Two meetings today in South Africa, so devoted most of my time to these -
10.20 Vaal - LIKE A PRAYER - Reasonably expensive purchase and represents a stable that can get one ready at 12's.
10.55 Vaal - ON TARGET - Fair debut. The 3rd horse has come out and given the form a boost, so should be thereabouts at 3's.
12.05 Vaal - JAPANESE MAPLE - Better than last two runs. Chance on best form and is edging down the weights at 10's.
12.43 Vaal - DOUGLAS DRAGON - Returns to the scene of his maiden well and has quickly been dropped in the ratings at 12's.
1.05 Kenilworth - CHEERFUL CHARLIE B - Quite nicely bred newcomer and basically could not resist the 50's on offer.
2.15 Kenilworth - TRIP TO MAPUTO - Fair enough comeback run and should strip fitter today at 16's.
2.50 Kenilworth - CORONATION TIME - Prefers this course and may just try and nick it from the front at 14's.
3.25 Kenilworth - ANALYTIC - Jockey's only booked ride on the card and to be fair, has been running OK. Back up to 9f today and could surprise at 25's. Fellow outsider Expedition South is lightly raced and gets in with no weight on her back. Very surprised to see the 33's on offer with this one.
