Balaklava Race 1 - Gawler Arms Hotel Mdn Plate
ONE MORE STAR (10) made good late inroads on debut last start and is sure to have come on with that run under her belt. Gets a key booking in Crowther and rates a leading chance. PAMIERS (4) failed to live up to market expectations on debut but did catch the eye late. Draws to go back again but should be making his presence felt at the business end. GINGER SINNER (3) showed positive signs in his debut prep but now returns for a new stable. Right in this with any improvement. EFFUSIV (14) went amiss on debut when in the market but her two trials prior to her first start were promising. Can improve sharply at her second start.

Second run back. First-up after eight months 6th of 8 at Broken Hill Mdn-Sw on March 15 over 900m, 8 len behind Light And Tangy carrying 59kg at $2.80. Previously second-up ran last of 12 at Mt Gambier 3yo+ Mdn Hcp on April 24 over 1205m, slow going 22 len behind Longwarry carrying 57kg at $26. No easier this time and is likely to struggle.

Previously second-up second last of 13 at Morphettville 4yo+ Mdn-Sw on October 5 over 1050m, 9 len behind Boltonova with 53kg at $41. Should do better this time with the run under her belt.

Second run back. Comes off a 41-day let-up. First-up after four months sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 10 at Kingscote 3yo+ Mdn Hcp on February 20 over 1050m, 2.25 len behind Footprints carrying 57.5kg at $3.20. Previously second-up 2nd of 14 at this track 4yo+ Mdn-Sw on August 21 over 1050m, on a slow track; 3 len behind Mine All Mine carrying 56kg at $11. Likely improver that rates an each-way chance.

At the latest run struggled in the run home; 6th of 14 at Strathalbyn 3yo+ Mdn-Sw on March 26 over 1200m, 6 len behind Top Of The Ridge with 57kg at $11. The start before that sat behind the speed prior to fading 7th of 10 at Murray Bridge 2yo+ Mdn-Sw on March 8 over 1000m, 5 len behind Secret Wonder with 57kg at $8. Wait until he produces the goods on race day.

On debut ninth of 14 at Morphettville 3yo Mdn-Sw August 31 over 1050m, soft track; 11 len behind Duchess Of Sussex carrying 52.5kg at $81. Prefer to see how she returns.
