Fairview Race 1

Prize Money: $6,372

ALADO'S HABIT (7) produced a promising debut effort. The manner in which she finished off her race that day was eye-catching. She would have gained from the experience and with the natural improvement that is expected, she should be the one to beat. MILLION REASONS (1) rallied late when second here last time. The blinkers have done the trick. She has Calvin Habib on board and he may be able to coax that little bit extra out of her where it matters most. TUNE AGAIN (6) should have finished closer to the winner last time. She finished 1.25 lengths behind the top pick in her penultimate run. She is 1kg better off at the weights today and there should not be much separating the pair at the finish. SWEET NOTHINGS (2) is having her first run for Trainer Alan Greeff. She gets the tongue-tie fitted and stable jockey Richard Fourie is booked to ride. If taking to the poly track, there should be good improvement to come. Each way value.
