride. FAMOUS PRINCE (16) has been briefly freshened following two threatening starts this preparation. Has the blinkers again and is likely to push forward. OPAL BEACH (5) resumes and just missed at Port Lincoln on debut. Gets the visors first time and Crowther is booked. Will be naturally improved and keep safe. LUCKY FORTUNA (8) debuts and trialled sharply here. Looks set-up for a bold effort. TOSEN LAD (6) debuts as a gelding off a Murray Bridge trial placing. No surprise if he goes well.

KONG (1) brings a string of close-up finishes in stronger grade. Has an advantageous gate and keeps a 3kg claim. He's the one to beat. MAGIC PHANTOM (4) presents as the danger building on the comfortable 58 Gawler win. Has a low gate and the 4kg claim brings him right into it. BRAZILLIANT (3) has a 3kg claim and brings a 58 win from Jamestown. This is tougher. DEFACTOR (2) resumes and is a speedy galloper who will give a sight.

SEA WITNESS (3) is a leader who was nudged out twice before delivering the win this grade at The Parks. Keeps improving and can be winning again. MANAGE THE CYCLE (9) raced favourite in a 62 at The Parks and had no luck. The two before read well for this and he has weight relief this grade. Draws a low gate and can form the quinella. VIDUKA (1) has been away 410 days but has trialled well for his resumption and would be a strong chance at best. It's an ask but the 3kg claim brings him into it. CLASSY KENNY (7) was just beaten at Benalla on the heavy following the placing here. Likes wet tracks but can't be ruled out.

TEXAN WINDSTORM (3) has been racing in stronger and go on the 1L defeat two-back at The Parks. He will come over and ride the speed and is suited. IS THAT SO (4) is a leader who won at Bordertown before being run over late here a month ago. The shorter sprint suits and he's a chance to bounce. INDY MAGIC (2) peaks and is in light with the 3kg claim. He'd be in the finish but gives away a start and that's proving costly. CENTRE SCOOTA (7) will be much better second-up on a dryer surface. Has a wide gate but Vorster's booking is a positive. In the mix.

A tough end to the program. ROCK HARD (16) ran his best race beaten 1L at Gawler in stronger. He will ride the speed and the 2kg claim helps with the weight lift. Hard to beat if he makes the field. Ditto PRINCESS SALLY (15) draws the outside but she was tracking well before the Jamestown flop. Forgiving that and is suited by the long run-in here. SAND CAT (11) is hard to catch but the veteran's best would have her in it and she goes well this track.
