The Adelaide Festival Of Racing goes out with a bang on Saturday as a capacity field contests the Group 1 Goodwood at Morphettville.

Odds powered by UBET.

The $1million sprint at Morphettville on Saturday features defending champion Black Heart Bart who has drawn barrier 2.

Clearly the class horse of the race, Black Heart Bart is the $3.50 favourite for Saturday’s Group 1 Goodwood (1200m) at Morphettville.

If successful on Saturday, Black Heart Bart will become the first horse to claim consecutive Goodwood’s since Musket Belle achieved the feat in 1911/12.

The only other horse to have achieved the feat is Mostyn who did it in 1894-95.

Standing in the way of this rare double is Secret Agenda who claimed her first Group 1 a fortnight ago at Morphettville when taking out the Robert Sangster Stakes (1200m).

The Mick Price-trained mare is considered a $7.00 chance to claim the Robert Sangster Stakes-Goodwood double, following in the footsteps of the great Black Caviar (2012) and Platelet (2013).

Vega Magic ($7.00) and Malaguerra ($8.50) round out the single figure chances in the anticipated capacity 20 horse field.

The Goodwood is sandwiched between a pair of Group 3’s, the first being the R A Lee Stakes (1600m).

Darren Weir saddles up the favourite Burning Front ($2.40) who returned to the winner’s circle at Caulfield last start.

The gelding has won six of his past seven starts.

His main opposition looks to come in the form of multiple Group winner Hooked ($3.50) off a last start win at Caulfield and in form local hope Royal Rumble ($6.50).

The Adelaide Festival Of Racing concludes with the Group 3 UBET Proud Miss Stakes (1200m).

The Hayes-Dabernig-trained Fuhryk holds favouritism ($3.40) off an eye catching first up effort at the track a fortnight ago when second in the Group 2 UBET Euclase Stakes (1200m).

Fuhryk will be fitter second up and shapes as a popular option in the Get Out Stakes or for those wanting to stand one out in the final leg of the quadrella.

Value hopes in the event profile as Miss Gunpowder ($12.00) and Samara Dancer ($13.00).
