LONGER ROUTE (3) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by 1.2 lengths over 7¾f at Morphettville Parks as favourite. That continued the very strong form this campaign, with two wins from three starts. Sure to go well again. STRATUM PRIDE (7) finished 3.5 lengths away in third last time out at Morphettville Parks. On a seven-day back-up. Must contend with a wide draw but is a definite winning chance. DUVACH (4) was safely held when sixth last start over 7½f at Ballarat, beaten 3.5 lengths. That followed a good when resuming win at Geelong. Needs to be at her best to beat this field but she is up to the challenge. LOMAX (9) progressed nicely last time out to finish just a nose from the winner in second over 1m at Murray Bridge. Capable of featuring prominently.
