GOING: G(4)

Daish Irrigation (Bm75) 1608m

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

Beau's My Boy and The Other Guy can contest the early lead. ON A DREAM has been racing in the city including a win at Morphettville in Saturday grade three runs back at this distance. Solid efforts since and this is his favoured trip so if he produces his best is capable of winning this. ON A DREAM has been solid in the city and will find this a touch easier. Won a Morphettville 70 three back and that reads well for this. BEAU'S MY BOY can lead off the 3 gate and go on the city win three back. Was wide following and prepared to forgive the Clare run last time when favourite. ROWDY RICHARD has been racing well and is at peak and looks up to featuring. THE OTHER GUY for the multiples. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing recent city winner On A Dream.
