NUM TIME COMMENT
1 12:45 Hollywoodbets DURBANVILLE WELCOMES YOU MAIDEN JUVENILE PLATE 1000m
ENTICEMENT (6) wound up strongly on debut but found one better. Shows ability and can open the account this time. WINTER PIRATE (4) is going well with two minors form two tries. Big chance to get off the mark. PLATINUM GREY (7) was beaten a long way in a small field on debut but stuck on well. Leading rider goes aboard. Definite winning hope. SIR ORBIT (5) is a two-year-old colt (Malmoos - Down To Earth) making his debut. Profiles strongly for this and should be ready to fire.
2 01:20 JOIN THE RACE COAST TURF CLUB OPEN MAIDEN 1000m
SICILY (2) has been winding up strongly in stronger races. Placed 2/4 this course and distance. Big chance to break through. PITERAQ (1) ran fifth but was narrowly beaten in a blanket finish last time and freshened since. Racing well. Top prospects. SKY ROCKET (10) was fair last time over further but coming back in trip. Rates highly on best form. Can do much better. SLASH 'N BURN (7) is fitter again and expecting improvement. Among the better chances on bets figures.
3 01:55 LUCKY FISH DIAMOND RISE OPEN MAIDEN 2000m
O'FELLOW (7) is edging towards a win. One of the prime contenders in a most suitable contest. READY FOR THE ROAD (9) just missed here last time. At peak and capable of a strong showing. BORN TO MASTER (4) is a two-start maiden screaming for the extra ground and has upside. Can improve sharply this trip. DOUBLE DISTILLED (6) just missed in open class this trip two back. Can do a lot better than that last run.
4 02:30 ONE WORLD RACING SYNDICATE APPRENTICE CLASS 5 1250m
TRUE HORIZON (1) is worth following up. Yet to win here in 12 tries but runner-up in open class latest and will go close if runs to that this easier grade. RAFFISH TREND (4) is in form and goes well course and distance. Well placed to take this out. GIMME THE POWER (6) has placed three of last four. In the finish last time and has placed 2/3 course and distance. Major player with the light weight. LOVE SHACK (5) wasn’t too far off the mark last time. In the mix again.
5 03:05 BET WITH TOTE www.tote.co.za CLASS 4 1250m
SOOTY (2) has been kept fresh since a win here last time. Solid record course and distance. Got the job done last time with leading rider aboard who sticks for this. Leading hope again. WORLDLY (7) was a winner three back then not far away last two. Will prove tough to stave off. DAWN'S EARLY LIGHT (1) is overdue for a win with two recent placings, the latest finishing second over 1250m at this track, and is down in the weights this time. Has a strong record here at this journey with two wins from four runs. Should be involved in the finish. PALACE GIFT (6) won last two over 1000m in open class. Resumed with a fast finishing fourth here the start prior. Can return with a bold run.
6 03:40 P3 RACING SYNDICATE APPRENTICE CLASS 4 1250m
ACT OF GRACE (1) closed off strongly last start to get up for second, beaten 0.1 lengths, over 1400m at this track. Can measure up again. DECEMBER DAWN (2) made progress last time out, finishing 2.75 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1000m at this track. Finds a suitable assignment and can get the job done. GIRL LIKE US (3) has been in the market at her last couple of starts since resuming but hasn't made an impression, last start finishing fifth over 1200m at Kenilworth. Rates highly on best figures - can do much better. BLACK ERIKA (7) ran below expectations last time at this track, finishing fifth and beaten 2.5 lengths. Well placed to atone.
7 04:20 LUCKY FISH CRAZY TIME B STAKES 1600m
BOOGIEFIED (3) was too strong fresh and goes just as well second-up. Place only other try this trip. Fitter again and will take catching. HANDSOME PRINCE (7) wasn't too far away this class fresh. Has won 2/3 when second-up. Fitter and should go close. YAMAZAKI (8) turned in a nice effort last time and is racing well without winning. Placed 4/5 at the trip and has won here. Huge weight drop for this. SHERIFF JOHN STONE (6) was solid on debut this level and at this trip. Sure to kick on with that run under the belt.
8 04:55 Hollywoodbets BRIGHT FUTURE APPRENTICE CLASS 5 1600m
NOON DAY GUN (2) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a strong race when fresh from a spell last time out, finishing third and beaten only 2 lengths over 1400m at Kenilworth. Fitter and is a second-up winner. Improver with winning prospects. BACKINTHEFASTLANE (3) finished 5 lengths from the winner in fourth last start over 1600m at Kenilworth. Back in grade and well weighted with the claim. Deserves another chance. LANDSEER (5) finished second last start at the first run back from a spell over 1800m at this track, beaten 2 lengths. In the right race and is a winning hope. SPIRIT OF LEVANA (7) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a sixth over 1600m at this track. Finds a more suitable contest and can turn things around.
