Betting supplied by MBet

RACE 1:

A tricky first race. A number of first timers. Keep an eye on the betting. MINNAROOM makes his debut. ROCK OF VICTORY made a good debut three runs back but shown nothing in his last two. Experience could be a factor. ORIENTAL TIGER makes his debut. JOHN IN FLIGHT made a moderate debut last time. More to do. VELOCITY DOT COM may improve more.

1st -  MINNAROOM (3); 2nd - ROCK OF VICTORY (5); 3rd - ORIENTAL TIGER (4); 4th - JOHN IN FLIGHT (1); 5th - VELOCITY DOT COM (7)

RACE 2:

CROWN OF GOLD has improved markedly since moving to PE. The drop in class will suit as well. DRILL SARGENT has his issues but it always worth considering. TAARISH would finish much closer were he not to lose ground at the start. EMERALD ALBERT has more to do this division. MASAI WARRIOR has poor form but drops in class.

1st -  CROWN OF GOLD (1); 2nd - DRILL SARGENT (2); 3rd - TAARISH (3); 4th - EMERALD ALBERT (6); 5th - MASAI WARRIOR (4)

RACE 3:

SHIRAZ CABERNET has run three times and has finished second in all three. Good chance on that form. NANCY'S DESIRE made a fair debut last time. More to find. Watch the betting on the first timer, AIR BELLE. HASTY KITTEN was moderate on debut. May improve. MISS MUFF was a distant fourth on debut last time. Could improve.

1st -  SHIRAZ CABERNET (10); 2nd - NANCY'S DESIRE (8); 3rd - AIR BELLE (1); 4th - HASTY KITTEN (3); 5th - MISS MUFF (7)

RACE 4:

TAKETOTASK showed potential on debut last time. Expect improvement this afternoon. SUN NEVER SETS has been very close up in his last three. Looks to have a smart chance. PLAIN OF WISDOM cast a shoe in running last time. Can make amends. SEVEN ROSES ran his best race in five when finishing very well. BLUE BOY weakened late last time but that was too his best run in five.

1st -  TAKETOTASK (14); 2nd - SUN NEVER SETS (3); 3rd - PLAIN OF WISDOM (1); 4th - SEVEN ROSES (2); 5th - BLUE BOY (4)

RACE 5:

SIR DUKE won his last three in fine style and must have an excellent chance of making it four in a row. WAY CLEAR had excuses last time but form is fair. RANSOM OF CHOICE was slow away last time but ran on late. PRESIDENT OF POP ran an improved race last time against weaker.  PLACIDO takes a big jump in class but he did win his last two starts.

1st - SIR DUKE  (1); 2nd - WAY CLEAR (2); 3rd - RANSOM OF CHOICE (8); 4th - PRESIDENT OF POP (5); 5th - PLACIDO (6)

RACE 6:

KALAMAIN has excellent form and also drops in class. He has yet to travel this far but should be able to see out the extra. NOTTING HILL should stay the extra. Is bred to stay this far. GRAPE VINE has ability but has been a little wayward of late. PARADE COUNCIL won his maiden at the fourth attempt last time. That was a good win but will have to confirm and will have something to find on KALAMAIN. SIMMERING has good post maiden form but this is tougher.

1st -  KALAMAIN (1); 2nd - NOTTING HILL (2); 3rd - GRAPE VINE (5); 4th - PARADE COUNCIL (4); 5th - SIMMERING (7)

RACE 7:

EAST CAPE OAKS (Listed) For 3 year old Fillies - KUMIKO and EROS'S GIRL set to fight it out

The weekend's feature race program gets underway in Port Elizabeth this afternoon. Some very good and important feature races take place at Turffontein on Saturday. It would not be wise to ignore the Listed East Cape Oaks. From this race there could be a few entries  for some of the staying races for three year olds during the KZN Winter Season.

One such three year old filly could be KUMIKO from the Alan Greeff yard. Her form has been very consistent and her sire, SILVANO, is a proven stayer. The 2000m looks to be perfectly suited for her and she is taken to win a closely fought contest between her and the Justin Snaith trained EROS'S GIRL. This three year old made her PE debut last time after having raced against stronger in Cape Town. Bernard Fayd'Herbe will ride. Is also bred to stay the extra.

NIGHT FALL will have to repeat some of her Gauteng form and has had two disappointing runs in PE. She could be the big improver in this race. Interestingly S'Manga Khumalo has been engaged to ride and that could make her stand a chance.

Cape Town trainer, Mike Bass, has CAROUSEL SWING in the race. This will be her toughest assignment to date and is one to pay special attention to as her conditioner must race this daughter of Trippi's chances to have entered her into this race. The distance should not pose too many problems.

BOUNTIFUL HARVEST has been weakening but one has to respect the Justin Snaith yard.


1st -  KUMIKO (2); 2nd -EROS'S GIRL  (1); 3rd - NIGHT FALL (5); 4th - CAROUSEL SWING (4); 5th - BOUNTIFUL HARVEST (3)

RACE 8:

INSEARCHOFTHESUN ran well in a top division rec last time and should have the beating of this field. BLACKMALKIN was an unlucky loser in a top division race last time and can make amends. SEDGE is inclined to be inconsistent but on his day can win a race such as this. RUSSIAN MIG has not won for a while. he has the class but may battle to win this afternoon. ICEFIRE won at long odds last time and will have to go some to win this as well.

1st - INSEARCHOFTHESUN (1); 2nd - BLACKMALKIN (4); 3rd - SEDGE (5); 4th - RUSSIAN MIG (3); 5th - ICEFIRE (6)

RACE 9:

AL-AMADI has improved since changing stables and has finished a close up second in all of his last four starts, three of which were this C & D. Looks hard to beat. HEADLINE NEWS makes her debut. Watch the betting. GRAND CHRISTINE is improving slowly with each run. STARSTEPPER has her first run for the Justin Snaith yard and is worth following. SEVENTH CIRCLE did not show last time. Makes her PE debut and should improve.

1st - AL-AMADI  (4); 2nd - HEADLINE NEWS (12); 3rd - GRAND CHRISTINE (8); 4th - STARSTEPPER (3); 5th - SEVENTH CIRCLE (2)
