Turffontein Race 1 - Betway Welcomes You Graduation Plate
LEAD THE CHARGE (2) won an easy race in his last start over 1200m on this course. It must be noted that the horse that finished third that day has come out and won since. He is the class horse in this contest and he should take a power of beating. MASTER CASPER (5) raced from just off the pace over this distance last time but found one too good on the day. He is well placed at the weights and should be the one to fill the exacta spot. TAXI TO THE MOON (4) finished 4.5 lengths behind the top pick when finishing third last time. He is 3kgs better off at the weights today and should finish closer as a result. CYMRIC (3) is resuming from a spell and will be suited by the small field. He is not without top 3 claims in this.

Useful type. Last start won by 1.5 len at this track August 24 over 1200m defeating Buffalo Storm Cody carrying 55.5kg at $4.50. The run before that 4th of 10 at Greyville in the G2 Umkhomazi Stakes on July 28 over 1200m, 2.75 len behind Cats Pajamas with 60kg at $51. Great chance to win again.

Form hard to fault. Last start 3rd in a small field at this track on August 24 over 1200m, 4.5 len behind Lead The Charge with 58.5kg at $3. Before that won by 1.5 len at Turffontein Standside July 27 over 1160m defeating Karate Kid carrying 60kg at $2.80. Likely to play a big role.
