She is in good form heading into the race and has maintained her fitness since her last outing. She meets a very competitive line-up, but back on the Hollywoodbets Greyville turf we are expecting her to be one of the leading contenders.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:80. Is weighted to finish closer to number 14 on latest. Watch.

Trainer: Gary Rich
Jockey: Stuart Randolph
Wgt: 54.0kg
Draw: 1 (14 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 10/1
She ran a good race in her last start on the polytrack. She tries the 1600m for the first time and her jockey, Stuart Randolph feels that she is looking for this type of distance at this stage of her career. She jumps from gate one and if all goes according to plan, she will fight out the finish.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:77. Finished strongly last time. Drawn pole and chance if stays a mile.
Race 6 – 15:05
1400m – www.trackandball.co.za MR 74 Handicap (F&M)
Trainer: Alyson Wright
Jockey: Craig Zackey
Wgt: 61.0kg
Draw: 14 (14 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 20/1
She is jumping from the worst of draws and is carrying 61kgs, which is not an easy task for a 3yo filly. She has lost her way a bit and we would like to see her running on and find her best form.
Race 8 – 16:15
1200m – Soccer Any15 MR 85 Handicap (F&M)
10 – Purple Merchant
Breeding: Trippi (USA) – Savannah Air by Western Winter (USA)
Trainer: Alyson Wright
Jockey: Lyle Hewitson
Wgt: 57.0kg
Draw: 10 (12 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 5/1
She ran a pleasing race in her first run after a 19-week break. The 1000m was a bit quick for her and will enjoy the extra 200m on offer today. In saying that, this is a tough field and she does not have the best of draws. If she runs into the money, we will be happy with the effort.
Winning Form Comment: 2nd run after rest. Best MR:83. Excuses at the start in comeback run. Fitter now and should bounce back to her best.
