Vaal

Race 1

Fabian Habib
No 8 Brave Dea - Will need the experience
No 14 Solarize - Will need the experience
Alec Laird
No 11 Leading Lad - Needs further
Johan Janse van Vuuren
No 15 Warm Applause - Not a bad type but needs further
Chris Jonker
No 12 Orphelin Noir - If he can be covered up in running then I expect
a good run from him
Corne Spies
No 6 Waimea - Ran a nice second after a break last time and he should
have a good chance

Race 2

Roy Magner
No 1 Allez Les Bleu- Doing well, will need the run
Gokhan Terzi
No 3 Zantina - Coming off a lay off, should be thereabouts if not
needing the run
Dorrie Sham
No 5 Sweet Chariot - Will need the run
Johan Janse van Vuuren
No 9 Friendship Alley - Not showing much
No 11 Lady Of Steel - Decent filly, should be able to place
Paul Matchett
No 10 Island Mistress - Will need the run
Fabian Habib
No 12 Maculate - Too short, will need the run
Ashley Fortune
No 7 Sasskia - Her last run was disappointing but we're hoping for a
better effort

Race 3

Chris Jonker
No 11 Ice Eater - He always tries his best and can again finish in the money

Race 4

Grant Maroun
No 4 Country Squire - Will need the run
Chris Erasmus
No 5 Nitro Charge - Will need it
Chris Jonker
No 7 Spanish Tune - Distance too short and he will need the run
Corne Spies
No 3 Windy Flight - He will be more suited to this distance and
hopefully can finish in the money

Race 5

Gary Alexander
No 5 Pretty Popular - Outside place chance
Mike/Matthew De Kock
No 6 Stage Dance - She has come on since her first run back after a
break and should be very competitive

Race 6
Gary Alexander
No 9 Vine Street Star - Place chance
Paul Peter
No 4 Celeste - Small place chance
No 6 Rachel - Small place chance
Corne Spies
No 1 Miss Khalifa - Was beaten by the draw last time and she looks to
have a decent winning chance

Race 7

Geoff Woodruff
No 1 Mr Whatson - Lengthy lay off, may just need it but has had two
grass gallops, must be included
Mike/Matthew De Kock

expecting a positive run
Ashley Fortune

Paul Peter
No 3 Ring Of Fire - Good each-way chance

Race 8

Gary Alexander
No 1 Zeal And Zest - Not well drawn but does have an each-way chance

RACE ONE

NO.5 HOUSE MASTER (E/W)

20/1

Returning after a lay off and has been gelded

Ignore last effort (Slow-never showed)

Penultimate run was good... finished in 4th place 3L off MARSHALL over the 1160m (Good late progress)

Gelding will obviously make a world of difference and if repeating penultimate...in with a chance!!

MARK KHAN COULD WIN THE FIRST 3 RACES


550/1


TREBLE

:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

Would like the quartet in first ?
