GOING: G(4)

Sportsbet Fast Form Adelaide In Autumn Series Final 1600m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 23)   Rail: +2m Entire; Sectional 602m. (Pent: 5.46)  

Texan Windstorm and Jilladora will press forward in a keen battle for the lead. UNDER THE CONE (7) looks set to go on with it now after a gutsy win last start at Balaklava, getting the nose down right on the line. Drops nicely in weight, which is a big plus stepping up in distance, and gets a key booking in Zahra. Should be right in the thick of it. WINE BARRON (15) is yet to strike through this campaign but is knocking on the door. Rates highly down in the weights and gets J Melham piloting from a favourable inside draw. Have to take seriously. CHIPSON (1) continues to race well this campaign and looks suited back to this track and trip where he’s been ultra-consistent. Can take much closer order this time from the inside alley and should take some stopping. JILLADORA (4) is in career-best form and should blend into the race nicely after settling in behind the speed. Holds genuine claims. BRAVE STAR (3) faces a tough assignment from out there but has a solid record over this track and trip and carries class. Don't dismiss lightly. SUGGESTED PLAY: Going with Under The Cone.
