Hollywoodbets-sponsored Trainer Gareth van Zyl sends out Asiye Phambili in Race 5, the WSB Gr3 Southern Cross Stakes.
She produced an eye-catching comeback run over 1100m on this course, four weeks ago. She carried a hefty mass of 63.5kgs and challenged strongly all the way to the line.
She finished 0.1 lengths behind Miss Marguerite that day and is 10.5kgs better off at the weights.
That should be more than enough to turn the form around. Richard Fourie is booked to ride, and she should notch up her seventh-career victory.
Kinda Wonderful from the Eric Sands stable represents good each way value in the WSB Gr1 Cape Fillies Guineas. She was not disgraced when fifth in the Western Cape Gr2 Fillies Championship last time.
She ran on nicely at the business end, before having to switch for running room in the closing stages. Her victory in the Listed Irridescence Stakes over 1500m, three runs ago catches the eye.
The daughter of Gimmethegreenlight should love the rise to the mile. It is encouraging that Gavin Lerena is booked to ride and with luck in running, she may be the one to cause the upset.
