GOING: S(6)

BRISTOL PAINTS PAMBULA SUPER MAIDEN HANDICAP 1212m

Track: Soft 7   Rain (Max: 14)   Rail: +4m entire + 7m 650m-350m, Cutaway Applies.  

In the absence of noted leaders, Butterfly Style and Playful Puzzle may be the ones to set a moderate tempo. SHE'S IN OVERDRIVE (3) made a promising debut when a closing second at this track. Shapes as though the extra ground will be in her favour and can go one better. INCHYRA (2) improved sharply on debut effort to run into a place in a similar race three weeks ago. If she holds that form she's right in this. LONDON STAR (11) went back and was never in it at Kembla but realistic chance on previous placings at this track and distance. Include. BUTTERFLY STYLE (4) and RUBILACE (9) are open to improvement. SUGGESTED PLAY: She's In Overdrive to win.

On debut. Three-year-old gelding by Kobayashi out of Power Fox. At the most recent trial finished fifth on May 12 at Kembla Grange over 800m. Just the one trial so could improve on it and if any support he's worth some thought.

Drifter in betting first-up so a likely improver.

Three-year-old filly (D'argento - Midnight Fantasy) will no doubt benefit from the three trials leading in today's debut. Fourth at Rosehill in a 1030m trial on May 29. Betting a good guide.
