Turffontein Race 4 - Play Soccer 6, 10 And 13 Juvenile Plate

EXPERT WITNESS (5) returned last time with a solid second at Turffontein Inside over 1600m after being prominent at the bend. Can only be fitter and looks tough to beat again. SPIRIT OF GABZ (3) is usually thereabouts but finds it hard to win, with only one victory from 10 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when fourth over 1400m at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths. Has the class to take care of this field. SNOWBLADE (9) was in contention on the corner and finished third last start over 1000m at this track, beaten 7 lengths. Placed to advantage so expect a forward showing. RAFE'S ORACLE (8) ran a fair race on debut last time out, beaten 3.5 lengths into fifth over 1600m at Turffontein Inside on June 11. Right in this.

Second-up. Promising on debut 4th of 8 at Vaal on March 26 over 1000m, 10 len behind Gimme Some Luck with 60kg at $3.50. Went for a break before returning 2nd of 9 at Turffontein Inside on June 11 over 1600m, 2 len behind Knight Heist with 60kg at $8. Nice return and fitter again. Strong winning chance.

Form hard to fault. Last start 3rd of 10 at this track on June 14 over 1000m, 7 len behind Bisou Bisou with 60kg at $2.70. The start before that 4th of 9 at Turffontein Inside on June 11 over 1600m, 2.75 len behind Knight Heist with 58.6kg at $1.60. Good effort last start and can build on that performance.
