MORPHETTVILLE PARKS   27 Jun 2026
 
GOING: S(6)

PFD Food Services Handicap 1973m

Track: SOFT 7   Clear (Max: 16)   Rail: 6m 1000 to WP, 3m remainder. Sectional 608 Metres.  

A keen contest with I Catchem Fox and Hot Too Go leading from Aristonous. SAVOUR THE DREAM (3) relished the rise in trip last start at Mornington when making very light work of his rivals. Has more to offer fourth-up and can keep the ball rolling. TEST THE LAW (2) was well below his best last time here but his prior form reads favourably. Drops back to a pet trip and is worth forgiving. I CATCHEM FOX (1) went forward last time at Murray Bridge and kept finding out in front, holding on to score by a neck. Claims an important 2kgs again. Will be giving himself every chance. ARISTONOUS (5) brings some strong Vic figures over the border and gets significant weight off. Has proven versatile with his speed this prep and is among the winning chances. EXALTED FIRE (6) is on the quick back-up and boasts peaks that measure up. Not dismissing. SUGGESTED PLAY: Savour The Dream to win again.
