Turffontein Race 1 - Super Bock Maiden Plate (F & M)
TUSCAN STAR (2) ran a decent race fresh up here over this trip. She raced from a handy position but found one too good on the day. She would have come on from the run and should strip much fitter. She is a progressive type and in this field, she is the one to beat. LACEWING (1) has finished second in her last three starts. She returns from a spell that may have done her the world of good. With the right run, she can go one better. ASIAH'S TIARA (5) was a tad disappointing in her last start over 1400m. It must be noted that the horse that finished second that day has come out and won since. If finding the form of her debut run, she should be involved at the finish. ONO NO KOMACHI (3) finished fourth in the same race behind the top pick last start. She is still improving and won't be far away.

Was at a huge quote at debut, second last of 8 at this track on November 2 over 1160m, 11 len behind Fastnet Filly with 59kg at $101. Cannot enthuse after the moderate debut effort.

Three-year-old filly (Fire Away - Miss K) making her debut. Expected to measure up.
