8-4-1-2-3

A number of first timers. The betting could be your best guide. Keep an eye on betting moves on PLATINUM LEGEND.

RACE 2:

8-3-4-6-9

Once again a number of first timers. MALEFICENT could be worth considering.

RACE 3:

7-4-1-2-3

CALAPAN weakens but has scope for improvement. CENTERFIELD did run on last time. VARS PRIDE may be better suited to shorter as with ROYAL REGATTA. SEKONJALO has much more to find for the win.

RACE 4:

1-3-7-6-8

RESOLUTE CAPTAIN looks hard to beat on form, especially last run. DIAMOND CONKER is improving. MISSISSIPPI RISING came back top form with an improved run last time. KEEP ON FLYING stayed on last time but yet to show over this distance. ALL OVER PAWLOVA showed small improvement last time. Can earn.

RACE 5:

1-2-6-4-3

TABREEK is battling for his second win but is never too far behind. CRIMSON MAGIC can challenge for the win. Doe4s have the ability to finish well. Stable companion KING GERARD is in good form and is a possibility. DE LUJO did not show in Kimberley last time. May be better back in Gauteng. CAPUCHE has steady form. Both wins over the same distance.

RACE 6:

2-7-1-5-6

GOLDEN MAN has good recent form and has had two good seconds from two starts this C & D. YANKEE CAPTAIN ran well in his post maiden last time. Three good runs thus far. ATSO TIME is inconsistent but can challenge. BAH has his issues but is capable on his day. ONE YESTERDAY won well last time but may battle to repeat.

RACE 7:

6-5-7-1-2

STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN last ran on Saturday and ran a good third, less than four lengths back. Watch for improvement. DRAGOON has improved in his last two, both this C & D. DASPOORT drops in class and has been showing improving. SUPANOVA was a surprise winner last time. Would surprise again. DREAM LEADER could be improving again.

RACE 8:

2-4-1-3-9

OLD EM has run well despite being plagued by misfortune. Stable companion, ELOQUENCE won her first two and followed them up with two good runs. Should go close. PERFUMED LADY won her first three runs over 1000m but never showed in her next two over slightly further. SHARP PRINCESS ran on well despite coughing last time. ALDIARA has not won in a year but has placed regularly.

RACE 9:

6-2-1-5-11

LADY THISTLE ran on strongly last time in an improved run. All wuins and places have been over the distance. MODJADJI disappointed last time when losing ground at the start. Respect trainer and jockey. KINGS V is C & D suited but is off form. DUKES DIME disappointed last time. Had good form before that. Only win this C & D. S’WAY invariably lacks finish.

BEST BET: RACE 2 NUMBER 8 MALEFICENT
