PORT LINCOLN CUP DAY

PORT LINCOLN CUP Thrill Kill brings solid form here winning the Coonawarra Cup three starts back and his Kangaroo Island Cup effort last start when 2nd behind Eureka's Victory was very good. That form can stand up here. I Need A Drink has been in good form, gets the claim and looks the pick of the locals, stablemate Ahso has gained a run and is the one at massive odds who could bob up. Splash Some Cash has been well backed since markets opened, he was big odds for a horse who has won this race the last two years and his latest run in the KI Cup was OK, but he does draw wide. Shakespeare has been easy in betting but brings some solid form into this. THE ART OF LFYING has been solid his past couple. Morty is a horse who has won at Group 3 level. GRINZINGER ALEE has been set for this.

SELECTIONS: 3 THRILL KILL, 4 Eureka's Victory, 5 Shakespeare, 11 Grinzinger Allee PLAY: Backing THRILL KILL and having a small speck on AHSO at massive odds.

BEST BET

Ok Gerry Race 1, No. 10 Was sent out a $2.60 favourite at Morphettville on debut last March when she was good behind Jewel Bay. Placed first up this time around at Murray Bridge and was then well beaten behind Desert Dancing before another OK run at Oakbank when 4th behind Sellix. Draws the inside and this looks her chance to get a maiden out of the way.

ROUGHIE

Zofferella Race 6, No. 11 Walked out of the gates last time and gave rivals as much as four lengths with 800m to run. Saved ground by sticking to the rail before the runs closed inside the 200m. Switched around heels late and still had something to offer and was beaten only 2.7 lengths behind Rock Hard. Worth an each-way ticket.
