AUSSIE PHAROAH (5) found one marginally better last start over 1m at Morphettville after being prominent throughout. Should go forward again from a good gate. Looks well placed so expect another bold performance. CHANTISS (15) showed good early speed then led into the straight last start before fighting on to finish second, beaten 1.2 lengths, over 1m2 1/4f at Strathalbyn. Will go forward and is expected to be in the finish again. SALUTE THE STARS (8) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at Clare, finishing third and only 1.2 lengths from the winner at the end of 1m1f when he made late ground. Taking on a better line-up this time but he cannot be underestimated. EASY BEAST (2) strode forward early from his wide draw over 1m1f at Murray Bridge last time, leading for much of the way before being claimed in the straight to finish second, beaten 3.5 lengths. Well-placed and worth including.
