GOING: S(5)

ADELAIDE HOTEL SHOWCASE MAIDEN PLATE 1650m

Track: SOFT 5   Clouds (Max: 20)   Rail: True.  

Moderate tempo with Dashing Power leading the way and a few others keeping in touch. BOUND TO FIRE (2) stepped up to 1400m and started favourite last start but just failed in a Nowra maiden. Very fit after three runs back from a spell and looks ready for a first tilt at this trip. The one to beat in an ordinary affair. BLAZING BEVERLEY (7) is yet to find the frame in ten starts. Last appeared over this distance three runs back when she produced her best result, beaten 2.7 lengths at Albury. In contention with a repeat of the performance. GHAZNAVI (6) has struggled to make an impact of late at the provincials. Worth another chance in this easier race on a six-day back-up. ORNE (9) ran a better race last time out, making late ground to finish third over 1425m at this track. Very fit and nicely placed out to today's journey. DAMONA GODDESS (8) did nothing last start on her Australian debut when first-up from an 11-month spell. Likely improver. SUGGESTED PLAY: Confident Bound To Fire can break through today.
