VAAL CLASSIC TUESDAY 23 JANUARY 2024

It does look a punters card and I get the impression that the HW punters competition could have a winner? 

A few not-so-obvious ones to consider - 

R2: Atarime comes out of strong Maiden form line and was beaten only a head - the hottie Marauding Horde had an impressive debut, but is drawn a bit wide and Atarime could give him a run imo

R3: Favorite is drawn wide and would have to be quite good to win imo

R4: At the weights I think Hazlo Grande could be competitive

R6: Courageous beat Mizzen Sail (subsequent easy winner) by 4 lengths and could challenge the favorite in what looks a 2-horse contest

R7: Lucy in the Sky good each-way value imo

R8: Lerena is on Karangetang - needed her last two and should feature

R9: In the Ether best over 1000 and another who looks good each-way value.

Enjoy 


 

Race 1 - ALMOND SEA

Could still happen,though very unlikely,but only 2 entrants with 4 winners after the first four races.
SA racing is just too unpredictable and anything could happen with the quality we have on show these days.
 

Almond sea impressive again in race 1
