GOING: Y

WELCOME TO NELSON MANDELA BAY MAIDEN PLATE 1000m

Track: SOFT   Clouds (Max: 18)    

Genuine tempo with the speedy Eternal Spirit leading the way. PRINCESS CHANTE (7) made an encouraging debut last time out, finishing 4.5 lengths from the winner in third over 1000m at Fairview All Weather. Got a long way back but found the line strongly. Leading player with plenty of improvement in store. ETERNAL SPIRIT (8) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 6 lengths when fourth in a 1400m contest at Fairview All Weather six weeks ago after being in the firing line on the turn. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. STORM BALLET (1) is returning from a spell of four months. Finished sixth at Turffontein Standside over 1600m at the first run last prep. Now with a new trainer D A Mckenzie. Can make her presence felt. CAMBIASO (9) is a three-year-old filly facing the starter for the first time. From a very strong family, being by The United States from the former top race mare Enchanted Kingdom.
