Scottsville Race 2 - Race Coast - Bright Future For SA Horse Racing Apprentice Maiden Plate (F & M)
WINTER BLESSING (5) Looked good when 2nd last run at Greyville. Has plenty of early speed. Has run into the money 4 from 4 attempts this preparation. Strong hope. DANCING PARTY (6) G Van Zyl (Jnr) 3yo by Chimichuri Run on debut. Follow the money. MISS CHARISMA (2) 3yo by Lance having initial appearance for trainer Michael Roberts and has a good draw. Respect the betting. ROYAL CREST (4) Finished 5th last time at this track. Is capable of a resurgence. Displays good tactical speed. Contender in this event.
