Race preview

Welcome to Murray Bridge for the Vinidex & Philmac Hcp (60) over 1200m on a good 4 surface under overcast skies. Punters eye off a fascinating restricted field where the market has gravitated towards Zestiman at the head of affairs, followed closely by Shaddap, Taking Omaha, and Nosie By Nature in the early win market order. It is a competitive race where the yarn on the track points to a genuinely run affair with plenty of speed influences drawn across the map.

Taking a closer look at the form behind those shorter prices, Zestiman comes into this assignment on a short back-up after placing in handicap 58 grade at Balaklava before finding the going tough late at Morphettville over this trip. He maps forward alongside Nosie By Nature, who resumes here following a twenty-week break after taking out a Mildura event last campaign. Taking Omaha is another worth noting, stripping fitter following an unsuccessful return in handicap 64 grade at Morphettville where she settled well back and failed to make an impact.

Further down the line, runners like Aloha Blue map nicely for the circuit and have previously outperformed market expectations locally, while Nicaloha catches the eye coming off a fast-finishing effort last start with the fastest overall finishing sectionals. With speed groups well distributed across leaders and midfield runners, punters looking for a bit of value can weigh up the stable form and recent barrier trial efforts as they line up for a cracking contest.

AAP

Controlled race and kicked away from them at Mt Gambier over this trip. Breaks from a low barrier and worth a look.

ILB

Handy enough when winning by 2 1/4L last run at Mount Gambier and has drawn to do little work. Racing consistently this campaign but will have to carry extra weight. Has some claims.

Has displayed improved form on last two starts; broke his duck at the ninth attempt when in front by just over 2l three weeks ago at Mt Gambier in a maiden; despite that Mt Gambier success, looks opposable.

RSIS

Displayed potential when winning by 2 1/4L last start at Mount Gambier and gets the perfect stall. Tracking very well lately but has to carry more weight this time.

First-up (20-weeks). In the minors at Morphettville first-up last campaign. Can play a role fresh in this company if he gets the breaks.

ILB

First up from a break of 20 weeks and finished well when 2nd first up last preparation at Morphettville. Must be considered here.

No impression when seventh of nine at Mt Gambier five months ago; has had some time off; others appeal more.

RSIS

Resuming and improved to place when 2nd beaten by 3/4L resuming last preparation at Morphettville. Has the necessary pace to mitistall the wide draw. Will go close.

First-up (20-weeks). Third run now in new stable/region. Winless since 3 Aug 2025 but was close in Benchmark 58 company at Bathurst first-up last campaign. Check betting.

ILB

Resuming after a break. Started at $6.00 and edged past some when finishing 4th last start at Mount Gambier on a heavy surface. Do not dismiss.

Missed the frame (beaten 7l into fourth) over 7f at Mt Gambier (handicap) five months ago; producing solid form figures; back from an absence here; makes limited appeal.

RSIS

Resuming after a break. Odds of 5/1 and was making up some late ground when 4th last time at Mount Gambier on a heavy rated track.

On a short back-up. Placed Hcp (58) at Balaklava 14 Oct. On pace but found little at the business end at Morphettville over this distance. Well into preparation now, right in the mix.

ILB

On a quick turnaround. Was $11.00 and found wanting late when 5th last run at Morphettville. Should jump out and bowl along. Expected to be competitive.

Grade looks suitable; not disgraced when fifth of 11 (Morphettville) at the weekend; strong claims.

RSIS

On a quick back up. Started at 10/1 and peaked on the run when 5th last time at Morphettville. Likely to be well placed early. Expected to be competitive.

Settled back and didn't figure off spell in the Hcp (64) at Morphettville. Strips in better shape. Major player here.

ILB

Started at $10.00 and was well beaten when 13th last run at Morphettville. Can show a better performance this time and competing at a lower grade. Shows good early pace. Will be fighting out the finish.

Finished towards the rear of 14 (Morphettville) two weeks ago; useful in this grade; some claims if in the same mood as when achieving most recent success.

RSIS

Started 9/1 and weakened under pressure when 13th last time at Morphettville. Can make a comeback and lining up against easier rivals. Should muster plenty of early pace. Will show up at the business end.

First-up (36-weeks). Ex Gary & Dean Alexander in SA. Long winless run but went desperately close in Restricted 62 company at Murray Bridge Gh first-up last prep. Betting.

ILB

Resumes after a break of 36 weeks. Started $26.00 and weakened under pressure when 14th last start at Morphettville and will be down in distance. May find these too slick.

Finished last of 14 over 7½f at Morphettville (handicap) in February; has won here previously; representing new trainer today; returning from a layoff here; competitive shout as has been on the scene in the recent past.

RSIS

Resuming after a 36 week break. Started 25/1 and didn't threaten when 14th last run at Morphettville and will be down in distance. Change in trainer.

Long winning drought but ran on with some conviction from back half at Horsham at longer odds. Looks up against it.

Void of early speed but she let down strongly at Penola. Winner this trip on a soft 5. Each way.

ILB

Displayed good finishing speed when 2nd beaten by 1 1/4L last run at Penola but goes up in weight. Looking elsewhere.

Running consistently; not beaten far when second at Penola over 5½f (handicap) 12 days ago.

RSIS

Picked up late ground when 2nd beaten by 1 1/4L last time at Penola but goes up in weight.

Close-up at Murray Bridge Gh 26 Sep. Sent out $31 when never got into the race at Morphettville over this journey. Handles all conditions. Right in the mix.

ILB

Looked flat when 12th last start at Morphettville but will find this grade easier. Good to see Jason Holder is jumping on. Could be in the mix.

Finished towards the rear of 14 (Morphettville) two weeks ago; easy enough to take on.

RSIS

Mediocre attempt when 12th last start at Morphettville but up against a less challenging field. Jason Holder rates highly. Can't leave out of your calculations.

AAP

Seasoned performer. Off the speed, picked up soundly and wasn't beaten far at Balaklava over this distance. Could add some value to exotics.

ILB

Was $11.00 and finished 5th last time at Balaklava. Won't find this easy.

A course winner; respectable effort when fifth (not far behind Zestiman) at Balaklava two weeks ago; assuming he steps up from most recent effort then poses a threat.

RSIS

At 10/1 came in 5th last time at Balaklava.

AAP

Largely struggled in her post maiden runs. Raced in back half and never likely at Penola. Prefer others.

ILB

Started $16.00 and finished 8th last time at Penola. Expected to settle towards the tail. Cannot make a case for.

Slumped a bit since winning a handicap at Mt Gambier last November; held when eighth beaten 9l two weeks ago at Penola upped to 6½f; others appeal more.

RSIS

Started at 15/1 and came in 8th last start at Penola. Likely to get back.

AAP

On a short back-up. Sent out $26 when never got into the race at Morphettville over this trip. Remote place hope at best.

ILB

On a short back up. Was $26.00 and disappointing display when 8th last run at Morphettville. Appears tested.

Close up behind Zestiman when eighth (Morphettville) on Saturday; brings winning C&D form to the table.

RSIS

Racing on a quick back up. Was 25/1 and not up to scratch when 8th last time at Morphettville.

Resuming (28-weeks). Better suited to longer assignments these days. Pitted against better company last prep but prefer to see after a lengthy absence.

ILB

Resumes after a 28 week spell. Ran 8th last run at Morphettville but matched against less formidable competition. The large claim from Alyssa Webb helps.

She can be competitive at this level; was eighth of 12, beaten 6l, at Morphettville over 1m4½f (handicap) in April; back from an absence here.

RSIS

Resuming after a 28 week break. Ran 8th last run at Morphettville but back in an easier grade. Large claim helps but dropping back to a shorter trip.

Odds correct as at Wed 28 Oct, 4:40 pm AEDT. Odds can change.
