Port Pirie Race 5 - H & P Equipment Hire Pace
MAJOR APDAL (1) looks ready to win after producing a better effort at his latest appearance when runner-up at this circuit and distance, beaten a neck. Peaking third-up and gets the ace draw. Has the ability to take this out. AGRIPPA (3) showed improvement when fourth last start at this venue, beaten 7 metres. Lightly-raced with upside so could progress further. NO LOUISE (4) may be ready to deliver now after improving for third at this circuit and distance two weeks ago. SAL WESTER (5) is in the mix at her first run since finishing third here ten weeks ago.

Two back was well beaten into sixth after being driven well back, behind Rivergum Velox at Globe Derby Park over 1800m on July 6 at $8.50. Then a handy effort when a close second after showing early speed, behind I Need Agirlfriend at this track over 1609m on July 15 at $3.10. Sure to be there at the business end.
