Top Bet For Today
Race 1: DANISH DYNAMITE (1)
Jockey: C Zackey – Trainer: G Smith
DANISH DYNAMITE produced a promising debut effort over 1000m on this course. She showed speed and tried hard all the way to the line. It must be noted that the horse that finished third that day has come out and won since. The daughter of Erik The Red would have gained from the experience and will love the rise to 1200m. With the natural improvement that is expected, she should take a power of beating.
Race 2: WILD APPLAUSE (1)
Jockey: M Yeni – Trainer: J Snaith
WILD APPLAUSE hails from the visiting Justin Snaith stable. She should have finished closer to the winner last time as she hung in the final 300m. She finished under a length behind the winner over this distance in her penultimate run. Muzi Yeni retains the ride and if putting her mind on the task at hand, she should find herself in the winner’s enclosure.
Race 6: MERCANTOUR (1)
Jockey: R Fourie – Trainer: A Greeff
MERCANTOUR was an easy winner of his last start over 1200m on the polytrack. It must be noted that the form of that race has been franked. The son of Var is at his best over shorter, but he is the class horse in this race and can follow up with another victory.
Race 7: GIMME’S LASSIE (4)
Jockey: C Zackey – Trainer: G Smith
GIMME’S LASSIE ran on strongly after a slow start to win her last outing over 1200m, on this course. The removal of the blinkers did the trick on the daughter of Gimmethegreenlight. She has finished second twice and third once from five starts over this distance. If getting away to a clean start, she may find herself in the winner’s enclosure once again.
Value Bet For Today
Race 8: VOLARE E MAMBO (5)
Jockey: S Khathi – Trainer: D McKenzie
VOLARE E MAMBO has had no luck when it comes to barrier positions. She has faced strong opposition in her last two starts, the latest of which was over this distance on the polytrack. It must be noted that the horse that finished third that day has come out and won since. The daughter of Mambo In Seattle finished third in her only C&D attempt. She drops in class, is likely to be settled near the rear of the field and will be mowing down the frontrunners.
