LADBROKES BET TICKER PACE 1800m
JUST BECCY (4) is lightly raced but progressing well and looks close to a win following back-to-back placings, last time chasing along the sprint lane to finish a head from the winner in second at Port Pirie. Big chance to break through. THE MAJOR DANGER (1) didn't perform to market expectations last time but there was merit in the prior effort when not far from the placegetters. Gets the ace draw again so may be worth another chance. BLINGADINGDING (6) will be fitter for recent racing and could be ready to show more in this line-up. FRAGMENTING (7) draws wide but has placed in two of the past four outings. SUGGESTED PLAY: |

JOJUBI SADDLERY TROTTERS HANDICAP 2230m
THE VICARS GIRL (7) should this easier than the last effort when midfield and had scored back-to-back wins at this circuit and distance prior, both in standing start races. Gives away 20m at the handicap but is good enough to overcome that. MAJESTIC SUNDAY (6) started a hot favourite last start but broke early and took no part. Strong winner by more than 8m at this circuit and distance prior. Will need to get it right but is good enough with manners. HORSE OF COURSE (1) was fourth to The Vicars Girl last start but meets her on better handicap terms. ALDEBARAN BREE (4) was runner-up the last time she attempted a standing start race.

NC EQUINE TROTTERS MOBILE 1800m
STAR OF PATRICK (4) started favourite last start but had to work and finished midfield. Recorded a series of top-four finishes prior including an easy win from a wider draw the last time he attempted this distance. Can bounce back. MAJESTIC SUMMER (6) kept her manners in check and produced a good performance last time out, finishing second at this venue. Goes well at this shorter distance, winning four of 10. Contender. MILITARY MERIT (1) drew much wider and worked when runner-up here last time so will enjoy the ace draw. TAMZEN ROSE (2) scored a second-up win by 2.8 metres at this venue last start and draws to play a role again. SUGGESTED PLAY: |

SEYMOUR GROUP PACE 2230m
ALORA (3) had a tough draw on Monday so prepared to overlook that result. Had been about the mark consistently prior including a second two back at Port Pirie. Owns a good strike rate at this circuit and distance and she is likely to get the favours from this nice draw. UNITED (2) returns to a circuit where he has won four of seven previous visits and he strikes at 50 per cent when third-up so could peak aided by a low draw. RUPERT OF LINCOLN (5) will be fitter for three runs this prep and showed improvement last time when he finished fourth, beaten 7 metres. Could be ready to peak now. I BET YOU (1) has been out of the placings at Mildura of late but has won here before and gets the ace draw. SUGGESTED PLAY: |

NORTHSIDE TROPHIES PACE 1800m
RUMBLE ALONG (3) drew wider than this this but had enough speed to find the front before fighting on for a 1.1m second two back then came from the back row for fourth last time. Can take advantage of the good draw so has winning claims. SKINNY HORACE (9) has switched stables since he broke but did well to recover and finished 2.7 metres away in fourth at Albury. Can measure up in this region. WINSOME BUNNY (10) was midfield in a tougher race last time and had put together a string of top-four finishes prior. Best form measures up favourably in this line-up so just needs a bit of luck to go her way. MY GIRL MIA (1) was well beaten fresh but will be fitter and gets the ace draw. SUGGESTED PLAY: |

O'BRIEN'S WHOLESALE MEATS PACE 1800m
ROOSTER PHILLIPS (4) looked good in a resuming win by more than 10m at Mildura but it all went wrong last time where he broke, was hampered by a flat tyre and had no clear run. Must overlook that and he returns to the front row so can get back on track. MAISIELOUISA (1) has been racing well, placing in three of her last four starts including a third most recently at Port Pirie when she started on the back row. No excuses from the ace draw so she looks a danger. BETTOR LOVER (9) suffered a gear malfunction last start but placed at his previous two so is worth another chance. CARRAMAR SANCHEZ (5) will be fitter for recent racing so could show more. SUGGESTED PLAY: |

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARK STRINGER PACE 1800m
EMRITES (5) came from a similar barrier to this to win here earlier in the campaign and could be close to another success after a strong showing for fourth from the back row last start. Better served by this draw so can play a major role in the outcome. THE NOTORIOUS R B G (8) backs up after she raced wide and worked but stuck on for third here on Monday, making it three placings on end. No harm in drawing here with the sprint lane to rely upon so can give this a mighty shake. CHEVRON FLIES (11) is a newcomer from NSW where she was last seen when placed at Penrith in March and was a Newcastle winner two outings prior. Tricky draw but has been readied with a trial. LINXX (10) cops a tougher draw this time but continued his consistent form when runner-up last week so respect. SUGGESTED PLAY: |

SOUTHERN CROSS FINALS NIGHT DECEMBER 20 PACE 2230m
KATHYS FREE (6) was a winner at Port Pirie last month and has been runner-up in her last two outing here, finishing a nose from the winner two back before performing well from this barrier on Monday Has won twice at this longer distance. Big chance on the back up. LAYLAS PRINCESS (5) is in good form and added to a string of top-four finishes when third at her latest appearance here. All of those were from back row barriers so the return to the front line could see her break through. HEY GOYOUGOODTHING (2) hasn't raced for five-and-a-half months but goes well fresh and gets a low draw so expect a good effort to kick off this prep. ROCKY MONALOO (8) draws for a trail and may be ready to show more third up. SUGGESTED PLAY: |

LADBROKES RACING EXTRAS IN MULTI PACE 1800m
TRIGGER (6) is in good form with a string of top-four finishes to his name and put the writing on the wall when second at his latest appearance at Port Pirie. This could be his chance to break through. CLARENDEN CRUISER (7) has finished closer to the winner in each start so far this campaign and made good progress in a last-start fourth. Draws wider but owns a good record at this circuit and distance. REACT TO BEAUTY (11) was severely checked last start so forgive that result. Was racing well prior including a win here two back so deserves another chance. ORATOR (5) was beaten less than 6m when resuming at Mildura two weeks ago. Usually races well second-up so can progress. SUGGESTED PLAY: |
