Morphettville racing tips
—
From the Block kicked off his preparation with three consecutive wins, and a return to that form would be good enough.
The five-year-old son of Shooting to Win won his only start at the track, and although only average at Sandown last start, he’s better than that.
Drawing well helps, so include him in picks.
Stake: 1.5 Units
It’s about time Lavish Thinker scored an overdue win. The six-year-old is only a two-time winner, but he’s much better than that.
He owns 11 placings, including recent placings at Murray Bridge and Morphettville, so there is nothing wrong with his form.
Getting in with 55.5kg is enough to take him close.
Stake: 1 Unit
Looking to remain unbeaten is Intellectual, who scored by a half-length on debut at Morphettville.
The three-year-old son of Written By showed good barrier speed to lead and hold off Snow Mercy, who is also in this race.
It could be a race between them, but Intellectual has more upside.
Stake: 2 Units
Leaving Las Vegas cashed in for punters when winning at Pakenham, and that was a good way to break maidens.
The four-year-old son of Pierro has yet to finish worse than third in eight career starts, so his consistency is good enough to win here.
Getting the inside draw is another positive, so put him on top.
Stake: 2.5 Units
Thunder Shoc has made a nice start to her career, including a win at Morphettville two back followed by a placing.
The four-year-old tends to show good barrier speed in her races, which is typically a good tactic at Morphettville.
We’re happy to include her in picks at the odds.
Stake: 1 Unit
There is plenty of hype around Anthracite, and we’re not about to jump off his back.
The five-year-old gelding might have taken awhile to get to the races, but after scoring an easy win last time out, he has a bright future.
He only has upside, so include him in multis.
Stake: 3.5 Units
There is nothing wrong with the form of Dyer, who was too good for them at Mildura last time out.
Victorian form is good enough to win in Adelaide, and although he’s yet to win here, he owns a second placing.
60kg isn’t easy to carry, but he should give punters a good sight.
Stake: 1 Unit
Aviatress is unbeaten in three fresh up starts, so we’re surprised by the $5 odds available.
The five-year-old mare by Smart Missile is also a three-time winner at Morphettville, and she only needs luck from the wide draw.
We’re happy to include her in picks at the odds.
Stake: 2.5 Units
Brave Star is another each-way chance, and the eight-year-old gelding has enough experience to handle this field.
The Phillip Stokes-trained gelding is a one-time winner at Morphettville, but he comes off a second placing at the track.
The odds are worth including in picks.
Stake: 1 Unit
