SAF - GREYVILLE   11 May 2024
 
GOING: G

WSB Aviator takes off FM 82 HANDICAP 1600m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 23)   True  

The pace should be on from the outset with Bitcoin Baby, Lady Lacewing and My Lady Soul pushing on from their low draws. MASCHERINA (5) resumes from a spell having finished second of 14 over 1750m at Scottsville last start when well supported. She placed second when on debut and fresh-up today should prove hard to roll. JAZZ CAFE (6) has scored at her last two starts with the latest victory recorded over 1400m at this track when sent out as the favourite. Rates highly. CHICHICASTENANGO (8) scored over 1500m at Scottsville last start when sent out as the odds-on favourite and was then put out for a spell. Well worth considering. MY LADY SOUL (3) resumes from a spell and having placed when on debut should go a bold race fresh-up. She jumps from an inside gate and has winning claims.

Dual acceptor. Useful type. At the latest run second last of 11 at Scottsville on April 14 over 1750m, 6 len behind Celtic Beauty carrying 55.5kg at $76. Before that ran last of 9 at Greyville All Weather on February 27 over 1800m, 9 len behind Zinikele with 59kg at $34. Better than that recent moderate performance suggests.
