Turffontein Tips on March 15th - Best Bets and Predictions

ONE FINE WINTER produced an eye-catching debut effort over 1000m in the Listed TAB Storm Bird Stakes. She ran on strongly at the finish that day and will love the extra 100m on offer. The daughter of What A Winter would have gained from the experience and with the natural improvement that is expected, she should take a power of beating. Six of the eight runners in this contest are unraced and the betting market will be the best guide with regards to their chances.

TINA LOVELACE should have finished closer to the winner on debut in the Listed TAB Storm Bird Stakes. She took an awkward stride at the 100m mark. The daughter of Danon Platina would have gained from the experience. She takes on Maiden Company and unless one of the first timers is a superstar, she should be the one to beat.

RADICCHIO finished 2 lengths behind PURPLE PITCHER last time. He is 7kgs better off at the weights today and that should be enough for the tables to be turned. If keeping on a straight line, he can notch up his ninth-career victory.

POMODORO’S JET has won his last two starts with ease. He set the pace in the Listed Wolf Power 1600, found another kick and won with a ton in hand. It must be noted that the form of that race has been franked. The cheekpieces have done the trick and he should be too good for this field.

ELEGANT ICE stayed on when sixth over 1000m on this course last time. She has won once, finished second twice and third once from as many starts over this C&D. Ryan Munger is booked to ride and she can return to winning ways.
