Charles In Charge showed good ability in his debut campaign and was far from disgraced when resuming in listed company at Moonee Valley last start.

The three-year-old gelding is back in class today at Morphettville, and looks hard to go past on his best form.

The Anthony Freedman-trained runner will get a good run from barrier 4 with top South Australian jockey Clare Lindop going on board for the first time, staying over the 1200m journey.

Charles In Charge rates well on weight adjusted Timeform ratings and he should have the class to be winning his third race from only four career starts.

Earlier in the day Heart Of A Lion will look to continue his good form when lining up in the Distinctive Home 78 Handicap (1200m).

Winning at this course two runs back, Heart Of A Lion went on to run a good second at Morphettville Parks last start after not having much luck throughout.

Settling back in the field, the four-year-old gelding was inconvenienced at the 300m before working home strongly to run second.

Did show slower than expected recovery rates but has since had a freshen up and on recent form rates to be winning here.

Joe Bowditch who is yet to miss the placings from five runs on the horse maintains the ride and at $5.50 looks a good price in this company.

One of the features of the day, the Penang Trophy (formerly the Tokyo City Cup) appears to be a race in two with Star Rolling the current $2.50 favourite.

The form of Star Rolling has been good in recent times but looks up against it here when taking on Let’s Make Adeal.

The Nigel Blackiston-trained runner followed up a win at Sandown with a slashing fourth behind Foreteller in the Makybe Diva Stakes, only 2.7L away last start and with only 54kg will take beating.

Danish Spy, Detox and Araldo look among the other chances and at the $2.50 would be inclined to lay Star Rolling in favour of Let’s Make Adeal.
