Moderate pace only with Divine Fire leading Silver Lifestyle. TRIPOD TERROR (2)deserved his win at Oakbank and then stepped up to 1250m in a 64 at The Parks and impressed from the 14 barrier, beaten just 1.3L. Maps better today and is well placed to bounce back. GLOBAL TURN (9) found her best narrowly beaten in a 62 at Murray Bridge over 1200m. That stacks up, and she's likely to settle back and finish hard. SILVER LIFESTYLE (3) won at Oakbank and then placed there over 1400m. Came back to a short sprint at The Parks following, and didn't get into it. He's capable of using the inside over 1350m, and can bounce back into the finish. GRINZINGER ACE (4) delivered a 56 over 1200m at Murray Bridge as a $3.5F. Had some decent form prior in stronger than this and is worth keeping onside. SUGGESTED PLAY: Tripod Terror to win.
