WWW.SOCCER6.CO.ZA OPEN MAIDEN 1600m

Track: AW      

Abundant early pace from the speedy trio of Cicadidae, Princess Vritti and Princess Virginie. PRINCESS VIRGINIE (3) showed good improvement over 1200m on this course last start when finishing third of 13. She raced from a handy position and rallied late. If seeing out the extra distance on offer she should prove hard to beat. CICADIDAE (1) finished fifth of 12 here last start when well supported From her good draw of three should be figuring in the finish. PRINCESS VRITTI (2) resumes from a spell and is having her first start from a new stable. Rates highly in this line-up so expecting her to be prominent. ELUSIVE MATA (4) could only manage to finish seventh at her latest appearance over 1600m at Fairview. This looks a nice race so expecting her to finish closer. Well worth an each-way ticket.
