DIAGEO OPEN MAIDEN 2000m
SATELLITE WORLD (3) is close to breaking through after finishing third last start over 1800m at Fairview All Weather when he was prominent throughout. In the minor money in his last five runs. Go close. STRAIGHT RED (4) is still a maiden after 10 starts. Managed to find the placings at Fairview All Weather two starts back before finishing fourth over 1800m at Fairview All Weather last start. Cannot be left out of calculations. PEEKABOO (5) continues to improve and should be at his peak now after finishing in the money at Fairview All Weather over 1600m last time. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. CAN WE START (8) is a five-start maiden who resumed from a spell last start and was beaten 6 lengths when sixth over 1900m at Fairview All Weather. Bold showing expected with added fitness this time. |

ENGEN OIL CENTRE & PE FUELS PINNACLE STAKES 1000m
Looks a race in three. FAIRY KNIGHT (1) won three on end, then stakes placed two back before winding up late last time. Has a sound record here with seven wins and seven minor placings from 16 starts. Hard to beat. CRUISE CONTROL (2) was prominent on the corner and battled on well to finish second last start over 1200m at Fairview All Weather, beaten a nose as favourite. Continues to race well. Capable of a strong showing. ANUSCHKA'S WORLD (3) is back from a spell after closing last campaign with a couple of wins, the latest over 1200m at this track on March 20. Stakes winner before a spell and has a great record this course and distance. Take catching fresh. CLIFF TOP (4) was unplaced two runs back when fresh from a spell then again missed the frame last start over 1200m at Fairview All Weather, beaten 10 lengths into eighth.

NOMADS EASTERN CAPE PINNACLE STAKES 1600m
Hard to go past ZINOVI (1) who is in sparkling form, winning four of his last five. Top record course and distance as well and the winning rider stays aboard. Hard to beat. ZATARA MAGIC (2) comes here off a break of four-and-a-half months. Scored over 2000m at this track to launch the last campaign. Strong chance to kick the campaign off on the right note. LANCIAFIAMME (3) finished second last start at the first run back from a spell over 1400m at Fairview All Weather, beaten 3 lengths. Nice return and fitter again. Solid top-three hope. MR FOX (4) knuckled down strongly to get within 1.4 lengths of the winner in third last start over 1200m at Fairview All Weather when returning from a spell. Should be winding up late again. |

ZANETHEMBA CHARITY FOUNDATION CLASSIFIED STAKES 1600m
JOHNNY DRAMA (1) finished 5 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1400m at Fairview All Weather three weeks ago. Steps up in distance today which suits much better. The testing material. ACTION AMERICA (2) is usually thereabouts but finds it hard to win, with only one victory from 13 starts. Did a good job last start to finish second over 1400m at Fairview All Weather, beaten 5 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run. IM THE BUZZ (5) has four placings from eight appearances this preparation and last start finished 2.5 lengths from the winner in third over 1600m at Fairview All Weather. Don't underestimate. QONDANEKUKHANYENI (4) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1600m at Fairview All Weather, beaten 5 lengths. Strips fitter and should be thereabouts. |

SOVEREIGN FOODS MR 78 HANDICAP 1400m
CORAL CREEK (5) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on April 10. Looks well placed here fresh and leading rider stays aboard. Winning hope. VILA VICOSA (7) is yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a spell, the latest when sixth over 1400m at Fairview All Weather. Should be peaking now and is capable of sharp improvement. STOKESY (2) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 2.75 lengths when fourth in a 1600m contest at Fairview All Weather four weeks ago. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. CIAN THE CONQUEROR (1) has not won for a long while. Last raced on June 12 when beaten 11 lengths into ninth at Fairview All Weather over 1200m. Likely improver who should be in the mix. |

TAB DAHLIA PLATE 1200m
U S RANGER (1) is a talented colt who has been in the money at all four starts. Has not been produced since he scored over 1200m at this track on April 17. Has been a number of these already and expected to go close. MASTER MTOTO (5) resumes after a break of ten weeks. Won first two before finishing runner-up to U S Ranger latest. Has won fresh and can go close again. FIRST OFFICER (2) finished third last start over 1300m at Fairview All Weather, beaten 1.3 lengths. Has started two times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Honest colt overdue and expected to go well.
