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.

Shock Alert (Bordertown Race 7 No. 2):
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 2nd day of the Scone Carnival. Plenty of features including the Woodlands Stakes (race 3), Denise Joy Stakes (race 6), Ortensia Stakes (race 7), the Dark Jewel Classic (race 8) and Luskin Star Stakes (race 9). Best Bet Jedibeel (Scone Race 10 No. 8) Lovely return effort when being backed off the map and showed off a fine turn of foot. Can go right on with things here and should get a nice tow into it from barrier 7. Hard to

Key Comments There are 9 races on the Parks circuit. The track is rated good and the rail is +3 metres from the 1000m -to the winning post and true for the remainder. Best Bet Easy Campese (Morphettville Race 3 No. 4) Easy Campese has been runner-up at his last 3 races and is ready to win. With the 2kg claim for Alana Livesay he will only carry 52.5 kg down from 59kg last start and hopefully that will make all the difference.

Key Comments The rail is out 4 metres. The feature races include the Straight Six (race 7) and the Andrew Ramsden (race 8). The best bet looks well placed to bounce back and very hard to beat if finding its old form. Best Bet Niance (Flemington Race 3 No. 7) Had excuses last start when bungling the jump. Looks really hard to beat if finding its old form and there was so much to like about the wins prior. Looks way over the

Key Comments The rail is out 4 metres. The best bet comes up in the second race and is a very progressive type that can continue on its winning spree. Best Bet Affluential (Werribee Race 2 No. 4) Has been on a winning spree and showing no signs of slowing down. Should land in a beautiful spot from the draw and no reason to suggest it can't win again on the way to better races. Check odds on SmartB Analyst:
