Key Comments On pace runners typically suited here. The best bet was a last start winner on this track and just has to handle the wide draw to be going close. Best Bet Been Our Angel (Kilmore Race 7 No. 1) Drawn wide but won nicely on this track last start and in this grade. Goes up in the weights but does take some off thanks to the claim and only needs a solid run in transit to be going close. This race

She debuted for a close 2nd at Halidon the led all the way to win by 1.5 lengths at Morphettville Parks. Should be hard to catch. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson
