SAF - GREYVILLE AW   22 May 2024
 
GOING: N

www.tabgold.co.za MR 66 HANDICAP 1600m

Track: AW   Clouds (Max: 24)    

Pace should be on from the outset with Silent Trigger, Justfortheepenny and Moon Harvest going hard, closely attended by Wave Warrior. SILENT TRIGGER (1) was running on well when finishing second of 14 over this distance at Scottsville last time. He has won once and finished second twice from seven starts over this distance. He jumps from pole position and rates well as the runner to beat. WOODLAND GLADE (6) hails from the visiting Mike de Kock stable. She showed signs of a form return in her last start over 1450m on the Vaal Classic course. She won her only attempt on this course and will strip much fitter. IMAGINABLE (7) was running on well when finishing third of seven over 1400m on this course last time. It must be noted that the horse that finished second that day has come out and won since. If not too far out of his ground turning for home, he should be fighting out the finish. KHANYISA INDLELA (13) won by a head last start at Greyville and is expected to go forward here to race up on the speed. Can sneak into the finish at odds.
