Turffontein Race 1 - 4Racing Welcomes You Maiden Juvenile Plate
BINGO (1) ran a decent race on debut over 800m on this course last start. He would have gained from the experience and it is encouraging that Gavin Lerena has been booked to ride. Unless one of the first timers have any ability, he should find himself in the winner's enclosure. READ ALL ABOUT IT (5) is an unraced son of Hawwaam from the Mike de Kock stable with Muzi Yeni in the saddle. He is related to multiple winners and if not too green in the running should give a good account of himself. The betting market will be the best guide with regards to his winning chances. POWER OF PEARLS (7) is a daughter of Pathfork from the Candice Dawson stable on her debut with Craig Zackey in the saddle. She is related to six-time winner Flower Of Saigon. If not in need of the run should give a good account of herself. VEGAS GIRL (8) is the stablemate of the top selection. Ryan Munger is booked to ride and jumping from the inside gate can place.

Two-year-old filly (Horizon - Girl's Best Friend) making her debut. Has the right credentials to run a forward race.
