TOP BET

Race 1: SING AND DANCE(4)

Jockey: M Thackeray   - Trainer: D Sham

SING AND DANCE prefers racing beyond sprints and she found some good form in her last two starts. That said, she was 2nd best in both those efforts but her penultimate conqueror Glamorous Life has since won in Cape Town whilst her recent defeater What A Player finished a creditable 2nd in a subsequent feature outing. This bay filly is c & d suited and she is her stable's solitary entrant on the card.

Race 2: STORMY ECLIPSE(2)

Jockey: C Murray   - Trainer: Tara Laing

The grey gelding STORMY ECLIPSE has found his best form this campaign with his eye-catching effort in the Algoa Cup in his penultimate effort being the pick of those. He is 1kg out at the weights on the official ratings but is expected to relish this rise in distance and take some beating. 

Race 6: PACIFIC SPIRIT(2)

Jockey: G Cheyne  - Trainer: A Greeff

The Bremner yard has a quartet of entrants in this seven-horse party and naturally the stable holds a strong hand. PACIFIC SPIRIT could be the pick of the yard's runners after his eye-catching recent five furlong effort in stronger company on this course. He comfortably accounted for the speedy ARCTIC BLAST who will be pushed hard for the early lead by another Bremner inmate in the form of the lightly weighted VALENTINIK. 

Race 7: BOXLEY(1)

Jockey: G Cheyne - Trainer: A Greeff

The progressive BOXLEY has twice gone down narrowly after she landed the betting coup with an impressive debut victory on this course but she is best weighted here and can return to winning ways. The Greeff inmate coped well with this extra furlong when pipped by a Cape raider last month and she has cracked a good draw now.

VALUE BET

Race 4: OFF THE BIT(5)

Jockey: X Ndlovu - Trainer: A Greeff 

OFF THE BIT had an eye-catching last performance behind a hard-knocking handicapper from the Cape and he seems to have escaped with just the solitary pound penalty. He has won twice over today's extra furlong and is suited to this surface.
