Greyville Race 4 - Durban Gold Vase (Grade 3)

SHOOT THE RAPIDS (8) started favourite last time but found a couple better over 2400m in Group 3 class at this track. Will appreciate the extra ground. Should be in the finish again. AHEAD OF THE FACTS (10) made significant late ground last start to get up for second over 2400m in Listed grade at this track. Richard Fourie stays on. One of the contenders. HOLDING THUMBS (4) was out of the money two runs back when fresh from a spell then again missed the frame last start over 2400m at this track, beaten 5 lengths into seventh. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects. POETS WARRIOR (11) should be at top and will run the trip. Leading player ready to win.
