Morphettville Race 2 - Sportsbet Adelaide Cup Day Monday 9 March Hcp (66)
FLAMING EYES (4) left herself with too much to do here last start but her closing burst was strong. She's rock-hard fit now and carries a feather with the claimer sticking. If she can land a pair or two closer, she'll prove very tough to hold out. SOMEWHERE SOON (9) is trending the right way, launching late third-up to arrive right on the line. There's more to come, and with Holder likely able to have her closer in the run, she's a major player again. TYUSIX (7) was a strong winner fresh and has been building nicely since. He's at peak fitness now, though he'll need a slice of luck from the draw. KING OF WESSEX (3) did enough when resuming here two weeks ago, and Toeroek's booking is a strong signal he's going well. Capable of giving this a shake.

Second run back. First-up after two months 4th of 11 at this track 0-66 on February 7 over 1800m, 4.5 len behind Longer Route with 55kg at $31. Previously second-up second last of 13 at this track Cl2 on August 9 over 1600m, on a slow track; 16 len behind Tropical House carrying 57.5kg at $21. Strips fitter and is among the chances.

At the latest run tracked the speed and boxed on steadily second last of 7 at Gawler Cl1 on February 11 over 1508m, 11 len behind Joviale with 60kg at $18. The start before that won by a neck at Strathalbyn 3yo+ Mdn-Sw February 1 over 1600m defeating Largs Legacy carrying 58kg at $5. Will need to improve sharply.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run favourite; won by a long-neck at Strathalbyn 0-56 February 1 over 1600m defeating Morlaix with 58kg at $2.30. The run before that 3rd of 10 at Strathalbyn 0-56 on January 4 over 1600m, 0.9 len behind The Ice Cutter with 58kg at $4.20. Sure to prove hard to beat.
