RACE 1

5 SUSURRANDO    8 FINE DINING   6 ROYALE JACKET   4 MR MCDONALD

Summary: Keep an eye on the first timers. Of those that have run, SUSURRANDO (5) has shown signs of improvement after just three outings and although he has a fair weight to shoulder in this Maiden Handicap he does look capable. The year older FINE DINING (8) has been narrowly beaten at his last two on the poly. He takes on weaker here but does step up in trip which may be a concern. ROYALE JACKET (6) makes the trip from the Highveld. He has modest form but the switch to the poly could bring out the best. MR MCDONALD (4) could prove best of the debutantes. (Andrew Harrison: 5-8-6-4).

RACE 2

7 QUARTER MASTER   2 MALONGANE   4 OMNIA   3 RAMBUNCTIOUS BOB

Summary: QUARTER MASTER (7) found some market support on debut but raced very green. He has drawn wide but in a small field and can make the required improvement. MALONGANE (2)  was a good second last run after a break and may just have needed it. He has placed in his last three. OMNIA (4) has run her two best races on the poly but drops in trip. First timer RAMBUNTIOUS BOB (3) has a smart pedigree and is one to watch in the market. (Andrew Harrison: 7-2-4-3).

RACE 3

8 SPIRIT OF SHIMLA   6 QUEEN FENN   2 CHAMPAGNE PROBLEMS   1 OLIVE GROVE

Summary: SPIRIT OF SHIMLA (8) has the widest draw but was a beaten favourite over course and distance on debut. She can make the required improvement but will need to get the better of QUEEN FENN (6) who shows good pace and was only run out of it late at her last two. CHAMPAGNE PROBLEMS (2) has been touched off at her last two including over course and distance. She has a good draw and can break the ice. OLIVE GROVE (1) is back to a sprint but has improved on the poly and can feature prominently. LEVITATOR (4) is back in blinkers and switches to the poly She is a struggling six-year-old. (Andrew Harrison: 8-6-2-1).

RACE 4

6 QUEEN OF THE AIR   5 INTRO   9 CRIMSON TYPHOON  7 RUN FOR PEACE

Summary: QUEEN OF THE AIR (6) was a beaten favourite last run when run out of it late. This longer trip should suit. INTRO (5) is a struggling maiden but has been in good form and will be a big runner in this field. RUN FOR PEACE (7) improved last run and steps up in trip. One to keep an eye on in the betting. CRIMSON TYPHOON (9) made a promising debut on the poly but disappointed on the turf next time out. Back on poly and up in trip she cannot be ignored. (Andrew Harrison: 6-5-9-7).

RACE 5

4 SPECTACULAR   6 CONTINENTALEXPRESS   3 RICCARDO   1 HODGEPODGE

Summary: SPECTACULAR (4) may have found his last start just out of his compass and should be better over this shorter trip. However, he is 2kg worse of with CONTINENTALEXPRESS (6) on their last meeting which should bring them a lot closer together. RICCARDO (3) is back over what looks to be his optimum trip and he has been dropping in the handicap. HODGEPODGE (1) and OUR LADY FATE (2) are fillies that stay well and both are in with winning chances. (Andrew Harrison: 4-6-3-1).

RACE 6

6 DRIELANDENPUNT    SYX HOTFIX   4 BLAZING LIGHT   7 RODRIGUEZ

Summary: DRIELANDENPUNT (6) doddled home in a maiden at just his third start. However, the form of the position was nothing to write home about so one should be cautious. He does have plenty of scope and meets a field of aging handicappers. SYX HOTFIX (1) has started at long odds at his last two on the poly and was not disgraced behind the useful Sundance Kid last time out. He has a 4kg claimer aboard so should be competitive again. RODRIGUEZ (7) enjoyed the extra when winning his last start but has consistent form over this trip and has a handy weight. Strapping BLAZING LIGHT (4) should make light of the 50kg on his back and can follow up. (Andrew Harrison: 6-1-4-7).

RACE 7

7 SPAARNE RIVIER    1 INDUSTRIALSTENGTH   3 MVELELO   2 ISIKWISHIKWISHI

Summary: SPAARNE RIVIER (7) made a smart handicap debut when run out of it late when trying a mile. Back to a trip over which he won his maiden he could make amends.  INDUSTRIALSTRENGTH (1) has been a touch disappointing. He was staying on nicely over a mile at Hollywoodbets Kenilworth last time out. Sent back to KZN where he made his debut with blinkers over what looks to be his preferred trip he should be a big contender. ISIKWISHIKWISHI (2) seldom runs a bad race and was narrowly beaten over course and distance last time out and can go one better. MVELELO (3) steps up in trip having won his last two over shorter. He is up in the handicap but is the pick of the Hollywood runners if one follows stable rider Sean Veale’s choice. (Andrew Harrison: 7-1-3-2).

RACE 8

1 OH MY GUCCI GIRL   3 CLICKBAIT   6 BLIND SPEED   10 SIBERIAN WINTER

Summary: Competitive race to end the evening. OH MY GUCCI GIRL (1) has been much improved with blinkers on the poly. She steps up in trip but has the best of the draw and should be competitive. CLICKBAIT (3) shed her maiden on the poly and has consistent sprint form. The step up in trip should suit. BLIND SPEED (6) improved last run when taking on stronger and the form has held up. A repeat could see her home. SIBERIAN WINTER (10) steps onto the poly and has improved since returning from a break. She has a tricky draw but should be in the scrum come the finish. Not an easy race. (Andrew Harrison: 1-3-6-10).
