T

MR100 HANDICAP at Vaal on Tuesday Nine well subscribed races make up the Vaal Tuesday programme where veteran jockey Andrew Fortune will be aiming to peg one or two back on new national log leader Greg Cheyne. Pivotal Pursuit could be one of Fortune’s better rides when he lines up in the day’s topliner.

he Australian-bred Pivotal Pursuit lumbers top weight in the R125 000 MR 100 Handicap over the Vaal straight outside track. The seasoned Fortune gets the best out of the 7yo who is aiming for his eighth career win. He has run two top-class races over 40m shorter and is likely to appreciate this 1200m and will be running on late. His close up effort to the top-class Trip To Heaven at his penultimate start catches the eye. The Silvano gelding Silver Scooter has not

been at his best recently but on his best earlier form would be a factor, although it is on the short side for him.

Seattle Lady

Johan Janse van Vuuren’s Seattle Lady is the only member of the fairer sex in this field. The daughter of Sail From Seattle is all heart and takes on the boys again after a good win going away under Frankie Dettori on the Air Mauritius International Jockeys Challenge raceday. She looks quite competitive under her

52,5kgs as she steps up in class. The 6yo Morpheus pulled up distressed after running a 2,50 length third to CaptainOfMyHeart last time out. The four-time winning Amazing Strike has good course and distance form and tried extra ground with no progress again at his last start. Cont. p.2
