SUMMER CUP 29 NOVEMBER CLASSIFIED STAKES 1800m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 17)    

They should get along early on with plenty of speed on show. FUTUREWOLFF (3) has decent recent form lines to his credit. He stayed on well when fourth 10 over this distance at the Vaal last time. Gavin Lerena is in the saddle and in this field he can notch up his fifth-career victory. WAR REPORTER (2) stayed on well when fourth of 13 over 2000m on this course last time. He is starting to return to best form and is one of the leading chances. FLAG BEARER (5) was a beaten favourite over 2400m at the Vaal last time. He won his only attempt over this course and distance. The 4kg claiming apprentice Girish Samo-Burthia steps back into the saddle and on previous form he can place. ROSY LEMON (6) is better than her last start run over 2000m would suggest. She has won once and finished second once from four starts over this course and distance. Serino Moodley may be able to get the best out of her when it matters most.
