Turffontein Race 8 - Next Turffontein Racemeeting Tuesday 22 October Novice Handicap

WILD INTENT (4) followed up his debut victory with a good fourth-place finish over 1400m at the Vaal. He was squeezed leaving the starting stalls that day but still finished off his race strongly. He looks to have some class about him and he should go close to taking this out. CHESTNUT BOMBER (3) was running on strongly when runner-up over 1450m on this course last start. He will be cherry-ripe third up and is the main threat to the top pick. ZIP CODE (1) was running on when second over 1450m on the Vaal Classic course last time out. He resumes from a spell, during which time he was gelded. Muzi Yeni rides and if he doesn't need the run, he will be right in the finish. FIREBURST (8) won a good race when shedding her maiden status here over this distance last start. She is nicely weighted with only 53kg to carry and has the scope to take the next step immediately.
