Turffontein Race 1 - 4Racing Welcomes You Maiden Juvenile Plate (Fillies)
STAGGERWING (10) will find this a little easier than her second on debut two-and-a-half weeks ago, beaten 2 lengths at the end of 1000m at Vaal. Has plenty of upside so she should be in the finish again. GET UP (3) is a daughter of What A Winter from the Group 1 winner Gabor who makes her debut. Profiles strongly and expecting a strong performance. GRANDE HAWAII (4) is a nicely bred two-year-old filly making her first appearance at the races. By Hawwaam from Grande Roche who has produced some fine gallopers, including winners at black type level. ENERGIA (1) was never really a threat on debut last start over 1000m at Vaal, finishing 6 lengths from the winner in fifth. Expected to improve sharply and worth including this line-up.

Was as a despised roughie at debut, second last in a small field at Vaal on January 29 over 1000m, 6 len behind Time Is Precious with 57.5kg at $51. Encouraging signs on debut and is worth following up.

Two-year-old filly by Hawwaam out of Grande Roche having her first start. From a good family of sprinters. Likely to come in for support.

Was well-supported at debut, 2nd of 9 at Vaal on January 29 over 1000m, 2 len behind Secretary Bird with 60kg at $3.80. Led and just run down when well fancied on debut. Shows ability and can open the account this time.
