April 22 South Africa (Fairview) form analysis
-
RACE 1 (1,200M) (2) BLOWN AWAY seems to have found a few good winners to deny her victory. She tries the Polytrack for the first time but also gets Richard Fourie aboard.
(6) IVY shows pace, so she could be a threat if allowed a soft lead.
(7) MIND FREEZE will like it back on the Polytrack.
(8) PRICELESS TREASURE did not show her best last time but should fight it out.
RACE 2 (1,200M) Anything is possible in this weak race.
(2) RUBY CLAIRE is suited to this course and distance and gets a narrow vote to score.
(1) FANTASY GIRL returns from a break but would not be a surprise winner.
(3) NEMOROSA showed improvement last time and could have more to offer.
(5) CITY OF DREAMS makes her local debut after a change of trainers and has a winning chance.
(6) OPERA VERSE has been a disappointment this year but did show improvement last time and is not out of it.
