GOING: G

GLENLAIR TROPHY 2800m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 22)    

Zatara Magic, Joy And Peace and Great Affair to roll forward and set up a solid tempo. JUAN CARLOS (7) has good consistent form lines to his credit. He was his own worst enemy last time as he lost two lengths leaving the start and over raced in the early stages. However, the manner in which he finished off his race to run third of 10 was encouraging. If Chase Maujean is able to switch him off early, he may find himself in the winner's enclosure. JOY AND PEACE (4) stayed on well when fourth of 10 as the odds-on favourite over 1900m on the polytrack last time. Five of her eight career victories have come on this course. She has Richard Fourie in the saddle and she should give the males a decent run for their money. BOURNEMOUTH (2) is a winner of his two starts this prep, including last time out over 2700m at this track when well supported. Jumps from an inside draw and looks well placed to record a hat-trick. ZATARA MAGIC (3) finished second to the above selection last start. He won this race last year and jumping from the inside draw rates well as a leading chance.
