Turffontein Race 1 - 4Racing Welcomes You Maiden Plate (F & M)
DUPONT EMERALD (6) produced a promising debut effort when third on this track. She would have gained from the experience and with the natural improvement that is expected, she should go close to taking this out. GREAT NOTION (2) has good recent form lines to her credit. She was reported to have choked up in running last time, but still managed to run a creditable third. She is the stablemate of the top pick and can take this out. TIPPERARY (3) showed good speed in her last start here in the same race as the top pick, finishing ahead of that runner in second place. If repeating that effort in this field, she can figure in the finish again. EXCEEDINGLY GLAM (1) has finished second in her last three starts. She drops back to 1160m and gets the tongue-tie fitted for the first time. She may be hard to peg back. Each way value.
