In a competitive nine-horse race, the promising Get Up produced a favourable result for Pick 6 players
Drawing clear of her opposition over the final 300m, Get Up (11-10) drew clear to beat Lady Harlequin (25-2) by 3 lengths in a time of 65,13 secs – a marginally faster time than the males, a half hour earlier.
A Daughter of What A Winter (Western Winter), Get Up is a half-sister to the well-performed Snaith galloper Malmesbury Missile and is out of the Grade 1 winner Gabor, a daughter of the ill-fated Kingsbairns.
Now a winner of 2 races with a place from 3 starts, Get Up took her earnings to R252 938.
Falling short of the projected R3 million, the big day Pick 6 reached a nett R2 017 893, no doubt as a result of being rescheduled to a working day.
