Anticipating good pressure with many of these lining up for the first time. PLATINO (4) looks close to a win after placing at both runs to start the career, the latest when beaten less than a length in second over 1200m at Gawler. Peaking now and can get the job done. NO BAIL (3) returns. The form around his debut campaign reads very favourably for this and he looks to have come back in great order assessing his recent trial win. Drawn sticky but looks more than capable of playing a major role fresh. POLAR EYES (8) boasts a fitness edge and should find this a bit easier. Could be unlocked with the blinkers going on. GLITZY GOLDEN GIRL (9) is a filly by Saxon Warrior out of Gotta Be Gold on debut. In the placings at most recent Morphettville Parks trial. Can measure up. GARRISON MISS (6) is a daughter of Bivouac out of Nicconi Leggera having her first start. Was good when winning a trial here with today's rider Lauren Stojakovic aboard. Worth including. SUGGESTED PLAY: Platino to win.
