SAF - GREYVILLE AW   03 Apr 2026
 
GOING:

Hollywoodbets BRIGHT FUTURE CLASS 4 1000m

Track: STANDARD   Clear (Max: 27)    

Hot tempo expected from Captain Ventura and Wings Of Josephine. MAGICAL SKY (1) is in fine form and hasn't missed the frame in her past four starts. Last time out she scored over 1000m at this track. Top chance once again. WINGS OF JOSEPHINE (9) progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 1000m at Scottsville after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Overdue for a win. Well placed to take this out. CATCH A PENNY (4) has been freshened up since a narrow defeat last time over 1000m at Durbanville. Right in the mix. CALL ME JANE (8) was racing well without winning, finishing in the money on four consecutive occasions, before finishing fourth last time out over 1000m at Scottsville. Should park just off the speed. Should give backers a sight.
