RACING TODAY MAIDEN PLATE 1400m Track: STANDARD |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Plenty of pace established by Palme D'or, The Judge and Turbulent, with Good Shine close at hand. REDLIGHT LANE (9) is a nine-start maiden who finished sixth at her most recent outing over 1400m at Kenilworth. This easier and first try all weather. Go close. MASTEROFTHEBAROQUE (3) is back after a break of ten weeks. At the last run before the layoff he finished fourth over 1600m at Turffontein Inside. Good chance to break through. TURBULENT (1) was in the money two starts back at Fairview All Weather then missed the frame but was not too far away last time over 1200m at Fairview All Weather. Has a high cruising speed. Shapes well and is among the main hopes. HALF MOON ISLAND (2) is back after a break of 11 months. At the last run before the layoff he finished fourth over 1600m at this track. Solid top-three hope.
