Morphettville racing takes place on Saturday, May 10 with a 9-race program set down for Morphettville racetrack.

Race 6: No.2 Arran Bay
Race 7: No.5 New York Lustre
Race 8: No.8 Reserve Bank

We have the best bets picked from across the meeting with a Best Bet and other value selections for Morphettville racetrack.

Race 6: No.2 Arran Bay

The Phillip Stokes-trained Arran Bay has improved with every start this time in and now looks ready to strike in this event.

Last start, the All Too Hard gelding improved enough to beat all but one home in Open company, here over the mile trip.

Third-up that day, he settled mid-field before making his move and taking over inside the final 100m but was grabbed on the line by a swooper, leaving him with second prize.

Tackling his second Group 3 event here, he drops 7kgs from last start and has Tom Stockdale back to take the reins for this assignment.

From gate seven, he maps to cross and settle in the first half-dozen and already a winner when fourth-up, should be at his peak here and looks set to make his mark in this contest.

Race 7: No.5 New York Lustre

The Victorian galloper sees Morphettville for the first time here and brings a glowing resume that suggests she can continue on her winning way in this Group 3 event.

Last start, the well-bred Manhattan Rain mare made it five wins on the trot when first-up off a 12-week spell, she took out a BM78 over 1000m at Moonee Valley.

After settling mid-field early, she finished too strong for them in the run home and took the honours by a length on the line.

Second-up here, she draws well in gate three with Carleen Hefel remaining aboard for this assignment and maps to settle just behind the early speed.

Already a winner when second-up, a trouble-free run here can see the five-year-old claim her first black-type crown in this contest.

Race 8: No.8 Reserve Bank

The Price & Kent partnership saddle-up Reserve Bank here and in current form, looks set to bring up the hat-trick here and take home the Goodwood Hcp trophy.

Last start, the well-bred Capitalist colt made it back-to-back success when he franked his (Listed) Redelva Stakes victory and took out the Group 2 Tobin Bronze Stakes (1200m) just two weeks later.

Jumping from the outside gate (13), he settled mid-field, three-wide without cover before putting in a big finishing sprint to arrive in time and claim victory by 1.5 lengths over the line.

The three-year-old is at his peak now and looks set to go on with it from here and coming off two-straight wins in black-type company, he can give this contest a real shake.
