Turffontein Race 4

Betway Summer Cup 29 November Conditions Plate

Prize Money: $10,110

Some handy gallopers engaged. GREATERIX (3) finished last campaign with a game fourth over 1600m in the G1 Horse Chestnut Stakes at Turffontein Standside on March 1. Has a win and a placing from two tries fresh and did win only start on the inside track here. Talented and will go close this class. CONFEDERATE (4) is another classy type who resumes. Was a Grade 1 winner on the turf here three back. Placed 2/2 when fresh and with the claim is right in this. BARBARESCO (1) was well off best form fresh but does go very well second-up. Loves it here and expecting sharp improvement. MONEY HEIST (5) won here over a mile last start and freshened since. Won only try at the trip as well. Tricky draw and up in weight but have to include.

Second run back. First-up after four months second last of 7 at this track on September 6 over 1450m, 6 len behind Argo Alley with 62kg at $34. Previously second-up won by 2.5 len at Turffontein Standside February 10 2024 over 1600m defeating Slinky Mapimpi with 55kg at $1.60. Loves it here and yet to miss the frame second-up including a win. Among the top chances.
