Turffontein Race 3 - Racing Today Mdn Plate

DOCTOR STRANGELOVE (5) has filled a minor placing at both runs to date, the latest when beaten 5 lengths into third over 1400m at Vaal. Should be prominent from the outset. Best form puts him right in this. EPIDAURUS (2) improved last start to finish second over 1800m at Vaal. It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is capable of a big performance. INCLUSION (1) finished fourth over 2000m at Vaal at his most recent appearance on February 24. Looks a strong top-three prospect. COMIC ARTIST (8) finished midfield last start at Vaal over 1800m, 7 lengths from the winner. Steps up in distance today and is sure to be thereabouts.

Form hard to fault. Last start 4th in a small field at Vaal on May 26 over 1800m, 7 len behind Samuel Sharpe carrying 56.5kg at $4.50. The start before that 4th in a small field at this track on May 7 over 2000m, 5 len behind Green Machine with 56.5kg at $6. Beaten comfortably last start but is capable of better.
