There are nine races at the Vaal today, with the 12h40.first off at 12h10.
The Bipot starts in the second at 12h40.
The false rail is set at zero with no spur. It is 7m in from the 1600m inside rail with a 7m spur at 600m mark.
Sean Tarry – could have a good day
Sean Tarry has suggested that Someone’s Secret (15) in the fourth race is expected to improve. The daughter of Duke Of Marmalade steps up from her 120m debut to the mile today.
Tarry’s best on the day looks to be Mythical Bolt who is now back on the Highveld after his Cape summer campaign and will be lining up in the eighth, an MR 83 Handicap over 1200m. In his last race in the Cape, Tarry ran the colt in blinkers and he will be running with them again.
He looks to be the horse with most room for improvement and hopefully, now back at altitude, he can pick up his second win. Lyle Hewitson, who last rode Mythical Bolt when he won his maiden, is back aboard.
