Vaal Race 1 - 4racing Welcomes You Mdn Plate

EPIDAURUS (1) finished second just seven days ago over 2000m at this track. On the quick back-up over more ground. Good effort last start and is long overdue. Worth following up. CLAIRWOOD BREEZE (4) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1800m at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths into fourth. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. COMIC ARTIST (5) is a 15-start maiden who could only manage to finish fourth at her latest appearance over 2000m at this track. Worth including in this suitable contest. CAPTAIN'S EXPRESS (3) was last at the races when he finished fifth over 1800m at this track on May 26. Comes here with definite top-three claims.

Form hard to fault. Last start 2nd of 7 at this track on August 6 over 2000m, 1.75 len behind Twelfth Of Never with 60kg at $6. Before that 3rd in a small field at this track on July 23 over 2000m, 3.5 len behind Heroic Act with 60kg at $3. Can improve again. Top chance.

Recent form sound. Most recently 4th of 7 at this track on August 6 over 2000m, 6 len behind Twelfth Of Never carrying 56.5kg at $17. The race before that 2nd in a small field at this track on July 23 over 2000m, 2.25 len behind Heroic Act carrying 56.5kg at $11. Easily accounted for last time out but this suits.
