GOING:

WORLD SPORTS BETTING DASH 400m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 20)    

Sizzling pace from Million Voices, Holds The Key and Trafalgar Square locking horns ahead of Donquerari and Lightning Jimmy. NO FILTER (9) is better than her last start run would suggest. She would have come on from that outing and should strip much fitter. Her best form has come under S'manga Khumalo. The blinkers will sharpen her up and if getting away on terms, she should be winning. THE ABDICATOR (8) is having his first run for the Mike and Mathew de Kock stable. He has shown speed in his last two races over 1000m. Kabelo Matsunyane rides and he has winning claims. HOLDS THE KEY (2) is a 2yo taking on older horses. He returns from a spell and is having his first run as a gelding. The blinkers should sharpen him up. The son of What A Winter has shown speed in his races and would not be a shock winner. DONQUERARI (6) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1100m at Scottsville. This doesn't look as hard so he is set to turn things around.
