Race 6: DHABYAAN(11)

Jockey: Calvin HABIB - Trainer: Mike De Kock

The de Kock inmate DHABYAAN has been a revelation since the gelding and he eventually pegged back the game NORLAND (1.5kgs better off) over this c & d at a slightly lesser level two weeks ago. The four-year-old was upped seven pounds for his exertions but he has clearly got his career back on track and should continue to progress.

Race 7: ALL AT ONCE(4)

Jockey: Craig ZACKEY - Trainer: Lucky HOUDALAKIS

The day's topliner is a highly competitive Listed sprint which sees the fast improving ALL AT ONCE renew her rivalry with the high-class former Grade 1 winner MIGHTY HIGH. Of course the former found extra to beat the latter by three parts of a length over this c & d last month and the pair clash on similar weight terms here, though the top selection is best weighted on official ratings.

TOP BET FOR TODAY

Race 8: ORAVAR(8)

Jockey: Kabelo MATSUNYANE - Trainer: Mike/Adam AZZIE

The blinkers worked a charm for the consistent and improving four-year-old ORAVAR who trounced his handicap rivals over this c & d two weeks ago. He was expectedly raised the maximum eight pounds for his effort but the progressive son of Oratorio still has much more to offer and his conditioner has engaged the services of an in-form 4kgs claiming apprentice in this higher company today.

Race 9: PRINCESS LOMITA(15)

Jockey: Raymond DANIELSON - Trainer: Alec LAIRD

The daughter of Silvano, PRINCESS LOMITA was unfancied when she ran on strongly for 2nd on her promising debut over seven furlongs behind Greener Pastures (good 2nd in assessment company next time out) on this track last month. She finished exactly four lengths clear of the next placed entrant and would have come on appreciably from the experience. The bay filly represents an in-form yard and she should relish the extra furlong on her pedigree.

VALUE BET

Race 3: THREE DOG NIGHT(12)

Jockey: Hennie GREYLING - Trainer: Weiho MARWING

THREE DOG NIGHT enjoyed the slight rise in distance when he made decent late progress from a wide draw over seven furlongs in his second outing. He was comfortably beaten by the 3rd placed runner GOLD LIGHTNING that day but should relish the mile on pedigree & he jumps from a much kinder draw this time around.
