Balaklava Race 4 - Sportsbet Fast Form Mdn Plate
Of the runners with race experience NEVER PEGASUS (3) is head and shoulders above. Has raced near the speed and battled on well although never looking a winning hope in his two runs to date, the latest over 1100m at Gawler. Blinkers on might give him that extra length or two. VIA NICCOLINA (9) filled a minor placing first-up over this course and distance but has struggled in two subsequent appearances. Another with the shades on for the first time which might spark a revival. POCKET PYRO (10) is a first starter with two jump-out wins from as many outings. Bred to want a lot further than this but she does look ready for a bright start. ZOURADO (11) is a Zousain filly on debut. Finished second in a recent Murray Bridge jump-out. Must be respected. TOTAL LOVE (4) weakened badly first-up over this course and distance. Fitter and can offer a bit more this time. FAST FOOD (5) from the Jolly stable lines up for the first time. Trial form has been encouraging.

Back from a spell. Finished off last preparation when last of 14 at Murray Bridge 3yo Mdn-Sw April 9 2025 over 1100m, 18 len behind Murph carrying 54.5kg at $151. When resuming last campaign eighth of 11 at Oakbank 3yo Mdn-Sw February 13 2025 over 1050m, 6 len behind Up The Den carrying 54.5kg at $201. No hope on what we saw last prep.

Lining up for just third start. When well in the market at debut, held ground to the line 3rd of 11 in a 3yo+ Mdn-Sw at Murray Bridge on September 9 over 1100m, 2.25 len behind Zerealm carrying 58kg at $3.70. Second-up 4th of 9 in a 3yo+ Mdn-Sw at Gawler on September 23 over 1100m, 2.75 len behind Kayla Kruzen carrying 58kg at $3.10. Blinkers on and there is little depth to the exposed form - great chance to break through.

Last start 6th of 11 in a 3yo+ Mdn-Sw at Murray Bridge on September 9 over 1100m, 4.5 len behind Zerealm with 54kg at $12. The race before that 7th of 10 in a 3yo+ Mdn-Sw at Morphettville Parks on August 15 over 1000m, in the wet; 8 len behind Super Wonder with 54kg at $8.50. Best form stacks up nicely so worth another chance.
