Turffontein Race 3 - Betway Mr 80 Hcp

WHATSDAMATTERWITHU (4) made it two wins in succession last time out when he scored by a nose over 1160m at Turffontein Standside. Hard to fault and can make it a winning hat-trick. BANYAN (1) resumes in a similar race to his only run last prep back on March 12 when seventh, beaten 8 lengths. Has a win and three minor placings at this journey from six starts and is sure to run well. ICE DRAGON (5) made progress last time out, finishing 2.75 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 1000m at Turffontein Standside after being prominent at the bend. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. CALADRIUS (6) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago but couldn't follow that up last time out when fourth over 1000m at Vaal, beaten 3.5 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time.
