Vaal Race 3 - For Hospitality Bookings Call 011 681 1796 Work Riders Mdn Plate
EPIDAURUS (1) Was competitive when 2nd last time around here and has minimal work to do from the alley. Likely to get back in the run. Right in the thick of it and is a major player. EVENING NEWS (2) Not in contention when 5th last run at the track. Expecting improvement. Suited. HEROIC ACT (3) Subpar when 6th last start at Turffontein. Sam Mosia is a bonus. Will be giving the leaders a big start. Hard to dismiss. COMIC ARTIST (4) Lacklustre showing when 6th last time here but has a positive draw. Looks set to run a place.

Started $17.00 and fairly underwhelming when 6th last start at Turffontein. Sam Mosia is an advantage. Might be ridden for luck. Will show up at the business end.

Disappointing outing when 5th last time at Turffontein but going over extra ground. Should race on the speed. Likely to be an exotics contender.
