SAF - SCOTTSVILLE   11 Jan 2026
 
GOING:

EPSOM RACECOURSE OPEN MAIDEN 1200m

Track: GOOD   Clouds (Max: 30)    

Camogie has good early speed and can set a decent tempo. CAMOGIE (4) has been in the betting at both starts but has failed to live up to market expectations. Most recently finished fourth over 1200m at Greyville, beaten 3 lengths. Finds a nice race and looks a great chance to repay supporters. GOOD OMEN (12) is yet to break through after nine starts but not far off a win. Placed two back then missed the frame but was thereabouts last time over 1400m at Greyville. Sits handy in the run. Overdue and expected to go very well. FULL MONTY (1) finished out of the money on debut two starts back then was beaten 4 lengths when sixth in a 1200m contest at Greyville two weeks ago. Has the talent to produce a better result. LIGHT THE FIRE (3) finished third at Greyville two runs back but was less effective last time over 1400m at Greyville, finishing 9 lengths back in seventh. Nicely placed to turn things around.
