GOING:

NEXT TURFFONTEIN RACEMEETING THURSDAY 19 MARCH FM 78 HANDICAP 1160m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 24)    

Magic Carpet Ride has good gate speed and can overcome the wide alley to lead. PLAY WITH THE WIND (3) has two wins and one placing from four runs this preparation. Found one better last start at Turffontein Inside over 1450m. Won only try course and distance. Go close. CAPTAIN SELVIE (1) did a great job to score by a head over today's course and distance last start to maintain her good form of late. Nicely placed to keep the ball rolling. MISS NOVAX (2) was in contention on the corner and finished second last time over 1200m at Vaal, beaten a nose. Nicely placed to play a major role. THERE SHE GOES (4) is coming off a last-start fourth, beaten 2 lengths, over 1200m at Vaal. Has a solid record here including three wins and four minor placings from 14 outings. This sets up nicely.
