Breeding: Jackson – State Coach by Jet Master
Trainer: Gareth van Zyl
Jockey: Athandiwe Mgudlwa
Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 13 (13 Runners)

He has gone off form in his last two starts and the stable have opted to revert to 1750m. He is going to be settled behind runners and we are hoping to see him finishing off his race. Sporting Post-sponsored Jockey Athandiwe Mgudlwa retains the ride and we are hoping for a positive run.

Race 5 – 14:25
1750m – Baratha MR 86 Handicap (F & M)
8 – Imperious Destiny
Breeding: Visionaire (USA) – Imperious Star by Navarone (USA)
Trainer: Alyson Wright
Jockey: Tristan Godden
Wgt: 57.5kg
Draw: 8 (10 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 10/1
Her last run is best ignored as she was fractious in the starting stalls and came back with a head injury. The daughter of Imperious Destiny is temperamental but Sporting Post-sponsored Jockey Tristan Godden knows her well. If everything goes according to plan, a good run is expected.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:84. The form of her penultimate run catches the eye. Chance.

Trainer: Gareth van Zyl
Jockey: Athandiwe Mgudlwa
Wgt: 58.0kg
Draw: 6 (8 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 4/1
He ran a good race in the Listed Christmas Handicap last time. He is doing well and is in a good space heading into this contest. We are expecting him to be involved at the finish and he has a winning chance.
Winning Form Comment: Ex Muscutt P B-2023.04.22. 3rd run after rest. Best MR:101. Good second in a Listed event last time. Respect.

Race 9 – 16:45
1200m – Hollywoodbets Bright Future MR 76 Handicap (F & M)
3 – Mia’s Athena
Breeding: Lancaster Bomber (USA) – Tinder Box by Strike Smartly (CAN)
Trainer: Duncan Howells
Jockey: Muzi Yeni
Wgt: 60.5kg
Draw: 3 (16 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 10/1
Her last two runs were well below her true capabilities. She returns from a 10-week break, during which time she has freshened up. She is very well in herself and is showing very good work at home. The daughter of Lancaster Bomber is more than capable of finishing in the first four.
Winning Form Comment: Rested 10 wks. Best MR:87. Better than last two runs. Chance if fit and well.

Race 9 – 16:45
1200m – Hollywoodbets Bright Future MR 76 Handicap (F & M)
11 – Hugsandhighfives
Breeding: Master Of My Fate – Forest Lecture by Lecture (USA)
Trainer: Garth Puller
Jockey: Doctor Lembethe
Wgt: 58.5kg
Draw: 11 (16 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 7/1
She produced good form lines before given a 16-week break. With all the rain about, the stable has been unable to give her all the work that she needs. The daughter of Master Of My Fate is expected to be in need of this outing and the run will bring her on for future races.
Winning Form Comment: Rested 16 wks. Best MR:75. Returns from a break and may need the run.
