Polytrack should give Nel's gelding a Faire Advantage

Dec 10 South Africa (Greyville) form analysis

(7) ZALTA STAR made a promising debut for Garth Puller over a mile on the turf. The switch to the Poly over a furlong shorter should see her close.

Gary Rich's (2) DEE DAY has been knocking at the door for some time now with her best recent efforts being on the Poly. She has a good draw and is over what looks to be her best trip.

(1) SWEET REUNION has been trying further but her last run in the soft is best ignored. She is back over a more suitable trip and the switch to Poly could suit.

(6) LA MADDALENA is lightly raced and has improved with each outing. Her last two runs were in the soft and she switches to the Poly.

(4) HEAD GIRL is long overdue and Andre Nel's mare can finally shed her maiden tag in what looks to be modest opposition.

Biggest threat could come from the Duncan Howells-trained (1) ZENA ROSE who makes her Poly debut from pole position and is back to a sprint.

(6) FANTASY LEAGUE has still to show but does look capable of making good improvement and is one to watch in the market.

(8) SUNKA WAKAN has shown some improvement with claiming apprentices up and has a money chance in this field.

Louis Goosen is never shy to back up his sprinters if they strip fit and well and (5) WAR EMPRESS has her second run in just over a week. She was close-up behind Patants Heir on the Scottsville turf last run but she goes well on the Poly over this trip.
