Tuesday 30th June 2020
Vaal Turf
Race 9 – 16:40
1000m – Covid-19 National Crisis Helpline 0800 029 999 MR 80 Handicap
8 – Jozi Hustle
Trainer: Clinton Binda
Jockey: Diego De Gouveia
Wgt: 58.5kg
Draw: 15 (16 Runners)
Current Betting: 20/1
He disappointed last time out on his handicap debut and now returns from a 14 week absence for his first run back post lockdown. Diego De Gouveia jumps aboard and if reproducing that effort in his penultimate start, he should be a lot more competitive at this level.
Winning Form Comment: Rested 14 wks. Best MR:79. Poor effort last time. Returns from a break. Can improve.
16 – Blow Me Down
Trainer: Clinton Binda
Jockey: Reserve Runner
Wgt: 55.5kg
Draw: *
Current Betting: SP
An unlikely runner due to his 4th reserve status, we’ll need to see four withdrawals for him to have any chance of having a run here. With that said, the comeback run at the start of the month has brought him on nicely and when he does get a run, we’ll be expecting to see him earn a stake cheque.
Winning Form Comment: 2nd run after rest. Best MR:76. Had excuses in latest. Has a chance on best form shown.
