Race 4: OLIVIA’S WAY (7)
Jockey: J R Syster – Trainer: R Magner
OLIVIA’S WAY won a good race in her last start over this C&D. She ran on powerfully to get the better of Linganomore. It must be noted that multiple horses from that form line have come out and won since. She does take on stronger, but is a filly with ability and she carries a handy galloping mass of 53kgs. The daughter of Pathfork can follow up with another victory.
Race 5: ONE RELIGION (3)
Jockey: G Lerena – Trainer: R Magner
ONE RELIGION stayed on nicely at the finish over 1400m last time but found one too good in the form of Risky Business. The daughter of Silvano finished second in her only attempt over this distance. She would have come on from her last outing and should strip much fitter. In this type of field, she can go one better.
Race 6: AMERICAN REBEL (2)
Jockey: M Yeni – Trainer: W Marwing
AMERICAN REBEL ran a decent race when third over 2000m on this course last time. He lost two lengths leaving the start, but stayed on to finish third. He has finished third in both his efforts on this course. The son of Rebel King takes a drop in class and if getting away to a clean start, he should be right there.
Race 7: GREEN FLASH (4)
Jockey: G Lerena – Trainer: B Warren
GREEN FLASH won a good race in her last start over this C&D. The manner in which she quickened up and won going away was encouraging. She received a six-pound penalty for that victory. Gavin Lerena retains the ride and she can notch up her fourth-career victory.

Race 8: IN THE ETHER (5)
Jockey: P Mxoli – Trainer: G Maroun
IN THE ETHER was doing her best work late when third over this distance last time. She has won once, finished second once and third twice from eight starts over this C&D. The 6yo mare is back against her own sex. Philasande Mxoli returns to the saddle and she will be mowing down the frontrunners.
