Mauritius Race 2 - 5f Stakes
BOMBARDIER BOY (5) is fresh from a spell of eight months and did hit the frame when last resuming at Scottsville over 1000m. Makes his way over to Mauritius now. Nicely placed and expected to go well in his first run in new surroundings. UNSUNG HERO (2) was leading on the turn and fought on to finish second over 990m at this track at his latest appearance. Has a strong record here at this journey. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Among the leading chances. HOLDS THE KEY (7) resumes from a spell of 14 months. Has filled a minor placing at both first-up runs. Opened last prep with a third over 400m at Greyville. Definite top-three chance. MYSTERY CACHE (1) hit the frame when resuming two runs back at this track but couldn't back it up last start when ninth, beaten 10 lengths, over 1450m at this track. Finds a nice race and can make amends.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. First-up 3rd in a small field at this track on April 25 over 990m, 1.4 len behind Mind Map with 61.00kg at $3.10. Second run from a spell ran second last of 10 at this track on May 16 over 1450m, 10 len behind High Key carrying 61.5kg at $10.50. Better than that recent moderate performance suggests.

Resuming after a eight months break. Finished off last campaign second of 8 at Greyville October 19 over 1000m, 0.5 len behind Mfethu with 59kg at $3.80. On debut second in a small field at Scottsville September 14 over 1000m, 1.2 len behind Cowboy Country carrying 60kg at $3.50. Could prove too smart for these.
