Turffontein Race 5

Play Soccer 6, 10 And 13 Mr 96 Handicap

Prize Money: $12,637

SUTHERLAND (9) was well supported when resuming last time out over 1200m at Vaal and proved too strong, scoring by 2.75 lengths. Has a solid second-up record and he looks hard to stop again. PAUL REVERE (8) scored at Vaal last time out with 0.1 lengths to spare over today's journey. Goes well over this journey with two wins and five minor placings. Leading player. IT'S PERSONAL (7) was well fancied when resuming but found a couple better at Vaal, finishing 0.7 lengths adrift at the end of 1200m. Will appreciate the extra ground. Among the chances. CHAMPION WARRIOR (2) is back from a spell of 12 weeks. Scored a good win at his final run last campaign at Vaal over 1400m. Can make his presence felt.
