SAF - TURFFONTEIN STANDSIDE   30 Dec 2025
 
GOING:

TAB 4RACING APP MAIDEN PLATE 1400m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 24)    

Plenty of pace with Trombolines and Red Sunrise up front, pressured by Le Turbo and Jabberwocky. TROMBOLINES (8) was well fancied on debut last start and was not far off the mark, finishing second and beaten half a length over 1160m at this track. Open to improvement and looks a serious contender. REECE'S WISH (10) was well fancied last start over 1700m at Vaal when second, beaten 2 lengths. Sat close to the pace and fought on well. Freshened for this and looks a great chance to atone. STAY TUNED (3) raced at Turffontein Standside a few days ago and was safely held. On the quick back-up and in the mix on best figures if lining up again. RED SUNRISE (4) has been racing in good style including a last start third over 1500m at Vaal, beaten 2.5 lengths. Overdue for a win and is among the winning hopes on best form.
