Leg 1 of the Wilgerbosdrift SA Triple Tiara. Equus Champion 2yo filly GOLDEN PALM sets the standard and is weighted to win. However, she has a length to find on LOWVELD LILY on the form of their meeting in the Cape Fillies Guineas. HAZY DAZY won a course-and-distance Grade 3 last time out and that form was franked by runner-up CHARGE IT subsequently winning a Listed race over 1800m. Both are genuine Triple Tiara candidates as they are bred to improve over further. Last-start winners WARM RECEPTION and LITTLEMISSMILLION fit a similar profile so shouldn't be underestimated either.
