Nov 28 South Africa (Vaal) form analysis

(1) PRETTY PRECIOUS showed speed before tiring late on her Highveld debut, after a break following her relocation from the Western Cape. She would have tightened up with the benefit of that comeback outing and appeals to most of the raced runners.

(10) GIMME A STORM need not be special to make his presence felt on debut. Watch the betting.

(7) INTRO has finished runner-up three times over this distance and should be a factor again if she can confirm the improvement of her last start.

(11) TOUCH OF HEAVEN did not go unnoticed on debut and ought to improve with that experience to count on.

(7) JOOST DROOCHSLOOT was backed on debut when a fast-finishing second over 1,450m. He is open to any amount of improvement on his reappearance after a gelding operation.

(3) DYLAN'S CHAMP has improved in two starts after he was gelded and has race fitness on his side.

(1) GAMER has the experience to acquit himself competitively but is vulnerable to less-exposed rivals like (8) MAJALUN.
