Gawler Race 2 - Matrix Solar Solutions Mdn Plate
CATHAY EXPRESS (10) showed talent in her first campaign earlier in the year, and she resumes from a spell with a recent trial win under her belt. The bar plates going on her front hooves is always a query, but any market confidence would be worth following. ARTFUL MAXIMUS (1) resumes from a spell as a gelding for the first time, and now that his mind is firmly focused on racing, he should be an each-way threat, especially with the blinkers on for the first time. GLOCK 'N' ROLL (6) gave a good sight for a long way fresh up at Halidon 12 days ago, and he may try similar front-running tactics here from a good gate. Stick with him. BEWITCHING MISSY (9) resumes from a spell, and her tune-up trials have been good enough. Follow any market confidence. HELLENIC STAR (14) resumes fresh up for the in-form Jessica Tzaferis stable, and he can give this a big shake.

He is resuming after a seven months break. Not seen since he finished last of 13 at Swan Hill Mdn-Sw March 15 over 1600m, 10 len behind So Enchanting carrying 56kg at $201. On debut ran last in a small field at Healesville Pic-Mdn January 31 over 1200m, 8 len behind Reisner with 65kg at $9. Might be better off following this run.

Second-up. First start 4th of 8 in a 3yo+ Mdn-Sw at Clare on November 23 over 1100m, 6 len behind Dora Aurora carrying 56.5kg at $5. Returned from break led but faded 2nd of 10 in a 3yo+ Cg&E Mdn-Sw at Halidon on October 11 over 1200m, 1.3 len behind Brave Fortune with 58kg at $6.50. Likely to measure up again with a repeat performance.

Jumped at very long odds at debut, ran last of 11 in a 3yo+ Mdn-Sw at Murray Bridge on October 3 over 1200m, on a slow track; 10 len behind Yourworstnightmare carrying 58kg at $101. Drawn awkwardly today and is not likely to feature.
