Race preview

Balaklava plays host to a competitive 1600m Restricted 56 handicap on a good four surface under overcast skies. Punters sizing up the race will find Royal Fox heading the win market order, closely followed in the betting ring by Togetherforever, Victory Lane, and Miss Kasei. With multiple runners noted in the speed groups as leaders and on-pace runners such as Hamner Springs, Kryal Castle, Miss Kasei, and Laybuy, expect a genuine tempo as they sort out their positions early in the yarn.

Royal Fox brings compelling form to the contest as the market leader, having put in a solid runner-up effort over 1600m at Murray Bridge before a reasonable effort without seriously threatening at Gawler. The stable combination with Todd Pannell steering from barrier eleven is outperforming market expectations by a notable margin, and the seasoned performer gets every chance to bounce back here. Miss Kasei is another holding claims after settling on the pace and finishing fourth over 1400m at this track, with the step up to the mile looking suitable for a fit runner.

Looking further down the win market order, Togetherforever is backing up quickly after going home tamely at Mount Gambier, though the stable presence and previous campaign miles suggest a bounce back is not entirely out of the question. Victory Lane tends to get a long way back and failed to threaten at Strathalbyn, leaving punters looking toward the sharper end of the market for more reliable form lines. It shapes as an intriguing test over the mile where early speed influences will dictate the story of the race.

AAP

In touch but couldn't find anything when pressured at Gawler over longer assignment. Can lead or take a sit. Coming back in distance but among the dangers.

ILB

Odds of $10.00 and ran 5th last start at Gawler and coming back in trip.

RSIS

At 9/1 ran 5th last run at Gawler and dropping back to a shorter trip.

Seasoned performer. Solid run Hcp (58) at Murray Bridge Gh 9 Sep. Reasonable effort without seriously threatening at Gawler. Right in this.

ILB

Odds of $6.50 and finished 7th last run at Gawler. May see an upturn in form. Finishes off strongly. Strong claims.

Has proven competitive in a race of this nature and produced a string of consistent efforts; finished in front of Hamner Springs and Kamikaze Fighter over 7½f at Gawler (handicap) when seventh beaten 2½l last month; strong claims as recent effort was encouraging.

RSIS

Started at 11/2 and came in 7th last run at Gawler. Giving another go here. Shows very good finishing pace. Should put in a decent effort.

Long time since last saluted. Sent out $6.50 when unable to threaten at Strathalbyn. Usually gets back. Others with stronger claims.

ILB

At $6.50 made up ground when 5th last time at Strathalbyn. Very capable of taking this out.

Finished fifth, beaten a fair way over 6½f at Strathalbyn (handicap) two weeks ago; useful at this level; cannot be ignored.

RSIS

Odds of 11/2 and picked up some late ground when 5th last time at Strathalbyn. No surprise to see solid support in the betting.

AAP

Went home tamely at Jamestown at $15. Home track advantage but has a tricky draw and rising in weight. Drops to shorter trip. Leaning towards others here.

ILB

Odds of $61.00 and uncompetitive when 7th last time at Jamestown and going up in weight. Expected to settle towards the rear. Rough chance.

Not disgraced in seventh over 1m1f at Jamestown (handicap) 11 days ago; respected as shown he can get his head in front.

RSIS

Started at 60/1 and not in contention when 7th last start at Jamestown and hoping that the added weight won't hurt. Might be ridden for luck.

Went home tamely at Gawler at $9.50. Dual winner this trip and right in the mix.

ILB

Was $9.50 and faded away to finish 11th last time at Gawler. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Solid claims.

Finished 11th, beaten 6l, at Gawler over 7½f (handicap) three weeks ago; may have to settle for supporting role.

RSIS

Was 17/2 and didn't attack the line when 11th last time at Gawler. Will be positive in the run early. Has strong claims.

AAP

Raced in back half and was never in a position to mount a serious challenge at Gawler. Can rebound.

ILB

Odds of $41.00 and didn't threaten when 14th last start at Gawler. Likely to get back in the run. Needs significant improvement.

A few throw outs since his success in a handicap at Albany in January; towards the rear of 15 at Gawler over 7½f (handicap) last month; probably unlikely to trouble the principals.

RSIS

Started 40/1 and couldn't stay in touch when 14th last time at Gawler. Prefers to settle towards the tail.

AAP

Knuckled down really well for a narrow win at Jamestown last start. Positive last start but needs to build further on that effort.

ILB

Fought on well to win a tight contest by a nose last run at Jamestown and drawn the rails. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Prefer others.

Off the mark at the third time of asking in a maiden (Jamestown) when getting the job done by a nose 11 days ago; despite that Jamestown success, unlikely to trouble the principals.

RSIS

Was fighting out the finish when winning last run at Jamestown and drawn well. Should muster plenty of early pace.

Off pace and failed to make an impression at Gawler. Only win to date was this distance. Best viewed as a rough place hope.

ILB

Came in 6th last start at Gawler. Polly Brewster takes a large claim.

Close up behind Dodd when sixth over 7½f at Gawler (handicap) last week; others more likely.

RSIS

Ran 6th last start at Gawler. Polly Brewster takes a large claim.

AAP

On pace but soon under pressure and she knocked up badly at Mildura over longer test. Switching to 1600m. Deep into her campaign, one for exotics.

ILB

On a short turnaround. Weakened under pressure when 6th last start at Mildura.

Finished sixth, beaten a fair way last week (Mildura) upped to 1m1½f; others appeal more.

RSIS

Backs up quickly. Tailed off to finish 6th last start at Mildura.

AAP

On pace but found little at the business end this track. Has early speed. Looking for a mile now. Fit from racing, has some claims.

ILB

Was $12.00 and got tired late when 4th last time here. Has the early speed to burn across from the wide gate. Could feature here.

A few throw outs since her success in a maiden at Yarra Glen in December; out of the frame (beaten just under 5l in fourth) over 7f here (handicap) last month; has to prove this longer trip is what she wants and others make more appeal.

RSIS

Started 11/1 and couldn't find the line when 4th last time at this track. Has the necessary pace to mitistall the wide draw. Can't leave out of your calculations.

On pace but found little at the business end at Gawler. Deep into his campaign, capable of making an impact with even breaks.

ILB

At $18.00 was found wanting late when 5th last time at Gawler. Minor claims.

Not disgraced when fifth at Gawler nine days ago upped to 7½f; not a frequent winner and form has been a bit mixed lately; others more likely.

RSIS

At 17/1 peaked on the run when 5th last time at Gawler.

Freshened. Veteran, just going through the motions lately and hard to warm to here.

ILB

Started $151.00 and lost ground in the run home when 11th last start at Morphettville but up against weaker rivals. Should race on the speed. Needs a lot of luck to figure in the finish.

Was tailed off over 1m3f at Morphettville (handicap) five weeks ago; shown he can be competitive fairly recently and looks like a player.

RSIS

Started 150/1 and lost ground in the run home when 11th last time at Morphettville but taking on a lower class of opponents. Should be going forward early.

On a quick back-up. Went home tamely at Mt Gambier at $31. A few runs under her belt this campaign, can make her presence felt.

ILB

Backing up quickly. At $31.00 weakened to finish 11th last run at Mount Gambier. Potential to run into a place.

Finished 11th, beaten a fair way at Mt Gambier a week ago; slumped a bit since winning a handicap at Gawler last November; others have more pressing claims.

RSIS

Backing up quickly. At 30/1 was well beaten when 11th last time at Mount Gambier.

Sent out $71 when never got into the race this venue. Remains unplaced from 8 starts here. Hard to warm to.

ILB

Started at $71.00 and improved when 5th last start around here. Likely to settle back in the field. Would be more keen on the chance of others.

Finished just behind Miss Kasei when fifth over 7f here (handicap) two weeks ago; others appeal more.

RSIS

At 70/1 crept into 5th last time at this track. Likely to get back.

Odds correct as at Wed 14 Oct, 5:30 pm AEDT. Odds can change.
