PREVIEW: VAAL - 11 FEBRUARY 2016

PREVIEW: VAAL - 11 FEBRUARY 2016

RACE 1:

INANINSTANT  should improve on her two starts thus far. Distance will suit more. JAYRISTA tends to weaken but may be better suited by the extra as well. TOPOGRAPHY has fair form but returns with respiratory noises. WINDY DESERT may improve to place. ANGEL OF MERCY needs to find earlier form.

1st - INANINSTANT (12); 2nd - JAYRISTA (7); 3rd - TOPOGRAPHY (1); 4th - WINDY DESERT (4); 5th - ANGEL OF MERCY (2)

RACE 2:

HA LUCY has not won in a long time but has shown some glimpses of earlier promise. MISS DECEMBER has been consistent. LEILA'S CHARGER did not show against stronger last time. Can improve today. OLD EM has only raced once since the first day of the season. One to keep an eye on. JO MALONE won this C & D last time. Can repeat.

1st - HA LUCY (3); 2nd - MISS DECEMBER (4); 3rd - LEILA'S CHARGER (5); 4th - OLD EM (6); 5th - JO MALONE (2)

RACE 3:

VEE MAN has been improving with each run since making his debut three runs back. Should fight it out with GAGGLE who disappointed last time over a distance too far. Yard is returning to form. MAJESTIC LEGACY can improve on a fair debut last time. RAIN SHADOW is improving and should earn something. COUNT RED is a COUNT DU BOIS first timer.

1st - VEE MAN (1); 2nd - GAGGLE (2); 3rd - MAJESTIC LEGACY (9); 4th - RAIN SHADOW (3); 5th - COUNT RED (7)

RACE 4:

CHOSEN AL ran his best race in six last time when finishing well over this C & D. ZEN MASTER ran an encouraging debut run last time. DE LUJO runs for the twenty second time. Still has hope of a maiden win. WILLIAM NICOL has been expensive to follow but always has a chance. TOGETHER FOREVER ran poorly on debut last time. Can only improve.

1st - CHOSEN AL (3); 2nd - ZEN MASTER (9); 3rd - DE LUJO (1); 4th - WILLIAM NICOL (2); 5th - TOGETHER FOREVER (8)

RACE 5:

GOLDEN MEMORIES, on the evidence of her latest run, must have a good chance of winning her maiden today. SHE'S A FLIRT ran on well for third this C & D last time. Can go all the way today. SPIRIT OF LOVE had excuses last time. LAKAHAL ran her best race when over this C & D last time. SHINE BRIGHT hung on debut last time. Watch for improvement.

1st - GOLDEN MEMORIES (2); 2nd - SHE'S A FLIRT (6); 3rd - SPIRIT OF LOVE (3); 4th - LAKAHAL (4); 5th - SHINE BRIGHT (12)

RACE 6:

KAPITAN looks to have a strong chance on latest run which was over this C & D last time. Stable companion, IMPERIAL GOLD, looks to be improving and is down in class with a light mass. WILL PAYS has run on in his last two. Up in class. DUKE NUKEM is never far back but is best with respiratory problems. PURE BLONDE has won two from four which includes a C & D win last time.

1st - KAPITAN (1); 2nd - IMPERIAL GOLD (10); 3rd - WILL PAYS (2); 4th - DUKE NUKEM (7); 5th - PURE BLONDE (8)

RACE 7:

ELUSIVE FLYER was rewarded for consistency last time with a good win over similar. ROCKY STALLONE improved to win last time. Can repeat.. LIKE A BOSS weakened latter stages last time. Can go close at best. FORTUNE FELLA did not react favourably with the cheek pieces last time. They come off today. CHARANGA won well over shorter last time. Takes on stronger and further today.

1st - ELUSIVE FLYER (2); 2nd - ROCKY STALLONE (5); 3rd - LIKE A BOSS (3); 4th - FORTUNE FELLA (4); 5th - CHARANGA (7)

RACE 8:

ABASHIRI runs for the third time after a four month rest and on form looks to be the best bet on the card. Has won two from four and will enjoy the drop in class. TRADING PROFIT has a chance on last two efforts and has a top jockey riding. THE BIG EASY shows good pace but weakens late. TOM FOOL may improve to place with a drop in class. NETFLIX will need a better finish but is C & D suited.

1st - ABASHIRI (1); 2nd - TRADING PROFIT (3); 3rd - THE BIG EASY (5); 4th - TOM FOOL (2); 5th - NETFLIX (4)

RACE 9:

TIP OF THE GLACIER has shown enough in four starts to suggest that it won't take him too long to pick up her maiden soon. HAPPY KING showed some improvement last time. TIKI TORCH is improving ever so slowly. IL DUCE has run some decent races at this track. Cheek pieces on! PIPER ARROW showed improvement last time. Jockey in excellent form.

1st - TIP OF THE GLACIER (12); 2nd - HAPPY KING (4); 3rd - TIKI TORCH (3); 4th - IL DUCE (6); 5th - PIPER ARROW (8)
