Is she sound ...or?

I think Jade Bay and Mr Ferraris's sprinter (name escapes me at the moment) would make these run :S

As it stands I think Barbosa could follow up (tu)

Think Sharp Design is the one you are referring to and agree with you on them. (tu)

Lung infection, hopefully all clear and raring to go

I will also give Via another chance

Clanners she put up a great gallop yesterday. She was scoped and all is clear. One can only hope that nothing will be carried over from her illness and that she is now 100% sound. What I am trying to say is only the race will tell if she is BACK ! Silently confident she is though.

David Thiselton (Gold Circle Publishing)
Via Africa put up an “exceptionally good” gallop at Kenilworth on Thursday and will take her place in the Grade 1 Cape Flying Championship over 1000m on Saturday.
Duncan Howells said that her blood picture was “back to normal” and she had scoped clear after the gallop.
Howells added that Milnerton trainer Eric Sands, whose yard Via Africa is staying in, said that she had put on some condition and was “exceptionally well”.
It was thought at the beginning of the season that the brilliant daughter of Var would have the Cape Flying at her mercy as her chief adversary from last season, What A Winter, had ben retired.
However the four-year-old filly was beaten in her last two starts in Cape Town and was subsequently found to have a lung infection.
Howells warned that it would still be “a gamble” to run her on Saturday as “only the race will tell”, but he felt it was a chance worth taking.

Red Ray for me,he also has da draw in his favour, early speed.

Interesting race.......i wouldnt totally ignore Victorian Secret. One of my favourites and won a cracker last time out
