Azzzies’ charge takes a shot at the Vaal

December 2022

Jack Milner

 

The scratching of Southern Skies and Karangetang from Race 7, a Graduation Plate over 1200m on the Vaal Classic track, on Thursday, has paved the way for Gimme A Shot to add another win to her tally.

Mike and Adam Azzie’s charge will be taking on the boys this time but she does come off an impressive victory in the Grade 2 Ipi Tombe Challenge.

However, that was over 1600m and the three-year-old daughter of Gimmethegreenlight takes a 400m drop in distance and that could pose a problem.

However, 1200m at his track is raced around the turn and Gimme A Shot will have the advantage of jumping from pole position. She is also the best weighted runner in this line-up.

JP van der Merwe rode her to victory last time and he will be back aboard this time.
