Tuesday's South Africa (Vaal) preview

RACE 1 (1,000M)

(1) ROLLWITHTHEPUNCHES finished 3/4 lengths in front of filly (2) BELLA CHICA on their debut meeting. Bella Chica has won subsequently and they meet on identical terms. He should confirm.

Watch debutante (9) SOCIAL IMAGE. She could be anything and can win first-up .

RACE 2 (1,000M)

(9) ALEX THE GREAT was caught late last start and could make amends.

(4) MR HUGO is coming to form.

(11) SNOW IN SEATTLE, a seven-time winner, could finish strongly.

RACE 3 (2,400M)

(7) RATION MY PASSIONwas slightly disappointing last time. She should get back on track if allowed to stride freely in front.

RACE 7 (1,450M)
