Race 1: WARRIOR OF ROYALTY (7)
Jockey: R Khathi – Trainer: N Kotzen
WARRIOR OF ROYALTY produced an eye-catching debut effort over 1100m on this course. He understandably raced green, but moved up well and fought hard all the way to the line. He found plenty of betting support that day which suggests that he was showing good work back at home. The son of Pathfork would have gained from the experience and can go one better.
Race 2: REACH FORTHE STARS (11)
Jockey: S Moodley – Trainer: M Miller
REACH FORTHE STARS produced a promising debut effort over this distance at Hollywoodbets Greyville. He was reported to have cast a shoe in running that day. It must be noted that multiple horses from the form line have come out and won since. The son of Gimmethegreenlight would have strengthened up during his time off the track and with the natural improvement that is expected, he should be the horse to beat.
Race 3: SLEEK AS SILK (1)
Jockey: S Hlengwa – Trainer: P Lafferty
SLEEK AS SILK was given a peach of a ride when winning her last start over 1750m on this course. She finished third in her only attempt over this distance. Apprentice Siphesihle Hlengwa takes the 2.5kgs off her back and she can follow up.
Race 6: AFRICAN SKYLINE (9)
Jockey: A Mgudlwa – Trainer: G Puller
AFRICAN SKYLINE has very good consistent form lines to his credit. He moved up like a winner in the Non-Black Type Marula Sprint last time, but was touched off by Captain Fontane. He has won once, finished second three times and third once from as many starts over this distance. He will be at peak fitness and with 53kgs on his back, he should be the one to beat.

Race 8: HARLEY’S FATE (3)
Jockey: R Khathi – Trainer: N Kotzen
HARLEY’S FATE showed some good signs of a form return in her last start against male company. She finished 1.6 lengths behind MORGAN LA FAY, three runs ago. She is 4kgs better off at the weights today and that should be enough for the tables to be turned. The daughter of Master Of My Fate won her maiden on this course and she can return to winning ways.
