Global Impact silk
Global Impact
J: K Matsunyane
T: M Pandaram
Found life tough when 10l back in eighth over 1m here (handicap) six weeks ago; has won here before; has proven competitive in a race of this nature; hard to dismiss as shown he can win fairly recently.

Went down by a neck here over 1m (handicap) last month; a course winner; assuming he steps up from most recent effort then has a competitive shout.

A winner over C&D; solid run when fourth at Vaal, finished ahead of Brave Viking two weeks ago; can be on the premises if duplicating the form of his most recent win and he has a good draw.

Finished towards the rear of 13 over 6f here (handicap) last month; has taken a step forward the last twice and hails from a good trainer; this only his second handicap outing; should be on the premises as a number of his rivals have questions to answer and he won a maiden plate two runs back.

Verdict

This looks a tight contest on the figures - Unsolved Riddle and Space Mission are shortlisted while Global Impact must be considered. However, it looks like an opportunity for ELUSIVE RED. He has shown a liking for this course and distance and is taken to confirm the placings after he had Brave Viking behind latest.
