Shortest win price

Welcome to Belmont for the Morley Growers Market Hcp (C1) over 1400m on a good four track with fine weather overhead for this 3up class one affair. Looking at how the win market is shaping up, Properata holds down the mantle as the shortest priced runner, closely followed by Tex 'N' Cee, Encroaching, and Duchess Of Dance rounding out the initial fancies in the betting order. Punters looking for a yarn will find plenty of intriguing form lines colliding here under the lights with an 8:31 pm AEDT jump time.
Properata kicks off our form review carrying equal top weight of 60kg from barrier eight for trainers D and B Pearce with Holly Nottle steering. This consistent galloper made all and was just picked off late at Northam over 1300m in good four going, and the map suggests a proactive leader's role could suit nicely. Encroaching is another drawing plenty of attention from barrier one for trainer D L Morton and jockey Lucy F Fiore, having scored a gutsy win over this exact 1400m course and distance last start when second-up. Tex 'N' Cee jumps from barrier five with Steven Parnham aboard for the N D Parnham stable, bringing a determined last-start Belmont win over 1400m where it showed grit on the speed.
Further down the win market order, Duchess Of Dance catches the eye for trainer Simon Miller and jockey Chloe Azzopardi, having put together the fastest overall finishing sectionals last start when winning impressively on debut at Northam over 1300m. While stepping up in trip and dropping back from the speed group where leaders like Properata and Super Sunny will look to control terms from the jump, this backmarker has the raw speed figures to make things interesting late. It shapes as a fascinating tactical battle for punters dissecting the form lines tonight.

Performance just fair at Geraldton at $11. Switching to 1400m. Others more persuasive.
ILB
Jumped at $11.00 and ran 6th last run at Geraldton and up against a higher level of opposition. Very weak selection.
RP
Respectable effort when sixth at Geraldton over 1m (handicap) last month; has arguably shown improved form the last twice; this just his second run in a handicap; he can be taken on as this is competitive.
RSIS
Started at 10/1 and came in 6th last run at Geraldton and competing at a higher level of competition.

Made all and just picked off late at Northam. Leads, handy. This looks very achievable.
ILB
Was outmatched at the end of the race when 3rd beaten by 1 3/4L last start at Northam. Should be rolling forward early from the wide gate. Will go close.
RP
Has largely been consistent of late; has won here before; third at Northam when 7-5 over 6½f (handicap) last month; just second start in this company.
RSIS
Maintained a solid pace but eventually weakened to finish 3rd beaten by 1 3/4L last start at Northam. In good condition of late. Will go close here.

Pushed forward and found enough to score as a $4.40 chance this course when second-up. Drawn to effect. Lucy Fiore on again. Top billing again.
ILB
Racing on a quick back up. Led from start to finish to win by 3/4L last run here and showing consistent performance in races. Expecting to settle positively. Strong winning hope.
RP
Registered first success at the fifth time of asking in a maiden when getting the job done by less than a length eight days ago; appears to be on the upgrade judged on two most recent runs; needs to be respected.
RSIS
On a quick turnaround. Dictated terms in front to win by a margin of 3/4L last time at this track and gets a favourable stall. Good career start. Good winning chance.

RP
Opened account at the fourth time of asking in a maiden last month, getting the job done by just under 2l; likely to be thereabouts.

Ran on strongly to win last time at the track and showing consistent performance in races. Shows good early pace. Competing at a higher grade. Could be in the mix.

Beaten 7l (fifth) over 6f here (handicap) last Wednesday; this only his second start in handicap company; must be respected despite defeats on last two starts as he scored three runs back.

Struggled a bit since winning a maiden at Pinjarra last December; finished last of ten over 6f at York (handicap) four weeks ago; this looks a fair heat so looks an unlikely winner.

Knuckled down for third at Leinster for new stable. First time around Belmont Park. Not fancied.
ILB
Rattled home nicely into 3rd last run at Leinster and stepping up in trip. Should come to hand quickly. Jockey Ebony Johnson and trainer Peter Bamford are a formidable team. Respect the betting.
RP
Gave good account to finish third over 5f at Leinster (handicap) on debut for new trainer last month; managed just one success in his career to date; not been able to get his head in front lately so one to tread carefully with.
RSIS
Was strong late when 3rd beaten by 3 1/4L last time at Leinster and going over more ground. Jockey Ebony Johnson and trainer Peter Bamford are a promising combination. Watch betting.
