Best bets for nine-race card at Morphettville on Saturday.
Best of the day comes up in race seven where Lovely Lookin' appears to be just that back at this level.
The Andrew Gluyas-trained mare was dominant fresh then backed it up with a strong fourth in the Group 3 Proud Miss. She now drops in grade and gets in even lighter with Johnstone's claim back on.
Only a few pounds off her peak last start, she's ready to go to a new level third-up. From the soft draw and with limited early pressure, Johnstone can roll forward and control the race. If she gets it cheap, they won't catch her.
Another I'm keen on comes in race two with the Robbie Griffiths-trained Divino Cavallo.
The Pierro mare made a strong impression in her first prep, winning two of her first three including a soft debut victory here in October. She returned at Sandown just over a week ago and while she didn't feature prominently, she hit the line well and was only a couple of pounds off her peak Racing and Sports rating.
Strips fitter, rises in trip, and gets in light with Clarke's claim. Looks primed to make a serious impact.
Say From SA
Best: Race 7 #10 Lovely Lookin' @ $3.20
Also backing: Race 2 #4 Divino Cavallo @ $4.60
