FOR HOSPITALITY BOOKINGS CALL 011 681 1796 MAIDEN PLATE 1600m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 13)    

Anticipating a solid tempo over the mile. THE REASON (1) is a six-start maiden who has been in the money four times, the latest when second over 1450m at Vaal. Should camp just off the leaders. First try at the mile but small field suits and will go close. BEAUTIFUL ONE (2) is a nine-start maiden who finished tenth at her most recent appearance over 1600m at Kenilworth. Close-up second in a high rating race this trip two back. Deserves another chance. UMAMI (4) got a long way back when 5.5 lengths from the winner in fifth over 2000m at Vaal last start, a less impressive effort than her fourth at this track the run before. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. IN BETWEEN (3) missed the placings two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 8 lengths away in sixth over 2000m at Vaal. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
