Turffontein Race 1 - Betway Mdn Plate
RAZZPATH REBEL (6) has done enough in two starts at this venue to be the one to beat, placing both times and improving from a big-odds debut second to a third in 3yo MPLTE company when beaten a length and a half. The move to 1450m is the unknown, but his consistency and race fitness give him the clearest profile. LE CONCIERGE (1) is the obvious danger after finishing second at Scottsville, beaten just over a length, and his previous fourth at Greyville Aw keeps the form line solid. LUCKY AWESOME (2) resumes after a four-month break with stronger market respect than his record suggests, while POGINI GREINE (4) returns off a better final run before the spell when fourth at this track at big odds.

Went close at Scottsville last start, finishing second in a MPLTE and beaten just over a length after being near the top of betting but easing. His prior fourth at Greyville Aw, beaten two and a half lengths by Nautical Fire, gives him another sound recent reference. He is race fit and has placed at this distance, though one placing from four tries keeps the 1450m as a small query. A winning breakthrough is well within reach.

Returns from a four-month break after ending his last campaign with a sixth in 2yo MPLTE company at Vaal, beaten just under four lengths when well-supported near the top of betting. He had earlier run fourth at Turffontein Standside, beaten just under three lengths, so there is some depth to the form despite being unplaced from three starts. Fresh, he shapes as a genuine place chance rather than a clear top pick.

Returns from a five-week let-up after finishing sixth at Vaal, beaten five and a half lengths by Mirum at generous odds. The better guide is his previous third behind Special Envoy, although that came when unwanted in the market at 51.0. He has placed once at around this distance and should be fit fourth-up, but he has to rebound from a plain latest run to trouble the main hopes.

Returns from a three-month break after a fourth at this track in 2yo MPLTE company, beaten four and a half lengths at big odds. That was a clear improvement on his previous Vaal seventh, where he was beaten over 12 lengths by Brave Waam. He is still unplaced from four starts and has no placing from one attempt around this distance, but that latest run gives him enough to be considered for the minors.

Makes his debut for the Mike & Mathew De Kock stable, which has a solid record with first starters from the figures supplied. There is some family substance, with half-siblings Weather Bomb, Weather Wizard and Periodic Table all winners, and Weather Wizard having won over 2400m. With no race form to measure and a wide barrier, he is best watched unless the market gives a stronger lead.

Has placed at both starts at this venue and looks ready to convert. He was third in 3yo MPLTE company last start, beaten a length and a half by Erikson, after a debut second behind Reckless Abandon at big odds. The step to 1450m is new, but he is third-up, race fit and draws to hold a handy position. With the strongest recent profile in the field, he sets the standard.

Returns from a three-month break after finishing fifth in FM MPLTE grade at Turffontein Standside, beaten just over five lengths by Flying World at generous odds. Her prior fourth at this track was more encouraging, beaten just under two lengths at long odds. She remains unplaced from three starts and has missed a placing at this distance range, so she requires improvement to be more than a rough each-way hope.
