Verdict

BAYOU MUSIC (5) showed talent last season when trained in Victoria, and he returns fresh up for the Clarken/Sorby stable with some improving trial form under his belt. He benefits from a 4lbs claim, and at this suitable level, he is the one to beat for us. SUPER LAD (1) was outpaced fresh up in a tougher field at Morphettville 11 days ago after some solid lead-up trial form, and he will be a lot sharper second up. A 4lbs claim will negate the weight rise, and he can have a say in the finish of this race. BRAVE APACHE (6) will be having his first run in this State after following his trainer over from WA. He has had a recent quiet trial and usually comes to hand quickly. Respect him on an each-way basis. HALLIWELL (7) ran a good race for third on a heavy track at Naracoorte nearly 3 weeks ago, and in an even contest she is one of the many top 4 hopes. Callow in the saddle is a nice lead. EMBELLISHER (8) has won here in the past and is worth including in all top 4 combos.
