BET WITH TOTE OPEN MAIDEN 1200m Track: STANDARD Clouds (Max: 21) |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
A few on-pacers lining up so it should be keenly contested. Weak maiden so hinges on first starter OVATION STAR (8). Three-year-old filly by Rafeef out of Targaryan on debut for the Mike & Mathew De Kock stable, who have a great winning strike-rate with first starters and also with the rider Callan Murray. Should hit the ground running. KALI BWANA (3) looks the main danger. Has been thereabouts, the latest fourth over 1000m at Scottsville. Has a nice weight drop for this and expected to measure up. CHIMES AT MIDNIGHT (4) has been mixing form but best figures stack up and has the inside gate here. Won't get a better chance to break through. TIME IN PARIS (7) could only manage to finish fourth, beaten 3.5 lengths, this course and distance last time. Should be about the money.
