SAF - SCOTTSVILLE   31 Mar 2025
 
GOING:

TABGOLD SOCCER 13 CLASS 4 1000m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 27)    

Cape Capri, Golden Chandelier and Mia's Athena can set the pace. WINGS OF JOSEPHINE (5) is better than her last start run over 1200m looks on paper. Her post maiden effort for third of 14 over 1100m on this course was encouraging. She runs well for 4kgs claiming apprentice Sifisokuhle Bungane and she is well worth considering. RUGGER LOVER (8) stayed on well when fourth of eight over this course and distance last time. She has dropped to a competitive rating and should be figuring in the finish. PRANKSTER (4) is better than her last start run over 1100m on this course would suggest. Both her career victories have come over this distance. She won two starts back and from a good draw of four should run into the money. JAZZ CAFE (10) didn't make an impact at her last run when finishing fourth of eight over 1600m at Greyville and was then put out for a spell. She has placed previously when produced fresh-up and should be included in exotic bets.
