Strong SA feature racing
Morphettville plays host to an excellent card of Saturday stakes racing this weekend, featuring a number of high quality events.
The Group 1 races are wedged between two competitive Group 2 events, which pose challenging betting prospects for punters.
The Queen of the South sees the gun Melbourne raiders arrive to plunder SA riches, and they look to hold the key.
The Euclase Stakes rounds out the day and provides an excellent "get out" opportunity for punters on the talented favourite.
Race 5 Queen Of The South Stakes (Group 2, Fillies and Mares SW&P) 1600m
Speed appears only moderate here.
Spanish Reef (10) is the most likely to roll to the front from a mid draw under little pressure to control it. She could easily pull their pants down.
I love the Melbourne form that Music Bay (6) brings here, following her last start 4 of 14 behind Princess Jenni and Sure Knee at Caulfield. She stays at the 1600m and with more luck in running can improve dramatically.
Clearly (9) is the money horse and has been heavily backed in early betting markets ($15 into $5.50).
Punters are likely focusing on the interference she was subject to last start in a "forgive and forget" run at Caulfield. She gets Olly to steer and looks a big danger.
Flop (2) is at huge odds ($41) in this. At no stage did she have a crack at them last start at Flemington, after being held up for most of the straight. Could surprise at odds.

1st Music Bay
2nd Spanish Reef
3rd Clearly
4th Flop
Race 6 Australasian Oaks (Group 1, 3yo Fillies SW) 2000m
Check out our preview of the Australasion Oaks here, which includes market moves, track analysis, runner comments and racing tips.
Race 7 Robert Sangster Stakes (Group 1, Fillies and Mares. WFA) 1200m
Read everything you need to know about the Robert Sangster Stakes here, including analysis on all the key runners as well as out top selections.
Race 8 TAB Euclase Stakes (Group 2, 3yo SW) 1200m
Although most speed maps have the tempo as moderate, I expect there will be a charge for the front in the initial stages over the 1200m.
Terbium (9) was the giant slayer last time out when rolling gun colt Zousain at Caulfield. He gets more weight (57.5kg) here, however looks vey smart and is still underrated.
Terbium defeats Zousain!

Track specialist (2:1-1-0) Humma Humma (8) must be considered a strong chance going off the impressive win here last time out in the Listed Redelva Stakes. She has tactical speed and can find a gun position midfield in the moving line throughout.
Gytrash (6) is the boom horse and has been thrown in the deep end here (Benchmark 82 to Group 2) to find out just how good he is.
I suspect that he is the real deal and represents a highly competitive winning chance.
Include Tofane (5) in wider exotics, who was well fancied in betting ($3.70 to $3.20 late) last time out at Caulfield. She must be showing plenty at home to the big betting Moroney yard.

1st Terbium
2nd Humma Humma

4th Tofane
