GOING:

WELCOME TO NELSON MANDELA BAY OPEN MAIDEN 1400m

Track: STANDARD      

Plenty of pace from Bandmaster, Jet Querari and Salagadoola vying for the lead, with a few others keeping them honest. JET QUERARI (1) is better than his last start rum on the Turffontein Inside course as he was reported to be not striding out. His form prior to that outing was decent. He is having his first run for Gavin Smith and if seeing out the extra distance on offer, he may find himself in the winner's enclosure. BANDMASTER (2) has decent recent form lines. He steps back up to 1400m and the blinkers have been removed. With a bit of luck in the running he should be right there at the finish. CLIFFIE CLAVIN (4) has drawn pole position and if not too far out of his ground turning for home, he should be competitive. AM STILL WINNING (7) stayed on well when third over 1300m on this course last time. The booking of Richard Fourie is a big plus and she should prove hard to roll.
