Turffontein Race 3 - Racing Today Mdn Plate (3-Year-Olds)
TWO TIGERS (2) Came in 5th last run at Vaal. Expected to rebound. Should jump out and bowl along. Kyle Strydom and Robyn Klaasen form a proven partnership. Respect in this company.

Odds of $41.00 and finished 4th last time at Vaal but was a debutant last start. Cannot recommend as a betting proposition.

First up from a break of 9 weeks and tidy run when 3rd first up last preparation at the track. Has shown early pace in races to date. One of the punters top hopes at a very generous price.

Started $13.00 and not up to scratch when 7th last time around here but fitter for debut run. The large claim from D Ramkhalawon helps. Will struggle against these.
