Queen Elizabeth II Cup Top Tip: The Map
Last time out, The Map comfortably disposed of all bar Excelleration in the Group 2 Adelaide Cup (3200m) on March 11. The five-year-old mare retains the services of Jamie Kah, and from barrier one, she will gain every conceivable chance in running. She will need even luck on the home turn, but as long as she avoids any potential speed bumps, The Map should prove to be the superior stayer in the Group 3 Queen Elizabeth II Cup (2500m).

Best Bet at Morphettville: Losesomewinmore
Losesomewinmore looks to have a stack of ability and showcased that on the Parks track on April 6 when storming home from last place to put 1.8 lengths on his rivals over 1000m. The four-year-old gelding steps up sharply in grade, but he looks the horse with the most upside in this race. He will be giving his rivals a start again, but if he can replicate the finishing burst he showed last time, Losesomewinmore should be sending backers home happy.

Next Best at Morphettville: Jazz Affair
Jazz Affair is hunting a third straight win having disposed of her rivals in easier company on the Morphettville Parks track in recent times. She is tactically versatile, having won close to the speed two back before charging home from the rear of the field last time out. Jake Toeroek will likely have her in the second half of the field, and with a well-timed sprint, Jazz Affair should be dancing her way to victory.

Best Value at Morphettville: Badonkidonk
Badonkidonk was a dominant winner at Oakbank two runs back, but he then stunk it up on the Parks track at Morphettville in tougher company. Kayla Crowther hops back on board and is the only jockey to have ridden the son of Widden Valley to victory in his career. He will gain every opportunity in running from barrier four, and with even luck, Badonkidonk can salute at a nice price with online bookmakers.
