Scottsville Race 1 - Bet With Colossus Exclusive On Www.tote.co.za Maiden Juvenile Plate
BISON WARRIOR (2) stepped out on his debut over 1000m at this track six-and-a-half weeks ago and finished fifth, beaten 7 lengths. Was very green and sure to be fitter and much improved. Expected to be very competitive. BETTER NEVER ENDS (12) finished sixth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1200m at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects. MASTERCRAFTER (4) is a two-year-old colt by leading Master Of My Fate who was purchased for ZAR R 400,000 (Cape Thoroughbred Sales 2025 MARCH YEARLING SALE - DAY 1). Sean Veale will give it every hope. Keep safe in this field, market is the guide. VIKING LEADER (9) is a nicely bred two-year-old gelding lining up for the first time. By Erik The Red from Guiding Light who has produced plenty of winners.

Was at long odds at debut, 5th of 8 at this track on January 25 over 1000m, 7 len behind Master Magician carrying 60kg at $26. Will have benefited from that outing and is likely to measure up.
