Fairview, 09.06.2023, Race 1, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R72.000, 12:30GMT+2
Race Summary: ERROLS LEGACY lost her way in her last two starts in KwaZulu-Natal but a change of trainer could spark improvement and she will be the one to beat if finding her best form. Trainer Alan Greeff has his runners in top form and he sends out a couple of newcomers. TIBETAN TEMPTRESS has Richard Fourie in the irons and could be the stable elect. Stablemate SI GIOCA is a Danon Platina filly. QUIRK OF FATE did not run too badly on debut and should make significant improvement. Watch the betting on the other newcomers as well.
Selections:
#3 Errols Legacy, #9 Tibetan Temptress, #7 Quirk Of Fate, #4 Fire Glow
Fairview, 09.06.2023, Race 2, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R72.000, 13:05GMT+2
Race Summary: AADEHYA had winners just ahead of him and behind him when third in a feature race on debut. That form has not really held up, but he should be the one to beat. He did disappoint on the Polytrack last time but returns to the turf and should fight out the finish. ARTURO showed promise when runner-up on his Polytrack debut. He tries the turf this time but should be right there at the finish. SINGLE FILE seems better than his last run on the Polytrack and is not out of it. Stable companion SEETHEBADGE has a place chance.
Selections:
#1 Aadehya, #2 Arturo, #7 Seethebadge, #9 Single File
Fairview, 09.06.2023, Race 3, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R70.000, 13:45GMT+2
Race Summary: WOODLAND RIDGE has not been disgraced in his two local runs and was pulled out of his intended run last week when they switched to the Polytrack. This is a weak field and he looks the right one. HOLLYWOOD STAR battled in KwaZulu-Natal without much success but can improve with trainer Gavin Smith. THIS TIME ROUND has some fair recent form and can get involved in the finish. WESTERN JACK and HAMLET have place chances. FLY BETTER is probably better on turf so could contest the finish.
Selections:
#1 Woodland Ridge, #2 Hollywood Star, #7 Fly Better, #5 Hamlet
Fairview, 09.06.2023, Race 4, Gallops, 1000m, Turf, R70.000, 14:20GMT+2
Race Summary: A competitive-looking race. KOMESANS PASSION has been disappointing since her first two runs but joins trainer Gavin Smith and would not be a surprise winner on local debut. Trainer Alan Greeff sends out a newcomer in the form of Lancaster Bomber filly THE LADY LOVE. Greeff has been deadly when his newcomers have been supported in the betting so keep an eye out. HEART OF ETERNITY has lost her way of late but has a winning chance in this line-up. MEDITERANEANGODDES has not been disgraced in her last two starts and should be right there once again.
Selections:
#7 Komesans Passion, #8 The Lady Love, #1 Heart Of Eternity, #6 Mediteraneangoddes
Fairview, 09.06.2023, Race 5, Gallops, 1000m, Turf, R73.000, 14:55GMT+2
Race Summary: Trainer Alan Greeff should have a good afternoon and his juvenile filly, THREE ROCKS, could be well above her current rating. She ran well on debut and followed up with an impressive win. She may in time be better over further but it would not be a surprise is she proved too good for these rivals. KILMONIVAIG is improving and coming off an easy win so deserves respect. ESTHER may be looking for further but has a place chance. QUICK COUNT is speedy and could play a minor role. RIDE THE LIGHTNING has some fair recent form and is not out of it. AIMEE’S IDOL is back on the turf and should run well
Selections:
#1 Three Rocks, #7 Ride The Lightning, #5 Esther, #6 Quick Count
Fairview, 09.06.2023, Race 6, Gallops, 1800m, Turf, R95.500, 15:25GMT+2
Race Summary: A small field but some decent runners. CHERRY ANO has not done much wrong so far and could prove up to this task. Jockey S’manga Khumalo knows how to get the best out of this colt and he can dominate them. PEACE IN OUR WORLD has not won for some time but will be doing his best work at the finish. BLONDE ACT has been in very good form all year and will be a threat. MEDLERS TART has been a revelation in the Eastern Cape and we should see how good she really is against these runners.
Selections:
#2 Cherry Ano, #3 Blonde Act, #4 Medlers Tart, #1 Peace In Our World
Fairview, 09.06.2023, Race 7, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R95.500, 15:55GMT+2
Race Summary: Two tough races to end the card and we need to go wide in both of them. SLINGS AND ARROWS did not show his best form on the Polytrack last time out and can bounce back and score. TEATRO on the other hand has been much improved of late on that surface and has a winning chance back on the turf. GALLIC TRIBE makes his local debut after a change in trainer and is not out of it. FATHER’S FROST makes his local debut and deserves respect if he is at his best. TRANSACT is another who could benefit after a change of trainer and is a decent sprinter when in the mood.
Selections:
#5 Slings And Arrows, #2 Teatro, #3 Father’s Frost, #9 Transact
Fairview, 09.06.2023, Race 8, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R74.500, 16:25GMT+2
Race Summary: Juvenile WAZ WOUTER smashed them on the Polytrack in his first attempt with blinkers and has some useful form. He could be well better than his merit rating suggests but takes on a big field of hard knockers. PICTURE THE MOMENT is course-and-distance suited and should be right there at the finish once again. JEAN PAUL seems to save his best runs for this track and trip and can earn some more money. WIND SOCK ran on well last time and is clearly not out of it. TRAVEL MASTER and BURNING WINGS could be worth considering.
Selections:
#5 Waz Wouter, #14 Picture The Moment, #10 Wind Sock, #8 Travel Master
Best Win: #1 WOODLAND RIDGE
Best Value Bet:
Best Longshot: #5 SLINGS AND ARROWS
