Turffontein Inside today 12/02/2026 - Just a few

Race 1 - Ubermensch (1/1) - Narrowly went down to stablemate, Master Spy, who runs off a MR 84, later today, when quietly fancied last time out. Second favorite, Lance Alot, was well beaten in his last two runs and seems to need further.

Race 2 - Power of Pearls (2/1) was just beaten by Loveable, who has form behind now two-time winner Tintin, last time out. The form of that race isn't strong at all, but I feel she has shown enough to win today even with the step up in trip. Hot Cocoa made a good return from a rest two weeks ago and could challenge if fit enough and overcoming a draw of 8 out of 10.  

Race 4 - Buddy Boy (5/2) has been close up in his last two runs and should get it right today. Blinkers fitted, step up in trip should suit.

Saturday's Winning Form previews

Durbanville  

and Turffontein

Three for Turffontein on Saturday

R4 Scorpio at around 3/1, saw this ones last run, yard were very confident but found one too good. Was returning from a break though and Computaform comment says Resp Noise, compression mask today might do the trick

R5 Sunset Riot at around 7/1. Highly tried early in career and was in WCP in Jan but just for one race which looks an ok run. Last time out nothing special but now second run on Highveld and third after a break, big runner on pick of form

R6 Mocha Frappe at around 7/2, consistent, has been running against stronger and well drawn, Murray Up and just changed hands in ownership to DJ Jazzy who is a shrewd operator.

R7 Not sure where to go in the feature, Fire Attack best in and C&D suited and Olivia's Way also has form in wet (good to soft right now with chance of rain). However Fire Attack could be on a mission for the Premiers in early April so might not be fully wound up. Lucky's Willy Meet Again also alive. Good race but I'm battling to side with anything

Pushed for time, will have a glance at Durbanville card if poss.

Play well guys
 

and then one at Durbanville, R6 All Is Green at around 11/2, excuses last time, saddle slip on comeback run, 2 wins both came over 1000m  Zackey riding for Ennion interesting too. MR has been sliding

T8 - Lead The Charge @ 12.5/1 ew

MR continues to drop and on his day was running against the best not long ago. 

T9 - Spy Story @ 28/1 ew

 Big price here for a horse that was always close up other than last 2 runs. Jock rode a good race on him last time aboard. 

Sunset Riot and South's Lead the Charge each way play landed Saturday, racing is from Scottsville on Sunday but I'm heading out so will leave this one. Some Winning Form picks  are available here

Nice stuff yesterday Chris and Southpaw.

I like the following today:

Race 2 - Taylor's Version (3/1) was fancied when running 4.3l behind stable companion, South of France last time out. She has decent form over 1400m and looks a solid bet from gate 2. Favorite, Spirit of Shimla, has been costly to follow. Another Cape visitor, Greek Heiress, could be the one for swingers with TV. 

Race 3 - Day Two (11/10) was narrowly beaten over C&D last time out. Banker for me. 

Race 8 - Madison Valley (9/2) is the class of the race and has run well over this distance before. Should fight it out with the ultra consistent Dylan's Champ (7/1). Swingers MV x DC

Race 9 - Following the money on Tirpitz, 20/1 in to 12/1 currently. Well drawn, E/W can't hurt. 

Race 10 - Dapper (11/1) is a consistent earner who has good form over distance and another nice E/W bet.
