Turffontein Race 3 - Tab SA Nursery (Grade 2)
THE BRONX BULL (6) Brave effort to win narrowly by 1/2L last run at Vaal but challenged by more formidable competitors. Should race on the speed. Suited. GIMME A VODKA (2) Placed 2nd last time around here and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Should muster plenty of early speed. Has not missed the money this preparation in 3 attempts. Suitably placed in this race. BETTER NEVER ENDS (1) On a short back up. Ran 4th last run at Greyville. Looking for an improved run. Might be ridden for luck. Can go on with it. KUDIKARAN (4) Nice run when 3rd last time at this venue and fitter for debut run. Has early speed and positions nicely. Has drawn to do little work. Not out of this.

Backing up quickly. At $3.50 finished 4th last run at Greyville. Looking for an improved run. Likely to get back. Stamps its reason for consideration.

Looked good when 2nd last time at this track and promising career start. Should come to hand quickly. Has run into the placings all attempts this campaign. Will show up at the business end.

Looked good when 3rd last time at this track and was on debut last time. Displays good tactical speed. Has the ideal draw. One for the value hunters.

Brave effort to win narrowly last run at Vaal but competing at a higher grade. Won't be far away during the run. No surprise to see solid support in the betting.
