Race 1 – Vaal Racecourse
DEFINITELY MAYBE found strong support on debut but had to settle for 3rd, within half a length. In a maiden like this that is strong form and she should prove much tougher for the effort. KISS TO DREAM has improved with each run and her latest 3rd, despite being well-held suggests she can make her play.
Top Tip – DEFINITELY MAYBE (8)
One to consider – KISS TO DREAM (2)

Race 2 – Vaal Racecourse
QUALITY JOKER is progressive and of interest with the blinkers shed after a handful of mixed efforts in them. He has work to do but this isn’t an overly tough task. MAGNUM P I has found the frame in all 3 runs to date and should find a way into the mix.
Top Tip – QUALITY JOKER (1)
One to consider – MAGNUM P I (4)
Race 3 – Vaal Racecourse
WILLOW LANE won her maiden over this trip at Turffontein on penultimate run and wasn’t disgraced in 5th over 8f here a fortnight back. She has the best draw today and can make up a lot of the difference. FASINADA is a hit and miss operator but is usually good enough to have her presence felt.
Top Tip – WILLOW LANE (2)

Race 4 – Vaal Racecourse
SAFE PASSAGE has a hat trick on the line and the move up to 10f might be key to helping him get there. He has proven very progressive for the De Kock team and receives weight from WILLOW’S WISH who is gunning for a 4 time of his own. Lyle Hewitson works wonderfully with this Sean Tarry colt and could foil the selection.
Top Tip – SAFE PASSAGE (6)
One to consider – WILLOW’S WISH (2)
Race 5 – Vaal Racecourse
SECRET IS OURS was popular on comeback over C&D but needed a spin and wasn’t disgraced in 4th. Now the pipes are open he can make amends with supporters. BLUE MOON CITY came back from a couple months off to win well over slightly shorter and could go in again.

Race 6 – Vaal Racecourse
DARK TRAVEL is in a good pocket of form and should put forward a compelling enough effort to secure a much deserved post-maiden victory. MIRACLE AND WONDER is a player now returning to the trip he has won and placed over.
Top Tip – DARK TRAVEL (6)
One to consider – MIRACLE AND WONDER (4)
Race 7 – Vaal Racecourse
MAY QUEEN gets a reluctant nod as she tries a trip longer than 6f for the first time. She does good work here and can make the most of her rider’s 9lb claim. NOW YOU SEE ME almost never gives a bad account of herself so should find a way to contest the finish over a winning C&D.
Top Tip – MAY QUEEN (2)

Race 8 – Vaal Racecourse
SPRINKLES has pole positon for comeback run and if able to pick up where he left off he could take the extra furlong in stride and notch a nice double on 3rd run. HOLLYWOODBOUND was last seen 3rd in a Greyville G2 race where he was well-held in 3rd. That is still a decent piece of form and he could be ready to put it to work after 110 days off.
Top Tip – SPRINKLES (3)
One to consider – HOLLYWOODBOUND (1)
