Fairview Race 1 - Welcome To Nelson Mandela Bay Mdn Juvenile Plate
RED BIRCH (2) recorded another minor placing last time out, finishing 8 lengths away in third over 1400m at this track when she was prominent throughout. Freshened and back in trip. Placed all three starts including 2/2 here. Should prove hard to beat. RIVER VIEW (3) resumes after running in a small field on debut missing the frame by 5.5 lengths at this track over 1000m. Has upside and rates a strong winning chance. TP THUNDERCHILD (6) has been in the money two times including last start on June 24 when second over 1300m at this track. Has a solid record at this track, finishing in the top-three two times. Will be thereabouts. SILVER VISION (5) is on debut. By Visionaire and is out of the Alan Greeff stable. Pay to watch for any positive betting moves.

Second-up. First-up after three months ran second last in a small field at this track on June 19 over 1000m, 14 len behind Carnival with 60kg at $151. Previously second-up ran second last of 9 at Fairview on February 27 over 1200m, on a slow track; 27 len behind Just Carter with 56kg at $126. Must improve significantly.

Resuming after a break; only one run when ran second last in a small field at this track on May 15 over 1000m, 5.5 len behind Say A Prayer with 57.5kg at $8. Fair debut here before a spell. Has upside and expected to feature.

Most recently 6th of 10 at this track on July 3 over 1200m, 5 len behind Royal Dawn with 54.5kg at $9. The run before that 4th of 7 at this track on June 26 over 1400m, 3 len behind Fyfield Legend carrying 54.6kg at $34. Doesn't profile as a likely winner.
