Morphettville Race 1 - M&J Chickens (Bm80)
BAMYAN BUDDHA (1) is in career-best touch and proved his versatility last start when launching late to just miss a progressive type. The form around him is strong and he keeps the valuable 3kg claim. He's doing everything right and there's no reason he can't go one better. PRESSER (2) crosses the border after chasing a smart one into fourth at Caulfield. He won't find this as deep and reunites with Holder from a soft draw. Holding his form will take him a long way over a trip he relishes. FLASHING STEEL (7) is going far better than the form guide suggests and is nearing a peak after finishing full of running last start. He'll appreciate the extra ground on the short turnaround and is a genuine winning hope. CHAKADO (6) doesn't win out of turn but got things back on track last time and stays in the mix. ANGRY SKIES (3) is another Victorian visitor who can improve sharply off a forgettable Caulfield return - wary of him charging late.

Dual acceptor. Second run back. First-up after five months second last of 12 at Caulfield Bm84 on January 31 over 1400m, 7 len behind Until Valhalla carrying 58kg at $101. Previously second-up ran last of 10 at Geelong Bm78 on March 15 over 1400m, 13 len behind Georgie Get Mad carrying 60kg at $17. Still early in the prep and needs another run or two.

Last start raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 14 at this track Bm66 on January 31 over 1600m, 2.75 len behind Royal Fox carrying 59.5kg at $6.50. The run before that didn't do much in the run home; 9th of 15 at Flemington Bm70 on January 17 over 1800m, 8 len behind Fiorenot with 61.5kg at $61. Great chance to score.

Most recently 7th of 14 at Morphettville Parks Bm72 on February 14 over 1400m, 2.75 len behind Streetcar Apollo carrying 58.5kg at $14. The start before that sat behind the speed prior to fading 7th of 14 at this track 0-70 on January 31 over 1050m, 2.25 len behind Mic Drop carrying 60kg at $21. Will be hard to beat.
