www.galloptv.co.za CLASS 5 1000m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 20)    

Plenty of speed with Fate Of Fortune, Mask On and Lions Eye leading Music Is Life and One Irish Rover. FATE OF FORTUNE (10) has good recent form lines to his credit. He raced from a handy position over 1200m last time and tried hard all the way to the line. He gets the services of the 4kg claiming apprentice Damyan Pillay which will assist his cause. With a bit of luck from the widest draw, he should be hard to beat. LIONS EYE (2) ran a fair race over 1200m on the polytrack last time when finishing fourth of nine. Well paced here to finish in the top-three. ONE IRISH ROVER (4) moved up well last time but found one too good on the day. He jumps from a good draw of four and merits healthy respect. PURPLE POWAHOUSE (8) stayed on well when fourth over this distance on the polytrack last time. He has finished second three times and third twice from nine starts on this course. His last victory came under Athandiwe Mgudlwa and the combination merit healthy respect.

Last start 3rd of 8 at Greyville All Weather on July 16 over 1200m, 1.1 len behind Wing Walker with 53.5kg at $3.50. Not far away last time. Worth plenty of thought.
