Vaal Race 4 - Sa Derby 4 April Graduation Plate

TRAJANUS (3) is worth forgiving last start which was first run of career out of the placings. Has brilliant early speed and won only try course and distance, Go close on previous rating. AFRICAN PRIDE (2) is another who can bounce back. Not much luck last time and much better than the run suggests. Best form is here and worth another try. UMZINGELI WENYATHI (1) raced in open class over the weekend and was only a couple of lengths away in fourth. This easier and on the quick back-up. Can bounce back. CHAPBOOK (4) was a winner only try this trip three back. Cannot be ruled out despite a lacklustre effort last time.
