Just Be Lekker should be cherry ripe
The Mercury
|May 16, 2025
THERE is an interesting ten race meeting at Turffontein Standside tomorrow and the action starts as early as 11h20.
The highest rated race is a fillies and mares MR 103 Handicap over 1160 meters. Just Be Lekker should be cherry ripe and can go one better than last time when she went close to the useful Oxalis Gold over 1400m. She is equally suited to this trip and is capable of carrying top weight to victory under Serino Moodley.
Poblano
Poblano also has speed and class, but on the downside she has a low number two draw. Fastnet Filly is in fine form and is highly regarded, so it would be no surprise to see her win from a nice high draw under Gavin Lerena. Stablemate Artiste disappointed last time, but she has useful form in Cape Town and if bringing that form she will be a big runner from a nice high draw. Ceuta has shown good ability and is interesting dropped in trip being by Gimmethegreenlight out of Gr 1-winner over both 1600m and 2000m, Europa Point.
