GOING:

#YOUCANBETONUS! OPEN MAIDEN 1400m

Track: STANDARD      

Expecting Bugle to take up the running with Miss Takes and World Soprano close at hand. WORLD SOPRANO (2) is a 10-start maiden who has been in the money three times, Could only manage fourth last time out over 1400m at this track. Has a solid record at this track, finishing in the top-three three times. Ideally placed to open his account. Very wary of SLIVER OF SUNSHINE (4) who has not appeared since he was safely held over 1200m at Kenilworth on February 22. Lines up today for the first time for trainer Alan Greeff and has leading rider engaged. Rates highly and is likely to be prominent. GIMMETHEGOLD (7) resumed from a spell last start with a sound third over 1400m at this track after being prominent at the bend. Hard to beat in this suitable race. MONKEY'S WEDDING (1) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1600m at Fairview. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
