Vaal Race 9

Next Turffontein Racemeeting Saturday 04 April Fm 76 Divided Handicap (F & M)

Prize Money: $8,846

BLINDFIRE (1) was far from disgraced when second last start over 1000m at Vaal, beaten 0.9 lengths. That followed a win at Vaal the start prior. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. TEMPRANILLO (3) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1000m at Vaal, beaten 1.75 lengths into fourth. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. LOVABLE (4) was safely held when tenth last time out over 1200m at Vaal, beaten 9 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. KIA KAHA (5) has not appeared since she finished sixth over 1000m at Vaal on January 17. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race.
