4RACING WELCOMES YOU JUVENILE PLATE 1200m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 18)    

Alpine Jet, Spiritrix and Victory In Orleans to match motors but there will be other pressure. ANCHORAGE (6) has finished second in all three efforts to date. After an awkward start last time, she set the pace before getting outrun late. It must be noted that the horse that finished third that day has come out and won since. She jumps from pole position and can shed her maiden tag. PRETTY PERSUASIVE (3) made the expected natural improvement when winning her last start over 1400m on the Standside course. Has each-way claims. LET'S GO LOLA (2) won at Scottsville two runs back. Fair effort last time out when third over 1400m at Turffontein Standside. Resumes from a spell and fresh-up rates well as a main danger. SPIRITRIX (4) resumes from a spell. Won on debut last prep over 1000m at Turffontein Standside. Worth considering.
