NEXT TURFFONTEIN RACEMEETING MONDAY 23 JUNE FM 90 HANDICAP 1600m Track: GOOD Clear (Max: 15) |

---|---|---|---|---|
Palace Dancer, Twostep Queen and Hillary Step to take up the running at a decent tempo. PALACE DANCER (2) won two runs back at Vaal, then finished a head second of nine over 1400m at this track. Nicely placed to return to winning form. MOUNTAIN HIGH (6) is better than her last start run would suggest. She won her maiden over this course and distance. From pole position should be involved at the finish. CEUTA (1) showed some signs of a form return over 1160m on this course last time. She should have finished closer that day as she was tightened for running room from the 300m mark to 150m mark. Two of her three career victories have come over this distance and with a bit of luck in running, she can figure in the finish. ACCEPT COOKIES (8) is a speedy filly who was a fresh-up winner at Vaal last start. Races well second-up and has solid each-way claims.
