WELCOME TO NELSON MANDELA BAY MAIDEN PLATE 1200m Track: STANDARD |

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

Here Comes Johnny and O Space O to take up the running at a genuine tempo. AMANATTO (9) made it five minor placings in a row last start when second over 1400m at this track. Well placed this line-up and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. O SPACE O (2) missed the placings when resuming at Greyville All Weather two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1200m at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects. ORIGINATOR (1) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 2.75 lengths when fifth over 1400m at Fairview two months ago after being prominent at the corner. Nicely placed to get the prize. HERE COMES JOHNNY (7) ran a better race last time and can sneak a place.
