www.galloptv.co.za B STAKES 1000m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 23)    

Small field but a good tempo is expected with Un Bel Di, Twenty One May and Ishnana pressing on. UN BEL DI (2) is racing well, scoring two back at Kenilworth before finishing 0.6 lengths from the winner in third last time over 1100m at Kenilworth. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Best form puts him right in this. MOJO MAN (5) finished sixth when resuming two runs back then progressed nicely last time out to score by a head over 1000m at Greyville. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is capable of testing his rivals. TWENTY ONE MAY (3) ran below expectations last time at Greyville, finishing sixth and beaten 1.75 lengths starting at $4.50. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he has the ability to mix it with them. KALAHARI ROLLER (1) registered a strong win two runs ago then turned in a nice run last time out when fourth over 1000m at Greyville, beaten 0.8 lengths. Nicely placed to feature in the finish.
