Turffontein Race 8 - Viljoen Family's Clair Thompson Memorial Mr 92 Divided Hcp
AMERICAN BEAUTY (9) Tailed off when 5th last time at Vaal. Blaine Marx Jacobson and Tony Peter are consistently competitive when paired. Should muster plenty of early speed. Goes very close. RINGA RINGA ROSES (12) Resuming after a break. Below expectations when 9th last run at this track but carrying less weight this time. One of the major players. GALLIC VICTOR (8) Looked good when 2nd last time here. Looks promising in this race. DANTE'S BOND (1) Finished 4th last start at this track but going up in distance. Large claim helps and gets a favourable alley. Can measure up to this company.

Returns from a one-month freshening after a sound second-up platform when fourth in an Open over 1000m at this track, beaten a length and a half and near the top of betting. His previous run was also a fourth in BM96 company at Turffontein Standside. The 4kg claim and barrier one help, but 1450m is new territory, so he shapes as a genuine placing chance rather than a clear win anchor.

Resumes after five months off, having last been seen running third in a BM88 over 1600m at Vaal, beaten just over half a length as an outside chance. That was a sharp turnaround from an eighth at Turffontein Standside when beaten over 16 lengths. His overall record is sound and Calvin Habib has won on him, but the long break makes this a demanding return.

Was below his best last start when second last in a PLATE at this track, beaten just over seven lengths after starting at generous odds. The run prior is the key reference: he won a BM80 here on soft ground, beating Aint No Doubt by just under two lengths as the heavily backed favourite. Weight relief and a strong 1450m profile keep him in the place mix if he rebounds.

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing seventh in a CUP at this track, beaten just under five lengths at big odds. His Vaal run prior was also safely held when fifth in a BM83, beaten six lengths in a small field. The veteran has an excellent track-and-distance base, but recent efforts say he has to find sharper form to trouble these.

Returns from a three-month break after ending last campaign with a fifth in a BM96 at this track, beaten just over six lengths in a six-runner field at long odds. He had earlier been fourth at Turffontein Standside, also at long odds. The broader concern is form depth, with no placings from seven starts in the past 12 months and no placing from two tries around 1450m.

Has been well held at both latest runs, finishing tenth over 1200m at Vaal last start when beaten seven and a half lengths, after also finishing last at Vaal in an Open. Market respect two back did not translate into performance. His 1450m record is a genuine positive, but current form is the clear obstacle and he must show considerably more.

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing second last in a CUP at this track, beaten six lengths. His prior run was better when fourth in an Open here over 1200m, beaten four lengths at generous odds. He has won twice and placed once from six starts around 1450m, and third-up fitness gives him some scope to improve into a minor cheque.

Went close in a PLATE at this track last start, finishing second to Radio Star, beaten a length and a half after being heavily backed favourite. That followed a BM96 fourth here when beaten just under a length as a firming favourite, so the recent form is dependable. With one win and two placings from four starts at 1450m, he has the right profile to win this.

Was respectable first-up at Vaal when fifth in an FM BM84 over 1600m, beaten two and a half lengths in a small field after being near the top of betting. Her previous run was a fourth in FM BM90 company, beaten a length and a half. She is already a winner at this track and distance, and weight relief gives her a realistic place chance second-up.

Was plain on the quick back-up last start when ninth in a CUP at this track, beaten five and a half lengths with no clear excuse. His start prior was much stronger, finishing second in a CUP here and beaten a head after attracting support despite long odds. Weight relief is important, and his consistent placing record keeps him a serious winning hope if he reproduces that run.

Resumes after six months off following a disappointing end to last campaign, finishing second last in an FM BM82 at this track and beaten nine and a half lengths despite market respect. Her Vaal third in FM BM95 company the run before was much better, and her track-and-distance record is strong. Even so, she has to return much sharper to threaten this field.
