Murray Bridge   04 Dec 2016
 
GOING: G(4)

Wise Crash Repairs Mdn Plate 904m

Track: GOOD 3   Thunderstorms Early   Rail: Out 2m 1500m to 1000m. 3m Remainder, Sectional 604m.  

Limited exposed form for a speed map but Anabella and Electric Sky are two with proven gate speed. ANABELLA pulled up lame after her latest run so that effort can be forgiven. Had been a close up second at Balaklava when resuming so a return to that sort of form sees her go close in this. ANABELLA will come over and lead and go on the near miss FU at Balaklava. Was backed at Gawler after but pulled up with an issue. Is back after 11 days and expect sharp improvement. ASIMI debuts off a strong city trial and Neilson rides. Finds a winnable race and is sure to go well. FONTEYN LANE also debuts and draws the paint. Gets some gear adjustments off his trials and he may surprise. RON'S DELIGHT and MILITARY FORCES also debut and the market must be watched closely with them as well. SUGGESTED PLAY: Win bet Anabella but keep an eye on the betting on the first starters.

First race starter by Time Thief out of Ritzzbar purchased for $15, 000. Had one public trial prior to this race, when third at Morphettville Parks on November 4 over 1000m. Trial form reads well.

Second-up lame after race; led to the turn and faded badly 9th of 10 runners at Gawler 3yo+ Mdn Nov 23 over 1100m, 4-1/4 len behind Lady Alcatraz with 54.5kg. Take beating.

Facing the starter for the first time. Four-year-old mare by Mint Lane out of M'lady Fonteyn. Trialed a while ago, but recently in a public trial on Nov 4 at Morphettville Parks over 1000m didn't impress. Can go better that trials.

Last outing jumped awkwardly; led to the turn and faded badly 5th of 8 runners at Port Lincoln 3yo Mdn Nov 25 over 1000m, 5-3/4 len behind Galaxy Falls carrying 57.5kg. Start before faded in the straight ran last at Geelong 3yo+ Mdn Nov 13 over 1112m, 18-3/4 len behind Manuel carrying 57kg. Likely to find them too speedy today.
