www.galloptv.co.za OPEN MAIDEN 1600m

Track: AW   Clouds (Max: 20)    

Plenty of pressure expected over the mile. CHERRY OH BABY (10) moved up like a winner last time before getting caught late. She has drawn widest of all but gets the services of Callan Murray who will give her all the necessary assistance from the saddle. O SPACE O (6) was his own worst enemy over this distance on the turf last time as he over raced in the early stages. He tries the polytrack for the first time and if suited, he can finish in the placings. SANBEENEE (2) ran on from far back when second over this course and distance last time. She returns from a spell which may have done her the world of good. From her good draw of two and if not in need of the run, she can place. TAKEYOURBESTSHOT (7) wasn't that far away last time out, finishing third over 1400m at this track after he was well back on straightening. The extra journey should suit and he is well worth considering.
