Plenty of pace from Buffo, Callisto Grey and Make Me A Match matching motors ahead of Murtle Kombat. Very little to get excited about in the exposed form so the first starter KEEP GOING (8) gets his chance. Has been to the jump-outs twice and won both times for the Jolly/Potter stable. Only needs to possess moderate ability to take this out. BUFFO (2) was in commission first-up over 900m at Murray Bridge but didn't finish his race off after showing pace to the corner. Strips fitter and should offer much more resistance this time. MAKE ME A MATCH (12) showed pace but weakened in the concluding stages on debut over 1250m at Morphettville Parks last start. Finds a far easier maiden so don't write her off. MURTLE KOMBAT (13) found the line well on debut at Bordertown and an extra 100m today is a plus. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keep Going to salute on debut.
