RACING TODAY MAIDEN PLATE 1200m Track: STANDARD |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Keen speed battle, with Rip Wheeler, Palme D'or and Laudium prominent. TURBULENT (1) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 1000m at Fairview All Weather. Looks well placed this line-up so expect another big run. RUSH GREEN (17) is a two-year-old colt by Gimmethegreenlight out of Sacha on debut for the Alan Greeff stable. Looks a definite contender, particularly if the money comes. EUGENIUS (5) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 3 lengths when fourth in a 1200m contest at Kenilworth a month ago. Faces an easier assignment so he can find the winners' list. HERE COMES JOHNNY (4) is a colt back from a break and has placed fresh. Placed 4/4 here and 2/2 course and distance. Among the leading players.
