Turffontein Race 2

Tab Telebet 011 074 0300 Maiden Plate

Prize Money: $9,688

SUTTER'S MILL (6) ran well on debut last start to finish third over 1400m at Turffontein Standside in a tougher race. Promising type with improvement to come so he should be in the finish again. PROPER (4) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m at Turffontein Standside, beaten 4 lengths. Fitter so expect a better run this time. EMERALD COUNTESS (5) has been kept fresh for this since a disappointing seventh last start over 1450m at this track eight weeks ago. Should camp just off the leaders. Sure to be competitive. ROCK MY BOAT (1) has been in the money four times including last start on April 9 when second over 1600m at this track. Has a sound record here with two top-three finishes from four starts. In the mix.

Last start 2nd in a small field at this track on April 9 over 1600m, 5.5 len behind Tracksuit Dave with 60kg at $41. The start before that of 7 at Turffontein Standside on April 4 over 1400m, 10 len behind One Of Those Days with 60kg at $101. Genuine hope on best form.
