GOING: G

KEYONVARO MR 80 HANDICAP 1200m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 27)    

A hot tempo is expected with plenty of speed engaged. The race hinges around the Juniper Green form. HEMISPHERE (2) broke through for an overdue win two back then raced this course and distance last time for a close-up fourth behind Juniper Green. Slightly worse at the weights against the winner but that was first try here. Change of rider and low draw. Expected to take catching again. IT'S PERSONAL (1) was runner-up behind Juniper Green in the same race. Meets her worse at weights but has a great record this course and distance and can turn the tables with the right run. JUNIPER GREEN (7) beat both and with the claim again meets them better at weights so has to be included again. Has since dropped back to 1000m and ran well off best. Better suited this extra trip. SUPER AWESOME (3) built on a nice second two starts back at Vaal with a win over 1450m at this track two weeks ago, getting home by 1.75 lengths. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well.
