Morphettville Racing Tips for Saturday, August 8th 2026

We have expert betting tips for racing at Morphettville on Saturday, which includes nine races at the premier meeting.

Punters get good value odds for the South Australian meeting, and we have betting tips for every race on the card.  

Looking to remain unbeaten is Chica Astuta, who won by 1.5 lengths in a tough race on debut for the Stokes stable.

The three-year-old filly by Toronado could have a bright future as a stronger type, and she comes off an easy jumpout effort.

It’s a tough race, but she should be competitive.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Snoopy Now isn’t the easiest runner to follow, but we’re happy to give him another chance against this field.

The five-year-old son of Sir Prancelot is a two-time winner at the track and a three-time winner over the distance, so the stats read well.

Getting the inside draw with 2kg coming off helps his chances.

Stake: 1 Unit

Peta’s Heart isn’t always the most consistent type going around, but three of her wins have come at Morphettville.

The six-year-old mare by Pierro is bred to be better than average, and her win three starts ago in heavy conditions was a tidy effort.

If she’s close to her best, she should run well with a light weight.

Stake: 1 Unit

Golden Guru continues to run good races this preparation, including a win at Murray Bridge and two placings at Morphettville.

The four-year-old son of Toronado is only a one-time winner, but he flashed home late last start, which put the writing on the wall.

Look for him to settle back from the draw and work home nicely.

Stake: 1 Unit

Punters get value odds for Miss Cotoletta, who owns three wins and three placings from 15 starts.

The five-year-old mare by Flying Artie comes off a second placing at Sandown, and form in Victoria typically stacks up well in Morphettville.

She should settle handy and give punters a sight.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Looking to go one better than his last start second is Hello World, who should be fit and ready to fire.

The six-year-old son of Written Tycoon has yet to win at Morphettville, but he has a good record over the distance, which adds to his appeal.

It’s an even field, so include him for value.

Stake: 1 Unit

Shady Thinker is unbeaten from two fresh up starts, and he could hit the ground running this preparation.

The five-year-old son of So You Think won at Morphettville when racing fresh last season, and that came as a $2.30 favourite when beating Zunna.

It’s a good form guide, and returning to this track helps his chances.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Mansiere could get back to his best form, which includes a good win three starts back at Morphettville.

The six-year-old son of Brave Smash hasn’t fired in two runs since, but we’re prepared to give him another chance at nice odds.

2kg comes off his back, so the upset could be on the cards.

Stake: 1 Unit

Gunning for consecutive wins is Astrodean, and although he didn’t face a tough field last start, his confidence levels should be high.

The six-year-old son of Astern has yet to fire at Morphettville in town, but he won by 3.3 lengths last time out, so it was a dominant effort.

He’s worth including in picks at odds.

Stake: 1 Unit
