Luyolo Mxothwa rides Fresh From The US in Race 6 today (Pic- Candiese Lenferna)
Jimmy The Rich writes that Fresh From The US from the Sharon Kotzen stable takes his place in Race 6.
He has produced two good efforts since returning from a 14-week break. It must be noted that the form of his last outing has been franked.
The 5yo gelding takes a drop-in class and should be cherry-ripe. He is likely to have his own way in front and should return to winning ways.
Duncan McKenzie saddles Wicked Grin in Race 7 and he represents decent each way value.
He showed some signs of a form return in his last start over 1200m on this course. The manner in which he stayed on at the finish was encouraging.
He has dropped to a competitive rating and takes a big drop-in class. He should strip much fitter and with Luyolo Mxothwa in the saddle, he may be the one to side with.
Stallone Naidoo will not be riding today with the stipes permission.
