The $107,000 Gawler Cup will headline the eight-race meeting at the Gawler & Borossa Jockey Club on Friday afternoon. The track was rated as a Soft 5 at the time of acceptances, but with no rain on the forecast, expect racing to go ahead on a perfect Good 4 surface throughout the meeting. The rail will be in its true position for the entire circuit, with the first race scheduled to jump at 2:40pm ACDT.
Gawler Cup Tip: Jenkins
Jenkins returned with a second-place finish at Morphettville on September 21, where the Phillip Stokes-trained gelding settled near the rear of the field and powered home late over 1400m. Although this will be start number 51, the son of Pierro appears to be going as well as ever, and a rise to 1500m second-up will suit. If Lachlan Neindorf can settle worse than midfield and find a back to follow around the home turn, Jenkins has the turn of foot to put himself in the finish.

Best Bet at Gawler: Ginger Sinner
After filling the placings in his last two starts, Ginger Sinner will strike a very winnable race on Friday as he drops back from 1200m to 1100m. The Richard & Chantelle Jolly-trained galloper looked to have the race within his keeping at the 100m mark at Balaklava before being run over by Dunreal in the final strides. From barrier five, Jake Toeroek will be able to settle in the one-one position, and with even luck, Ginger Sinner will prove very hard to beat.

Next Best at Gawler: Swycho
Swycho ended a run of top four finishes with a strong victory over 1250m at Morphettville on the Parks track, thanks to a peach of a ride from Todd Pannell on October 11. The Michael Hickmott-trained mare settled behind the speed before peeling off the leaders heels to take over and run away with a 1.5-length win. Even though she has drawn a wide barrier (10), Swycho has the speed to overcome the gate and can settle close to the speed throughout before letting down with a strong finish.
