Betting supplied by MBet

RACE 1:

GYPSY BALLAD ought to be respected on an improved latest effort. SEVEN KINGDOMS was moderate on Sunday at Turffontein. Improved penultimate. STUNNING ANGEL has run well in her last two. Consider in this field. SILVER DOLLAR was poor in her latest effort but may have a chance on debut run two runs back. SEEKING SEATTLE is still improving.

1st - GYPSY BALLAD (3); 2nd - SEVEN KINGDOMS (2); 3rd - STUNNING ANGEL (1); 4th - SILVER DOLLAR (10); 5th - SEEKING SEATTLE (6)

RACE 2:

POLAR SECRET is never far back but weakens. NIGHT MOVES fell in her last run but ran well prior to that. BELLEVUE showed good improvement last time. Respect. TEMPEST did not run as well last time as her previous efforts. Chance at best. TWILIGHT SAGA has shown marginal improvement last few. Can fill back end of quartets.

1st - POLAR SECRET (3); 2nd - NIGHT MOVES (2); 3rd - BELLEVUE (5); 4th - TEMPEST (1); 5th - TWILIGHT SAGA (7)

RACE 3:

BIG SHOT ran two good seconds in his last two runs. May be ready to win. DUBLIN REBEL has a chance on penultimate start. WONT WAIT did not show last time but has claims on previous runs. Lacked finish last two. BATTLE OF ARCOLE has run one good race in four and that was his penultimate run. ROYALSECURITYSTAR raids from KZN. Yard has done well previously when raiding here at this track. Form not great though.

1st - BIG SHOT (1); 2nd - DUBLIN REBEL (3); 3rd - WONT WAIT (7); 4th - BATTLE OF ARCOLE (10); 5th - ROYALSECURITYSTAR (14)

RACE 4:

THE ROYAL RUMBA has been holding form and has been finishing well. SUNDARI stayed on well last time to win. Had been weakening final stages in previous. FORM UP ran a good race against stronger last time. Has claims if running on well again. ISOSHA takes on stronger but has good post maiden form. OLYMPIC BOLT has won and placed this C & D and has been finishing well.

1st - THE ROYAL RUMBA (3); 2nd - SUNDARI (7); 3rd - FORM UP (1); 4th - ISOSHA (8); 5th - OLYMPIC BOLT (5)

RACE 5:

AQUA BLUE won very easily by four lengths last time. Must have claims again. LORD WINDSOR has his excuses from his latest effort. Ignore that run. HE IS MAGIC caused an upset last time when winning his maiden. Would upset again if winning today. Be cautious! LIMBO is improving again. PERFECT TRIP looks to be losing form. Place chance at best.

1st - AQUA BLUE (2); 2nd - LORD WINDSOR (15); 3rd - HE IS MAGIC (1); 4th - LIMBO (6); 5th - PERFECT TRIP (9)

RACE 6:

WILHELMINA won this C & D three runs back. Has some good form. Can go close. DANIELLE was the subject of late betting support when winning for the second time last time. Could surprise again. RIVER RUN showed improvement last time when running on. ICE GODDESS also showed good improvement and has top apprentice aboard. MAGIC GLEN hasn't won in almost four years but did show some signs of life last time.

1st - WILHELMINA (12); 2nd - DANIELLE (2); 3rd - RIVER RUN (10); 4th - ICE GODDESS (9); 5th - MAGIC GLEN (11)

RACE 7:

SALUTE THE SUN is holding form well and all of his wins have been at this track. BENBOW stayed on well last time. Loves the sand but may prefer shorter. ROUGH JUSTICE came back to form last two. Looks set to win one soon. VULCAN could improve further. RIVER TRIP did not run well last time. Is better than that run.

1st - SALUTE THE SUN (5); 2nd - BENBOW (10); 3rd - ROUGH JUSTICE (6); 4th - VULCAN (2); 5th - RIVER TRIP (8)

RACE 8:

FORT NAVIDAD races for the first time on sand. He has his problems but may improve at this track. TORO ROSSO won his maiden at the second attempt last time. May need to confirm. Can improve though. THE GOBI was heavily backed late last time when winning his maiden at the second try. Could be worth following on that betting support. NIGHT MARCH did not show in his post maiden last time. Is only a two year old. Had good form before latest effort. MOI POWER won his maiden at the eleventh attempt last time. May need to confirm.

1st - FORT NAVIDAD (9); 2nd - TORO ROSSO (1); 3rd - THE GOBI (6); 4th - NIGHT MARCH (5); 5th - MOI POWER (4)
