Tough card at Gawler on the weekend as they give Morphettville a rest.

There is a horse coming back from Melbourne that can improve quickly and that is The Natural in Race 8.

She broke the maiden in Adelaide and then was only just run down at Moonee Valley.

Following a spell she didn't seem to handle a very wet track at Sandown. As a rule the Adelaide tracks aren't as heavy.

Plus the extra 200m has to help and the breed would be craving that.

The barrier lets Barend Vorster put her wherever they want to and she must be a good hope.

There could be some value in the form of Analytica in Race 5 over the 1500m.

He dropped away in his first run for the stable but that was over too short a trip and he did show a bit of speed.

With the ability to wet tracks he will be fine on Saturday and being by Shocking the added furlong benefits.

Suspect this week he will be ridden more conservatively which will only help him run on so each way is the play.
