GOING: G

BETWAY FM 73 DIVIDED HANDICAP 1600m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 24)    

Fast tempo assured with Flamboyant Flyer, Twostep Queen and Easy On Me going at each other early in the piece. TWOSTEP QUEEN (2) has good recent form lines to her credit. She stayed on when third over this course and distance last time. Muzi Yeni steps back into the saddle and in this line-up, she should be the one to beat. EASY ON ME (3) fought hard for her maiden victory over 1800m on the Turffontein Inside course. She returns from a spell. She takes on stronger rivals but she has scope and should be well up to the task at hand. WILLOWILD (8) followed up her maiden victory with a third place finish over 1400m. She should like the rise to 1600m and she will be storming home late. IT'S HER WAY (7) has finished fourth in her last two starts after returning from a spell. She finished third in her only previous start on this course. She takes a drop in class and has each-way claims.
