WORLD SPORTS BETTING MAIDEN JUVENILE PLATE 1100m
OLAF THE STOUT (5) was well in the market on debut last time out and ran well but found one better over 1200m at this track. Leading player with plenty of improvement in store. INTO RED SPACE (3) is a two-year-old colt who was purchased for ZAR R 120,000 (Bloodstock South Africa 2025 Cape Yearling Sale). Muzi Yeni will give it every hope. Watch betting fluctuations for late money. CHIM CHIM CHEREE (7) is a two-year-old filly by Chimichuri Run out of Flowers Of Spring on debut for the Dean Smith stable. Should acquit herself well. Watch for a positive market lead. J LORDI (4) is a two-year-old colt on debut from the stable of Kelly Mitchley. By Declarationofpeace from Fiftyshadesdarker. Top-three chance. |

NARROW CREEK STUD/NEW TURF CARRIERS MAIDEN JUVENILE PLATE 1200m
OBSIDIAN STAR (2) will find this a little easier than her second on debut four weeks ago, beaten 5.5 lengths at the end of 1200m at this track. Sure to take a lot from that hitout so a big run is anticipated. MALIBU ICE (1) is a two-year-old filly by Malmoos out of California Cool on debut for the Alan Greeff stable. Bold showing expected. Watch betting. PRINCESS OF AJIAAL (3) finished out of the money on debut two starts back then was beaten 8 lengths when fourth in a 1200m contest at this track two weeks ago after being in the firing line on the corner. Likely improver with strong prospects. ROSES FOR TREX (4) is a two-year-old filly on debut from the stable of Dean Smith. By Horizon from Crown Of Roses. Pay to watch for any positive betting moves. |

WILGERBOSDRIFT STUD MAIDEN PLATE 1600m
HOMING PIGEON (1) is close to a win after a string of recent placings, the latest when third over 1800m at Durbanville. Looks ready to win. ONE SUMMER (2) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 1600m at this track after being prominent from the outset. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. MISSOURI FLAME (3) progressed nicely last time out to finish just a nose from the winner in second over 1900m at Fairview All Weather. Looks well placed so expect another big run. OH MANDY (4) is yet to break through in 22 runs but wasn't far away last time when second over 1600m at this track on February 6. Has a decent record at this trip with nine minor placings from 12 tries and is one of the better hopes. |

RIDGEMONT MIDDLE STAKES 1800m
GLOBAL ALLY (1) turned in a modest performance when sixth last time out over 1800m at this track, beaten 8 lengths. That followed a win at Fairview All Weather at the previous outing. The engagement of Richard Fourie is noteworthy. Well off best last time but will find this easier. Nicely placed to make amends. SONG TO THE MOON (5) failed to run a strong 2000m last start after a close second over 1800m at Kenilworth the run prior. Freshened for this so worth another chance. HONORABLE MEMBER (3) didn't make an impact at her last run before going for a spell on January 16, finishing sixth and beaten 16 lengths over 1600m at this track. Speedy type who has the figures to win. Bold performance expected. HEEMSTEDE (6) came home strongly last start to finish second, beaten 1.3 lengths, over 1900m at Fairview All Weather. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Solid claims on best form. |

MAURITZFONTEIN STUD FM 84 HANDICAP 1400m
LA LANDONNE (11) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race when she worked home well and finished 1.75 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1400m at Kenilworth. Going up a level this time but she deserves another chance. LADY BOMBER (3) made it three wins on the bounce last time out when she got home by 2.25 lengths over 1600m at this track. Leading player. EXQUISITE (4) is yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a spell, the latest when seventh over 1400m at this track. Cherry-ripe now and is among the main hopes. MOUNTAIN HIGH (5) met with solid support last time out but could only manage to finish fifth over 1600m at Turffontein Standside in a disappointing performance. Will enjoy a drop in class so she is a major player. |

HOLLYWOODBETS SUPPORTS ECHCU EAST CAPE SPRINT CUP 1200m
FAIRY KNIGHT (1) has a superb strike-rate including last three on end in this class. Freshened for this and on top record course and distance is the one to beat. ANUSCHKA'S WORLD (3) is well placed and has a super consistent record course and distance. Winning rider back aboard. Should prove hard to beat. MERCANTOUR (4) was thereabouts last time out when slowly way but found the line strongly. Definite top-three prospect. ROMAN AGENT (6) is an honest type with a strong record course and distance. Sure to be about the money. |

BRYANSTON AUCTIONEERS EAST CAPE GUINEAS 1600m
ANOTHERDANCEFORME (4) is the class of the race. Only career defeat in eight starts was two back in the Grade 2 Fillies Championship. Effortless course and distance winner fresh and has won 6/6 this circuit. The one to beat. IN A TIMELY MANNER (1) was a big winner last time to score this journey. At peak and racing well. Expected to feature in the finish. SILVA CITY (5) was no match last time when solid but last of four. Capable of more than she showed last time. Will give a sight. AUGUSTA ROSSO (6) was no match for the winner last time but beat the rest and can feature in the finish again. |

MINING PRESSURE SYSTEMS MR 86 HANDICAP 1600m
MENTE ET MANU (2) finished third when resuming from a spell last start over 1600m at Kenilworth. Fitter and is a second-up winner. Among the top chances. PORFIRIO (3) continued a hot streak of form, winning over 1400m at this track last start to make it three straight. Should appreciate the longer journey and is expected to be in the finish again. LAGUNA VERDE (4) had been rock-solid with two placings in a row before finishing fifth over 1400m at this track last start. Should park just off the speed. One of the main contenders. NEW MEXICO (5) finished third last start at the first run back from a spell over 1400m at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths. Will strip fitter this time. Worth plenty of thought. |
