Race 4: No.4 Dazelles
The Hazel Fertier-trained galloper is in good touch this preparation and looks well placed here to figure in the finish of this event.
Last start, the Bivouac mare came off a big win at Penola when she finished unplaced in a BM 0-62 over 1200m at Morphettville.
Jordyn Weatherley had the mare settled third, one off the fence without cover to the turn, then in the run home, she never stopped chasing but the metro class opposition told in then as she finished four lengths from the winner.
Back to country racing here, she draws well in gate four and maps to settle just behind the speed with Connor Murtagh as the new pilot.
Down in grade and away from the metro scene here, the four-year-old looks in the mix to bounce back and give this contest a real fright.
Race 5: No.7 So Polite
The Gawler-based galloper is second-up here and down in grade, looks a major player in this event.
Last start, the Grunt mare resumed after 11 weeks in the paddock and did well to finish a close-up third in a BM64 Hcp over 1100m on her home track at Gawler.
Jason Holder pushed forward and had her leading the pack on settling to the turn, then pinched a break on straightening where she looked the winner but was swamped right on the line, leaving her with the Bronze medal in the race.
Drawn well in gate five today, she maps to settle just off the pace and after riding her to both career wins to date, Teagan Voorham returns to steer the ship for this assignment.
Dropping back to BM 0-60 grade here, she is already a winner when second-up and after placing in all four previous runs at the track and distance, the five-year-old looks the one to beat in this contest.
Race 6: No.7 Oui Oui Ma Cherie
The Stuart Gower-trained galloper is two starts back from a 22-week break and now looks set to produce her best in this event.
Last start, the Yes Yes Yes mare showed plenty of improvement off her first-up effort when she beat all but one home in a Class 2 Hcp over 1400m at Murray Bridge.
From gate nine (of 10), Caitlin Jones settled her mid-field but was trapped three-wide to the turn, then carted even wider on straightening, she was the widest of all and in the run home, did a mighty job to finish second, beaten a nose on the line, after covering more ground than the early explorers.
Drawn better here in gate six, she maps to settle near mid-field with cover this time and has Jones at the helm once more.
Already a winner when third-up and fitter for those two runs back, the four-year-old just needs a trouble-free run here and she should prove hard to hold out.
