Morphettville racing tips
—
Looking to score a debut win is Intellectual, who cost $260,000, and he has justified that price at the trials.
The son of Written By is unbeaten at the trials, and he looks ready to show up on race day as a shortening $2.90 favourite.
He only needs luck from a wide barrier to go close.
Stake: 2 Units
Gunning for three consecutive wins is Goliotus, who won at Murtoa before doubling down with a win at Morphettville.
The eight-year-old is no spring chicken, but he’s enjoying life recently, and he could continue his winning run on Saturday.
His odds have drifted after opening at $4.20, but we’re not concerned.
Stake: 1 Unit
Platinum Destroyer went close at Seymour last start, and Victorian form typically stacks up well in Adelaide.
The Liam Howley-trained gelding owns two wins and five placings overall, and he only needs luck from a wide barrier to go close.
The odds are fair from bookmakers, so put him in picks.
Stake: 1 Unit
We backed Watadeel when winning at Morphettville last start, and although he must carry a big weight, he has the class advantage.
He won when carrying 61.5kg, so carrying 1kg more shouldn’t be too hard for him, and he should slot in from a wide barrier.
The odds are generous, so he’s worth backing on Saturday.
Stake: 2 Units
A runner worth including in horse racing multi picks is Anthracite, who scored by a whopping 6.3 lengths at Murray Bridge last time out.
The five-year-old son of Mongolian Khan is bred to enjoy longer distances, which means he has plenty of upside at the mile.
We expect him to win again, so take the shorts.
Stake: 4 Units
Cacala kicked off her career with three consecutive wins before finishing fifth at Morphettville last time out.
The four-year-old daughter of Tamasa wasn’t far behind some very smart types in Queman and Recommendation, so the form checks out.
Dropping to 52.5kg is ideal, so we’re happy with the odds.
Stake: 2.5 Units
Talisay was too good for them at Morphettville last time out when winning by 2.3 lengths, and that’s a tidy form guide.
The four-year-old mare by Pride of Dubai owns three wins from 15 starts, including two wins at Morphettville.
Getting $7 is a good price from bookmakers.
Stake: 1 Unit
Punters get value odds with Nurys, who is better than her recent form suggests. Her form earlier this preparation was much better when winning back-to-back races.
The six-year-old mare by Squamosa runs some of her best races at the track, and getting double-figure odds is ideal.
Getting 3kg off her back is enough to see her run well at odds.
Stake: 1 Unit
Zoupurring owns two second placings fresh up, and he could hit the ground running on Saturday.
The six-year-old son of Zoustar comes off a tidy trial effort for second, and his win at Pakenham last preparation is a good betting guide.
Barrier 16 hurts, but he goes close with luck.
Stake: 1 Unit
