Scottsville Race 6 - Tote Godolphin Barb Stakes (Grade 3) (2Yo)
MILITARY COMMAND (5) is a promising type who has scored at his last two, the latest over 1200m at Kenilworth. Looks well placed and can record a hat-trick. I'M A FIREBALL (1) was sent out as the favourite on debut over 1000m at this track last start and scored a strong victory. He will strip a lot fitter and jumping from the inside draw can go back-to-back. MALMESBURY MISSILE (3) finished third of 11 last time over 1200m at Kenilworth when sent out at long odds. This is an easier line-up and with Richard Fourie taking over the saddle can take this race out. GOOD FOR YOU (7) is a last-start winner when scoring over 1250m at Durbanville as the hot favourite. Racing in solid form and has each-way claims.

Claiming his maiden victory on debut; favourite; won by 1.5 len at this track April 2 over 1000m defeating Captain's Pride with 60kg at $3. Big chance to go two from two.

Freshened since getting off the mark on debut; scored a big 3.5 len win at this track March 9 over 1200m defeating Gotta Go Eddie carrying 60kg at $11. Unlikely to be contesting the finish despite that strong debut.

Useful type. Comes off a 42 day let-up. Most recently 3rd of 11 at Kenilworth on March 16 over 1200m, 2 len behind Military Command with 60kg at $17. The run before that won by 1.0 len at Kenilworth February 5 over 1200m defeating Vapour Trail carrying 60kg at $2.10. Genuine hope on best form.

Going well. Returns from a 42-day let-up. Most recently won by 2 len at Kenilworth March 16 over 1200m defeating Dreamworld with 60kg at $8. The start before that won by 2.5 len at Kenilworth February 26 over 1000m defeating Ashikule with 60kg at $2.70. Plenty to like about his prospects.

Recent form sound. Comes here off a 36-day let-up. Most recently favourite; won by 4.5 len at Durbanville March 22 over 1250m defeating Diamond Days carrying 60kg at $1.60. Before that 4th of 8 at Kenilworth in G3 on February 22 over 1200m, 7 len behind Direct Hit with 60kg at $26. Broke maiden status last time and is worthy of consideration.
