Vaal Race 3 - Racing Today Mdn Plate (3-Year-Old Fillies)
NORTHERN EUROPEAN (1) Looked good when 3rd last time at Turffontein and racing over extra ground. Won't be far away during the run. Is in good order and can run well. BE THE ONE (2) Backs up quickly. Not in contention when 5th last time at Turffontein. Can make a comeback. Large claim helps. Should go close. LIFE'S TREASURES (3) Uncompetitive when 4th last time at Turffontein. Looking past the last run and going over extra ground. Hoping that the added weight won't hurt. Must respect. ROYAL RANT (4) Finished 4th last run at this venue but going over more ground. Don't leave out of trifectas.

On a short turnaround. Jumped at $6.00 and basic showing when 5th last time at Turffontein. Can make a comeback. The large claim from D Ramkhalawon helps. Strong claims in this.

Started $19.00 and mediocre attempt when 4th last time at Turffontein. Looking past the last run and racing over more ground. Up in weight. Should go close.

Started at $26.00 and average performance when 7th last start at this venue but was a debutant last start. Has a positive draw. Stepping up in trip. Most likely not today.

Jumped at $13.00 and disappointing outing when 9th last run at Turffontein but has minimal work to do from the draw. Jockey K De Melo adds value. Will need to find a few more lengths.
