Vaal Race 2 - Racing Today Maiden Juvenile Plate (Fillies)
STORM AVALANCHE (7) Sean Tarry trained 3yo by Rafeef having first race appearance. K De Melo rates highly steering. Watch the market. PISTA RESISTANCE (4) D Gray St John 3yo by Chimichuri Run on debut. Market as guide. PLEASURE SEEKING (6) Initial appearance 3yo by Danon Platina for Alson Ndzilana and drawn beautifully. Watch for a sign in the market. ALICE B TOKLAS (1) Competitive effort when 3rd last start around here and was on debut last time. Prefers to settle towards the rear. This field suits.

Debutant 3yo by Rafeef for trainer Sean Tarry. Added confidence with K De Melo doing the steering. Betting is the best guide.

First up. Started at $41.00 and moderate showing when 8th last start here but fitter for debut run. Has early speed and positions nicely. Needs a mighty effort to win this.
