SAF - TURFFONTEIN INSIDE   11 Oct 2025
 
GOING: G

TRANSVAAL INTERCONSTITUTIONAL MASONIC CHARITIES MAIDEN PLATE 1450m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 27)    

Genuine tempo anticipated with good speed engaged. WINDS OF GRACE (1) is an eight start maiden with five majors who was a little disappointing when fourth last time at Vaal. Drops a little in weight, drawn the inside and has placed both tries course and distance. Goes close. STONE OF SCONE (4) resumed from a break here over 1200m and ran well into third. Fitter and extra trip a plus. Take catching. TOP SHELF TEDDY (9) had just one run last time in when placed on the main track this trip. Has upside and leading rider goes aboard. SPIRANAC (8) is a three-year-old filly on debut from the stable of C Dawson. By Erik The Red from American Princess. Worth watching for a betting push. DELAWARE RIVER (7) ran fourth fresh over 1200m at Vaal, not far from the winner. Fitter and better draw. Looks an improver.
