TAB TELEBET 011 074 0300 FM 93 DIVIDED HANDICAP 1000m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 20)    

Vanakkam and Executrix possess good early speed. JUST THE TWO OF US (1) defied a lack of market support last start, scoring by one length over 1000m at Turffontein Standside. Strong record course and distance and scored this grade last time. Big chance to make it back-to-back successes. MYSTICAL MISS (7) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 2.75 lengths away in third over 1000m at this track. Ideally placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping. RUSSIAN NOBILITY (5) resumes after a break of four-and-a-half months. Did win at her only other first-up run when on debut, scoring over 1200m at Turffontein Inside. Should be prominent. VANAKKAM (2) has been in the placings her past two starts, finishing third over 1000m at Turffontein Standside last time out. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Deserves respect on best figures.
