Race 1
Race Summary: ARVERNIAN GODDESS should have an outstanding chance of opening her account after finishing runner-up in all three starts so far. She has run well on both poly and turf but will need to overcome the widest stall. Another juvenile, SHEEZAROCKET, is open to any amount of improvement. She was well behind ARVERNIAN GODDESS when making her debut and could do a lot better in her second start having drawn in pole position. LIKE A BUTTERFLY was beaten in a close finish on poly debut but had HEAD GIRL just ahead and it could get close again. FANTASTIC WORLD is well bred, watch out.
Selections:
#10 Avernian Goddess, #5 Like A Butterfly, #4 Fantastic World, #3 Head Girl
Race 2
Race Summary: A Conditional Maiden and it could be tricky. But if ISORENDER repeats his last run he should go very close. He had things go wrong and was gaining nicely at the wire. BELLA'S PABLO hasn't done too badly in the Western Cape and could make good improvement on the poly being a son of William Longsword. Highveld raider HIGH QUEUE races for a yard that does well with its runners on the poly. He ran a fair race last time and if not in need of the run after a break could run well. NOTABLE was not disgraced over this trip last time and has been gelded. He can earn along with CASTLE MEY.
Selections:
#6 Bella's Pablo, #4 High Queue, #5 Isorender, #2 Notable
Race 3
Race Summary: ALLAROUNDTHEWORLD ran a fair race after a rest and stripping fitter should have a chance at the win. PORFIRIO finished 0,70 lengths ahead of him but it could get close at the revised terms. PORFIRIO is knocking hard at the door. NATIONAL DREAM showed signs of coming to hand and needs to be taken seriously. But along with EVENTIDOR, who ran an eye-catching race last time, is dropping in distance and will need the race run to suit. FISH EAGLE's last run is not a true reflection of his ability. He could improve dramatically from draw No 1. More have earning potential.
Selections:
#5 Allaroundtheworld, #2 Porfirio, #3 National Dream, #8 Eventidor
Race 4
Race Summary: Fillies and mares handicap and it may pay to go wide. SWISS PARADISE showed good pace before tiring out in her first run after a rest. The 1000m trip suits her better and she should have every chance this time. SWEET JULIA showed good resolve to win her maiden giving weight away. She has drawn well and could make a fair handicap debut. JANE'S VISION is knocking at the door and has many held on her runs behind rejuvenated Hereinafter. She could capture a well deserved second career victory. VISION OF WILL and BEADED GOWN (light weight) need to be respected on best form.
Selections:
#5 Swiss Paradise, #6 Jane's Vision, #1 Sweet Julia, #4 Vision Of Will
Race 5
Race Summary: If LOVE IN WINTER can hold his position from a decent gate could give NDAKA a hard time. He had to overcome the widest draw when beaten 3.40 lengths by the latter. NDAKA won in impressive fashion but is 4kg worse off and we could be headed for a thriller. It doesn't end there. ANOTHERDAYINAFRICA wasn't too far back and has a 4kg claim now. Could get closer. RHYTHM has shown good pace on turf and could be anything. But along with ONE TOO MANY (draw No 1) who is a course-and-distance specialist, is returning from a rest and may just need it. CHARA SANDS is not one to ignore.
Selections:
#10 Ndaka, #2 Love In Winter, #3 Rhythm, #1 One Too Many
Race 6
Race Summary: If PUFF OF SMOKE can repeat her last run when a promising second behind improving Miss Paget she could finally score on the poly. She has had 13 chances but she has drawn well and comes into the race in good form. PERFECT TRUST is another that run some decent races but hasn't had any luck here. It could be her day. FLYING THE STAR came back to form last time and gives the impression she could relish the distance. She must have the stamina on pedigree being by Flying The Flag out of a Silvano mare. MISS LIALAH is consistent and has drawn well. PRETTY ANALIA is overdue.
Selections:
#2 Puff Of Smoke, #6 Perfect Trust, #12 Flying The Star, #1 Miss Lialah
Race 7
Race Summary: MISTER NIBBLES showed that his poly debut was all wrong winning his second try easily. He did receive weight in what was a handicap but looks to have scope for good improvement. But it won't be easy. COUNT MARSH looks to be coming back to best and is hard to pass when in front. BRAVE VOYAGER lived up to his name fending off FATE OF FORTUNE but the latter was returning after more than six months off and could be the big improver this time. BRASS BELL has drawn well and has upset before. DEVILS AND DUST should be in the money on best form.
Selections:
#5 Mister Nibbles, #7 Fate Of Fortune, #6 Count Marsh, #1 Brass Bell
Race 8
Race Summary: BALLY MAGIC has won two out of his last three. In his penultimate start he couldn't get to the front and lost that one but could be hard to catch against the field he meets. Mare GLOBAL SECRET could make it tough as she has been known to duel it out up front but she is racing after a rest. VICTOR RAIL will enjoy a good pace and could be running on best. He looks to have wins in the tank but it is tough to know what is his best distance. ONE IRISH ROVER was backed in his recent starts and captured one of those races. He must be included along with QUICK STAR and FINAL DESTINY.
Selections:
#8 Bally Magic, #2 Global Secret, #9 Victor Rail, #7 One Irish Rover
Best Win: #10 ARVERNIAN GODDESS
Best Value Bet: #6 BELLA'S PABLO
Best Longshot: #6 BELLA'S PABLO
