He is returning from a 13-week break and may just be in need of the run. However, he is showing good work at home and he has an each way chance with Grant van Niekerk in the saddle.

Trainer: Sean Tarry
Jockey: Sean Veale
Wgt: 60.0kg

She needed her last start more than anticipated. She has come on since that run and improvement is expected. She can run into the money.
Winning Form Comment: 2nd run after rest. Best MR:109. Needed comeback run badly. Chance on consistent prior form.

Trainer: Sean Tarry
Jockey: Keagan de Melo

She is an interesting runner as she comes into this contest with a nice weight of 53kgs. She is trying the blinkers for the first time which her trainer feels will help her. It is a competitive field, but she is capable of finishing in the first three.
Winning Form Comment: Rested 12 wks. Blinkers ON. Best MR:93. Is 3kgs better off with number 7 on latest. Tries blinkers.

Race 5 – 13:50
1160m – World Sports Betting Merchants (Grade 3)
3 – Chimichuri Run
Breeding: Trippi (USA) – Spiced Gold by Kahal (GB)
Trainer: Sean Tarry
Jockey: Gavin Lerena
Wgt: 61.0kg
Draw: 9 (16 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 16/1
This is his third run after a rest and he is doing very well. He reunites with Gavin Lerena who he has got along well with in the past. He does have to give a lot weight away to other runners, but he has class and should give the other horses a lot to think about.
Winning Form Comment: 3rd run after rest. Blinkers ON. Best MR:126. Has upset potential.
11 – Ikigai
Breeding: Vercingetorix – Al Shiba by Al Mufti (USA)
Trainer: Sean Tarry
Jockey: Grant van Niekerk
Wgt: 54.5kg
Draw: 10 (16 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 16/1
His preparation for this race has gone very well. He has a nice galloping weight of 54.5kgs and gets the services of top jockey Grant van Niekerk. It is a very competitive and open race, but he is moving very well and should be in the firing line.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:118. Drops back to sprinting and is a three-time winner on this course. Can upset.

Jockey: Kabelo Matsunyane
