Winner AUD $6,100 - 5 runners
5f
Going: Good
Surface: D
MCKEEVER (1) showed little early speed and was always well back last start when eighth, beaten 6 lengths, over this journey at Port Lincoln. Perfectly placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. RICHED (4) finished 2 lengths from the winner in sixth on turf at Port Lincoln two starts back. Missed the frame in another run on turf last time at Kingscote over 6f when 4.5 lengths adrift in fifth. Reunites with Tala Hutchinson who has a win when partnering. Best form puts him right in this. A THOUSAND DEGREES (5) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 6f at Port Lincoln, beaten 5 lengths into ninth. Has started two times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Finds a more suitable contest and can take this out. ROYAL TYKE (2) missed the frame on turf over 5f at Murray Bridge in a then filled a minor placing last start on the same surface at Port Lincoln, beaten 1.2 lengths over the 5f journey. Makes plenty of appeal back on the dirt.
