It's raining in Durban (1045am Wed 17 Oct), albeit welcome spring rains which will get the grass growing and clean the air but not so great for racing at Greyville today.

The rain is light currently and with POLYTRACK raining today, it should hold up. That's what it was placed on there for in the first instance.

The rain has been persistent and constant all night but there was Jo downpour or localized flooding. It is currently fairly light rain.

Anton Marcus has a good card of rides and he starts with the Paul Peter runner. The smart Gauteng conditioner brings down the maiden Awayinthewoods in the first race which is likely the best bet on the card.

Alistair Gordon fires his gun with Sigismund in the last which is the next best bet on the card in our opinion. The races are competitive and with the weather around, it won't be easy pickings.
