It is Hill Smith Stakes day at Morphettville and that particular race has produced Derby form in the past.
However in the first Jim’s Journey races a group of Victorians but can stave them off to kick the day off.
He’s finally at his better distance now as a mile and a quarter really gives him time to balance up.
Last time in he ran a close fourth in the Adelaide Cup and before that had been right there at the end on Cup day at Flemington in that other long race on the famous card.
This isn’t Listed class which he has met so far this Spring.
Back to that Hill Smith Stakes and Volatile Mix is bred to be a real stayer and is nommed for the Derby as well.
After two close seconds, he won on the Geelong Synthetic but came from back to do it.
He should be handling this ground no dramas at all and in all likelihood they will be charging in a swarm from the back as the doubtful stayers fold. Watch for him late at value.
