Top Bet For Today
Race 1: ENGLEFIELD GREEN (3)
Jockey: C Orffer – Trainer: W A Nel
ENGLEFIELD GREEN produced a decent debut effort over this C&D, seven weeks ago. She lost a length leaving the start, raced green and stayed on to finish fourth. It must be noted that multiple horses from that form line have come out and won since. The daughter of Gimmethegreenlight would have gained from the experience and with the natural improvement that is expected, she should be the one to beat.
Race 2: LET IT BE SAID (8)
Jockey: G van Niekerk – Trainer: J Snaith
LET IT BE SAID has shown good improvement in his last two starts. He may have cost himself winning last time as he over raced in the early stages. The son of Vercingetorix is a progressive type and if Grant van Niekerk is able to switch him off early, he should go one better.
Race 3: MASTEROFTHEDESER (8)
Jockey: A Domeyer – Trainer: C Bass-Robinson
MASTEROFTHEDESERT has shown good improvement in each of his outings to date. He received a bump leaving the start last time and finished off his race well. He would have come on from the run and should strip much fitter. The son of Master Of My Fate is a progressive type and in this field, he can shed his maiden tag.
Race 5: AMONG THE CLOUDS (3)
Jockey: G van Niekerk – Trainer: J Snaith
AMONG THE CLOUDS finished 0.75 lengths behind LICKETY SPLIT last time. She is 1.5kgs better off at the weights today and that should be enough for the tables to be turned. The daughter of Lancaster Bomber jumps from a good draw of three and can notch up her second-career victory.
Value Bet For Today
Race 9: CAPTAIN WEST (14)
Jockey: L Mxothwa – Trainer: B Crawford
CAPTAIN WEST was an easy winner when shedding his maiden tag over 1250m on this course. He showed good speed and won with a ton in hand. It must be noted that the horse that finished second that day has come out and won since. The son of One World takes on stronger but he is progressive and should be up to the task at hand. Luyolo Mxothwa is likely to use his early gate speed to overcome the wide draw and he may be hard to peg back.
