SAF - FAIRVIEW   10 Oct 2025
 
GOING:

WELCOME TO NELSON MANDELA BAY MAIDEN PLATE 1000m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 22)    

Pace a scorcher, headed by Elusive Black, Shooting Arrow and Bomber Stream, closely followed by Endizayo and Imokelly. ELUSIVE BLACK (5) showed ability in first two starts before going for a year long break. Finally back at the races and has the form to get off the mark if presented on song. SOMBREUIL (8) tends to mix form but ran a better race last time here when third in a three way photo. Will go close if runs to that again. HOLLY'S KISS (10) is the one to watch for a betting move. First-starter by Global View out of Holly's Vision and has the leading rider engaged, who has a top strike-rate for this stable. Very wary. ENDIZAYO (6) is fitter for two runs back and was a distant third latest. Fitter and can sneak into the finish again.
