Greyville Race 3 - Live It. Love It. Own It. Maiden Plate (F & M)
RED TAFFETY (5) Narrowly beaten last start at Kenilworth. Displays good tactical speed. Change in trainer. One of the better chances. LILTING SONG (6) Competitive effort when 2nd last time at the track. Winning prospect. PRINCESS TRIPPI (9) Tidy run when 3rd last start at Scottsville and getting better in recent performances. Will be giving the leaders a big start. Should go close. HOLLYWOOD HEIRESS (3) Disappointing display when 7th last time at Scottsville but back over extra ground. Jockey Kabelo Matsunyane is in form for this stable. Could be value.

Started $67.00 and moderate showing when 7th last run at the track but has drawn to do little work. Gets back and needs luck. Going up in trip. Cannot recommend as a betting proposition.

Resuming. Subpar when 11th last start at the track but has a positive alley. Watch the betting.

Underperformed when 7th last time at Scottsville but stepping back up in distance. Kabelo Matsunyane and Robbie Hill & Sha Hill are a strong duo. Not dismissing.

Odds of $41.00 and was nothing special when 8th last time around here but racing over more ground. Prefers to settle towards the rear. Hard to take.

Just missed last start at Kenilworth. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Racing for a new trainer. Major chance.

Was $41.00 and ordinary performance when 10th last run at Scottsville but having second career run. Likely to settle back in the field. Questions at this level.

Ran well when 3rd last start at Scottsville and showing improvement in recent outings. Likely to get back in the field. Gets a chance against these.
