Turffontein Race 4 - Racehorse Owners Association Mr 80 Handicap

SPUMANTE DOLCE (10) was an easy winner on debut over 1400m at the Vaal. It must be noted that multiple horses from that form line have come out and won since. She has untapped potential and can win again. DARK SILVER (2) took the lead at the 400m mark last time, before getting outrun late and finishing runner-up. It must be noted that the horse that finished fourth that day has come out and won since. With a bit of luck in running, he should be right in the finish again. KUDZU (1) has finished second in his last three starts. He is having his peak run today and will be cherry-ripe. Gavin Lerena steps back into the saddle and the combination merits healthy respect. HAZLO GRANDE (4) fought on when sixth over 1800m on the Vaal Classic course last time. He drops back in class and should finish in the money.

At the latest run 2nd of 7 at this track on December 28 over 1400m, 2.75 len behind King Of Numbers with 58.5kg at $3.50. The start before that favourite; won by 1.0 len at this track November 23 over 1400m defeating Libeccio with 55.5kg at $3. Rates highly and is among the main hopes.
