Murray Bridge Race 7

Rural City Of Murray Bridge Stake Pr1 Division2

Stake: $1,636

LIFE'S A JOKE (2) was in the minors two back (20.25) at Angle Park but ran below best last time there, finishing 6th. Smart beginner who should take advantage of the low draw. Should bounce back. LET'S GO KAY (3) turned in a fair 4th placed finish last time at Murray Bridge Straight over 300m (17.20). Goes well out of this box with a win and four minor placings. Expected to feature in the finish. LADY NOVA (7) held her own to the line last start and filled a minor placing, beaten only one length (22.95) behind Littlefoot at this track. Has good speed and will be prominent from out wide. Winning chance. FEDERAL TIGER (1) was unplaced here last start but gets his chance to atone.

Missed the frame latest (23.31) when fifth over 395m at this track in a Grade 6. Has a win and two places from three starts from this draw. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts.

Good effort to win last start by 0.8 lengths over 455m at this track in a handy (25.75), beating Redtail Cockatoo. Will find this a bit tougher, happy to risk this time.
