SAF - SCOTTSVILLE   28 Jun 2026
 
GOING:

GALLOP TV CLASS 4 1500m

Track:   Clear (Max: 26)    

Good pace with Zena's Act, Gorgeous Girl and Heavenly Mafia matching motors. HUNGA TONGA (8) registered a strong win at this track two runs ago. Fair effort last time out when third over 1600m at Greyville All Weather, beaten a neck. Andrew Fortune is a key engagement. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot make amends. HEAVENLY MAFIA (7) made progress last time out, finishing 5.5 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1600m at Greyville. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. OPEN SESAME (3) has been in great form with two placings in succession, most recently when beaten half a length into second over 1600m at Vaal when she was handy all the way. Meeting a tougher field but on her best form she is capable of a big performance. PAST IS PROLOGUE (15) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1.1 lengths from the winner in second over 1400m at Greyville. Finds a suitable race and can build on that solid recent effort.
