Race 1 – Vaal Racecourse
MARADIVA rattled the crossbar in his first couple of outings before encountering trouble in the run on return as a gelding. He is likely to enter the mix for Paul Peter. TRUST THE FIRE is a 20 start maiden but has posted a few handy placed efforts here, including 2nd over C&D on penultimate outing.

Race 2 – Vaal Racecourse
KING ARTHUR needed the outing when 3rd over the extended mile on return from a few months off. Blinkers were refitted and they seemed to help once more, he’s fancied to be much better off today. MASTER OF COIN was a place ahead of the selection that day and could confirm the form but this will require further improvement.
Top Tip – KING ARTHUR (1)
One to consider – MASTER OF COIN (2)
Race 3 – Vaal Racecourse
RATTLE BAG has improved with each outing and has found 3rd the last twice, now upped in trip once more she could take some beating. CASSOWARY made huge improvement when upped to this trip here latest, finding 2nd by a neck at juicy 40/1 odds. Expect her to back it up if this is her ideal trip range.

Race 4 – Vaal Racecourse
BLACK THORN is in top shape and should be fit and fresh for his hat trick bid after a couple months rest. Sean Tarry has his string in fine form and he should take all the beating despite the lousy draw. JUAN CARLOS is in good shape of late, getting up over 9f here latest. The up in trip raises some questions but he looks progressive enough.
Top Tip – BLACK THORN (2)
One to consider – JUAN CARLOS (3)
Race 5 – Vaal Racecourse
ROUGE ALLURE is a well-raced veteran of 9 years who has proven quite capable over the journey. She was a most promising close-up 5th in refitted blinkers over the mile here latest and could have a trick or two up her sleeve. OPERA GLASS had excuses when beating none home over C&D latest, she was seen coughing. If she’s all better now she can recapture the standard that has seen her in red-hot form.
Top Tip – ROUGE ALLURE (1)

Race 6 – Vaal Racecourse
RABIA THE REBEL has a decent record over C&D and is very well-raced, albeit without winning as much as she should. She wasn’t best over 10f at Turffontein but a drop back here could help her cause. She has a lousy draw but has dealt with worse in the past. ONTHEVERGE has been building toward a post-maiden victory of late since retaining the blinkers that saw her home over the mile here in September. She’s a player but is similarly poorly-drawn to the selection so will need a bit of early luck.
Top Tip – RABIA THE REBEL (3)
One to consider – ONTHEVERGE (4)
Race 7 – Vaal Racecourse
GODSWOOD needed the run when 2nd over C&D on return from 99 days off. He’s paired with a 6lb claimer here and could get right back on top in ideal surrounds. ALL OF ME has proven herself effective over various trips and could get her way back in the sprints.
Top Tip – GODSWOOD (1)
One to consider – ALL OF ME (4)

Race 8 – Vaal Racecourse
IFRAANS BOY was a close-up 5th over C&D behind the reopposing GOLIATH HERON here last month. The blinkers are shed and he rarely runs a bad race, he could reverse the form. GOLIATH HERON had the selection and a few more of these in tow but will have to improve to hold them off on revised terms.
Top Tip – IFRAANS BOY (2)
One to consider – GOLIATH HERON (3)
