On debut. Two-year-old gelding by Fiorente out of Ruby Trois. Trialled recently when out of the placings over 950m at Murray Bridge June 23. Others make more appeal.

Was as a despised roughie at debut, 11th of 14 at Morphettville Parks 2yo Plate (C1) on June 11 over 1000m, on a slow track; 12 len behind Gold Bucket with 53kg at $101. Cannot enthuse after that sub-standard performance.

Third-up today. Resuming made ground from midfield; 2nd of 14 at Morphettville Parks 2yo Plate (C1) on June 11 over 1000m, slow going nose behind Gold Bucket with 54kg at $10. Second-up made some head-way from midfield; 3rd of 11 at Morphettville 2yo (Bm64) on June 25 over 1100m, on a slow track; 1.4 len behind The Guava with 55kg at $8. Forward showing expected.

Keen to be with TEST THE LAW (1) in the opener. He was beaten as an odds on favourite last time out at this track and distance but is a much more attractive price this time after a strong maiden win. Has race experience and fitness over most and should go close. KLABEL (7) is the danger. He's won a trial in dominant fashion leading in and could be quite smart. TAPINFORPAR (3) stuck on well on debut at Morphettville and can figure with natural improvement, as can SOAMES (4) who is in a similar boat after a sound debut.
Useful type. Last start slowly away; came home strongly from last on the turn; 3rd of 8 at Sandown-Hillside Open Hcp on June 11 over 1000m, on rain affected going; 4 len behind Ashford Street carrying 55.5kg at $26. The run before that eased back early on 9th of 12 (tightened for room; eased concluding stages; not fully tested) at Morphettville in the G3 D C McKay on May 7 over 1100m, slow going 2.75 len behind Free Of Debt carrying 54kg at $21. Definite winning chance. Keep safe.

Returns from the paddock today. Finished off last preparation began awkwardly; fifth of 8 at Morphettville Parks (Bm82) November 20 over 1000m, soft track; 4 len behind Tequila Time carrying 54kg at $8.50. When resuming last campaign third of 12 at Morphettville (Bm72) May 15 2021 over 1050m, soft track; 0.5 len behind Trygve with 57kg at $31. Solid return wouldn't surprise.

Most recently sat on the speed throughout before fading to run last of 15 at this track (Bm68) on June 18 over 1200m, on a slow track; 11 len behind Montign carrying 59kg at $61. Before that hung in in straight; raced on the pace before fading second last of 10 at Moe 2yo+ (Bm64) on May 17 over 1200m, slow going 4 len behind Burton Street carrying 61.5kg at $5.50. Will need plenty of improvement to feature.

At the latest run laid out in straight; held ground to the line with blinkers first time; 3rd of 9 at Gawler (Bm58) on June 22 over 1100m, on a wet track; 7 len behind Deevine with 57kg at $21. The race before that hung out on straightening; sat behind the speed prior to fading to run last of 10 at Balaklava Hcp (58) on June 8 over 1050m, on a wet track; 28 len behind Ashady Past carrying 57.5kg at $5.50. Tricky assignment.

Tricky assignment.
Tough race. Siding with ALLEBOOM (2) who flopped first up on heavy ground before a much better effort last time at this track and distance when third in a stronger race. Looks well placed here with the 3kg claim and will take catching at peak fitness. GREAT LEVELLER (3) typically runs well when fresh and did win first up last time in. Likely tracks the leader and can win. SHAMINO (1) can be a bit of an enigma but his best is certainly good enough. The run at Sandown-Hillside last time is good enough for this. AADELAD (4) next best from LITCHFIELD COUNTY (5) who didn't quite come up last preparation but is good enough.
Dual acceptor. Useful gelding. At the latest run favourite; won by 1.0 len at Albury Open (Bm81) June 20 over 1610m in the wet defeating Bell's Innocent carrying 61.5kg at $1.70. Before that 6th of 11 at Sandown-Hillside 2yo+ (Bm84) on June 11 over 1300m, on rain affected going; 5 len behind Umgawa with 57kg at $8. Last-start winner worth including

Second run back. First-up after four months held up near 500m; 4th of 11 at Flemington 4yo+ M (Bm90) on June 18 over 1420m, slow going 2.75 len behind Grande Rumore with 52.5kg at $26. Previously second-up settled well back; won by 1.5 len at this track (Bm78) January 1 over 1800m defeating Caliburn carrying 58kg at $3.80. Likely improver.

Another wide open race. At the each-way quote, SCOTTISH DANCER (2) goes on top. He's been racing well without winning and this is a fairly sharp drop in class from recent runs. The extra trip looks ideal now and he should be in the finish again. LAKE'S FOLLY (4) hasn't been far away in recent runs, closing off well as usual last time. He's untested past a mile but may appreciate it. ICHIBANSAN (6) drops back slightly in trip after a sound effort over 2000m last time. He maps well and can win. BEA TEMPTED (3) was solid first up at Flemington and will improve with fitness and the extra trip.
Useful mare. At the latest run lost a plate; came from midfield; 3rd of 11 at this track (Rs0mw) on June 18 over 1200m, slow going 3.5 len behind Lumber Punk carrying 57kg at $4.80. Before that hampered near 200m; ran on from midfield; 2nd of 12 at Morphettville Parks (Bm68) on June 4 over 1250m, on heavy track; 2 len behind Agrimony with 58kg at $5.50. Close to a win. Should run well again.

Last start lost a plate and began awkwardly; 6th of 10 at Gawler 2yo+ Mdn on June 22 over 1200m, on rain affected going; 9 len behind Barbaline with 56kg at $11. The start before that keen; 3rd of 9 at Strathalbyn 2yo+ Mdn on June 15 over 1100m, in the wet; 0.7 len behind Remarkables with 56kg at $4. The 2kg claim won't be enough to put him into contention.

Needs to improve to trouble the top handful.

SO SAY ANGEL (1) should prove tough to beat. She's been racing well this time in without winning and drops in class for this. This is her first go at 1400m but that shouldn't be an issue and she might just be a bit too classy for these. AROUND THE HORN (5) is only lightly raced and comes here first up. He's shown enough talent to be competitive at his best. HEADPHONES (11) and CANIDAE (7) virtually crossed the line together last time and should be thereabouts in a slightly easier race.
Returns from the paddock today. Finished off last campaign ninth of 13 at Morphettville (Bm68) February 26 over 1800m, 7 len behind Morty with 55.5kg at $4.50. Previous preparation first-up won by 1.0 len Strathalbyn (Bm58) December 29 over 1350m defeating Rialtor with 59kg at $7.50. Form shown last campaign makes for good reading.

HASSLEFREE (2) narrowly on top. He stuck on well last time when fifth over this track and distance. Draws much better today and should give himself every chance on the pace. YURI ROYALE (1) is a danger. He generally runs well fresh and the 1400m looks a nice starting point. He's proven in this class and it wouldn't shock to see him make a winning return. SOWETO HAZE (3) wasn't far away at Donald last start. Doesn't win out of turn but should be thereabouts again. ZOUSTORM (13) might be the best roughie if the track isn't too wet.
Form hard to fault. Last start hampered near 300m; 3rd of 8 at Flemington in the LR A.R. Creswick on June 18 over 1200m, slow going 2 len behind Passive Aggressive carrying 57kg at $6. The start before that won by 4.5 len at this track 3yo (Bm70) May 28 over 1200m on a rain affected track defeating Queman carrying 61kg at $2.90. Capable of big final splits.

Very keen on KARACASU (1) who should be putting these away. He was dominant over this track and distance two back, putting up a strong rating. He was well fancied in the Listed Creswick Stakes at Flemington last time and probably runs second with a better passage. Gets in well at the weights and should win. EYES NEVER LIE (7) is a handy sprinter who comes here fresh. She won easily first up last time in and gets 4.5kg off the favourite. LEGLESS LADY (6) has won her last two and is hard to knock, while QUEMAN (4) has won a recent trial in dominant fashion but has 4.5 lengths to make up on Karacasu.
Useful mare. Most recently lame and ordered to trial; faded in the straight 6th of 11 at this track (Bm78) on June 18 over 1400m, on a slow track; 3 len behind Aiguilette carrying 56kg at $7.50. Before that raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 0.5 len at Morphettville Parks (Bm68) June 11 over 1400m in soft going defeating Yanacocha with 59kg at $10. Thereabouts last start and looks a definite winning hope.

ANGASTON (3) might not be hopeless each-way. 1200m is as short as he wants it, but he's run well in stronger races over 1400m that would go close here. He's trialled quite well and can run well fresh. JAAMINT (2) pulled up lame last start over 1400m after fading late. Back to 1200m looks no issue and he'll take catching. PIMM'S PARTY (9) has mixed her form this time in but is capable at her best and was held up last time. ZOULAH (10) was good first up over 1000m in a stronger race and the extra trip will suit.
Last start eased down and rider concerned with action; second last of 11 at Mornington (Bm78) on June 13 over 2000m, on heavy track; 20 len behind Sign Seal Deliver carrying 57kg at $61. Before that raced behind the speed prior to fading second last of 10 at Sandown-Lakeside (Bm78) on May 22 over 2100m, 10 len behind Reuber with 55kg at $31. Will need plenty of improvement to feature.

Chasing a hat-trick. Last start was well back until straightening; raced back then made ground from the turn; won by a long-neck at Morphettville (Bm78) June 25 over 2500m on a soft track defeating Lord Bouzeron carrying 54kg at $17. The run before that won by 2 len at this track (Bm58) June 13 over 2500m on a rain affected track defeating Azzureous carrying 61.5kg at $8.50. Can easily finish right over the top of these.

Sticking with LORD BOUZERON (1) who kicked clear last week only to be run down late in the piece. Drops in class and offsets the weight rise with a handy 3kg claim. He'll lead from barrier two and make his own luck again. ZOFFALA (5) tried hard at Swan Hill over 2400m last start in an improved effort. He can build on that and go well again here. PERFECT ILLUSION (12) closed off well for third last start over 2000m here and should have no issue with the trip. CAPRICORN RIDGE (4) won nicely two back over 2250m before struggling last week. He can improve.

SET TO PROPHET (10) is lightly raced and on the up after winning strongly at Donald last start over 1350m. Interesting to see him step out to 1600m for the first time but the way he finished off last time it should be okay, and the Freedman stable know what they're doing. UNLACED (7) is a danger. He led and kicked away last start in an improved effort and if able to dictate again will take catching. TONGSAI BOSS (1) has been racing well in higher grade, boxing on for second last time over 1400m. He's better suited again at the mile. BIG SUE (9) has won two from his last three and must be in the mix again.
Last start began awkwardly and keen; ran on from midfield; 3rd of 12 at Morphettville (Bm68) on June 25 over 1050m, on a slow track; 2 len behind Jabali Ridge carrying 58kg at $81.

Looks tested again.

Finished off last campaign when last of 12 (hung out middle stages; eased down; lame) at Morphettville (Bm60) October 16 over 1100m, soft track; 21 len behind Outpost with 59kg at $17. First up last campaign held up near turn; second last of 10 at this track 3yo+ Mdn July 3 over 1000m, soft track; 8 len behind Noname Lane with 56kg at $11.

Genuine chance on the back of the last effort.

The race before that second last of 9 at Kerang (Bm64) on April 16 over 1100m, 11 len behind Jabali Ridge with 52.5kg at $9. Even the minor placings look out of reach.

Resumes after three-and-a-half months. Finished off last campaign eighth of 11 at this track (Bm62) March 27 over 1200m, 7 len behind Mr Metrics carrying 58.5kg at $101.

Open race to finish but OAKFIELD GERONIMO (6) makes the most appeal. He's run second at his last two and seems to have found his groove this time in sticking to the 1000m. He should track the speed and be in the finish. JIMMYS EDGE (8) was a strong maiden winner at Oakbank before a spell. He hasn't been seen in over a year but has trialled well and should be respected. DAUNTING MAGIC (4) is lightly raced who will strip fitter after an even showing first up. MR HAVE A CHAT (3) appreciated a drop in class and distance when winning over 900m here last time and might be ready to go on with it now.
