BEST BETS
RACE 1 Sacambaya
B Crawford / C Mabaya
Ran very well last time out at Scottsville, will go very close if repeating that form here today.
RACE 4 Viva De Janeiro
F Bronkhorst / G Lerena
Had been running well until a slightly off form run last time, he should be involved in the finish again if he stays this longer distance. Both of his wins have been at the Vaal.
RACE 5 Sparkling Jubilee
M F De Kock / D De Gouveia
If fit enough on return, she could be good enough to win here.
RACE 8 Munchkin
M N Houdalakis / C Zackey
Looks to be returning to form and a win is not far away. Looked unlucky not to win last time out (See video)
