RACE 1

The majority of the field step out for the very first time, so the market will be our best guide-watch for any strong support late on. With no exposed form to go on, breeding, stable confidence and parade ring impressions could prove crucial. The only runner with race experience didn’t show much on debut and was well beaten, that said, natural improvement second time out is always possible. (Brandon Bailey: 2 – 7 – 3 – 1)

The Jackpot could be the way to go at Hollywoodbets Greyville on Friday night the 27th of February. This exotic will kick off in race 4 and here are some comments for the Jackpot legs. HIGH QUEUE (5) comes from an in-form stable that are running at a very good strike rate! This gelding is taking time for the next victory but is running well and could be ready for the winner’s box again. HARUN AL RASHID (2) is a massive player for top honors. Ignore his last run – that puts him right near the top in the pecking order – go close. MOHAVE PRINCE (1) and TEE DOG (3) can never be dismissed from any perm. Race 5, DRICUS (2) has won two out of his last three starts. His last win showed guts and determination and off his rating of 75, he could be generously rated. He is the firm first suggestion as he has progression stamped all over him! WINTER WAVES (3) is always in form and always has strong each way claims. EVENTIDOR (9) is seven years old but winning and performing like a three-year-old – obvious chance and pretty much the same comment can be made for IBUTHO (8) – customary very competitive efforts should come from them. Race 6, the penultimate leg. DE VLUGGE (7) clicked through the gears smartly to win cozily last time under Keagan De Melo whom has stuck with the ride. There is no reason to suggest she cannot follow up. QHAWEKAZI (10) has solid form and solid each way claims. SPINMYANGELSPIN (1) clearly has some ability and can put her last run behind her. Chance as she seems very capable but it must be noted that stable rider Sean Veale has gone with the (10) horse. Must have been a tough call as both have bright chances. SIBERIAN WINTER (2) is one to take seriously. The final leg of the Pot is the seventh race. FATE OF FORTUNE (7) brings solid form into the contest, finished second to Magic Surprise last time and is confidently selected to go one more. UNITED NATION (1) needs not much introduction as his winning form on the surface is there for all to see. Ignore the last run and he can easily bounce right back to winning ways. CHARA SANDS (6) and SMORGASBOARD (2) need to be included on the shortlist.

Race 1: Preview: MIDNIGHT HOUR (8) is making giant strides of improvement and with the valuable weight off her back, should go close to winning. WATERMELON SUGAR (2) gets a cozy draw on debut and could be competitive first up – watch the betting trends as race time nears. WINTER BLESSING (3) has a strong place chance as does BELLIGERENT (5). (Warren Lenferna 8-2-3-5)

Race 2: Preview: DREAM DECISION (3) has been accepting the blinkers, gets a neat draw, weight off again and rates the one to beat. BLACK PLATINA (5) keeps running second but will surely get it all right one of these days – big runner. CAPTAIN’S DYNASTY (8) is starting to learn what racing is all about and can go very close. Respect and include for all bets. WONDERFUL TONIGHT (2) could be the value for the quartet as he can build on the last run which was his local debut. (Warren Lenferna 3-5-8-2)

Race 3: Preview: ETZEBETH (5) did well to get going again in the race last time to go close in third place. He is excellently bred and clearly still learning what racing is all about. This is his third run of his life and he gets cranked up to a distance he should relish. Sparkling winning chance. WANDER SKITT (4) is the interesting runner and could represent some value and give some cheek all the way home – respect and include. DEVIL’S PEAK (3) can start doing a touch better and could be the value for the places. MANIKONGO (1) is probably the best-bred horse on the card but he has not realized that just yet. His run on the poly last time was his best thus far – do not ignore this one as surely, he is better than his form suggests. (Warren Lenferna 5-4-3-1)

Race 4: Preview: HIGH QUEUE (5) comes from an in-form stable that are running at a very good strike rate! This gelding is taking time for the next victory but is running well and could be ready for the winner’s box again. HARUN AL RASHID (2) is a massive player for top honors. Ignore his last run – that puts him right near the top in the pecking order – go close. MOHAVE PRINCE (1) and TEE DOG (3) can never be dismissed from any quartet perm. (Warren Lenferna 5-2-1-3)

EVENTIDOR (9) is seven years old but winning and performing like a three-year-old – obvious chance and pretty much the same comment can be made for IBUTHO (8) – customary very competitive efforts should come from them.

CHARA SANDS (6) and SMORGASBOARD (2) need to be included on the shortlist. (Warren Lenferna 7-1-6-2)

Race 8: Preview: PROFESSOR LUPIN (1) starts from the ace gate and comes into the race with high confidence after beating The Mask last time and can follow up. His overall form is ultra-consistent. Stable mate, ULTRA QUICK (9) is the exacta selection and he can never be dismissed from any bets. ILHA DA ORANGE (5) should be in the first four and INDECENT PROPOSAL (2) is never far off the action and the same can be expected today – chance. (Warren Lenferna 1-9-5-2)
