Trainer Roy Magner sends out Olivia’s Way in Race 4.
She won a good race in her last start over this course and distance.
She ran on powerfully to get the better of Linganomore. It must be noted that multiple horses from that form line have come out and won since.
She does take on stronger but is a filly with ability and she carries a handy galloping mass of 53kgs. The daughter of Pathfork can follow up with another victory.
In The Ether from the Grant Maroun stable may be the horse to close off the meeting.
She was doing her best work late when third over this distance last time. She has won once, finished second once and third twice from eight starts over this course and distance.
The 6yo mare is back against her own sex.
Philasande Mxoli returns to the saddle and she will be mowing down the frontrunners.
