Morphettville Race 1 - Skycity (Bm78)
Michael Hickmott with two of the stable's war horses lining up, including EXALTED FIRE (2) who can win this. He's an 11-time winner who has been back to the trials since a below-par run at Murray Bridge. His prior form in similar races was hard to fault. He gets a handy 3kg claim and can roll along up on the speed to make his own luck. Another talented veteran is MAGNETIC EDGE (4), and he looks to have each-way claims here. He's drawn low and gets in with no weight after the claim. SILENT EMMY (6) is flying, although this is a jump in class. A wet track will aid her chances. LAKE'S FOLLY (3) always needs to be respected in these races, while PETA'S HEART (7) is a progressive type that warrants some thought.

At the latest run struggled in the run home; 6th of 10 at Murray Bridge Bm78 on July 12 over 2000m, slow going 6 len behind Lake's Folly carrying 55.5kg at $5. The run before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 11 at Morphettville Parks Bm78 on June 28 over 1950m, on a slow track; head behind Test The Law carrying 55kg at $7.50. Forgive last start and his prior form is good enough.

Most recently 5th of 9 at Morphettville Parks Bm80 on July 19 over 2250m, slow going 2 len behind Test The Law carrying 53.5kg at $2.50. The race before that favourite; won by 2.5 len at Murray Bridge Bm78 July 12 over 2000m on a soft track defeating Paradise Storm carrying 52.5kg at $9.50. Going well enough to give this a shake.

Chasing a hat-trick. At the latest run won by 3 len at this track Bm68 July 26 over 2000m in the wet defeating Exalted Ruth carrying 53kg at $9. The run before that won by 3.5 len at Bordertown Cl1-Sw June 27 over 2000m in heavy going defeating Bocheeva carrying 57kg at $4.40. In great form and should be right in the thick of things again.

Racing well recently. Last start 4th of 12 at Murray Bridge Bm62 on August 2 over 2000m, on a slow track; 0.6 len behind Bellakai with 56kg at $3.50. The run before that 3rd of 11 at Gawler Nmw-Ly on July 5 over 1700m, on a slow track; 1.75 len behind The Western Front with 54kg at $7.50. Not far away last start. Progressive type but this is a jump in class.
