GOLD BRACELET (Grade 2) - GALLICA ROSE aims to win final feature race for the season

The final feature race of the day draws the curtain on the 2014/15 Season . The Joey Ramsden trained GALLICA ROSE won this C & D in May. She won very comfortably that day and could repeat again this afternoon. her form either side of the win has been good. Jockey Bernard Fayd'Herbe has had very good success with this five year old daughter of SILVANO. In the seven times that he has ridden her she has won three times and placed second the same number of times. She should be running on again. She is drawn very wide but over 2000m that should not pose too many problems.

AMBER ORCHID has very good form, especially over shorter. One cannot ignore her chances on form, trainer and jockey. She shows plenty of heart. The blinkers made an impact last time and they are on again this afternoon.

ESTIDRAAJ has promised so much since she started racing in November last year. She has contested some top races, particularly in Johannesburg. The Mike De Kock yard will be looking for a good close to their season. Her only win came early on in her career, on the polytrack.

PATCHIT UP BABY ran well in both Oaks, the one at Turffontein and the other at Scottsville finishing third and fourth respectively. She may be more effective over slightly shorter but her chances should not be ignored. ZANTE is never far back. It would be fitting were jockey Gavin Lerena, winner of the Jockey's title for 2014/15, were to win the final feature race of the season.


1st - GALLICA ROSE (4); 2nd - AMBER ORCHID (7); 3rd - ESTIDRAAJ (14); 4th - PATCHIT UP BABY (13); 5th - ZANTE (12)
