Vaal Race 3 - Play Soccer 6, 10 And 13 Graduation Plate

TROMPE L'OEIL (2) turned in a modest performance when sixth last time out over 1000m at Turffontein Inside, beaten 6 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. This easier and has won 2/2 this circuit. Worth another chance. CHARMING CHEETAH (1) comes here off a last-start fifth, beaten 6 lengths, over 1200m at Turffontein Inside. Big run expected. TITAN OF THE TURF (5) is yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a spell, the latest when tenth over 1160m at Turffontein Standside after he was in the firing line on the turn. Safely held last time out but this easier and fitter for two runs in. Get chance to show form. CAPTAIN COOPER (6) is a last-start winner six weeks ago, scoring by 0.7 lengths over 1200m at this track. Has a win and one placing at this journey from four starts. One of the main contenders.

Third-up today. Resuming ran last of 9 at Turffontein Standside on July 11 over 1160m, 10 len behind Pumpkin Pie with 60.5kg at $11.
