Turffontein Race 2 - 7F Stakes
LEGEND OF ARTHUR (1) is a promising colt who is resuming from a spell. Won twice from three starts last prep, including last time out when scoring as the odds-on favourite. Should prove hard to beat. ZANTHAR (8) resumes from a spell following a last start of second of seven at this track last start. Fresh-up with Richard Fourie in the saddle rates highly. MOUNT PINATUBO (3) was well supported last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth and beaten 2.5 lengths at Greyville over 1400m. Looks well placed here to atone. SKITTLES SKIES (7) was in the money on debut before finishing fourth last time out over 1200m at Vaal when well fancied. Include in exotic bets

Resuming after a ten weeks break. Not seen since winning to post a big 5 len win. This track April 27 over 1600m defeating Panning Gold with 60kg at $2.10. On debut third in a small field at this track February 25 over 1000m, 2.5 len behind Mount Pinatubo carrying 60kg at $3.50. Has plenty of scope for improvement this time in work.

Third race start today. At very long odds at debut, 2nd of 16 at Vaal on June 4 over 1200m, 5.5 len behind Valieva with 60kg at $51. Second-up 4th of 12 at Vaal on June 20 over 1200m, 6 len behind Bregardt carrying 57kg at $5. Solid claims.
