GOING:

WILGERBOSDRIFT STUD MAIDEN PLATE 1600m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 21)    

They look to roll along early with Rissiepit and Homing Pigeon leading the charge. HOMING PIGEON (1) is close to a win after a string of recent placings, the latest when third over 1800m at Durbanville. Looks ready to win. ONE SUMMER (2) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 1600m at this track after being prominent from the outset. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. MISSOURI FLAME (3) progressed nicely last time out to finish just a nose from the winner in second over 1900m at Fairview All Weather. Looks well placed so expect another big run. OH MANDY (4) is yet to break through in 22 runs but wasn't far away last time when second over 1600m at this track on February 6. Has a decent record at this trip with nine minor placings from 12 tries and is one of the better hopes.
