4RACING WELCOMES YOU WORK RIDERS MAIDEN PLATE 1200m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 26)    

Fast pace assured with Pretty Precious, Black Hole Sun and Dragon Dragon leading the charge. PRETTY PRECIOUS (1) ran a fair race when finishing third of eight when well supported last start when resuming from a spell. She would have come on from the run and should strip much fitter. Rates well as a leading chance. INTRO (7) produced a strong finish when second of seven over this distance on the Turffontein Inside course last time. If keeping on a straight line she should be fighting out the finish. ABBEY'S VIEW (9) is an unraced daughter of Global View from the Tony Peter stable with Phelisile Mongqawa booked to ride. The betting market will be the best guide with regards to her chances. TOUCH OF HEAVEN (11) looked in need of her debut run over 1000m here last start when finishing sixth of 13 when sent out at long odds. She would have come on from the run and with the natural improvement that is expected can finish in the placings.

Jumped at very long odds at debut, 6th of 13 at this track on October 31 over 1000m, 5.5 len behind Lady Of Memphis carrying 59kg at $51. Likely to take a lot from that run and is worth following up.
