Race Tip

SPECIAL AL (14) debuted a month ago when he finished eighth over 5¾f at Turffontein Standside, beaten 12 lengths. Better for the run and can improve sharply. NARETOI (1) fought on for second last start over 1m1f at this track, making it three minor placings in a row. Finds a suitable race and can go on to take this out. THOONSIL (9) resumes from a lay-off of ten weeks and looked close to a win before that break, finishing off with a minor placing over 1m2f at this track. Expect he has come on over the break. Leading player on best figures - bold showing expected. EMERALD CITY (8) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 0. 8 lengths away in second over 1m4f at this track. Finds a suitable race and can fill another top-three spot.
