Turffontein Race 3

Tab Storm Bird Stakes (Listed) (2Yo)

Prize Money: $16,849

Some promising types. WORLD ATTRACTION (3) impressed when successful as favourite on debut over 1000m at this track four weeks ago. Absolutely trounced his rivals and with plenty of upside can make it back to back wins. GIMME A VODKA (1) was less than a length from the winner in second at this track on debut before breaking through for a strong win over 1200m at Vaal last start. Capable of further improvement and can go on with the job. VOLCANIC HEAT (4) scored last start at this track to make it two wins from two starts this campaign. Has a high cruising speed. Take catching again. SPIRIT OF GABZ (2) was safely held when third last time out over 1000m at Scottsville, beaten 4.5 lengths, after a win at this track at the previous outing. Best figures measure up so deserves another chance.

Raced two times to date. When well in the market at debut, 2nd in a small field at this track on January 11 over 1000m, nose behind Spirit Of Gabz with 55kg at $1.90. Second-up favourite; won by 2 len at Vaal January 24 over 1200m defeating Nightshine with 60kg at $1.60. Led throughout to get off the mark latest. This race is well within his grasp.

Racing well recently. Comes here off a 41-day let-up. Last start 3rd of 8 at Scottsville on January 25 over 1000m, 4.5 len behind Master Magician carrying 60kg at $9. The start before that won by a nose at this track January 11 over 1000m defeating Gimme A Vodka with 55kg at $21. Should go well.

Looking to keep her unbeaten record intact. When well in the market on debut, won by 1.75 len at this track December 7 over 800m defeating Ruby Whisper carrying 60kg at $3. Last time out won by a nose at this track January 11 over 1000m defeating Griselda carrying 60kg at $3.30. Speedy type unbeaten when leading throughout both wins. Solid top-three chance.
