Nov 14 South Africa (Turffontein) form analysis
-
RACE 1 (1,500M) It could pay to follow the progress of (9) MIST IN IRELAND who does not have to improve a great deal with the benefit of an encouraging debut outing.
(10) PRAIRIE SPRING is worth a market check and any betting support for this debutant has to be taken seriously.
(4) KHICHDI and (2) SPY STORY have the form and experience to play leading roles.
RACE 2 (1,600M) Hard-knockers (1) SAFE SPACE and (5) WHISPERS OF WAR are consistent performers who will be competitive off their current marks.
Progressive last-start winner (2) POTBERRIE is open to further improvement over this extended trip.
(6) HONORABLE MEMBER should play a role if building on the progress of his most recent outings.
RACE 3 (1,200M) (1) VIBE SA has been costly to follow but would not be winning out of turn after finishing second in six of his eight starts. However, his race readiness after a 133-day layoff raises a question.
