Verdict

CHILLI REAPER (7) sets the standard after resuming with a sharp Mt Gambier win, coming from well back to beat Imacreedytwo by a head at generous odds. She is two wins from three starts around 5f and the same jockey stays aboard, making her the one to beat. RICH LADY (14) is the obvious danger after consecutive Balaklava seconds, beaten a nose two back and a length last start, and she brings proven form at this track. SUPER CHOICE (2) has been close in Class 1 and Class 2 company this campaign, with interference at Gawler last time giving him a genuine excuse. Worth consideration. PRANCETHRULIFE (15) resumes off two trials, handles wet ground and has already won at this venue, so his fresh run can rate highly if he returns near his better form.

7	Resumed in excellent style at Mt Gambier, settling well back before sweeping over them to beat Imacreedytwo by a head at generous odds. This is a harder meeting than that country win, but she is two from three around 5f and Jacob Opperman stays aboard after winning on her first-up. With that sharp return and the distance profile in her favour, she is the horse to beat. 1st Pick 7 Chilli Reaper Jockey: Jacob Opperman Trainer: Jamie Opperman J: Jacob Opperman T: Jamie Opperman	128	-	-	-	13%	7/1

14	Has put together two strong Balaklava seconds this campaign, beaten a nose by Mystic Mind after being held up, then a length behind Reoffer after finishing strongly from back in the field. She is third-up now and has a win plus two placings from six starts at this track. The distance record is place-heavy rather than win-heavy, but her current form makes her a major threat. 2nd Pick 14 Rich Lady Jockey: Jake Toeroek Trainer: Wayne Francis & Glen Kent J: Jake Toeroek T: Wayne Francis & Glen Kent	111	-	-	-	16%	11/2

2	Brings a more persuasive case than the bare fourth at Gawler suggests, having been steadied and hampered before finishing fourth in a Class 1, beaten just under two lengths. He had earlier run fourth in a Class 2 at Morphettville Parks, so the recent grade references are strong for this. The 5f record is the query, but fourth-up and race fit, he looks a genuine winning chance. 3rd Pick 2 Super Choice Jockey: Caitlin Jones Trainer: Stuart Gower J: Caitlin Jones T: Stuart Gower	109	-	-	-	16%	11/2
