Scottsville Race 3 - Race Coast Maiden Plate (F & M)
ACT OF GRACE (1) is better than her last start, as she was reported to be distressed and coughing post-race. It must be noted that the form of that outing has since been franked. She finished second in her previous two efforts over this distance. She jumps from pole position, and she may be the one to beat. MRS STORMIATRIX (7) showed massive improvement in her last start here over this trip. The blinkers seem to have done the trick. If confirming her recent effort, she should throw out a big challenge to the top choice. TIPPERARY (6) ran a decent race when third over this distance at the Vaal last time. She finished third in her only attempt here over this journey. If all went well with her travels, she should finish in the placings. COOL WIND (10) showed improvement when fifth over 1600m on this course last time. She raced from a handy position and fought on at the finish. She is a progressive type, and with luck in running, she may have more to come.
