The Bipot commences in the second race at 13h25.

Mike de Kock has some nice runners today
An interesting runner returning from a 219 day rest is Mike de Kock’s Gin Fizz, a daughter of Soft Falling Rain who won well on debut but was then beaten by Basadi Faith, who proved more than four lengths better in two subsequent features, the Ruffian Stakes and the SA Fillies Nursery, over 1000m and 1160m respectively.
In between those two she was also beaten by Palace Of Dreams in the Pretty Polly Stakes, although just by 0.50 lengths.
She runs in the fourth and the stable indicate that while she is not one hundred percent fit, she should be competitive
The false rail is set at 2,5m on the back straight to 6m on the bend, with a 6m spur at the 500m mark.
