Vaal Race 8 - Betway Fm 76 Handicap (F & M)
MIGHTY GODDESS (4) has good consistent form lines to her credit. She challenged strongly over 1800m last time but found one too good on the day when resuming from a spell. She has won once, finished second once and third once from as many starts over this distance. She will strip a much fitter horse today and can notch up her fourth-career victory. ACROSS THE POND (5) won a good race in her last start over this distance. She meets a similar line-up and merits healthy respect. PRINCESS ILARIA (2) has not finished too far off the winner in recent outings. She has won twice and finished second once from six starts on this course. She is versatile and may be rewarded for consistency. TWOSTEP QUEEN (6) finished fourth two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score over 1600m at this track. Finds a suitable race and can build on that solid recent effort. Include in combinations.
