PREVIEW: VAAL - 26 MAY 2016

PREVIEW: VAAL - 26 MAY 2016

RACE 1:

 
5-8-10-1-9

DROMEDARIS showed huge improvement in his second start last time. PLATINUM LEGEND could be the big improver from debut last time. MISSIBABA takes on the "boys". Has never been too far off them. ARTIFICIO makes his debut. Could be anything. SPEED MONITOR was not too far off on debut last time.

RACE 2:
 
14-12-7-9-5

TIMEDTOPERFECTION has lost ground at the start in both starts thus far. SAMEEHA looks to have scope for improvement. MALEFICENT was well supported on debut last time. Will be fighting it out.  MATING CALL has had two fair runs. LEGEND SEEKER cannot be faulted on her two runs.

RACE 3:

2-4-1-5-3

JUSTASH was staying on in an improved run last time. JUST A GIGOLO weakens but can go close in this field. Ignore the latest run of TIME TO BE GREAT as he received a bump at the start.  DEVIOUS XANDRE could cause an upset. QUATTRO looks to be losing form. Has run better than his last two.

RACE 4:


4-1-2-11-5

LINDY LU could pick up her maiden win soon. Improved latest two. FLYING DREAM has also improved markedly in her last two. MATRESSE ran on in an improved run last time. The extra will suit. JACKIE'S JOY is not out of it. Has run well this C & D. ENTICER was running on last time. First run on the Highveld. 

RACE 5:

2-1-3-4-7

STREETWEAR has gone close in his last two. Should challenge again. CALABASH has had two good runs out of three runs in KZN. First run on the Highveld. CARACAL has some decent form and can pose something of a threat. MALINGA has been close up but needs to run on. MASTEROFTHESTARS could be finding form.

RACE 6:

1-6-4-5-2

CHAPARDO won his first four starts before finishing a close up second last time. Drops in class and should be too strong again this afternoon. SEVEN SINGLE has good form having won his maiden and post maiden in his last two. Has quite a bit to find to beat CHAPARDO. NETFLIX found a very good finish over shorter last time. HYAKU should give another good account of himself. Respect jockey and trainer. MERCADO could place at very best.

RACE 7:

6-11-1-2-4

ROCKY STALLONE came desperately close last time in an improved run. PENTELIKO won his post maiden last time making it two from two. Sire GO DEPUTY has been having a good week to this point. ELUSIVE FLYER drops in class but may improve with the blinkers. DANTE'S LEGACY needs a stronger finish. ENAAD has shown some promise but cannot be relied upon.

RACE 8:

4-12-3-8-10

TOKYO DRIFT has been in good form and won this C & D last time. Can repeat. Drops in class. CASCIANO ran on to win over further last time. Should challenge. REBEL RENEGADE also found a good finish last time, but to win over shorter. Caused an upset when winning last time. WILLIAM NICOL can never be underestimated. Invariably runs well. DEVIOUS TIGER did stay on last time and this is his best distance with four of his five wins over the trip.
