GOING:

PLAY SOCCER 6, 10 AND 13 MAIDEN PLATE 1800m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 27)    

Small field but Storm Ahead, Gamer and Mo Ment can ensure a genuine tempo. ICHACHA (4) is a four-start maiden who has been in the money three times, Could only manage fourth last time out over 1400m at Turffontein Standside. Has been in the top-three at all three runs at this course. Has the ability to take this out. YOJIMBO (5) resumed from a spell last start with a sound second over 2000m at this track. Goes up a rung or two but he is well up to the task. SNOW MOON (6) is a nine-start maiden who could only manage to finish fifth at his latest appearance over 2600m at this track. Expected to feature in the finish this time. STORM AHEAD (1) finished third last time out over 1800m at Vaal, making it three career minor placings. Has been in the frame at all two runs over this trip. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. In the mix.
