GOING:

RACING TODAY MR 94 OPEN HANDICAP 1600m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 19)    

Stokesy and Fire Storm to take it up. WAYNE (3) missed the placings two runs back then did well last start but found one better over 1600m at Vaal, beaten only 1.75 lengths after being prominent at the corner. Has the ability to figure prominently. IDEAL SUMMER (2) resumes from a long break after finishing fourth, beaten 3.5 lengths. Resuming in easier grade and trip suits fresh. Can return in winning form. BUDDY BOY (4) has been kept fresh since running below his best at the last run four weeks ago, finishing eighth over 1800m at this track. Deserves another chance. FIRE STORM (5) finished third last start over 1600m at this track, beaten 1.5 lengths. Not far away last start. Progressive type and looks a big chance.
