4Racing Welcomes You Maiden Juvenile Plate

Prize Money: $10,531

HAUTE COUTURE (3) is on debut for the Mike Mathew De Kock stable. Two-year-old colt by Rafeef from Isle De France. Should hit the ground running. Watch for positive market moves. RUBY WHISPER (8) improved last time out, finishing 1.1 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 1000m at Vaal. Looks well placed so expect another big run. KWAITO (4) is on debut for the J A Janse Van Vuuren stable. Two-year-old gelding by Elusive Fort from Keara. Worth including if well in commission. PROWLER (5) is a two-year-old colt on debut from the stable of Roy Magner. By New Predator from Vasilisa. Worth watching for a betting push.

Racing well recently. At the latest run 2nd of 7 at Vaal on April 23 over 1000m, 1.1 len behind Western Mirage with 60kg at $3. The race before that 4th of 8 at this track on April 12 over 1160m, 4 len behind Drachenfutter with 57kg at $1.60. Overdue for a win. Another bold run is expected.
