Turffontein Race 6 - Tab Telebet 011 074 0300 Middle Stakes

PAUL REVERE (9) made it two wins in a row last time out when he scored by 2.75 lengths over 1450m at Turffontein Inside. Winning rider Blaine Marx-Jacobson retains the mount. Hard rot faulty recent form and loves the trip. Drawn to enjoy a cosy run from an inside stall. A BIT OF CLASS (11) returns from a spell of nine weeks. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when sixth over 1600m at Turffontein Inside. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Will give a great sight. OPEN HIGHWAY (6) turned in a modest performance when seventh last time out over 1500m at Vaal, beaten 5 lengths. That followed a win at Vaal at the previous outing. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. THE AFRICA HOUSE (8) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a nice race last time out, finishing fourth and beaten only 1.1 lengths over 1600m at Turffontein Inside. Nicely placed to play a big role.

Returns from a 30-day let-up. At the latest run 7th of 11 at Vaal on March 31 over 1500m, 5 len behind Bob's Your Uncle with 58kg at $8. The run before that won by 2 len at Vaal March 5 over 1600m on a rain affected track defeating The Playboy Bomber with 54kg at $6.50. Better than latest. Nicely drawn and should prove hard to beat.

Chasing a hat-trick. Comes off a 42 day let-up. Last start favourite; won by 2.75 len at Turffontein Inside March 19 over 1450m defeating Fostinovo with 59.5kg at $3.30. The start before that favourite; won by a 0.1 len at Vaal January 24 over 1400m defeating Yippee Kiyay carrying 49.5kg at $9. Hard rot faulty with wins last two. Loves the trip. Drawn to enjoy a cosy run from an inside stall.

Most recently 5th of 9 at Turffontein Inside on April 9 over 1450m, 6 len behind Father Christmas carrying 58.5kg at $15. Before that 6th of 9 at Turffontein Inside on February 19 over 1450m, 4.5 len behind Famous Lady with 50.5kg at $101. Happy enough to avoid.
