Scottsville Race 8 - Hollywoodbets Bright Future Class 4 (F & M)
DAWN SURPRISE (4) produced a good effort when narrowly defeated last time at Greyville All Weather over 1200m. Long overdue with a string of placings. Sure to feature again. FLYING FATE (5) finished 1.75 lengths from the winner in fourth last start over 1200m at this track, an improvement on her seventh at Greyville All Weather the run before. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. LADY GODIVA (10) returns from a layoff of 11 weeks. Worth noting she filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1000m at this track. Worth plenty of thought. SHOWGIRL (9) returned from a spell five-and-a-half weeks ago when she was prominent at the corner before being beaten 5 lengths into fourth over 1200m at this track. Strips fitter and can figure in the finish.
