|---|---|---|---|---|

Slick tempo with No Drama to lead but under plenty of pressure in a keen early contest. Tough race to end the day. SEVEN'S (17) meets similar opposition better at the weights third-up. Stalked the speed and knocked up late when third over this track and trip. Tongue-tie goes on and can hold a position from the draw. Ready to win. MAWJOOD (9) tough on-pace gelding racing in career best form. Senior rider hops back aboard after he got the job done here two-back. Can cruise across from the outside gate and figure prominently. YAM (15) consistent gelding who comes up from Wangaratta with genuine claims. Gave his all with the 60.5kg for a solid second over 1550m at Morphettville Parks in the heavy conditions. Maps well with the 3kg claimer and has top-three prospects. EMIRATE (14) turned things around last start after a month between runs to beat most of these over 1500m at this track. No reason he cannot repeat the dose. MR CHAPLIN (10) landed the plunge on his Australian debut over 1400m at Randwick. Can go on with it now from the low draw. The chances don't end there. SUGGESTED PLAY: Seven's each way.
