Vaal Race 1 - Betway Welcomes You Maiden Plate
TIGER STORM (4) never fired last start when reported to be not striding out. His penultimate run when second over this course and distance under Tshepiso Matsoele catches the eye. He meets the right field and should find himself in the winner's enclosure. REMAINS OF THE DAY (1) was in the money last start when second at Turffontein Inside over 1200m after having placed in his two previous starts. Rates well as an each-way chance. PURSUIT OF FAME (5) ran a fair race over 1200m last time. He showed pace and stayed on well at the finish. Anathi Feni takes the ride and he can finish in the money. SANTIAGO'S PRIDE (7) is on debut. By Futura and hails from the Weiho Marwing stable. Worth watching for a betting push.

Going well. Most recently 2nd in a small field at Turffontein Inside on September 28 over 1200m, 2 len behind Hair Trigger carrying 57.5kg at $9.50. Before that 3rd of 8 at this track on September 5 over 1000m, 8 len behind Johnny Appleseed carrying 60kg at $3.30. Nice effort last time. Can go on with the job now.

Last start 4th of 10 at this track on September 26 over 1000m, 2.25 len behind Pacific with 60kg at $126. The run before that ran last of 12 at this track on September 12 over 1200m, 15 len behind His Lordship carrying 60kg at $101. Racing okay but look elsewhere.

Three-year-old gelding (Futura - Azure Sky) making his debut. Profiles nicely for this.
