WELCOME TO NELSON MANDELA BAY OPEN MAIDEN 1300m
MADRA RUA (1) was in the money two starts back at Kenilworth then missed the frame but was not too far away last time over 1500m at Durbanville. Settles on the speed. Capable of sharp improvement and can get off the mark. TWICE A QUEEN (2) is on debut for the Alan Greeff stable. Three-year-old filly by Twice Over from Impressive Queen. Serious contender, particularly if solid in the market. INDESTRUCTABLE (3) finished fourth over 1200m at this track at his most recent appearance on July 3. Looks a strong top-three prospect. GOOD SHINE (4) made progress last time out, finishing 2 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 1400m at this track. Finds a nice race and can secure another top-three finish. |

WWW.TAB.CO.ZA OPEN MAIDEN 1300m
AMONG THE WILLOWS (2) finished third, beaten 8 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1200m at this track. Leading rider back aboard and this easier. Hard to beat in this suitable race. ALLEYAH'S ROCKET (5) came home strongly last start to finish second, beaten half a length, over 1200m at this track. Has good early toe so she should be handy in the run. Among the leading chances. COCO BEACH (6) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 8 lengths when eighth over 1600m at Kenilworth three-and-a-half weeks ago. Has the talent to produce a better result. JAZZ AWAY (4) finished 3.5 lengths from the winner in sixth at her most recent outing over 1400m at Fairview. Worth plenty of thought. |

#YOUCANBETONUS! FM 86 HANDICAP 1600m
ONCIDIUM (1) lifted strongly to get the prize by 2.75 lengths three runs back at this track before filling a minor placing at her last two starts. Goes well here and winning rider board aboard. Expected to go close. AUGUSTA ROSSO (2) finished 2.5 lengths away in seventh last time out over 1200m at this track when resuming from a spell. Steps up in distance today. Goes well at this trip, recording three minor placings and is sure to go well. POTENZA (5) knuckled down strongly to get within half a length of the winner in second last start over 1600m at this track when fresh from a spell. Has a win and two minor placings from four starts at this track and distance. One of the major players. ALEX MILLER (6) finished second two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by a neck over 1300m at this track. Nicely placed to play a pivotal role. |

RACING240 MR 88 HANDICAP 1600m
INGQWELE (2) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at this track over 1200m. Overdue for another win. Placed ion open class latest and has a strong record course and distance. Plenty to like about his prospects. TOO LATE MY MATE (4) was always forward and boxed on to finish second over 1600m at this track last time. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Likely to feature. TENJIKU (1) is yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a spell, the latest when fifth over 1600m at this track. Will strip fitter and is capable of sharp improvement. VILA VICOSA (5) was comfortably accounted for when sixth last time out over 1600m at this track, beaten 5.5 lengths, after a win at this track at the previous outing. Well placed and can make amends. |

TAB TELEBET 011 074 0300 FM 72 HANDICAP 1600m
NEW DAY (3) scored last start by 4.5 lengths at this track over 1400m. Yet to miss the placings here in an excellent record which boasts two wins and two placings. Far too good latest and should be in the finish again. BLUE PALACE (5) finds it hard to win but ran a strong race last time when beaten a long neck into third over 1600m at this track. Can run well again and take this out. WOMAN IN GOLD (1) was comfortably accounted for when tenth last start over 2000m at this track, beaten 5.5 lengths. That followed a good first-up win at this track. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. OH MANDY (6) returns after a spell of three-and-a-half months. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1400m at this track. Super consistent course and distance. Useful type who should go well. |

PLAY SOCCER 6, 10 AND 13 FM 66 HANDICAP 1900m
TORI'S GIRL (5) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 2000m at this track, beaten 5 lengths. Placed only try course and distance. This far easier and fitter again. Strong winning chance. DEE DEE'S DELIGHT (3) was last at the races when she won over 1600m at this track on July 1. Rates highly and makes plenty of appeal. OCEAN FLAME (1) finished out of the money two starts back then she was never in contention and was beaten 2.75 lengths when fourth over 2000m at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. NIGHT IN JAPAN (6) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at this track, finishing second and only 2.25 lengths from the winner at the end of 2000m. Well placed and should be about the money. |

RACING TODAY CLASSIFIED STAKES 1200m
HONORINE'S GIMMIE (2) has been thereabouts lately without being able to break through, the latest effort a second at this track over 1200m. Gave a sight latest in similar race but found one better. Expected to go close. REAL WAR (4) missed the placings two runs back then didn't feature last start when 2.75 lengths away in sixth over 1400m at this track. Nicely placed to get the prize. TASTE THE RAINBOW (1) turned in a fine effort to win by 1.3 lengths at this track and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot repeat the dose. MIO DESTINO (6) ran below expectations last start, finishing fifth and beaten 2.5 lengths at this track over 1400m. Likely improver with top-three prospects. |

NEXT FAIRVIEW RACEMEETING FRIDAY 11 SEPTEMBER MR 66 HANDICAP 1000m
ROCK UP (3) was an effortless winner last time over 1000m at this track, scoring by 3.5 lengths. Has the pace and the right draw to find a good early position. Far too good last time and expected to measure up again. WORDSWORTH (8) fought on for third last start over 1000m at Fairview, making it three minor placings in a row. Looks well placed this line-up so expect another big run. BUMPS LAST GRIND (1) resumes from a spell of 11 weeks and is having his first outing under new trainer Juan Nel. Finished eighth at Turffontein Standside over 1000m at the opening run last time in work. Can measure up at the first run for a new barn. REMIND ME OF YOU (5) brings the right form to the table after taking out a 1000m contest at this track last time out by a neck. Profiles to run well. |
