Fairview Race 1 - Welcome To Nelson Mandela Bay Open Mdn (F & M)
TRICKLE CHARGE (6) earns top billing after running second in MPLTE company at this track last start, beaten just over a length by Scented Path at generous odds. That followed a sound fifth at Fairview when only two and a half lengths away, and she now looks well placed third-up with the class drop and strong stable-rider profile in her corner. WEEKEND IN ASPEN (8) is the main danger on consistency, having placed in all three career starts and again running second in MPLTE grade last time while holding a firm place near the top of betting. BAI YULU (1) is reliable, with back-to-back seconds at this venue and two placings from two tries around 1600m, though 61kg makes her less straightforward as a win option. MATTER OF TRUST (4) has been below her best at the last two, but she returns fresh, has drawn barrier one and owns enough 1600m placing form to stay in the minor-money conversation.

Has put together two straight seconds at this venue, most recently beaten just under a length by Lady Limoncello after starting favourite despite easing in the market. The start prior she was second to Kim Kay in FM MPLTE grade and she has two placings from two previous tries around 1600m. The 61kg is the leveller, but her consistency makes her a genuine place player.

Was safely held in a small field over 2000m at this track last start, finishing fifth and beaten seven and a half lengths behind Camden Square after easing near the top of an open market. Her prior second to Redlight Lane was sound enough and she gets weight relief, but the return to 1600m still leaves her with a fair bit to turn around.

Makes her race debut without public race form to assess, so the market may be the best guide. Sharon B Kotzen's recent debut figures are modest, with no wins and three placings from 18 starters, while the trainer-sire combination has produced one win from 28 starts. She carries 59kg first time out and has to prove herself under race pressure.

Returns from a two-month freshening after finishing sixth over 2000m at Fairview, beaten five and a half lengths by Dead Poets Society at generous odds. She had also been well held at this track the run prior when big odds. The draw in barrier one helps and she has placed at around 1600m before, but recent form points more to a place chance than a winning push.

Finished last at this track over 1200m last start when unwanted in the market, and her prior run at Fairview was a second-last placing beaten just over nine lengths in FM MPLTE grade. Reaching third-up is a small positive, but she is unplaced from three attempts around 1600m and must produce a far sharper effort to trouble these.

Put the writing on the wall at this track last start, running second in MPLTE grade and beaten just over a length by Scented Path at generous odds. Her Fairview fifth two runs back was also sound, finishing two and a half lengths from Fonte, so the current campaign has built well. Third-up, dropping in class and paired with a leading jockey-trainer combination, she brings the clearest winning profile.

Backs up quickly after finishing third at this track over 1400m last week, beaten just over two lengths by Caughtubysurprise at generous odds. That was a better result than her earlier sixth behind Masterofthebaroque, but she remains a 14-start maiden with only two placings. The quick return suits, although the wide draw leaves her in the each-way fringe rather than higher.

Has not missed a place in three starts and again ran well when second in MPLTE grade at this track last start, beaten just under two lengths by Seattle Glow while near the top of betting. Her previous third behind Grey Eagle adds to the consistency, and she has placed in all three runs at this venue. With weight relief and a class drop, she looks a serious winning threat.

Was fifth at this track over 1400m last start, beaten five and a half lengths by Lady Limoncello after starting at big odds, and the run prior she finished last in a small field behind Alleyah's Rocket. The 2.5kg apprentice claim is useful and she has placed twice from three rides with this jockey, but 1600m is new ground and her 15-start maiden record keeps her to a place assessment.
