Fairview Race 1 - Welcome To Nelson Mandela Bay Maiden Plate
TURBULENT (1) is resuming from a spell of ten weeks and having his first run for the Dean Smith yard. Was in the placings when first-up from a spell last campaign at Kenilworth over 1200m. Leading contender. BUGLE (5) has been racing in great heart with two top-three finishes on end, the latest a second over 1600m at Fairview when he was handy all the way. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. AETHELWULF (4) is a 16-start maiden who finished seventh after being in contention on the corner at his most recent outing over 2000m at this track. Finds the right race and is worth consideration. MONKEY'S WEDDING (2) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1160m at Turffontein Standside, beaten 30 lengths into eighth. No surprise to see him in contention.
