RACE COAST - BRIGHT FUTURE FOR SA HORSE RACING MAIDEN PLATE 1000m Track: SOFT Clear (Max: 31) |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Good early pressure anticipated with a large number of first starters. STRONGER TOGETHER (5) was unwanted in betting on debut last start but ran a strong race, winding up strongly for third and beaten 1.2 lengths over 1000m at this track. Leading player with plenty of improvement in store. AMBER ALERT (7) returned from a spell two-and-a-half weeks ago when he was beaten 6 lengths into fourth over 1200m at Greyville All Weather. Fitter this time. Hard to beat in this suitable race. TIGER CODY (1) is on debut for the Kumaran Naidoo stable. Two-year-old gelding by Buffalo Bill Cody from It's Complicated. Keep a close eye out for a positive market move. KID FROM THE SOUTH (3) is a two-year-old gelding on debut from the stable of Stuart Ferrie. By Real Gone Kid from Southern Charm. Watch the market closely.
