Trainer Glen Kotzen has been firing on all cylinders when raiding the Eastern Cape this year and he looks to have found the right race for STATE CAPITOL. She is not the most talented filly in his yard but can win a race like this. IGNITETHELIGHT was an easy winner on local debut but that did look a weak race. Stable companion LA PEQUENITA is in good form and should be right there at the finish once again. FIRST WISH is improving and was full of running in her maiden win. EAT PREY LOVE is better than she has been showing of late. SPIRIT PRINCESS has lost her way but could be the surprise package.
Led-tired late when 25/1 and 4th of 8 runners, 3.00 lengths behind MARSHMALLOW over 1400m at FAIRVIEW POLYTRACK on 27 September 24. Much improved last run.
Slow-won well when 9/4 and 1st of 7 runners, 1.25 lengths ahead IGNITETHELIGHT over 1200m at FAIRVIEW POLYTRACK on 17 September 24. Recent maiden winner.
Stubborn-lost 1L when 25/2 and 3rd of 10 runners, 1.00 lengths behind FLOWER FESTIVAL over 1400m at FAIRVIEW POLYTRACK on 02 September 24. In good form-big chance.
Slow-faded out when 20/1 and 8th of 10 runners, 14.50 lengths behind SYMBOL OF LOVE over 1200m at FAIRVIEW on 06 September 24. Battling to regain form.
Slow-no extra when 11/2 and 8th of 8 runners, 5.30 lengths behind MARSHMALLOW over 1400m at FAIRVIEW POLYTRACK on 27 September 24. Disappointing last run.
No extra late when 5/2 and 6th of 10 runners, 3.25 lengths behind FLOWER FESTIVAL over 1400m at FAIRVIEW POLYTRACK on 02 September 24. Capable of doing better.
Ran on late when 6/1 and 7th of 10 runners, 3.35 lengths behind FLOWER FESTIVAL over 1400m at FAIRVIEW POLYTRACK on 02 September 24. Should be in the shake-up.
Slow-won easily when 9/2 and 1st of 9 runners, 1.75 lengths ahead GALAXY MOMENT over 1600m at FAIRVIEW POLYTRACK on 17 September 24. Could play a minor role.
Did not quicken when 25/1 and 5th of 8 runners, 3.25 lengths behind MARSHMALLOW over 1400m at FAIRVIEW POLYTRACK on 27 September 24. Might play a minor role.
