REEL WHISKEY (8) finished third, beaten 0.9 lengths, when resuming from a lay-off last start over 5½f at Gawler after he was prominent at the bend. Meets some better types this time but a big run will not surprise. IDRACOWRA (13) improved last time out, finishing 2.75 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 6¼f at Morphettville Parks. Finds a suitable race and can build on that solid recent effort. NIKOLSKY (14) finished sixth on debut then improved last start but found one better over 6f at Balaklava, beaten one length. Stepping up a level this time but on her best form she is one of the chief contenders. JACOBS GATE (2) finished third last start over 7f at Balaklava, beaten 2.25 lengths. Meeting a deeper field this time but he is good enough to play a major role.
