Scottsville Race 4 - Gallop Form Maiden Plate (F & M)
PAST IS PROLOGUE (8) turned in a solid run when resuming last start over this course and distance, finishing third and beaten only 1.5 lengths. Really wound up strongly fresh and fitter again. Can go on with it. KALI BWANA (10) is still a maiden after 11 starts. Could only manage to finish fourth last time out over 1600m at Greyville All Weather following a minor placing at Greyville All Weather over 1400m the run prior. Overdue for a win and looks a major player on recent form.PEACH MELBA (9) finished out of the money on debut two starts back then was beaten 3.5 lengths when fifth in a 1200m contest at this track four weeks ago. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. SIYABAMBELELA (14) ran below expectations last start, finishing fifth and beaten 3.5 lengths at Greyville over 1400m. Nicely placed to make amends.

Racing well recently. Comes here off a 61-day let-up. Last start 4th of 7 at Greyville All Weather on December 9 over 1600m, 5.5 len behind Parliament Square with 59kg at $3.50. The run before that 2nd of 9 at Greyville All Weather on November 16 over 1400m, 0.6 len behind Blue Poppy with 54kg at $17. Overdue for a win and looks a major player on recent form.
