Vaal Race 9 - Next Vaal Racemeeting Thursday 2 July Mr 80 Hcp

CATFISH (4) Did a good job when winning by 2 1/4L last time at the track. Has run into the money on multiple occasions this preparation. Appears as a winning threat. LOVABLE (3) Amongst the placegetters when 2nd last start at Turffontein but goes up in weight. Will be giving the leaders a big start. Expect to go close. EL ZANI (2) First up after 12 weeks and ran well when 2nd first up last preparation at this venue. Has the speed to overcome the wide draw. Promising career start. Must be considered. BLINDFIRE (7) Finished 4th last run at Turffontein. Should muster plenty of early speed. Capable of better.

Competitive effort when 2nd last run at Turffontein. In the placings regularly this preparation. Prefers to settle towards the tail. Slight prospect.

Started $51.00 and average performance when 9th last time at the track but suited by the weight drop. Might have to make up considerable ground. Struggle to recommend.
