Turffontein Race 1 - 4racing Welcomes You Mdn Juvenile Plate
RHYTHMIC QUEEN (8) produced a fair effort on debut last time out when 5.5 lengths from the winner in seventh at this track over 1160m. Has upside and deserves another chance. SKITT SMILING (7) was at long odds on debut last time out and finished fourth, beaten 3 lengths, over 1200m at Vaal. Likely improver who should go well. HARTREE (3) wasn't far away on debut last start over 1400m at this track, finishing sixth and beaten 5 lengths. Improver with a solid top-three chance. ONE STATE (6) is back from a spell of three-and-a-half months. Closed last prep with a fourth, beaten 5.5 lengths, over 1400m at this track. Profiles to run well.
