Strathalbyn Race 1 - Roadside Services And Solutions Mdn Plate
WILD IS THE WIND (5) sets the standard after a sharp debut second at Gawler, where he travelled well, loomed to win and was beaten just over half a length by Out Ontario. The extra ground shouldn't bother and the 3kg claim gives him a further edge. PRETTY MORSEL (10) is the proven grinder, with nine placings from 19 starts, three placings from four runs at this track and two from three at the mile. She was plain in town last start, yet her Murray Bridge run two back had merit after she charged home from well back. MAJESTIC MOSHE (2) brings race fitness and useful ratings support despite being unwanted in the market at recent runs. IRON FRAME (1) was well held on debut, but barrier one, Brooke King and prior trial wins give him some scope to improve into the race. STARSCREAM (4) trialled strongly prior to his return in town. Willing to give another look.

Made little impact on debut at Morphettville, finishing 12th in a Mdn over 1200m after settling midfield and being beaten nine and a half lengths by In All Honesty. The rise to 1600m is new territory and he had no clear excuse there, but barrier one and Brooke King are positives for a $30,000 yearling purchase who had trialled twice before racing. The 1600m is the query.

Worked home late from well back when fifth at Gawler last start, although the margin was still over 11 lengths and he was unwanted in the market. The start prior at Murray Bdge was much weaker, beaten over 19 lengths on soft ground. Recent margins are plain, but the 1600m record gives him a case.

Comes off a fourth at Morphettville where he was beaten six lengths by Shogun Chikara after jumping awkwardly and shifting out late. That was in metro company, so this is a softer assignment, and his previous Gawler fifth had substance after he led and kept on behind Mr Ribtickler. Race fit and capable of running into a placing.

Resumed in Saturday company at Morphettville and finished seventh in a Mdn over 1200m, beaten seven lengths by In All Honesty after covering ground and only keeping on. His previous run at this track came before a break, when sixth as a well-found chance after racing keenly and not quickening. He has been unplaced in all five starts and the 1600m record leaves him more a place hope than a winner. Worth keeping a slot for him in exotics.

Produced the standout recent maiden run on debut at Gawler, sitting just off the lead, travelling strongly and fighting hard when second to Out Ontario, beaten just over half a length. He did race keenly and is untested at 1600m, but the effort had genuine merit at an outside price. Trip is new, but the 3kg claim helps him go one better.

Finished tenth at Morphettville Parks last start in Saturday company, beaten ten lengths after being well back and making no impression. This is an easier meeting, but he was also beaten seven and a half lengths in a Mdn at Morphettville two runs ago and has been unplaced in all six starts. Has to improve sharply.

Was last at Gawler over 1706m, beaten over 17 lengths by Nunya after racing wide throughout, which gives some explanation but not enough to excuse the margin. Her debut at this track was also a long way below the required level, even after being checked and racing wide. Third-up now, but others bring stronger form.

Had some excuse at Morphettville last start when held up around the home turn before finishing sixth, beaten six and a half lengths by Shogun Chikara in metro company. The concern is that she was at long odds there and had also been safely held at Naracoorte two days earlier after beginning slowly. The easier meeting helps, but her maiden record still reads poorly. Looking to others.

Comes in third-up after a disappointing ninth at this track, beaten over 12 lengths by Pure Pelt on soft ground after hanging out around the home turn. Her Halidon fifth two back was fair without being compelling, and she was unwanted in the market last start. Each-way only.

Was below her best when eighth at Morphettville last start, beaten just under seven lengths after being near the top of an open market and hanging in. Her Murray Bdge sixth beforehand reads better than the bare result, as she charged home after covering ground. Last start was plain, but her prior Murray Bdge finish keeps her in this.

Debuts for Michael Hickmott as a $150,000 yearling purchase and has had three trials, the latest at Murray Bdge a few weeks ago. The stable has a solid first-starter profile and is one of the stronger local yards, which earns respect, but her trial margins do not provide a strong push. Trials are only moderate, so watch for market confidence.
