    Race Analysis

    GRISELDA (2) was less than a length from the winner in second at this track on debut before showing the benefit of that race experience when an impressive winner over 5f at this track last start. Capable of further improvement and can go on with the job. SECRETARY BIRD (4) was less than a length from the winner in third at this track on debut before showing the benefit of that race experience when an impressive winner over 5f at Vaal last start. Has plenty of upside and can measure up again. LANZAROTE (7) made progress last start when she made late ground to finish second over 5f at this track after being in contention on the corner. Going up a level this time but she has the ability to mix it with them. STAGGERWING (9) has filled a minor placing at both runs to date, the latest when beaten 2. 5 lengths into second over 5¾f at this track. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Not to be discounted.
