BETWAY MR 80 HANDICAP 1450m Track: GOOD Clear (Max: 26) |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Good tempo with several going forward, primarily Mk's Dreams, Brave Viking and Palace Revolt. VIBE SA (1) last appeared when he got the cash over 1200m at Vaal on June 19. Has found the right race. PALACE REVOLT (3) has been racing in great heart with two top-three finishes on end, the latest a second over 1200m at Vaal. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. FOSTINOVO (6) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when fifth over 1400m at Turffontein Standside. Placed to advantage and can feature in the finish. SUPER AWESOME (8) returned from a spell two-and-a-half weeks ago when he was beaten 2.75 lengths into fifth over 1200m at Vaal. Fitter so a likely improver.
