Race 1
Race Summary: ICONIC WINTER has been consistent without winning so far. She makes her local debut trying the Polytrack and does look the one to be with. HOLLY'S KISS needed her debut and could show vast improvement trying this surface. OCEAN FLAME was touched off on local debut and should be right there at the finish once again. PRICELESS TREASURE has been consistent and can contest the finish yet again. FIVE STAR MAGIC returns from a lengthy break but could play a minor role. MIDNIGHT MUSIC is course and distance suited and could earn some money.
Selections:
#1 Iconic Winter, #4 Ocean Flame, #5 Priceless Treasure, #6 Five Star Magic
Race 2
Race Summary: ENCHANTING CHOICE is unbeaten in three starts for trainer Alan Greeff and was particularly impressive on the Polytrack last time out. She is not weighted to win but should do so. SPLICETHEMAINBRACE has not been at her best of late but is unbeaten in two starts on this surface and should be right there at the finish. MONTELENA is holding her form and should earn some more money. UNCONQUERABLE LADY has shown improvement of late and has a place chance. STATE SECRET is consistent but tackles stronger. VULCANITE needed her local debut and is weighted to win if finding her best form.
Selections:
#2 Enchanting Choice, #1 Splicethemainbrace, #4 Montelena, #5 Unconquerable Lady
Race 3
Race Summary: RED LHASA was well beaten on a soft track last time out. She makes her local debut and it may well be a winning one. PROLIFIC STAR has been consistent of late and can contest the finish once again. BOMBER BAY is better than his last run would suggest and is threatening to win a race. CLIFFIE CLAVIN was touched off last time and could go one better. GREY WARRIOR is probably better on the turf but is a blinker strike and has Richard Fourie in the irons. KLEIN JAN has only had the two starts and is capable of improvement.
Selections:
#8 Red Lhasa, #2 Bomber Bay, #3 Cliffie Clavin, #1 Prolific Star
Race 4
Race Summary: TERMINAL VELOCITY makes her local debut and may well prove better than these rivals. GLOBAL SCENE struggled last week but is better than that run would suggest and can make the frame. AM STILL WINNING did not show her best last week and has a place chance in this line-up. The same can also be said of WELSH STARLET. GOLDEN CROC is threatening to win a race and should fight out the finish. LADY PENNY has a place chance in this line-up.
Selections:
#1 Terminal Velocity, #5 Golden Croc, #2 Global Scene, #3 Am Still Winning
Race 5
Race Summary: A change of trainer seems to have done EPIKLEROS the world of good. She has some solid wins of late and has every chance of completing a hat-trick. FLIGHT DISPLAY is at her best on this surface and was an easy winner last time out. She can contest the finish yet again. ONE RELIGION has been consistent of late and has Richard Fourie riding her so would not be a surprise winner. HONORABLE MEMBER is clearly a difficult filly to win with but she is very consistent and can get involved with the finish yet again.
Selections:
#2 Epikleros, #1 Flight Display, #7 Honorable Member, #5 One Religion
Race 6
Race Summary: An interesting race. WINTER EMERALDS is unbeaten in two starts in the Polytrack. Both those wins were easy and he may well win again. DOWSER gives his rivals weight but he does like this surface and can go close to winning. GREEN MANDARIN showed what he is capable of with a comfortable win last time out but he will need to show he is as good on this surface. LAGUNA VERDE showed improvement last time out and has a place chance. MAKHACHEV seems better than his last run would suggest. ONE SCOTCH and DYNALLEY both like this surface and could be dangers. KINGDOM OF HEAVEN is in good form and clearly not out of it
Selections:
#4 Winter Emeralds, #7 One Scotch, #8 Dynalley, #9 Kingdom Of Heaven
Race 7
Race Summary: CHERRY OH BABY was not beaten far on local debut. She will be fitter this time and can score. MARSHMALLOW is not reliable but is capable of winning a race like this. SPOIL YOURSELF quickened nicely to win her latest start and could follow up this shorter distance. GENOVEFA, PENNY'S WORLD and THREAD OF LIFE are all capable of better than they showed last time out and could earn some money. ICE CAP and POMODORO MAGIC might be worth throwing in large Pick 6 permutations.
Selections:
#2 Cherry Oh Baby, #4 Spoil Yourself, #1 Marshmallow, #5 Genovefa
Race 8
Race Summary: A tricky race. TEEREX makes his local debut. He has been consistent of late and could score. WORDSWORTH has a tricky draw to overcome but is consistent and can earn some money. HOSPICES DE BEAUNE is not consistent but is capable of winning. LUCKY SPIRIT and RAVILIOUS have both been in good form of late and would not be surprise winners. THE ROARING ROCK is still improving and has claims in this line-up. WAR LAUNCH is back in form and is also capable of scoring.
Selections:
#12 Teerex, #14 War Launch, #5 The Roaring Rock, #4 Ravilious
Best Win: #2 ENCHANTING CHOICE
Best Value Bet:
Best Longshot: #12 TEEREX
