PLAY SOCCER 6, 10 AND 13 MAIDEN PLATE 1160m Track: GOOD Clear (Max: 15) |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Cracking tempo with Royale Jacket and Highwayman Harry leading the way. HIGHWAYMAN HARRY (1) was responsible for a solid effort last time out when second at Vaal over 1200m, beaten 1.5 lengths. Bursting to win having placed last four runs. Hard to beat if he brings his A-game. BERRY LANCER (10) is a five-start maiden who could only manage to finish fourth after being prominent at the corner at his latest appearance over 1000m at this track. This looks a nice race so expect him to be right in the finish. OCTOBER REEF (15) is appearing for the first time. By Rafeef and is out of the Alec Laird stable. Watch for a betting push. RISING EAGLE (16) is a two-year-old colt on debut from the stable of Mike Mathew De Kock. By Vercingetorix from Intriguing Lady. Worth watching for a betting push.
