Vaal Race 2 - Youcanbetonus! Work Riders Mdn Plate
ASTROPHILE (9) Competed in a tight contest last run around here and fitter for debut run. Displays good tactical speed. Phenisile Mongqawa and Tony Peter make an imposing pair. Winning claims. TIGER'S CAPTAIN (3) Came in 9th last run at Turffontein. Happy to forgive that run but down in distance. No surprise to see a forward showing and one of the main hopes in this race. ECHOES OF WAR (1) Finished 5th last run at Turffontein. Looking past the last run but dropping in distance. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. No shock to see a win. TIME TO FIRE (8) Average performance when 6th last run at the track but has drawn the rails. Definite claims.

Was $4.33 and finished 5th last run at Turffontein. Looking past the last run but will be facing a significant drop in distance. Should be going forward early. Will go close.

Jumped at $7.50 and ran 9th last run at Turffontein. Happy to forgive that run but back to a shorter distance. Should put in a decent effort.
