Turffontein Race 4 - Champion Three-Year-Old Filly: Fiery Pegasus Maiden Juvenile Plate
GOLDEN WARRIOR (2) ran a good race when finishing second of seven over this distance on the Vaal Classic course last time. He moved up well before getting outrun late. S'manga Khumalo retains the ride and from pole position, he may find himself in the winner's enclosure. REJUVENATE (8) stayed on well when third over this distance on the Vaal Classic course last time. She is a progressive type and she is one of the leading chances. MASTER SPY (4) was not beaten far on debut over 1160m on this course. He would have gained from the experience and should like the rise to 1600m. With the natural improvement that is expected he should be figuring in the finish. SERGEANT SOQRAT (6) has not shown much promise to date. However, he has scope and in this field, he can improve to finish in the placings.

Form hard to fault. Most recently 3rd in a small field at Vaal on May 15 over 1600m, 3.5 len behind Littlemissmillion carrying 60kg at $9. Before that 4th in a small field at this track on April 19 over 1400m, 5.5 len behind Red Penny carrying 54kg at $67. Nice effort last time so worth following up.
