NEXT TURFFONTEIN RACEMEETING SUNDAY 30 JUNE MR 66 HANDICAP 1200m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 16)    

Strong early tempo assured with Nazare, After Hours and Prince Of Denmark locking horns. NAZARE (1) was prominent from the outset when third over 1400m at Greyville All Weather last time out. Has a high cruising speed. Best figures should see him run well. AFTER HOURS (2) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at this track, finishing third and only one length from the winner at the end of 1450m. Looks well placed in this line-up so expecting a big run this time. FULLIAUTOMATIX (4) finished fifth over 1450m at Vaal at his most recent appearance on January 23. Comes here with definite top-three claims. DELLA'S SWORD (10) hasn't been far away recently including last time out when third over 1100m at Turffontein Standside. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Sure to be thereabouts.
