Morphettville Race 7

House Inspect Australia Hcp (66)

Stake: $54,500

TALISAY (8) has always looked a nice horse, and she showed that she's back better than ever with a brilliant first-up win. This is harder, but she's sure to have improved and will take some beating again. Her best form is on soft track, which she's likely to find on Saturday. TROPICAL HOUSE (10) looms the main danger. She's a progressive mare that looked good winning last start. Milnes jumps off to stick with TALISAY, so that might be the lead. MAKALU (4) can run in the money on his best Victorian form. WINE BARRON (5) is quirky, but he's capable of winning a race like this if he turns up in his best form. FLYWAY (11) is another that often runs well without winning. He's worth some consideration for quaddies and exotics.

At the latest run 7th of 11 at Morphettville Parks Cg&E 0-68 on August 23 over 1400m, slow going 2.25 len behind Podargoni with 59.5kg at $11. The race before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 11 at Murray Bridge Bm66 on August 2 over 1600m, on a slow track; 2 len behind Thermodynamic carrying 59kg at $4.40. Not keen on his chances.

Dual acceptor. Racing well recently. Comes here off a 55-day let-up. Last start tried to lead throughout but was claimed late 2nd of 7 at Warrnambool Bm64-Hwgt on July 6 over 1700m, in the wet; nose behind Astradeel carrying 71kg at $3.70. The race before that 4th of 13 at this track Bm68 on June 21 over 1800m, on a slow track; 2.75 len behind Magnetic Edge carrying 59kg at $3.80. Close to a win. Big chance on that latest effort.

Most recently raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 9 at Morphettville Parks Nmw-Ly on August 16 over 1400m, on a slow track; 4 len behind Watadeel with 54kg at $14. The start before that 5th of 13 at Murray Bridge Bm76 on August 2 over 1400m, slow going 2.5 len behind Fast Bubbles carrying 52.5kg at $71. Getting closer but happy to risk in this line-up.

At the latest run 6th of 10 at Moonee Valley Bm74 on August 9 over 1600m, on a slow track; 3 len behind Shoeless carrying 53.5kg at $31.

Second run back. First-up after four months won by 2.25 len at this track 0-66 August 9 over 1508m on a rain affected track defeating Thermodynamic carrying 54.5kg at $5. Previously second-up 6th of 9 at Morphettville Parks Cl2 on March 15 over 1400m, 5 len behind Dubai Focus with 54kg at $17. The one to beat based on that latest effort. Back in great shape and a bold showing is expected.

Most recently raced on the pace before fading second last of 11 at Morphettville Parks Bm64 on August 23 over 1550m, on a slow track; 4.5 len behind Placo carrying 54.5kg at $21. The race before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 11 at this track 0-66 on August 9 over 1508m, slow going 4 len behind Talisay with 53.5kg at $9. Love him but prepared to risk.
