WELL WEIGHTED. Chestnut N Pearls will be suited by the conditions in Race 5 at Scottsville today.
It has not helped graded form followers that her next fourth place finish behind Lauderdale has also come into question with both Lauderdale losing her next two starts and very unlucky loser Persian Rug running unplaced at Turffontein last week.
The conditions of this race suit Chestnut N Pearls as does the drop to 1200m as she won over this track and trip on debut.
With the help of a 4kg claim from apprentice Eric Ngwane the Var filly Miss Varlicious looks the obvious danger but one has to trust that the Grade 1 form may be good enough to get Chestnuts N Pearls home first.
