RACE 1 - 12:22PM Quayclean Handicap (1250 METRES)

Harley'n'Rose resumes and was placed in both the Breeders' and Sires before a break. He's a nice horse, drawn a sticky gate and has the benefit of a recent trial under his belt. Nicish jumped favourite and made good ground from the back behind Just Joking at Balaklava and she gets the blinkers for the first time. Huggle Time was a Murray Bridge winner on debut before being sent out favourite when 5th behind Esecutore on the outer track. He draws a middle gate and should be thereabouts. The Secret Blend was specked at odds when narrowly beaten by Aiyah at Murray Bridge on debut and should run well despite a wide gate. Jake Toeroek rides stablemate OVERSTRIKE from a good barrier. LADYMEANSBUSINESS was a good Murray Bridge winner two starts back before being beaten 5 lengths behind Lovely Lookin' last week.

RACE 2 - 12:57PM Twilight Racing at Morphettville October 6th Handicap (1250 METRES)

Bulls On Parade carried big expectations into his debut and didn't let his supporters down when he came from a tricky position to beat Lips Don't Lie. He draws a perfect gate and should take some beating again. Foxy Femme has been good in two runs back from a spell running on strongly when 2nd behind Prophet's Choice here last time. The draw is against, but she has upside and should be ready to peak third-up. Street Delight comes off a good effort when she beat all but stablemate Killiako here. She's another awkwardly drawn but looks well placed. Joy Mccoy is now in the Clarken/O'Shea stable and was placed at his only start here back in June behind Cold Case, that's solid enough form, he's another awkwardly drawn but has been a firmer since markets opened. VINCERE is lightly raced and comes off a Bairnsdale win. She gates the claim and a good barrier.

Write Your Name was good beaten 2.7 lengths in 6th behind Ironclad in the Balaklava Cup last time.
