Exalted Beast (Bordertown Race 5 No. 1)
This four-year-old Good Journey gelding trained by Grant Young at Murray Bridge has four wins and a place from 12 starts. He hit the lead at the top of the straight and fought hard but was swamped in the final 50m for a length 4th over 2000m at Naracoorte on 2 May, then came away in the final 400m to win by an impressive 6.5 lengths over 2000m at Murray Bridge on 5 May. Will be very hard to beat.

This seven-year-old Shocking gelding has six wins and nine places from 39 starts. He weakened out in the straight for 5.6 lengths 9th over 1430m at Naracoorte on 14 April, then settled 2nd and took over at the 200m to hold on for a narrow in over 1350m a Donald on 8 May. Has drawn the rails and is worth an each-way bet.

Canidae (Bordertown Race 6 No. 9):
This five-year-old Foxwedge gelding is the early favourite in this BM 58 handicap over 1550m. He chased gamely and made ground when 1.2, 0.3 lengths 3rd over 1500m at Gawler on 25 April, then battled away without threatening for 2.5 lengths 5th over 1600m at Balaklava on 12 May. Three of his four wins have been at this track but others look a better chance here.

Key Comments The rail is true. The best bet comes up in race 3 and only needs a pinch of luck from the barrier to be breaking maiden. Best Bet Beautiful View (Horsham Race 3 No. 1) Needs luck from out there but has been around the mark all this prep and Fry is an ideal booking. Does find the right race here and still looms at backable odds. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Bryce Parker Each

Key Comments The rail is true. The best bet comes up in the first race at a short price and is a good multi banker. Best Bet Snippety Star (Orange Race 1 No. 10) All runs to date have been solid and Snippety Star won't get a better chance to win than this. Latham does the riding and the depth here is thin. This race suits and is a good multi banker for the weekend. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Bryce Parker

Key Comments There are 2 features on the meeting. The Mornington Cup (race 8) and the Hareeba Stakes (race 9). The rail is out 9 metres and the best bet is in the first. Best Bet Perspiration (Mornington Race 1 No. 1) Has been excellent to date in 2 runs so far and looks ready to win. Ethan Brown does the steering and you can argue it should have won last start when taken wide and hit the line with plenty of intent.
