GOING: GS

WORLD SPORTS BETTING MR 76 HANDICAP 1900m

Track: SOFT   Rain (Max: 20)    

Expecting a very strong tempo with lots of early pressure, predominantly from Mr Hotstepper, Send Me and Riccardo. HIGH QUEUE (4) is backing up quickly after finishing in the money at Turffontein Standside over 1800m just eight days ago. Strong run last time and shapes well as a major threat. VIEW OF THE WORLD (6) had been in great form winning two on end before finishing third last time out over 1600m at this track. Hard to fault and can atone. FRENCH TRIP (5) is coming off a last-start fourth, beaten 3.5 lengths, over 2300m at this track. Has definite each-way claims. SEND ME (2) has not appeared since he finished ninth over 2400m at Scottsville on July 17. Sure to make his presence felt.
