TOP BET FOR TODAY
Race 3: FREEDOM OF SPEECH(3)
Jockey: W Kennedy - Trainer: G Kotzen
FREEDOM OF SPEECH has only had the two starts, but he was only caught in the shadow of the post in his last start over this c&d. A repeat of that effort would make him a very hard horse to beat here as the balance of the raced runners have little form to speak of. His main danger might therefore come from GO MAN GO who is an unraced Gimmethegreenlight gelding from the Willem Nel yard with S'manga Khumalo in the irons.
Race 5: ALSFLAMINGBEAUTY(2)
Jockey: R Fourie - Trainer: J Snaith
ALSFLAMINGBEAUTY has consistent form to her credit and has only finished out of the top three on one occasion from four starts over the c&d. She is re-united with stable jockey Richard Fourie and is sure to put in another honest performance.
Race 6: REBELS SPIRIT(5)
Jockey: B May - Trainer: G Puller
REBELS SPIRIT is a 5yr old mare taking on the boys, but she has consistent form to her name. She is the only ride on the day for Brandon May who seems to have struck up a solid partnership with her. She is sure to give the males a good run for their money.
Race 8: DUCHESS OF STATE(2)
Jockey: K De Melo - Trainer: C Bass-Robinson
The On The Scent formline features prominently in this race and whilst accepting that race was over seven furlongs and today's contest is over a mile, it should be a good pointer to the outcome of this event
VALUE BET FOR TODAY
Race 4: SPECTRA FORCE(2)
Jockey: M Byleveld- Trainer: RJHW Crawford
SPECTRA FORCE and FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT renew their rivalry this afternoon. The former beat the latter by 3.25L in their last clash over seven furlongs at this venue, but is 3.5kgs worse off at the weights, which should bring them closer together, but not enough for the result to be reversed. The pair are drawn alongside each other. That race was of course over seven furlongs and the drop in distance may yield a different outcome.
