CAPE TURF CLUB MAIDEN PLATE 1000m Track: GOOD Clouds (Max: 18) |

Good early tempo with several going forward, primarily Maneki Neko, Across The Bow and Un Bel Di. BAGATELLE FLASH (6) was running on well when finishing second in his last start over this course and distance. Meets the right field and he has strong winning claims. UN BEL DI (5) is better than his last start run would suggest as he was reported to be fatigued. He returns from a spell during which time he was gelded. Fresh-up should go a bold race. MANEKI NEKO (2) challenged strongly in his last start, but found one too good on the day. Aldo Domeyer retains the ride and he may be rewarded for consistency. MIND MAP (7) is a two-year-old colt on debut. From an elite family that includes a G1 victor, being by Master Of My Fate from All In The Mind.
