Scottsville Race 1 - Live It. Love It. Own It. Www.racecoast.co.za Maiden Juvenile Plate (Fillies)
ANUSHKA (6) ran well on debut last start to finish third over 1100m at this track in a tougher race. Has plenty of upside so she should be in the finish again. JAPURA (9) was well supported last time over 1000m at this track but could only manage second after being prominent at the corner. Long overdue and among the leading chances. CHERRYBLOSSOMPINK (7) is a first-starter by Vercingetorix from Champery who has been a wonderful producer including a winner at G1 level. MEKONG (3) made an encouraging debut last time out, finishing 2.25 lengths from the winner in third over 1000m at this track. Improver worth including.

Was at very long odds at debut, 3rd of 16 at this track on February 18 over 1100m, 1.5 len behind Lady Godiva carrying 60kg at $67. Improver who can get off the mark this time.
