Murray Bridge Race 5 - Spry Civil Construction Stake Pr1 Division1
COMPTON TO AVOID (2) is a talented type who notched her 9th career success when too good (22.87) at Mt Gambier last time. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Hard to go past. COMPTON AVA (7) had been going along well winning a Grade 6 three back then placing at Mt Gambier before missing the frame latest when fifth (30.38) at Mt Gambier. Well placed here and can atone this time. ESCAPADES (5) was a winner two back when racing on speed but drifted back latest and safely held when 7th and beaten 7 lengths at Angle Park (31.45). The form out of last run is most impressive. Warrants plenty of respect. ZINFANDEL COMET (4) placed last start at big odds and is in the mix again.

Didn't make the placings last time at Angle Park (31.97) in a Other, finishing a 14 length fourth. Has performed well off the draw with a win and four places from eight starts. Looks a place chance at best.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fifth last time out over 455m at this track. Doesn't profile as a likely winner.
