Vaal Race 4

Take A Bet Wina Numba Numba Middle Stakes

Prize Money: $13,962

FRANCINE (3) stayed on well when fourth of 15 over 1600m last time. Won her only attempt on this course and she should give the males a decent run for their money. ZUZAN (2) won a game race in his last start over 1600m at Turffontein. He has won twice from three starts on this course. He is likely to race on the speed from pole position and may be hard to peg back. SILENT WAR (1) is better than his last start run for sixth would suggest. He is unbeaten from two starts on this course. If putting his best foot forward, he should be involved in the fight to the finish. COMMAND PILOT (4) returns from a spell which may have done him the world of good. He won his penultimate outing over this distance. He finished second in his only attempt on this course. Calvin Habib steps back into the saddle and if fit, he can feature in the top-three.

Useful type. Comes off a 33 day let-up. Most recently 4th of 15 at Turffontein Standside on March 1 over 1600m, 3 len behind Gimmefabulous carrying 56kg at $13.50. The race before that 5th of 8 at Turffontein Standside on February 8 over 1400m, 6 len behind Ikigai carrying 58kg at $2.70. Working up to a win. Worth following.

Resumes after a break of 12 weeks and has been in the money when fresh before. Finished off last preparation seventh of 10 at Turffontein Standside January 11 over 1600m, 6 len behind Pomodoro's Jet with 53kg at $9.50. Previously first up; third of 9 at Turffontein Standside October 26 over 1800m, 1.5 len behind Marauding Horde carrying 54kg at $7. Could prove too smart for these.
