Vaal Race 4 - Www.tab.co.za Work Riders Mdn Plate (F & M)
LOLLY WILLOWES (1) Finished 4th last start at the track. Expecting improvement here and has a positive draw. Could take beating. GLOBAL ROYALTY (3) Disappointing display when 6th last run at Turffontein. Open to improvement and is a strong chance again. VERSATILITY (7) Disappointing effort when 9th last start here but has drawn the rails. Prefers to settle towards the rear. Facing a rise in trip. Will appreciate the drop in weight. Not out of this. LIFE AND LETTERS (2) Mediocre attempt when 7th last start at Turffontein. Has plenty of early speed. Jockey Sam Mosia rates highly aboard. Good prospect for the exotics at least.

Was $5.00 and ran 4th last start at this track. Expecting improvement here and will try to take advantage of the draw. Definite claims for punters.

Uncompetitive when 7th last start at Turffontein. Should come to hand quickly. Sam Mosia is a smart booking. Can't leave out of your calculations.

Below par performance when 6th last run at Turffontein. Price in this race is tempting to get involved.

Odds of $41.00 and mediocre performance when 9th last time at Turffontein but having second career run. Will be a difficult test.

Racing fresh after a break. Came in 10th last time at this venue. Should muster plenty of early toe. One for your trifecta.

First up after a break. Was $21.00 and average performance when 8th last start at this venue. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Looks hopeful at best.

Disappointing outing when 9th last start at this venue but has a nice advantage with a good draw. Does take a while to get into stride. A threat to the other main hopes.
