Vaal Tuesday 28 Sept

LYNTYS LEGACY PLACES
RED HOT places
LADY FAIR first 2
FSQUADRON quartets
IKIGAI ew
SISTER LIGHT could be better than rated

R 6 I fancy MIND READER e/way... BUT not totally sure on her fitness - rested 114 days :S

Nice low WEIGHT - loves the Vaal sprint - & I think she hated the SOFT going at Scottsville last time.

A.T.C. place trebble : MIND READER , BANHA BRIDGE - HOLLYWOOD BOUND = 6 /1

good punting gals an guys.

As is the norm these days, we have a few hotties in the earlier races that could prove hard to beat (of these I think Motown Magic is the one to rely on) - followed by very competitive races from the 5th onward - I do think in the 7th Toto is overdue, as is Elusive Woman in the 8th

Enjoy

Agreed, but so many "good things" don't win first time out. Track work and race day are worlds apart. I don't know what the horse's opening betting was, but if you took the 7to1 or 5to1 it's worth a go, but not at the current price. There's easier 12to10's out there.

7to10 now......they've punted it like they already know the result!

Lovely result!

didn't watch the race..... did the FAV.. ever look like a winner or chasing all the way from that draw ?

Very awkward ride - ran on but failed by a head

Will try and get replay but you won't see many unluckier horses than that.

Will be money on next start.

Green but had it been 20m further he wins....very hard to win from that draw but add inexperience and you need an exceptional horse or a very weak field...I think he's a nice horse but not a superstar

Hung the whole way

How pathetic is the presenting from the Vaal today? We dont get a stable comment from the trainer of the odds on first timer, who has the raced second favourite as well. Instead we hear his bs opinion on the horse based on the odds we all see and the breeding.
