Race 6 – 15:05
1200m – Lucky Fish Turf Luck Class 4
6 – Scots Wae Hae
Breeding: Malmoos – Saltire by Var (USA)
Trainer: Mike and Mathew de Kock
Jockey: Gavin Lerena
Wgt: 56.5kg
Draw: 6 (14 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 4/1
He won a good race when shedding his maiden tag over 1000m on this course last time. The son of Malmoos seems to be in good form at home. The first run out of the maidens is never an easy task but the stable feels that he has taken a step forward and he should run well.
Winning Form Comment: 2nd run after rest. Won maiden at the second time of asking and the form line has been franked. Is progressive.

Breeding: What A Winter – Orchid Island by Silvano (GER)
Trainer: Wengesai Masawi
Jockey: Sean Veale
Wgt: 60.5kg
Draw: 8 (14 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 7/1
His last two efforts after returning from a 19-week break have been fair. He drops back to 1200m and two of his career victories have come over this distance. The son of What A Winter is doing nicely at home, and he can finish in the money.
Winning Form Comment: 3rd run after rest. Best MR:85. Not far off the winner recently. Trainer’s only runner today.

Breeding: Canford Cliffs (IRE) – Queen Laurie by Great Britain (GB)
Trainer: Stuart Ferrie
Jockey: Sean Veale
Wgt: 57.0kg
Draw: 1 (10 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 7/1
He is much better than his last start over this distance on the polytrack. He won his penultimate outing over this track and trip. The son of Canford Cliffs jumps from pole position and if getting his own way in front, he may be hard to peg back.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:94. Two-time winner from three starts over this C&D. Chance.

Predicted Betting: 2/1
He produced a good performance when second over 2000m on this course last time. The son of Ideal World took that run well and jumps from a good draw of two. Three of his career victories have come over this distance. He should get a good run in transit and should be right there at the finish.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:96. Good last effort over further. Is trending towards another win.

Winning Form Comment: Gelded 2025.12.30. Best MR:85. Should have finished closer behind the winner in latest. Is good each-way value.
