Verdict

GRAND MILLESIME (5) gets the nod after breaking through at Murray Bridge, where she beat Ludina by a head in a Mdn despite covering ground and being tightened early. She was second at Halidon the start prior and her good track record gives the win further substance, while Jason Holder is a strong booking at this venue. FOUR ON THE FLOOR (1) is the main danger dropping out of Saturday company after a G BM64 sixth at Morphettville behind Artistic Genius, and his Gawler third two back reads well for this. MAPLEWAY (8) is more a place profile, but his first-up Gawler run was only just over two lengths away and the winning rider returns with a 3lbs claim. HAMPTON BELLE (7) improved to fourth at Mildura last week and is fitter third-up with weight relief. Can feature.
