Jimmy The Rich writes Mike de Kock sends out Lyrical Dance in Race 6. She followed up her maiden win with a good third-place finish over this distance at the Vaal.
She stayed on nicely at the finish that day, but was reported to be fatigued post-race.
The daughter of Vercingetorix makes her Handicap debut this afternoon and from her good draw of four, she should be the one to beat.
Oyster King from the Chris Jonker stable takes his place in Race 4. He is much better than his last start as the jockey reported to be something amiss.
He has won once, finished second twice and third once from as many starts over this course and distance.
It is encouraging that S’manga Khumalo retains the ride and the combination may find themselves in the winner’s enclosure.
The false rail is 8m on the back straight to 10.5m on the bend, there is a 10.m spur at the 500m mark.
- The Bipot starts in the first at 13h10
- The Place Accumulator starts in the second at 13h45
- The Pick 6 starts in the third at 14h20
- Jackpot 1 starts in the fourth race at 14h55
