The carnival has moved on from Adelaide but there is still a little bit of residual form coming from those feature races which will impact some events.
Ironically one horse not coming from those contests is Aeratus but he has been beautifully placed by Mick Price.
After gaining confidence with the BM70 victory at Geelong on the Synthetic, he encountered issues in the run at Seymour and yet still overcame them.
He drops from 59.5kg to the limit here and meets a lot of horses who are out of form or been a while since they greeted the judge.
Price is great at identifying the right horses to head to Adelaide and gain a metro success.
Our Snippy can keep progressing through the grades coming off two recent wins and is a value runner.
He won two runs back at Oakbank and then moved onto the SA Sprint Series Final where he raced on the speed and kept on going.
The five year old will always run you a good race as can be seen by the fact he has not finished outside the first four in his last 11 runs.
Carrying the same weight as his last win, he can find the front and prove hard to get past.
In a massive field in the last, Trustam looks to go around at odds too short for mine.
While it is dangerous to be taking on Weir and Yendall any time, this is a very even race with plenty of chances and while she ran well at Sandown recently, this race is about that standard.
There are some decent SA sprinters in this race and we often see boilovers in the last in Adelaide so happy to risk a favourite in it.
