WWW.SOCCER6.CO.ZA MR 68 HANDICAP 1000m

Track: GOOD      

Plenty of early pace to be established by Swiss Walt, Notorix and Anuschka's World, with Seattle Ripper close at hand. MR BODACIOUS (6) has won once, finished second three times and third once from ten starts on this course. He is likely to race up on the speed and may be hard to peg back. MARQUEZ (1) won a good race in his local debut over 1200m on this course. It must be noted that the horse that finished second that day has come out and won since. He does take on stronger rivals but has plenty of scope and should be up to the task at hand. ANUSCHKA'S WORLD (4) followed up his maiden victory with a good second place finish over this distance on the turf. He has been gelded since that outing which may have been what he needed. If not in need of this run he should be figuring in the finish. NOTORIX (3) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 3 lengths away in third over 1200m at this track. Nicely placed to take this out.
