VAAL CLASSIC TUESDAY 24 FEB 2026

Angel's Oasis 7/2 in the last looks worth a nibble for me , yard coming to form , third run after rest and looks ready to win , will try a few doubles with this 

Race 3 : Crimson clover 8/1 , this horse should love the step up to 1400m and looks the value in an open race

Going to also include Craig two horses in a yankee

Alston Ndlizana. Could win races 3,4,5
In race 3 spies 1st timer Cover Charge priced up favorite
Race 1 Peters yard has strong hand is 5 horse field
Race 2 Star Blaze short price fav. Small field . Empress Wu might be the upset
Race 6 Rafa Bay magic Tatoo Mover and shaker . difficult to split
Race 7 Precocious big MR jump. probably only has to beat Bosum Buddy
Race 8 Taking a risk beat Stoneywood over 1000 . may be better than last run in feature race.

I have added Tarry runners to my P6 and PA

Small fields equals small dividends - not a very exciting card 

R1: Mrs Stormiatrix looks hard to beat

R2: Star Blaze also looks hard to beat

R3: More open - of the raced runners Dear Doc is the right one, but not drawn ideally (even with 3 scratchings); first-timers Cover Charge and Highway Code in the betting, while Crimson Clover has a good draw and should improve; jockey arrangements and form say Ehhfifteenkjoe should be held by Dear Doc

R4: Blood of Eden overdue, but that last run was not great  and the rest of the field looks closely matched (bar Over Sensible) at the weights ....

R5: Vixeninthevineyard also looks overdue and perhaps Bling can bring her home; War Talk with a more patient ride the danger

R6: Competitive 6-horse field; I fancied TwentyTwentyVIsion at the weights, but the stable recekons she might need the run; not the worst idea to take the field in the P6

R7: Precocious to be followed until beaten; Plumbago Park looks better over 1000, so should chase her home; Maverick Queen and Bosom's Buddy probably next best.

R8: I think Blindfire is overdue from a good draw; Angel's Oasis probably better over 1200 with Time For Charity, plenty of others like Oriental Bouquet, Queen's Pact, In The Ether and Taking A Risk (better 1000, and in a weaker field) make this competitive

Enjoy
