Forecasts

Wokonda (11/4), Princess Philippa (4/1), Bureau Des Legende (9/2), Sister Light (5/1), Emerald Princess (5/1), Queen Of Shadows (7/1), Elusive Current (12/1), Juliet Tango (12/1), Eternity Ring (14/1), Crimson Princess (20/1), Kayla's Champ (28/1), Mckenna Skye (40/1)

14:08 Turffontein - 4 February 2023 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

SISTER LIGHT is probably the best recommendation but has little margin for error. Elusive Current could be the sternest opposition, while Crimson Princess might be tough to keep out of the minor places.
