Morphettville Horse Racing Tips Sat 11/7/26

Where’s the value at Morphettville today? We went through the nine races and came away with four worth a look, nothing we’d call a standout, just a few prices we keep coming back to. It’s a Soft 6 under grey skies, so the ground is worth respecting without making too much of it. Polar Eyes at $6 in Race 2 and The Cosmic One at $5 in the last are the two we’re keenest on.

11. Polar Eyes $6.00

Barrier 7 · Off Pace · Soft pace

The blinkers going on is the hook. #11 Polar Eyes ran second last time out and gets the gear change for Phillip Stokes. The pace looks soft, and while he settles back from gate 7, #12 Word Game sits even further back at $1.75, so I’m not touching that price on a runner with the same worry. At $6 with Harry Grace aboard, I’m on Polar Eyes.

Race 6
3:12pm · 1000m · Hcp (Bm66) · 10 runners

9. Paris Winds $8.50

Barrier 5 · Off Pace · Hot pace

Genuine speed up top, and that’s the setup #9 Paris Winds wants. She gets back off them and comes over the top late, which is where you want to be on a hot tempo. The favourite Tobikko plays the same hand from the back, but you take $2.60 for it; I’d rather have $8.50 with Alysha Warren from gate 5. Each-way.

Race 7
3:52pm · 2294m · Hcp (62) · 12 runners

15. Rikki Rikkardo $3.90

Barrier 1 · Midfield · No leader

The rail draw is the edge here. #15 Rikki Rikkardo can save ground from gate 1 while Lafont has to work across from wider, he comes off a win last start, and he pays $3.90 into the bargain. I’m on him.

Race 9
5:02pm · 1250m · Group Hcp (Bm64) · 12 runners

4. The Cosmic One $5.00

Barrier 2 · Off Pace · Genuine pace

#4 The Cosmic One keeps winning, two from his last three either side of a let-up and fresh again here. There’s genuine speed up front, so he gets something to close into from gate 2, and at $5 he’s better value than Anotherhouse doing the same job for $4. Take him.
