MORPHETTVILLE PARKS   01 Oct 2016
 
GOING: S(6)

Adelaide Galvanising Ind.-Bm64 1000m

Track: SOFT 7   Mostly Clear   Rail: Out 8m 1000-400. Out 6m to WP. Out 5m Remainder. Sectional 610m. (Pent: 6.89).  

Fairy Nymph and Snitzel Kitty can each lead. Hard to ignore the disclosed form of MR MARKOU. The gelding held his own in some strong races last season and has placed at each of his trials in readiness for this. The gelding is yet to run out of the money first up from two prior fresh efforts. He is drawn the inside and Matthew Poon's 3kg claim helps offset the 59kg impost beautifully. Another tiny field here for the three year olds. There'll be no excuses. MR MARKOU last ran in the Listed Anzac Day Stakes. He's had two trials to be ready and they've made a few gear changes first up. The claim will be important. SAWAIKI ran favourite in both of his starts. Bred to be very good, he's been gelded before starting this campaign. FAST TYCOON debuts after a decent trial. Be no surprise for Lindsay Park to have him ready to go immediately. SUGGESTED PLAY: Win bet Mr Markou. He can hit the ground running.
