WELCOME TO NELSON MANDELA BAY OPEN MAIDEN 2000m Track: AW |

|---|---|---|---|---|

Genuine tempo with Global Scene, Donny's Boy and Celtique taking up forward positions. BATTLE OF BRITAIN (3) returns from a spell and is having her first run for the Gavin Smith stable. She should have no issues with the rise to 2000m. Craig Zackey is booked to ride and if taking to this surface, she can shed her maiden tag in this field. CELTIQUE (9) showed improvement in her last start over this distance on the turf. She stayed on well at the finish that day. She is one of the leading contenders. PRESERVE FOREVER (4) is better than her last start run against male company. Her penultimate run when second over 1900m on this course was encouraging. If finding the form of that outing, she should be finishing in the money. GLOBAL SCENE (2) resumed from a spell last start with a solid third over 1900m at this track. Hard to beat.
