SAF - DURBANVILLE   11 Feb 2026
 
GOING: G

GALLOP TV OPEN MAIDEN 1250m

Track: GOOD   Clouds (Max: 25)    

Piteraq to go to the lead at a genuine tempo. GIMME THE POWER (1) is overdue for a win. Low draw and expected to go well. STELLAR GUIDANCE (2) kept trying in a solid debut. Will come on following that run and can measure up this time. SPURIOUS (3) continues to improve and should be at her peak now after finishing in the money at this track over 1400m last time. Has the ability to figure prominently. PITERAQ (5) is a four-start maiden who returned last time and finished fourth at Kenilworth over 1200m, beaten 2.25 lengths. Will derive great benefit from that outing and deserves consideration.
