Saturday Horse Racing Tips at Morphettville 7/12/24

This week South Australian racing heads back to the Parks circuit.

While some showers are forecast, the rain will likely be beneficial with temperatures in the low 30s.

The rail is out 7m the entire circuit which traditionally brings off-pace runners into contention but still maintains a slight on-pace bias, especially in the earlier races.

Best Bets for Morphettville by Heath Pope

Race 5 #2 Arugamama $3.00

Arugamama is a talented mare trained by Andrew Gluyas.

She has been knocking on the door for another win despite being almost 12 months between victories.

In recent outings she’s had her fair share of bad luck including her latest run where she was severely blocked for a run and should have finished second behind the in-form Tippa.

It’s encouraging to see the stable now take advantage of a claiming apprentice, allowing her to carry just 56kg in this race.

This puts her in extremely well at the weights against this field.

Her record on the Parks circuit is another strong point, with five placings from six starts on this track.

Additionally, she’s more than capable of settling closer to the speed than she has in recent runs.

With more positive tactics, Arugamama looks poised to break through here.

Rated Price: $2.80

 

Race 7 #1 Riverplate $4.00

Riverplate is a super-consistent galloper who will relish the drop in class here, having recently been competing against far superior opposition.

His form may not leap off the page at first glance, but he’s been racing with distinction in much stronger contests than this one.

Importantly, he’s likely to settle closer in this field and the 60kg impost shouldn’t be an issue.

His formlines indicate he’s a proven weight carrier and he looks to be ideally placed in this race.

Against this lineup, Riverplate stands out and should prove very hard to hold out.

Rated Price: $3.80
