Scottsville Race 1 - Hollywoodbets Scottsville Racecourse Maiden Juvenile Plate
AMC ROY'S FANTASY (7) stepped out on her debut over 1000m at this track four weeks ago and finished fourth, beaten 8 lengths. Capable of sharp improvement. ODE TO THE SEA (6) could only manage 12th two runs back on debut then improved last start but found a couple better over 1000m at Greyville, beaten 5 lengths. Has the ability to find the winners' list. SMART CHOICE (9) was lining up for just the second time last start when fourth over 1000m at Greyville, beaten 5.5 lengths. Has the pace to take a forward position. Strong chance this time. SOHO CELEBRITY (4) is appearing for the first time. By What A Winter and is out of the Yogas Govender stable. Pay to watch for any positive betting moves.

Had two starts to date. At debut, ran last of 12 at this track on December 14 over 1000m, 16 len behind Master Magician carrying 57.5kg at $17. Second-up 3rd of 9 at Greyville on December 26 over 1000m, 5 len behind Kavady carrying 60kg at $34. Well-placed and should prove hard to beat.

At debut, 4th of 12 at this track on December 14 over 1000m, 8 len behind Master Magician with 57.5kg at $17. Gets a pass-mark after that debut and can go on with it.
