GOING:

BETWAY SUMMER CUP 29 NOVEMBER MR 83 HANDICAP 2850m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 14)    

Plenty of pressure from Mo Ment, Damova and Enflame battling for the lead over To The Rescue. MO MENT (2) is better than his last start run would suggest He won a good race over 2600m on the Inside course in his penultimate outing. He is likely to find himself in front turning for home and can notch up his fifth-career victory. ENFLAME (3) has run two decent races since winning his maiden. He is a horse with scope and should give a good account of himself. TO THE RESCUE (1) changes rider since being well held last time out over 3000m in the G3 Gold Vase at Greyville. Forgive that latest effort and consider. ROMEO'S MAGIC (4) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 2400m at Vaal. Gavin Lerena gets the best out of this seven-year-old gelding and is a top-three prospect.
