MORPHETTVILLE PARKS   07 Jun 2025
 
GOING: S

Hahn Handicap 1400m

Track: SOFT 6   Rain (Max: 13)   Rail: +8m 1000m to WP, + 5m remainder. Sectional 610m.  

Moderate tempo with Synchro leading the way and a few others keeping in touch. SYNCHRO (1) is flying this prep and was dominant last time out, scoring comfortably over this course and distance. Hard to knock the form and is sure to prove tough to reel in again. EVEN SHARPER (4) doesn’t win out of turn but continues to race well, just missing last start here over this journey. Gets another chance to convert with a similar run. BIG BRUTE (2) hit the line with intent at Morphettville. Has proven versatile with his speed, now getting the chance to take much closer order. Don't take lightly. SPIRIT OF FLIGHT (10) returned to form last start when narrowly missing the winner. Peak fitness now. Keeping safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: Synchro can win again.
