Draw: 5 (9 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 7/1
She returns from a 28-week break due to a virus she caught after returning from Cape Town. She’s starting to turn the corner and will race over 1200m. The daughter of Gimmethegreenlight will be better over further and this run will bring her on nicely. The stable has done a lot of work with her to get her fit and we’re hoping to see her put up a good return to the races.

He finished strongly when second over 1750m on this course last time. He’s suited to this distance and it’s a small field. The son of Rafeef is doing very well at home and he has a winning chance.

Breeding: Futura – San Trip by Trippi (USA)
Trainer: Duncan Howells
Jockey: Callan Murray
Wgt: 56.5kg
Draw: 6 (7 Runners)

He was badly in need of his last run over 1600m. He has improved since that outing and the stable has given him more work on the grass. He does meet a competitive field in his second run after a break. He’s expected to show good improvement and we’re hoping that he can improve to finish in the money.
Winning Form Comment: Ex Kannemeyer D-2025.01.18. 2nd run after rest. Gelded 2025.02.03. Best MR:90. Needed latest and can improve.

She stayed on at the finish when fifth over 1200m on the polytrack last time. Her work in the lead up to this race has been good. She’s drawn awkwardly in barrier nine and will be settled near the rear of the field in the early stages. She’ll be running on and is capable of finishing in the placings.
Winning Form Comment: 2nd run after rest. Best MR:82. Was not beaten far in comeback run and should strip fitter. Include.
