|
Expecting a slick tempo with Trois Trois Quatre, Pocket Watch and Weather Wizard leading the way. POCKET WATCH (2) was given a gun ride when winning his last start over 1600m on this course. The manner in which he finished off his race that day suggests that he will like the extra furlong on offer. Gavin Lerena retains the ride and against similar company, he can follow up. TROIS TROIS QUATRE (1) was doing his best work late when finishing fourth over this distance on the Inside course last time. Should be fighting out the finish. CELTIC RUSH (5) continues to race well with a win two back at Vaal before finishing third last time over 1600m at this track. Should race up on the speed and has each-way claims. MOCHA FRAPPE (9) finished third of 13 last start over 1600m at Vaal. Rates well as a leading chance.
