South African Quartet Pools with fractional betting offered at Cheltenham(UK) – 15 November 2025

Warren Lenferna

Nine races are carded for the Western Cape’s Hollywoodbets Kenilworth on Saturday, 15 November, with proceedings getting under way at 12:40pm. It’s an opportunity for the South African apprentices to strut their stuff, with the opener being an Apprentice Maiden Plate over 1000m.

There are, in fact, three races catering for the “Appies” on the day, which is brilliant to see — the more chances these young riders get, the better. The South African Jockey Academy continues to churn out talented riders.

There are only six runners in the first, and not too much good form to work with. That’ll B The Day looks ready to make today his winning day! He was beaten narrowly last time and is selected to go one better now. Apprentice Sifisokuhle Bungane gets the opportunity to add one more to his tally.

The second race is over 1000m at B Stakes level. It is a competitive race, as it should be, and four of the seven runners warrant inclusion. Black Cheetah is good but returns from a rest and has had a somewhat stop-start career so far. Still, he’s loaded with ability and can win. Winter Snap returns from a long 38-week layoff and, if fit and well, can go close — his form is encouraging. Little Boy Blue, from an in-form visiting stable, brings franked form from his last run and looks a huge runner who might be the one they all have to beat. Elusive Winter has won his last two, is going for the hat-trick, and might be hard to peg back — he is very, very fast!

The third race is also a B Stakes, but this time over 1400m. This looks to be an absolute “two horse race” between Gimmie Rules and Jet Force. The way Gimmie Rules quickened up from last to win at Hollywoodbets Durbanville last time was hugely impressive, and he will end up being much better than his current merit rating of 98. He looks super talented and special. Jet Force, who has won three of his four starts, clearly has ability and looks a quality sort in the making. Big chance.

Race four is an Apprentice D Stakes over 1400m — a competitive and tough event. Include the field if your budget allows, as an upset could easily be on the cards.

Race five is over 1950m, a Class 4 where the benchmark is 82, and it runs at 3:00pm. Only two horses are needed for the exotics here: Coco’s Hero and Gallic Victor, both owned by Khaya Stables but trained by different conditioners. Coco’s Hero is improving and seeking the hat-trick. He found extra and dug down deep to win last time, fending off the challenge from Baton Rouge. Gallic Victor took everyone’s breath away when making a winning debut at Hollywoodbets Scottsville. He then returned home to the Cape and caught the eye again when finishing second to a nice type. He could have improved so much off that run, that he proves hard to beat — another exciting three-year-old on the day.

Races six and seven both feature competitive fields, and cases can be made for many. Try to load up in the exotics, as these two look particularly tough to assess.

The penultimate race, the eighth, is over 1000m — a Class 4 where the benchmark is set at 82. Here, Churchilliansets the standard. The son of Rafeef out of La Volta is holding his form smartly and can notch up his next career victory. He’s having his second run as a gelding, and the third horse from his last start has since come out and won, giving the form a healthy boost. There are others with chances, but Candice Bass’s runner, partnered by Aldo Domeyer, looks to be the one they’ll all have to fear most.

The finale goes off at 5:20pm, another 1000m Class 4 event. Dame Of Trix, Inside Voice, Love Shack, October Fest, and Easy Money all have outstanding chances, but the first selection is Inside Voice. The Pathfork filly, from the Vaughan Marshall barn and ridden by her Hollywood owners’ retained jockey Sean Veale, impressed when winning her maiden — and even more so when following up straight out of it. She can be followed with huge interest and is another talented three-year-old to watch on the day.

RACE 1

5 THAT’LL B THE DAY ran a great race at Hollywoodbets Durbanville on the 25th of October, he stayed on strongly for second behind William’s Woman, the blinkers stay on, and he gets 4kgs off the back with the apprentice claim, if he can build on his last performance, he will be very hard to beat in this field. 4 MOODY BLUE must have a big winning chance, he ran fourth in the same race as That’ll B The Day last time, he was only beaten just over three lengths by the winner, he will be right there in the finish on his best form. 6 ETERNAL DIAMOND has been rested for 67 days, he was disappointing behind Typically French on the 9th of September, ignore that run, he is much better than that performance, if he doesn’t need the run back from a small break, he could finish amongst the places. 1 PRETTY BOY can certainly win on debut, this is not a strong field, watch him closely. (Brandon Bailey: 5 – 4 – 6 – 1)

RACE 2

7 ELUSIVE WINTER has been rested for 73 days, he won well at Hollywoodbets Durbanville on the 3rd of September, he was given four points for that impressive victory, he is very fast, on his best form, he can certainly win a race like this. 4 AIR RAID has dropped one point in the ratings, and the tongue tie has been fitted, he is much better than his recent form, watch him closely, he will go very close to winning at a decent price. 3 WINTER SNAP has been rested and gelded, he is a beautiful horse with a great action, the yard thinks highly of this individual, if he doesn’t need the run back after a long break, he will be tough to beat. 6 LITTLE BOY BLUE ran a terrific race at Hollywoodbets Greyville on the 3rd of October, he was drawn poorly on that occasion, and he still managed to run a good second behind Exocet, the cheek pieces have been fitted for his race on Saturday, he will be competitive. (Brandon Bailey: 7 – 4 – 3 – 6)

RACE 3

2 GIMMIE RULES quickened up like a smart horse to win in great fashion on the 15th of October, he was given eight points for that win at Hollywoodbets Durbanville, there is no doubt that he will love the step up in trip to 1400m, from a good draw, he will be hard to beat. 1 JET FORCE has been rested for 73 days, he won a great race at Hollywoodbets Durbanville on the 3rd of September, he is still improving, from a neat draw, he will go close, include him into all bets. 6 GOODNESSGRACIOUSME has been rested for 69 days, she stayed on well for second last time behind her stable companion (Swiatek), her form is solid, she is a big filly with lots of ability, watch her closely. 3 COASTAL COMMANDER has been rested for 63 days, the blinkers have been removed, and he has dropped even further in the ratings, on his best form, he could sneak into the Quartet. (Brandon Bailey: 2 – 1 – 6 – 3)

RACE 4

8 MELA STRENGTH won a gutsy race at Hollywoodbets Durbanville on the 8th of October, he was given two points for that win, the tricky draw here will make life tough for him, if he manages to get some luck in running, he can certainly win again. 3 FLYING SOUTH won her maiden well on the 18th of October, the form of that race has worked out well, she is a young filly that is still improving, the step up in trip to 1400m should be no problem at all, include her into all bets. 4 CEDAR POINT is still a maiden, he stayed on well for fourth behind Miami Summer on the 29th of October, from a neat draw on Saturday, he can be competitive at a decent price. 7 TRES CHIC never runs a bad race, she tries hard, with some luck in running, she can sneak into the places. (Brandon Bailey: 8 – 3 – 4 – 7)

RACE 5

9 GALLIC VICTOR flew past many to run a super race for second behind Mente Et Manu on the 18th of October, that was his first run back after a small break, there is no doubt that he will be much fitter on Saturday, with some luck in running, he can certainly win a race like this quite easily. 1 HEAL AND SOUL stayed on well for third behind Master Of Paris on the 5th of October, he is in good form at the moment, and he gets a good draw on Saturday, he will be competitive. 4 GENTLEMAN JOE ran a great race behind Western World on the 25th of October, it was a close finish, at this level he will always have a winning chance, include him into all bets. 6 WESTERN WORLD bounced back to his best form to win a lovely race at Hollywoodbets Durbanville last time, he was given three points for that win, if he can bring that run to the track again on Saturday, he will have a massive each way chance. (Brandon Bailey: 9 – 1 – 4 – 6)

RACE 6

4 TWO A PENNY stayed on strongly for fourth behind Western World at Hollywoodbets Durbanville on the 25th of October, she was given way too much to do on that occasion, hopefully she settles a lot closer to the speed on Saturday from a good draw, she is a lovely looking mare, on her best form, she will go close to winning. 9 LAVENDER BAY was touched off in the finish last time, she was doing some good work late behind Strawberry Thief on the 25th of October, unfortunately she has a bad draw here, and she was given two points for getting beat last time, but she is honest and she will run a good race again. 8 BENEATH THE CLOUDS ran a top race for third in the same race as Lavender Bay last time, she was in front, and she fought hard all the way to the line on that occasion, if she gets some cheap sectionals in front again, she will be hard to peg back late. 1 HELIOTROPE is as honest as they come, she has a good draw here, and she gets the apprentice claim, watch her closely, she can pop up at a decent price. (Brandon Bailey: 4 – 9 – 8 – 1)

RACE 7

2 BONNE BOUCHE could be some decent value in this tricky race, she is much better than her recent performance at Hollywoodbets Durbanville on the 8th of October, she is very fast, the drop in trip here will help her improve, and she will enjoy the straight track at Hollywoodbets Kenilworth, watch her closely, she can win a race like this on her best form. 4 AVIGNON needed his last run back from a long break, he stayed on well for fourth behind Country Time on the 15th of October, he will be much fitter on Saturday, if he gets away from the field at the right time, he will be hard to beat. 5 BLACK PATH never runs a bad race, her form of late is good, even though she wants further, she will be doing some good work towards the end of the race. 9 WINTERONTHEGREEN has been in great form of late, she ran a good race last time behind Country Time, with some luck in running, she will be competitive. (Brandon Bailey: 2 – 4 – 5 – 9)

RACE 8

2 CHURCHILLIAN needed his last run back after a long break, he ran a terrific race for fourth behind Gimmie Rules on the 15th of October at Hollywoodbets Durbanville, he will be much fitter on Saturday, the yard thinks highly of this gelding, on his best form, he can definitely win. 4 DEMANDING DAVE lost his race in the stipes room last time, it got very tight at the finish on that occasion, he is a young horse that is improving with every start, there is no doubt that he will be right there in the finish again. 7 BILLY COOL had absolutely no luck in running at Hollywoodbets Durbanville on the 22nd of September, he was finishing like a train for fourth behind Steadfast, he can be a tricky ride, if the race works out for him, he will be competitive. 1 ALL ABOUT AL finished second behind Sardinia Bay on the 5th of October, he is honest and he tries hard, include him into all bets. (Brandon Bailey: 2 – 4 – 7 – 1)

RACE 9

1 DAME OF TRIX will go close to winning the lucky last, she ran a great race last time from a poor draw at Hollywoodbets Durbanville on the 25th of October, she is certainly enjoying her racing at the moment, she will be on speed early, include her into all bets. 6 LOVE SHACK has run two excellent races in succession, she caught the eye for third behind Sardinia Bay on the 5th of October, this race should work out perfectly for her, she will be just off the speed early, and she will be low flying late, watch her closely. 4 PEACE OF MIND is better than her recent form, she is much better up the straight at Hollywoodbets Kenilworth, watch for sharp improvement. 9 OCTOBER FEST ran a great race for third behind Queen Regent on the 15th of October, she has dropped a point in the ratings, and she gets the services of top jockey Andrew Fortune, her chances must be respected.

We are thrilled to announce a ground-breaking new chapter in your betting experience! We’ve partnered with Colossus Bets, a leading UK-based company, to bring you an exciting new product never before seen in the South African tote betting market.

What is Colossus Bets?

Imagine betting into massive, guaranteed prize pools, often reaching life-changing sums, with the added power of controlling your bet as the action unfolds. That’s the essence of Colossus Bets! It’s a revolutionary way to play, combining the thrill of traditional tote betting with unparalleled flexibility.

Understanding the Bet Types & Functionality:

Colossus Bets specialises in pool betting, where you bet against other players. The total money wagered is placed into a “pool”, and the prize money is shared among all winning tickets. The more people who play, the larger the potential jackpot! 

Some of the Bet Types on offer

• Pick 1×2: This is a straightforward pool where you predict the result of each match – Home Win (1), Draw (X), or Away Win (2).

 

• Correct Score: This is a more challenging but potentially more lucrative pool, where you must predict the exact final result of each match

 

• Both Teams to Score: This is for fans of goals and fast paced action. Your task is to simply predict whether or not both teams will score at least one goal in a selected series of matches

 

Innovative Functionality

• Cash Out: This feature allows you to lock in a profit before all matches (legs) in your ticket are completed. After each leg, Colossus bets will make you an offer to buy your ticket based on its current value. You can choose to accept the guaranteed payout or stay in the game for a chance at the full jackpot.

 

• Syndicate Betting: Colossus Bets offers a unique way to play through Syndicate Tickets, allowing Players to team up and increase their chances of winning. Creating a Syndicate – If you have a betting strategy or consider yourself a “Pro”, you can create a Syndicate Ticket and invite other Players to contribute towards the payment of the ticket. Joining a Syndicate – Alternatively, you can join a Syndicate Ticket that another Player has already created. When you contribute to a Syndicate Ticket, you will own a share of that ticket. This share is directly proportional to the amount of money you contributed. If the Syndicate Ticket wins, you will receive a proportionate share of any returns (such as dividends or cash-out proceeds) based on your contribution. In essence, Syndicate Tickets allows Players to pool their resources, share the risk, and share the rewards!

 

• Guaranteed Huge Sports Pools: Colossus Bets offers guaranteed prize pools often reaching life-changing proportions. This means greater potential payouts for a winning ticket!

 

• Consolation Prizes: For many pools, if you narrowly miss the jackpot by getting a number of the selections correct, you can still win a share of a consolation prize. This means that you can still get a payout even if your ticket isn’t a perfect winner.
