GOING: G

WELCOME TO NELSON MANDELA BAY MAIDEN JUVENILE PLATE 1200m

Track: AW   Rain (Max: 18)    

Many of these step out for the first time so a frantic pace is likely early on over this sharp journey. CONFETTI (8) produced a promising debut effort over 1000m on the polytrack. She lost two lengths leaving the start but stayed on well to finish second. She would have gained from the experience and she should like the rise to 1200m. With the natural improvement that is expected, she should give the males a decent run for their money. COOL CAT (1) showed some improvement in his last start over 1400m on the polytrack when finishing third of eight. Progressing well and a win is on the cards. COWBOYS DON'T CRY (2) showed signs of needing his debut effort over 1000m on this course. Resumes from spell and should like the rise to 1200m and if not in need of this outing, he should finish in the placings. CAPE FLOWER (7) missed on debut at this track and was safely held, finishing 6 lengths from the winner when sent out at long odds. Will strip fitter and has place claims.
