Vaal Race 2 - Equus Champion Stayer: Holding Thumbs Mdn Plate

UP AND UP (8) is building towards a maiden win after minor placings at her last two runs, the latest when second over 1600m at Turffontein Inside, beaten 4.5 lengths. Should be poised just off the lead. Sure to be in the finish. TWO TIGERS (2) is a eight-start maiden who finished second over 1000m at this track last time out. Placed five of last six runs the latest here. Another bold run is expected. MULHOLLAND DRIVE (9) is a two-start maiden who placed on debut then could only manage seventh last start, beaten 5.5 lengths over 1200m at Scottsville. Solid effort on debut a good reference. FREDERICO CAGISHAS (6) is a three-year-old colt on debut from the stable of Tony Peter. By Hat Puntano from Frederico's Dream. Watch the market closely.
