Now the carnival is over, Murray Bridge hosts the Saturday meeting.
On a tough day, we're taking a Freedman invader in a BM68 over the 1400m. Open Minded won his first three and then got bogged down on a real heavy at Sandown in a Saturday race.
This is a drop back in grade and also in race quality without many well placed here.
While he is being asked to carry 60.5kg after the claim, he gets a lovely run from the draw and should sit right on the pace again.
This is always a good distance to race in a forward place as they can be on-pace events.
To the last where Rock Harbour is now fourth up. He has been getting a long way back over shorter courses and running on.
Over the 1200m on the big course, he will get back again but this race sets up with plenty of pace in it.
Well placed after the claim, he is in the easiest grade all campaign and last time in a BM60, he won at the end of last year.
Happy to back him each way on Saturday.
