Turffontein Race 2 - Racing240 Juvenile Plate (2 Year Old Fillies)
STAGGERWING (2) Came in 2nd last start at this venue and showing consistent performance in races. Likely to be well placed early. Amongst the placegetters at every start this campaign. Strong claims. SOCIAL GRACES (1) Good win by 1L last run at the track and fitter for debut run. K De Melo is a strong choice aboard. Will be giving the leaders a big start. Hard to overlook. MINERVA FAE (5) Nice run when 2nd last start here and having second race start. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Gets a chance to win. NAVIGATRIX (6) Debutant 3yo by Vercingetorix for trainer Paul Matchett and can find a nice position from the draw. Betting is the best guide.

Solid effort when winning by 1L last run around here and was a debutant last start. Gains the services of jockey K De Melo. Expected to settle towards the tail. Holds a major chance.

Odds of $29.00 and was nothing special when 8th last run around here but has a nice advantage with a good draw. Might be ridden for luck. Needs to improve.

Resumes after a spell. Jumped at $101.00 and disappointing display when 7th last run at this track but competing in a lower grade. Suited by the weight drop. Very unlikely.

Paul Matchett trained 3yo debutant by Vercingetorix and has a good draw. Watch the betting.
