Vaal Race 4 - Play Soccer 6, 10 And 13 Maiden Plate
GOOD COUNCIL (9) has gotten better every time he has stepped out to the races and this looks no harder than recent outings. Will be right there when the whips are cracking. HAROLD THE DUKE (1) has placed over this track and trip and is drawn to get a soft run from the low draw. Looks a danger. FLAG BEARER (3) has placed three of his past four and looks a genuine top-three candidate. ATLANTIC CITY (2) strips fitter third-up and can earn some minor money. SONG TO THE SUN (11) best of the rest.

Comes off a 46 day let-up. At the latest run struggled in the run home; 5th of 7 at Turffontein Standside on May 8 over 2400m, 11 len behind Lamborghreeni with 60kg at $3.30. The run before that 2nd of 8 at Turffontein Inside on April 5 over 2600m, slow going nose behind Kissed By Fire carrying 60kg at $2.70. Watch for sharp improvement.

Third-up. Resuming 7th of 10 at Turffontein Inside on May 29 over 1600m, 19 len behind Brenden James with 60kg at $9.50. Second run from a spell 7th of 10 at Turffontein Standside on June 12 over 1800m, 12 len behind The Brief carrying 60kg at $51. Safely held last time out but this suits.

Second run back. First-up after four months raced on the pace before fading second last of 19 at this track on May 26 over 1400m, 21 len behind Orgetorix carrying 60kg at $126. Previously second-up second last of 8 at Turffontein Standside on January 30 over 1600m, on a slow track; 11 len behind Pewter Sky with 59kg at $26. Unlikely to threaten.

Having third race start. At debut, ran last in a small field at Turffontein Inside on April 5 over 1000m, slow going 15 len behind Mescal carrying 58.5kg at $21. Second-up ran last of 19 at this track on May 26 over 1400m, 22 len behind Orgetorix carrying 56kg at $126. Others read better. This will test.
