Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted 2 hours ago Journalists Posted 2 hours ago What Morphettville Races Where Morphettville Racecourse – 79 Morphett Rd, Morphettville SA 5043 When Saturday, August 30, 2025 First Race 12:17pm ACST Visit Dabble Morphettville is the destination for metropolitan racing on Saturday afternoon in South Australia, with a nine-race meeting set down for decision. Showers are forecast for Adelaide on Friday, and with the track already a Soft 6, the track will likely be a Soft 7/Heavy 8 come race day. The rail will be out 7m from the 1200m mark to the winning post and out 6m for the remainder. The first event is set to jump at 12:17pm ACST. Best Bet at Morphettville: Anthracite Anthracite is a lightly raced five-year-old who surged through the line to break his maiden over the mile last start, and this Class 2 sets up to suit again. From gate six Todd Pannell can park him midfield with cover, blend into it from the 600m and use his sustained build-up to grind past the on-pace brigade late. He’s already ticked the 1600m box on soft going, carries a manageable 56.5kg, and meets several rivals who either map awkwardly or are looking for further. With natural second-up improvement, Anthracite can go on with it. Best Bet Race 5 – #4 Anthracite (6) 5yo Gelding | T: Gary Boyce | J: Todd Pannell (56.5kg) Next Best at Morphettville: Karavas Karavas returned in terrific order here on August 16, stalking a strong speed before putting the race to bed late. The Jolly yard has placed her perfectly second-up at 1200m, and from barrier eight Jake Toeroek should get the same stalking run—one off, just behind the leaders—before exposing her on the bend. She’s bombproof on the firmer side of soft, and her profile says there’s still a rating or two to come. With several rivals resuming or giving weight, Karavas looks to hold all the aces and can go back-to-back. Next Best Race 6 – #4 Karavas (8) 4yo Mare | T: Richard & Chantelle Jolly | J: Jake Toeroek (57kg) Best Value at Morphettville: Nostryia Fresh off a tough 1050m win here on August 9, Nostryia looks the right each-way play in the last. The chestnut was forced to circle from the second half of the field and still put them away late, and his 1050m/track record stacks up for a BM66. From barrier 10, Jason Holder can tag the three-wide train, blend from the 600m and use his sustained build rather than a sharp sprint. He handles give in the ground, gets in with 59.5kg, and recent form around Halliwell/Bristler reads well. Best Value Race 9 – #7 Nostryia (10) 6yo Gelding | T: Kate Halliday | J: Jason Holder (59.5kg) Morphettville Race-By-Race Tips – August 30, 2025 Race 1 – 3-13-12-7 Race 2 – 6-3-2-8 Race 3 – 5-8-1-3 Race 4 – 2-1-3-4 Race 5 – 4-10-1-3 Race 6 – 4-7-5-6 Race 7 – 7-5-8-10 Race 8 – 4-14-15-5 Race 9 – 7-17-4-10 Saturday quaddie tips for Morphettville Morphettville quadrella selections Saturday, August 30, 2025 4-5-7 5-7-8-10 4-14-15 4-7-10-17-19 Horse racing tips View the full article Quote
