Trots AT Port Pirie

7-8 Port Pirie 28Oct26 1609MS $5,000 NR up to 40 Sr1 B M Loizeau $71, btn 37m, wnr Normans Girl 0, 1:58.8 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Second-up after finishing seventh in a NR up to 40 at Port Pirie, tailed off behind Normans Girl after being sent around at long odds. His previous run here was a fourth in a small field, beaten over 16 metres by Brobenah Girl, also at long odds. Fr1 helps, but recent margins say he has to improve sharply.

3-6 Port Pirie 28Oct26 1609MS $3,500 MAIDEN Fr4 Todd Mumford $8, btn 10.7m, wnr Darlington 0, 1:59.4 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Improved to run third over 1609m at Port Pirie last start, albeit beaten over 11 metres by Darlington in a six-horse field. The run prior was tougher reading, finishing seventh in a 1 LIFETIME WIN here at big odds, though that race was run in a sharp 1:56.5 mile rate. Draws for another strong showing.

8-9 Gawler 14Oct26 1609MS $5,000 MAIDEN 3U Fr4 Ryan Hryhorec $3, btn 41.3m, wnr Clarenden Arcadia 0, 2:00.6 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Broke gait briefly during the score-up but regained its correct position before the start. Raced roughly shortly after the start. Received a warning.

Three-year-old filly facing the starter for the second time.

1-6 Gawler 27Oct26 1609SS Trial Fr2 Wayne Hill won by 1.3m, 2nd CLARENDEN NITRO 0.0, (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Debuts from Fr3 with Wayne Hill taking the drive, and the preparation has substance after a comfortable Gawler trial win. She also scored in an 1800m trial at Globe Derby Park a week earlier, while the P C Bain stable's debut record is strong. Full sibling Willows Girl adds genuine family depth through G1 and G2 feature form. Looking good at the trials so can kick off wit a win.

4-10 Globe Derby Park 02Nov26 1800MS $5,000 MAIDEN Sr3 Dale Afford $151, btn 15.9m, wnr Clarenden Nitro 0, 2:00.4 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Drops out of a metro run at Globe Derby Park, where he finished fourth over 1800m at long odds and was beaten over 16 metres by Clarenden Nitro. Two back he was near the top of an open market at Port Pirie but finished fourth and well beaten behind Darlington. Building in fitness and ticking along well.

4-6 Gawler 27Oct26 1609SS Trial Fr3 M M Maguire btn 34.7m, wnr SWEETHEARTED 0.0, (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Returns from a five-week freshening after a costly Mildura debut, where she started favourite but finished last and beaten out of sight behind Feefifofum. Stewards reported she broke stride at the first turn and again near 1300m, so the run is forgivable only if the manners improve. Favourite there, so ability was respected, but manners must be cleaner.
