Gawler Tips May 27
Advanced Transport Refrigeration Tips (Race 3)
Gawler Best Bet - Race 3 No. 3 Live Forever
There was mixed form in his only three runs for the Hayes yard in Victoria, with comfortably the best of those performances coming at Ararat on a Soft 7 surface, where he recorded the second-fastest final 200m of the March 3 program when placing.
Off a solid Oakbank trial on April 30, the three-year-old was respected in the market for his South Australian debut on May 17.
Live Forever worked home nicely there for second and was not beaten far, while also recording the fastest final 200m of that meeting.
While remaining at 1200m on Wednesday looks a slight query, classy veteran hoop Jason Holder remains aboard.
Getting back on rain-affected ground could also prove the key for the son of Your Song.
Ruby Tuesday Foundation Maiden Plate Tips (Race 4)
Gawler Value Bet - Race 4 No. 13 Kappa
Without setting the world on fire, there was enough shown in most of Kappa’s lead-up work for the Michael Hickmott stable.
The only disappointing heat came in a Morphettville trial last month when the gelding was ridden on speed with blinkers applied, a gear change that remained for his debut run.
However, Kappa appeared much more comfortable both in that race-day appearance and in his other jump-out work when ridden colder.
The gelding finished off nicely from back in the field for a seventh-of-12 finish at Strathalbyn on May 17.
That effort suggested the rise in distance should suit on Wednesday in a maiden that appears no harder.

Gawler Next Best Bet - Race 6 No. 6 Pretentious Lass
Underfoot conditions are what give Pretentious Lass a serious sniff first-up on Wednesday, despite arriving off no public work and with the short, failed summer preparation an obvious concern.
Her prior performances on wet ground were more than solid, including a first-up victory at Morphettville earlier in the season.
The mare’s spring campaign also culminated with a third-place finish on a Heavy 9 surface at Mount Gambier.
Her previous Soft and Heavy-track form was consistent either side of the firmer-track appearances.
Pretentious Lass also boasts strong Gawler statistics, with three wins recorded at the track and looks well treated with 55.5kg after Jemma Gutte’s claim.
