Morphettville Race 6 - Sportsbet Lightning Stakes (L)
CAVALRY GIRL (4) has come back in career-best touch and should be at the peak of her powers fourth-up. Expect Opperman to spear across from the draw and have plenty to offer when they sprint. The one to beat. NEVER ORDINARY (9) returns after a promising debut prep that included a LR Dequetteville win. Is another speedy type that will give plenty of cheek at 52kgs. JACARANDA (11) is another promising one resuming. Was an eye-catcher behind subsequent G1 winner Fireball back in February in the LR Inglis Millennium. That form reads very strong for this. SIR MYKA (1) returns and is one of the more experienced gallopers engaged. Was good here in the G2 Tobin Bronze in April when placing behind Tycoon Star. If he returns in that form he will be fighting out the finish. BARDIGRUB (5) has progressed nicely this campaign and is fit, though this is clearly her toughest test yet.

Gelding returning from a spell and has won previously when first up. Finished off last campaign 11th of 15 at Flemington 3yo Hcp May 16 over 1200m, 7 len behind Wise Inlaw with 60kg at $21. When resuming last campaign third in a small field at this track 3yo Bm62 February 7 over 1050m, 0.8 len behind Violet Lovebug with 59.5kg at $8. Can give this a shake if presented on-song.
