Turffontein Race 4

Racing240 Pinnacle Stakes

Stake: $10,919

TAMARISK TREE (2) Did a good job when winning by 1L last time around here but will have to carry more weight. Maintaining a perfect record the last 3 runs. Expect to go close. PARISIAN WALKWAY (1) Disappointing outing when 10th last start at this track. Expecting improvement here and has drawn to do little work. Has early speed and positions nicely. Down in distance. Good chance in this event. SILENT WAR (4) Placed 3rd last start at this venue and goes down in weight. Gets a chance to win. MISS SCALETTA (6) Underperformed when 5th last start at this venue but has a good draw. Dropping weight. Genuine winning chance.
