Came home eighth, beaten 11l, at Turffontein last month in a handicap; not made much of an impact recently in handicaps and sole victory becoming a distant memory; makes limited appeal as this looks a fair heat.

Verdict

GIMME SUNSHINE is hard to look beyond. She should have more to offer without much mileage on the clock and appeals from an attractive draw. Apostrophe has run well previously over this C&D.
