Gimmethegoodlife

J: T Godden

T: G Van Zyl (jnr)

Signs of improvement on last two runs; good effort when 1½l second 28 days ago in a handicap; one to take seriously.

IMPOSING looks the most likely winner here. He comes into this on the back of a string of sound efforts and has been a winner over this C&D. King's Island looks well drawn while the otherwise interesting Immah has a stamina query to answer at this trip, and Gimmethegoodlife poses a threat.
