Port Augusta Race 3

Lj (Bluey) King Memorial (Bm58)

Prize Money: $19,500

STAR CASINO (1) is lumping more and more weight but just keeps winning. Has four wins and two minors from six tries course and distance and is the one to beat again. STAR DECORUM (6) was a big winner here two back then well off best last time. Placed 4/5 course and distance and is sure to prove hard to beat. OTTO'S DREAM (5) was safely held in very heavy ground at the provincials last time but goes well here and expected to bounce back to best form. GHEMME (2) was runner-up here two back then jumped straight into open class and over further and was safely held in the Cup. Back in trip and this much easier. Can atone. KIKORANGI (4) rates highly and should prove hard to beat.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. First-up led to the turn then faded 7th of 14 at Murray Bridge Cg&E 0-64 on June 13 over 1200m, slow going 4 len behind Platinum Wolf carrying 57.5kg at $61. Second-up sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 6th of 14 at Morphettville Parks 0-64 on June 27 over 1400m, slow going 6 len behind Falanghina carrying 57kg at $21. Racing well. Rates highly and should prove hard to beat.

The race before that held ground to the line 2nd of 10 at this track Cl1-Sw on June 21 over 1867m, 5.5 len behind Star Decorum with 58.5kg at $3.20. Goes well here and expect he will make amends.
