Sharon Kotzen – Eclair has a chance today (Pic- Pauline Herman)
Trainer Sharon Kotzen saddles Éclair in Race 3 and she is the best bet on the programme. She has produced two good runs to date. She found betting support when finishing third in her last start over 1300m on the polytrack.
The daughter of Flower Alley may be better suited to the turf and she will enjoy the extra distance on offer. She meets the right line-up today and should take a power of beating.
Keepingthepeace from the Alan Greeff yard takes her place in Race 8. She ran a decent race when fifth in her stable debut over 1000m on the polytrack. The manner in which she finished off her race that day was eye-catching.
The daughter of Visionaire would have come on from the run and will
enjoy the step up to 1400m. Xolani Ndlovu retains the ride and she may be the one to side with.
