Turffontein Race 8 - For Hospitality Bookings Call 011 681 1796 Mr 100 Handicap

GIMMETHEGOODLIFE (5) hadn't been far away prior to finishing 5 lengths adrift in seventh last start over 1000m at Vaal. This easier than recent runs in open grade and expected to finish much closer. FROZEN FANTASY (4) doesn't win out of turn, scoring just two times from 24 starts. Did a good job last start to finish third over 1160m at this track, beaten 3 lengths. Placed three of last four. Closing in on a win. SLINKY MAPIMPI (1) was thereabouts last time out when second at Vaal over 1200m, beaten a neck. Hard to beat. THE SPECIALIST (8) turned things around last start and landed the prize by a neck over 1200m at Vaal. Nicely placed to play a pivotal role.
