#YOUCANBETONUS! MR 80 HANDICAP 2000m Track: STANDARD |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Solid tempo expected primarily from Downing Seven and Brigham. GEORGE HANDEL (1) is a winner of his last two starts over this distance on the turf. The 4kg claiming apprentice Girish Dookhit retains the ride and he can bring up the hat-trick. RED WILLIAM (3) was an easy winner of his last start over 1600m on the turf. He has won once and finished second twice from four starts over this distance. The booking of Richard Fourie is a big plus and the combination merit healthy respect. ALADO'S PRIDE (5) was an easy winner of his last start over 1600m on the turf. With a bit of luck in the running he should be fighting out the finish. MAKHACHEV (2) has recorded three placings from seven runs this prep and is expected to be in the mix.
