Hollywoodbets-sponsored Trainer Clinton Binda sends out Smashing in Race 2 (Pic – Candiese Lenferna)
Hollywoodbets-sponsored Trainer Clinton Binda sends out Smashing in Race 2. She produced a promising debut effort when fourth in male company over this course and distance.
The daughter of Rafeef would have gained from the experience.
Apprentice Siyanda Sosibo retains the ride and against her own sex, she may find herself in the winner’s enclosure.
Birthright from the Alec Laird stable takes his place in Race 3.
He set the pace in his last start over 1600m on this course, found another kick and drew clear of the opposition.
He does take on stronger company but is lightly raced and has plenty of scope. He should get his own way in front and may be hard to peg back.
