BALISTIQUE (9) drove hard to get the verdict on debut at Strathalbyn. Is sure to have come on with that run under her belt and gets in low at the weights again with the 2kg claimer piloting. Can repeat the dose. SOUTHERN SHOOTER (2) kept coming but just missed picking up the winner last start at Murray Bridge. Has race fitness on his side now. Placed to advantage so expect another forward showing. SUNDOGG (5) doesn't win out of turn but has gone better than his form suggests in his last two. Gets the chance to take closer order from the inside alley and can make his presence felt. BELLAVARDO (6) is expected to show good improvement second up and a key booking with Nunes aboard.
