    Race Analysis

    REAL STUNNER (2) produced a reasonable effort when third last start over 1m2f at Turffontein Standside, beaten 2. 25 lengths. That followed a win at this track the start prior. Finds a suitable assignment and can get the job done. BELLEROPHON (4) finished 3. 5 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1m1/2f at this track after being prominent at the bend a month ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Best figures should see him run well. REPETITION (3) finished second last start at the first run back from a lay-off over 1m2f at Turffontein Standside, beaten one length. This is the right race and can find winning form. SKY PILLAR ROCK (1) was safely held when fifth last time out over 1m2f at this track, beaten 3. 5 lengths, after a win at this track at the previous outing. Nicely placed to figure in the finish.
