PIERE STRYDOM [5000 th WINNER COUNTDOWN - 4988 WINNERS - 12 TO GO]

RACE 1

RIDE OF HONOUR is the form horse in the race. Looks hard to beat. ROUGE ET NOIR makes her debut. Watch the betting. RICH AROMA has done enough in four starts to suggest that she could earn something this afternoon. SENDINTHECLOWNS has steady form and good enough form for a money chance in this field. Weakens. ARROW IN FLIGHT makes her debut. Watch the betting.

1st – RIDE OF HONOUR (46/100 F) (10); 2nd – ROUGE ET NOIR (11); 3rd – RICH AROMA (3); 4th - SENDINTHECLOWNS (2); 5th – ARROW IN FLIGHT (7)

RACE 2

FINCHATTON made a fair enough debut last time. Will improve. GAISCE GOLD has been improving in his last two starts. RAMPANT ICE showed improvement in his second start last time. watch for further improvement. O'BRIEN THE LION showed pace on debut last time but weakened late. FOREST VIEW ran his best race in five last time when staying on. That was on sand though.

RACE 3

HAWKER HURRICANE ran on well on debut last time despite losing a few lengths at the start. Should be the one to beat if breaking on terms. MISS RAMBO has steady form. Should go close. WILD DANCER did not show last time. Has better form that her latest effort. MULBERRY BAY is a bit inconsistent but there has been some recent improvement. DREAM LOGIC can place at best but there could be some sudden improvement.

1st – HAWKER HURRICANE (5/10 F) (12); 2nd – MISS RAMBO (1); 3rd – WILD DANCER (2); 4th - MULBERRY BAY (3); 5th – DREAM LOGIC (11)

RACE 4

TOUGH TIGER has been improving and has a good shout if continuing with that improvement. VIKING CASTLE is never far back and stayed on last time. CEDAR WOOD ran his best race in seven last time. Don't ignore. FAIR DEAL was moderate on debut last time. Should have benefited from that run. ANTAGONIST improved by twenty lengths last time. Respect the improvement. 

1st – TOUGH TIGER (4/1) (1); 2nd – VIKING CASTLE (6); 3rd – CEDAR WOOD (357/100 F) (7); 4th - FAIR DEAL (12); 5th – ANTAGONIST (8)

RACE 5

SEATTLE TRADE ran an improved race last time despite racing wide into the straight. TROPHY WIFE ran on well in her post maiden last time despite losing ground at the start. WOODROSE drops in class and could benefit in this field. VIA DELLA TIGRE ran a decent post maiden race last time despite weakening late. STIRLING LEAVES will be running on and cannot be ignored in this class of field.

RACE 6

VERTICAL APPROACH ran in Gauteng for the first time and showed improvement, albeit on the sand. One to consider on that improvement shown. OAK HARBOUR won on debut last time. May repeat. MOON LAY HIDDEN ran well last time when running on after a slow start. COOL KID is unbeaten after two runs in Kimberley. This should be tougher. LONDON won her maiden this C & D last time. That was her fourth run. May need to confirm.

1st – VERTICAL APPROACH (66/10) (10); 2nd – OAK HARBOUR (2/1 F) (11); 3rd – MOON LAY HIDDEN (7); 4th - COOL KID (5); 5th – LONDON (4)

RACE 7

MOONLIT VENICE raced against far stronger in a feature in Durban last time. Good chance if not needing the run. THE ANGELUS has excellent form and shows very fast pace. Chance if holding on. MAAYAAT did not show in a feature this C & D last time. The drop in class should suit. Not to be ignored. DANCE CRITIC won her maiden at the fourth attempt last time. May need to confirm. WENSLEYDALE drops in class and has been weakening.

1st – MOONLIT VENICE (357/100) (4); 2nd – THE ANGELUS (5); 3rd – MAAYAAT (3/1 F) (6); 4th - DANCE CRITIC (10); 5th – WENSLEYDALE (1)

RACE 8

MAJI MOTO improved on the sand last time. Is eight years old and loves this distance. Outside chance of surprising but could be worth including in the exotics. GREASEPAINT was rewarded for consistency last time when finishing well to win. RIVER TRIP had his excuses last time. Chance on previous. SACRED GROUND drops in class. can place. ATSO TIME has been disappointing. Chance on earlier form.

1st – MAJI MOTO (20/1) (10); 2nd – GREASEPAINT (17/10 F) (3); 3rd – RIVER TRIP (7); 4th - SACRED GROUND (9); 5th – ATSO TIME (5)

RACE 9

CIAO-CIAO has done nothing wrong this far. He impressed on debut and has since run two very good post maidens. Watch for another good, if not winning run this afternoon. ENAAD ran a good post maiden last time against a far stronger field. Expect another good effort. TIGER WOULD has steady form and ran on in his last two starts. GREEK LEGEND won by six lengths on debut last time. That was on the sand. Stable companion, CAPTAIN COYOTE, won his maiden at the fifth on his last start. That was by eight lengths and also on sand.
