GOING:

LUCKY FISH WINTER FILLIES STAKES 2400m

Track: STANDARD   Clear (Max: 21)    

Anticipating a strong tempo with plenty of speed engaged. CURIOUS GIRL (6) found a couple better last start at Listed level at this track over this distance. Grade 2 winner this trip two back. Form over this journey is strong, boasting two wins from three starts. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Sure to be in the finish. GERBERA (7) built on a nice second two starts back at Vaal with success over 2000m in Listed grade at this track seven weeks ago, getting home by a head. Stepping up a level this time but on current form she is capable of another big performance. WOMAN'S WORLD (1) finished third two runs back at Listed level at this track then improved last time out to score by half a length over 1600m at Vaal. Meeting a tougher field but on current form she is one of the key runners. DUCHESS OF PALOMA (4) had been in great form winning two on end before missing the frame last time when sixth over 2000m in Listed grade at this track. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. In the mix.
