Jan 2 South Africa (Turffontein) form analysis

RACE 1 (1,400M) (1) DYLAN'S CHAMP would not be winning out of turn after finishing second in three consecutive appearances, all over further. He need not improve much over this shorter trip with Piere Strydom aboard to open his account. Fillies (8) AMANATTO, (9) GERBERA and (10) GREGARIOUS receive a handy 3kg sex allowance, so should make life difficult for the selection, especially with this extended trip likely to unlock improvement.

RACE 2 (1,400M) (2) KING OF NUMBERS won a nice race over the same course and distance on Dec 28. He can double up if he takes place in this line-up. (1) GUERILLA WARFARE has the form and experience to be competitive in this. Veteran hard-knocker (5) CALL ME MASTER fits a similar profile and represents an attractive betting proposition in his peak outing over this extended trip after eye-catching thirds in consecutive recent starts over 1,200m. (4) FALCON STRIKE and (8) CARNELO should also acquit themselves competitively.
