Port Augusta Race 1 - Pastoral Hotel (Bm64)
STAR BLING (2) drops back to a sprinting trip in his stable debut and will appreciate the anticipated tempo. Has form in NSW that lines up quite well for this. Stuck on gamely in testing conditions last time at Nowra over the mile, that followed a win at Sapphire Coast the start prior. Ideally placed and can make a bright start in the new colours. ZATANNA (5) is mixing her form but is a speedy mare on her day and gets in light with the 3kg claimer engaged. Expect her to find the front and take some catching. OUR DIVINYL (4) is another speedy galloper that will be giving himself every chance up on speed. Drawn to advantage on the quick back-up and will give backers a sight. COSTLESS (1) travelled just behind the leader before taking over and scoring a determined win by a head here last time over 1100m. Found winning form and can go on with it now. ALL CLUBS (3) hasn't won for a long time for a long time but is one to keep in mind for exotics.

Before that 7th of 11 at Balaklava Bm56 on May 20 over 1050m, on a slow track; 3.5 len behind Squad carrying 61kg at $8.50. Excellent prospects in this suitable race.

Form hard to fault. Last start eased back early on 4th of 7 at Nowra Bm66 on June 15 over 1600m, on rain affected going; 2 len behind Lightning Speed carrying 57.5kg at $7.50. Before that won by 1.5 len at Sapphire Coast Ctry Bm58 June 7 over 1605m on a soft track defeating Shyamalan with 59.5kg at $5.50. Deserves another chance.

At the latest run ran second last of 14 at Morphettville Parks Bm62 on June 27 over 1000m, on a slow track; 12 len behind Bardigrub with 56kg at $26. Before that set the pace for much of the race 2nd of 10 at this track Bm62 on June 21 over 1100m, head behind Costless with 54.5kg at $3.60. Worth another chance.

Second-up. First-up after four months settled back and ran on when 6th of 10 at this track Bm62 on June 21 over 1100m, 8 len behind Costless with 55kg at $18. Previously second-up 3rd of 12 at Port Lincoln 4yo+ Bm56 on November 21 over 1000m, 1.3 len behind Shuttle Run with 57kg at $5. Fitter again but prefer to see a return to form.
