TAB 4RACING APP FM 83 DIVIDED HANDICAP 1200m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 24)    

Big field with a lot of pace engaged so expecting a strong tempo. HONG KONG (1) came home strongly last start to finish second of seven over 1200m at this track when resuming from a spell last start. Fitter and can go one better. ONE PARTY (6) progressed nicely last start to finish second of 11 over 1100m at Turffontein Standside when sent out at long odds. Rates well as an each-way chance. HAPPY WIVES (9) resumes from a spell after having won last start over 1200m as the favourite. Jumping from the inside gate should get a soft trip in the running and can place. FLIGHT OF A CONDOR (7) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1100m at Turffontein Standside when finishing fifth of 11. Looks well placed here to return to form.
