Turffontein Race 4

Betway Maiden Plate (F & M)

Stake: $8,723

POWER OF PEARLS (7) returned last time with a solid second at Vaal over 1200m. Suitably placed to crack the maiden win. RENDEVOUS IN RIO (1) is yet to break through after four starts. Missed the placings last time out over 1400m at Vaal. Juluis Mariba stays on and although yet to win has been in the money on two occasions. Sure to run well. FIRE IN HER SOUL (5) has started twice, missing the frame on debut then doing a better job to finish second last time, beaten 1.5 lengths over 1200m at this track. Leading player again. RACEWAY (3) returns after 11 weeks in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a fifth over 1000m at Greyville All Weather. Nicely placed and can figure in the finish.
