TOP BET
Race 3: HEMMINGWAY(5)
Jockey: Aldo DOMEYER - Trainer: Willem A NEL
HEMMINGWAY was fancied when he produced a high class debut in soft conditions over this c & d five weeks ago. The well-bred Silvano colt was slow into stride but recovered smartly and was beaten a short head into 2nd at the line. That formline hasn't amounted to much but he is entitled to have improved and should make natural progress today
Race 4: KNOW THE ROPES(2)
Jockey: Aldo DOMEYER - Trainer: Willem A NEL
KNOW THE ROPES made the expected improvement when caught late in a decent line-up over a mile recently and the lightly raced four-year old has her peak outing today. She was equipped with blinkers for the first time that day and should easily cope with this shorter trip with the headgear back on today. There will be further progress to come from the daughter of Sail From Seattle.
Race 5: LEAGUE GAME(7)
Jockey: Richard FOURIE - Trainer: Glen KOTZEN
LEAGUE GAME made his debut experience count when showing decent improvement in a field of winners over seven furlongs late last campaign. The Horse Chestnut colt was making steady progress when 5th that day and the runner-up Think Twice boosted the formline with a subsequent victory. The extra furlong and the drop in class will suit the Glen Kotzen inmate perfectly and there should be heaps of progress to come. His conditioner will have a good line to work with as their charge Tripple Explosion account- ed for most of today's rivals earlier this month.
Race 6: TWO BROTHERS(1)
Jockey: Richard FOURIE - Trainer: Adam MARCUS
The Nordic Chant formline could dominate the outcome of this competitive affair and the four-year old TWO BROTHERS will be aided by a stronger jockey today. The well-related Trippi gelding shifted sharply at a crucial stage when running on for 4th over the mile in the above-mentioned event and today's extra furlong should be right up his alley. He jumps from a good draw and is his conditioner's only runner on the day.
VALUE BET FOR TODAY
Race 7: FIRE WALKER(9)
Jockey: Piet BOTHA - Trainer: Glen PULLER
The speedy FIRE WALKER was slightly disappointing when perhaps unsuited to yielding conditions earlier this month. His easy penultimate victory over subsequent conqueror NORTHERN CORNER shows his true potential and the Rock Of Rochelle gelding could be a different proposition on desired ground today. Of course the runner-up of his last start Cuban Emerald produced an excellent subsequent winning display which boosts the formline.
