MORPHETTVILLE PARKS   14 Mar 2026
 
GOING: G(4)

Fleurieu Milk Company Handicap 1400m

Track: GOOD 4   Clear (Max: 24)   Rail: +6m 1000m-W/Post; +3m Remainder. Sectional 608m.  

A solid tempo is on the cards with Thermodynamic and Ramasis pushing for the lead ahead of Scandalize and Geetee Forty. SCANDALIZE (2) has been right there in his last two after kicking off the prep with a bang. Peaking now and is ready to land another blow. RAMASIS (5) kept them all at bay here last start to shed the maiden tag at just his second outing and that maiden could prove strong with several of his rivals going around earlier. He’s a promising type who finds a suitable next step. UNITED LEGEND (9) was a flashing light when resuming here two weeks ago and will appreciate getting out in trip. If they can better use the low draw this time he’s capable of causing a headache. THERMODYNAMIC (4) went too quick last start when sitting on the speed and folded late. He backs up quickly and a more measured ride can see him play a role. IRONBAR (3) made light work of his rivals at Strathalbyn and while this is tougher, he’s going well enough to be kept safe for a minor spot. SUGGESTED PLAY: Scandalize to win.
