SAF - GREYVILLE AW   29 Jun 2024
 
GOING: N

EDEN ROC MR 74 HANDICAP 1400m

Track: STANDARD   Clear (Max: 22)    

A few on-pacers lining up so it should be keenly contested. PHAKA IMALI (8) has been in good form, scoring three back at this track then placing twice in a row, most recently finishing second of 11 over 1200m at this track. Looks well placed in this line-up so expecting another big run. IMAGINABLE (4) is racing well this prep and has each-way claims following a game run to finish third of nine last start. BENNI IN THE AREA (2) has been in the money at his last couple of runs, the latest when third over 1200m at this track. Rates well as one of the main dangers. STRAWBERRY STINGER (10) finished third of 10 last start over 1200m at this track. Having his fifth run this prep so should be cherry-ripe. Has each-way claims.
