Exalted Traveller (Strathalbyn Race 4 No. 1)
This seven-year-old gelding has had 58 starts for five wins and 23 places and has raced at this track twice for one place. He chased strongly for 0.4 lengths 2nd over 1550m at Morphettville Parks on 25 November, then hit the front at the 200m and drew clear for a 1.7 length win over 1528m at Morphettville on 5 December. That was a nice win and he can win again here.

He boxed on steadily for 3.2 lengths 5th over 1200m at Naracoorte on 24 November, then fought gamely but was outgunned in the final 50m for 1.7 lengths 4th over 1300m at Penola on 4 December.
