Port Pirie Race 1

Afford Engineering Pace (Sky 1)

Prize Money: $5,000

AGRIPPA (1) will be improved by his debut fourth last week at Globe Derby, albeit a fair way off the winner. Should enjoy an economical run from this draw so has winning claims. MAJOR APDAL (2) broke when resuming last week at Globe Derby. Fitter for the outing and draws well so can make an impact with manners. I NEED AGIRLFRIEND (4) will be fitter for two starts since a year on the sidelines so may be ready to show more. LOVE OF THE SEA (3) draws well and wasn't too far off the placegetters in the latest outing so could play a role.

Three-year-old colt lining up for the second time. At debut was driven from back in the field when 4th (Fr4) over 1800m at Globe Derby Park beaten 40 m by Rivergum Velox (2:13.80) on July 6 at $13. Open to improvement and well served by the draw.

Didn't impress first-up beaten 50 m sixth behind Rivergum Velox at Globe Derby Park over 1800m in a on July 6. Fitter and draws well so expect a much better run this time.

Last start 6th (Fr1) over 1800m after showing early speed at Globe Derby Park, at the bell was 3rd-3.8 beaten 8 m by Captain Caroline (2:15.00) on July 7 at $51. Before that, was well back in the run when 4th (Fr6) over 1800m at Globe Derby Park, beaten 19 m by Upton Miley (2:17.60) on June 29 at $34. Drawn to advantage and can play a role.
