Morphettville Race 7 - Sportsbet W H Wylie Hcp (L)
Intriguing race with a few different angles. Just don't think SIGNATURE SCENT (6) is a heavy tracker. Well off best after getting too far back last time in the Carlyon Stakes. Best form is more than up to this and ran three very good races here - including a win - earlier this year over the carnival. Gets chance to bounce back. SIR NOW (2) doreen;'t know how to run a bad race. Overcame the wide draw to score in the G3 Behemoth Stakes here last time and is the one to run down off a low draw this time. BASSETT BABE (8) is an emerging type with good form over the autumn including a stakes placing in Melbourne. Returned with a big win and can measure up again. WATCHME WIN (3) has been racing in Melbourne in the Monash and Bletchingly Stakes. Has a strong record back here at home. SMOOTH CHINO (1) comes here with the strong WA form, a great strike-rate, goes very well fresh, is up to stakes class and despite the weight can't be left out.

Resuming after a break of four months. Finished off last campaign third of 10 at Belmont Park in the G3 Belmont Sprint May 16 over 1400m, soft track; 2.5 len behind Western Empire carrying 59kg at $2.60. When resuming last campaign second of 9 at Ascot in the G3 Roma Cup April 4 over 1100m, a neck behind Rope Them In with 58.5kg at $2.45. Has a great strike-rate and has to be included despite the big weight.

Form hard to fault. Comes off a 35 day let-up. Last start favourite; won by 0.8 len in the G3 Behemoth Stakes at this track on August 8 over 1200m on a rain affected track defeating Cicala with 58.5kg at $4.60. Before that rolled along in front then was edged out late 2nd in a small field in a Hcp at this track on July 25 over 1100m, on a slow track; 0.8 len behind Lingani carrying 58kg at $2. Super honest and is the one to run down.

Comes off a 42 day let-up. At the latest run raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 2.25 len in a Bm68 at Morphettville Parks on August 1 over 1000m on a rain affected track defeating Grand Host with 60kg at $5. Before that won by a neck in a Bm76 at Morphettville Parks on July 18 over 1000m on a soft track defeating Vexatious Dancer with 54kg at $13. Flying but would have to improve even further.
