Vaal Tips on September 12th - Best Bets and Predictions

I AM REGAL raced from a handy position over this distance on the Classic course last time, but found one too good in the form of Indian Ocean. The daughter of Canford Cliffs takes a drop in class and with Muzi Yeni retaining the ride, she should notch up her fourth-career victory.

ALABAMA ANNA has consistent form lines to her credit. She has won twice and finished second once from four starts over this C&D. The 6yo mare drops back in class and she may be hard to peg back.

BLACK EGRET was running on when fifth in the Listed Umngeni Handicap over 1000m at Hollywoodbets Greyville last time. It must be noted that the form of that race has been franked. He has won three times, finished second twice and third twice from nine starts over this distance. Piere Strydom is booked to ride and he will be mowing down the frontrunners.

WILLOWILD was given a peach of a ride when winning her last start over 1500m on this course. She was slow into stride but got up where it matters most. It must be noted that multiple horses from that form line have come out and won since. The daughter of One World takes on stronger, but she has scope and should be up to the task at hand. 

PURPLENINJATURTLE‘S last two starts have been good. He stayed on well when third over this C&D last time. The son of Time Thief is having his peak run today and in this line-up, he should take a power of beating.
