#YOUCANBETONUS! MAIDEN PLATE 1400m Track: GOOD Clouds (Max: 22) |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Strong tempo primarily from Takeachanceonme, Starlite Silk and Empress Of Peace over Secret Life and Anahita. ONWARD (12) is a three-start maiden who missed the frame first-up but has improved in subsequent runs, finishing in the money last start over 1400m at Turffontein Standside. Nearing a win and worth following up. ANAHITA (2) returns after a spell of four-and-a-half months. Placed 4/5 in first campaign including only try fresh. Lines up today for the first time for trainer Joe Soma. Winning hope. LOLLY WILLOWES (1) improved last start to finish second over 1450m at this track. Going up a level this time but she has the ability to mix it with them. BE ALL YOU CAN BE (9) is a three-year-old filly by leading Vercingetorix who was purchased for ZAR R 600,000 (Cape Thoroughbred Sales 2024 BREEZE UP & UNBROKEN 2YO SALE). Muzi Yeni aboard. Watch for leads from market fluctuations.
