Cost: R225.00
Race 1
JAGUAR GREY is a 3yr old filly taking on the boys, but she has consistent formlines to her name. She finished second over six furlongs, beaten just 1.5L last time out when returning from a 22-week break. She steps up to seven furlongs, but she is sure to enjoy the extra ground and looks to be the one that they all have to beat. KAZKAZI just failed to catch the winner when running on strongly last time out over 1300M. He is another who will enjoy the step up in trip. ANGEL WHISPER has cracked pole position and put up a solid comeback effort over 1300M on his return after a 19-week rest. OCEAN CANDY is a 4yr old filly who has a wide draw, but on the plus side, she gets blinkers fitted for the first time and will get 3kgs taken off her back thanks to her claiming apprentice.
Race 2
Three 3yr old fillies look to dominate the finish here and they could complete the trifecta. AMELIA’S CONTRAIRE followed up her penultimate victory over six furlongs with a solid effort next time over 1100M. MIAMI MOON has only had the two runs to date, but she showed some improvement second time out over 1100M. She should have no problem with the drop back to five furlongs. RUBIC ROSE showed marked improvement last time out over five furlongs. She gets a set of blinkers fitted for the first time and will get 3kg removed from her allocated weight courtesy of her claiming apprentice. WARFISH was a tad disappointing last time out when going the six furlongs. He drops back to the five furlongs here and should do better as a result.
Race 3
As with the previous race, fillies/mare should lead the pack home and this time the quartet could be their mission. MISS CONTEKI has only had the two runs, winning on debut over 1100M and then following that up with a 2.7L second-place finish over six furlongs. The drop in trip is sure to be to her liking. INDIGO WILD is drawn the widest of them all, but she is a speedy sort who will use her early gate speed to get across as quickly as she can. PARIS GIRL’S last two runs over six furlongs have been a bit below par, but she drops back to five furlongs and should be involved in the finish here. ROCK THE PLANET finished second last time out over this c&d and from her gate four, she should be respected in this line-up.
Race 4
BARTRADER is seldom too far behind the action and a repeat of his penultimate effort over the c&d would make him a big runner here. He looks the value in the race, despite a wide draw. Although FINGERMARK finished eighth in his last outing over seven furlongs, he was just 1.7L behind the winner. That was his first run after a 23week break. BOMBARDMENT has consistent formlines to his credit and did finish 1.3L behind the winner in his penultimate outing over the c&d. He is drawn the widest, but he should be doing his best work late. YULONG EARTH may have found the mile of his last start just too far and he should appreciate the drop back in distance, a fact supported by his head beating in his penultimate outing over the c&d.
Race 5
This looks to be a boat race between the top two selections, with the slight preference going to FAIREDU who is a 4yr old filly taking on males. Her last two runs over seven furlongs have been solid, winning the latest by one and a half lengths. From her mid-field draw, she should put in another honest performance here. LUKE’S CHOICE looks to be her immediate danger after he showed good improvement over a mile last time out. BLITZ ‘EM BOOTZ is a 4yr old filly whose last effort over seven furlongs was a tad disappointing, but if she is able to reproduce her effort three runs back over a mile, she would have some sort of chance here. GOOD FORTUNE is a 5yr old mare who finished fourth in her last outing over seven furlongs and could be worth a look.
Race 6
SKY FIVE has consistent formlines to his name. He steps up in trip, but was staying on well in his last outing over nine furlongs and should enjoy going the extra distance. WILD GALAH has solid staying form, having finished third in his last two runs, the latest when just 0.7L behind the winner over 2100M. ONCE WERE LOST has a wide draw to overcome, but he was only 1.2L behind the winner when finishing fourth over 2100M last time out. GALIBA is a 4yr old filly taking on the boys. She takes a steep rise in distance, but would have a say in the finish if taking to the trip.
Race 7
PLATINUM BULLET is a 3yr old filly taking on the boys, but she likes to race up with the pace and showed good fighting spirit when just a head back last time out over five furlongs. KEEPER’S TALE is a 6yr old mare who has finished second in her last two starts over six furlongs and will be hoping to go one better today. DENIM PACK returns from a 13-week rest. He had consistent form before the break and has pulled pole position. In addition, he will have a full 4kgs removed from his back for the services of his claiming apprentice. ERISTIC goes for his hat-trick here and although he has a wideish draw to contend with, the trio of wins is not out of the question.
Race 8
SCHOOLHOUSE ROCK has his hat-trick attempt here and although the first two victories were recorded with under a length margins, he is not without a chance of achieving his goal here. JARMAN is seldom far off the action and is sure to put in another solid performance in this line-up. SPEEDY MISS is a 4yr old filly taking on males. She finished third, just 0.6L behind the winner last time out over six furlongs and will be aided by having 3kgs taken off her allocated weight thanks to her claiming apprentice. GOKU has a poor draw but did not appear to enjoy going seven furlongs last time out and should prefer the drop back to six furlongs.
Race 9
BLANKENBERGE is a 4yr old filly taking on males, but she was only just denied her hat-trick last time out over this distance by 0.7L. From draw five, she will be looking to bounce back to winning ways here. ROUTE EIGHTY EIGHT has solid form to his name and will jump from pole position. He looks a big threat to the former. STAR GLITTER is drawn one outside the latter and drops in trip after his surprise win last time out over six furlongs. If he is able to confirm that effort he should be considered here. FOXY ROYALE is a 7yr old mare who improved in her latest outing over the c&d and who has drawn gate three. She will have a 3kg claiming apprentice in the irons today and is not without a chance in this field.
