Little in the way of tactical speed so a moderate tempo is likely. BLUE ISLES (4) has been ticking along well in tougher company, finishing fourth at Morphettville Parks two back then placed in a Class 1 at Murray Bridge latest. Both times has settled at the tail and came with a sweeping run. Gets her chance here. ENCIPHERING (1) made a nice return at the provincials when fourth, racing on speed. Fitter and can give a sight here over the extra ground. UNWIND (7) finished fourth last time out over 1400m at Murray Bridge, beaten 7 lengths. Strong top-three chance. AUSSIE PHAROAH (3) is better than the last start suggests. Narrowly beaten fresh and can atone in this easier company. SUGGESTED PLAY: Stay with Blue Isles.
