Scavs/SA Race 3

[Pedigree Ann]

If it's any consolation, the off-the-hill turf course at SA has proven in the past to be more friendly to miler-types than pure-sprint types in the those 6.5f dashes. Are you familiar with the course? They start up on the hillside, 'way across the backstretch parking lot; after a bit of straight, they make a right-hand bend, then cut across to the opposite rail to make a long, sweeping left-hand turn. It is downhill until the horses get to the place where they cross the main track with about 1 furlong to run on another straight. It's not clear why miler-types do so well on it, they just do.
