RACE BY RACE PREVIEWS: FAIRVIEW / GREYVILLE@2025.03.07

Fairview, 07.03.2025, Race 1, Gallops, 1000m, Turf, R78.000, 12:30GMT+2

Race Summary: WINTER WARFARE was only modest on debut. He did a lot better in his second start and can go one better this time. GOLDEN PALM might need further than this eventually but did show promise on her debut and should be right there at the finish. ICED MARMALADE makes her debut but is a filly by Danon Platina and she would not be a surprise winner. ACTION AMERICA makes his debut and could be ready for this. Stable companions ARLU and PICK A POMODORO may need this run.

Selections: #4 WINTER WARFARE, #5 GOLDEN PALM, #6 ICED MARMALADE, #2 ARLU

Fairview, 07.03.2025, Race 2, Gallops, 1400m, Turf, R75.000, 13:05GMT+2

Race Summary: ONE GIANT LEAP only found one better on the day on local debut and should go one better this time going a little bit further. Stable companion PRINCESS BEAUTIFUL has not shown much so far but could improve back on the grass. BEZONDER has not shown much in three starts but is likely to improve with blinkers, making her local debut. LAUGH TILL I CRY needs to find a few lengths to win a race but could earn some money. HAT MONTERA is improving and should contest the finish.

Selections: #4 One Giant Leap, #2 Bezonder, #5 Hat Montera, #3 Laugh Till I Cry

Fairview, 07.03.2025, Race 3, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R100.000, 13:40GMT+2

Race Summary: There has not been much between LOVEGRASS and BOMBER GIRL based on when they met in their last two runs. Jockey Richard Fourie is on LOVEGRASS and gets the narrow choice to score. These two really should be fighting out the finish as BOMBER GIRL has shown very good improvement of late. MYTHICAL DREAM is unreliable but not out of it entirely. YOU WIN AGAIN is probably better on the Polytrack. INDEBE MAYIBUYE took 9 starts to get out of the maiden ranks but is capable of improvement on local debut.

Selections: #1 Lovegrass, #2 Bomber Girl, #4 You Win Again, #3 Mythical Dream

Fairview, 07.03.2025, Race 4, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R81.000, 14:15GMT+2

Race Summary: ORIGINAL COPY looked good when scoring on debut last month. She could have more wins in her tank. ASPOESTERTJIE was consistent in KwaZulu-Natal and won a nice race, beating PERFECT TRUST on the Hollywoodbets Greyville Polytrack. Both are clearly not out of it on local debut. MARSHMALLOW may have found 1600m not ideal for her last time and can bounce back to be a real threat to these rivals. THING CALLED LOVE is unreliable but did win her latest start and can earn some money. MS PATTY won on local debut and could be better than her merit rating.

Selections: #2 Original Copy, #16 Perfect Trust, #3 Marshmallow, #1 Aspoestertjie

Fairview, 07.03.2025, Race 5, Gallops, 1000m, Turf, R95.000, 14:50GMT+2

Race Summary: Probably the most open race on this card and it may pay to include as many runners as possible in this leg of the Pick 6. KING’S RANSOM is in good form and should contest the finish. EXECUTOR returns from a break and whole not the most reliable, does have a winning chance. BETHEL is very speedy when in the mood and is clearly not out of it in this line-up. CAPTAIN TIK TOK is having his peak run and could surprise. PENDRAGON makes his local debut and could earn some money. MUNCHKIN ran well on local debut and should be included in all permutations.

Selections: #1 King’s Ransom, #8 Munchkin, #4 Bethel, #3 Executor

Fairview, 07.03.2025, Race 6, Gallops, 1400m, Turf, R75.000, 15:25GMT+2

Race Summary: ASINANTANGA looked an unlucky loser on local debut and can go one better this time around. GRAND ALLEGRO makes his local debut and would not be a surprise winner as he has run well on occasions in the Western Cape. BROOKSIDER and CLIFFIE CLAVIN need to do more to win a race but can earn some money. ANCHOR MAN returns from a break but can earn some money. AMERICAN PITBULL showed improvement last time out and can earn some money. SPRINGSTEEN can improve over this distance with Richard Fourie in the irons.

Selections: #1 Asinantanga, #2 Grand Allegro, #3 Brooksider, #5 Cheerful Charlie B

HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE, 07.03.2025, Race 1, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R90,000, 15:40GMT+2

Race Summary: RUBY RISING is lightly raced and coming along the right way. She looks ready to go close to winning and can be given serious each way claims. LONG STREET went close to winning last time and can finally go one more. SERPENTINE FIRE more than likely has plenty more to offer and has to be taken seriously and is a must for all bets. CATAVAR has a strong place chance and should win soon. Respect and include.

Selections: #6 RUBY RISING, #5 LONG STREET, #2 SERPENTINE FIRE, #12 CATAVAR

Fairview, 07.03.2025, Race 7, Gallops, 1900m, Turf, R95.000, 16:00GMT+2

Race Summary: HEART STEALER showed us what he is capable of with an impressive win in a handicap last time out. He picked up an 8-point penalty for that win but can follow up. GIMME MORE TIME did not show his best last time out but will do better this distance. JUAN CARLOS always gives of his best and should fight out the finish again. PAINITE needs to do more to beat these rivals but can earn some money. NOTHINGELSEMATTERS is back to his best and can get involved with the finish again.

Selections: #7 Heart Stealer, #2 Juan Carlos, #1 Gimme More Time, #9 Nothingelsematters

HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE, 07.03.2025, Race 2, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R160,000, 16:15GMT+2

Race Summary: TOP GUN comes from an in form stable and was far from disgraced in his post maiden run and will now be ridden by Gavin Lerena. Bright win chance. ICY BLAST brings Cape Town form into the race and can be expected to make a race of it – big chance. IMMAH has a strong place chance and INGQWELE is the suggested place value for the quartet.

Selections: #7 TOP GUN, #8 ICY BLAST, #4 IMMAH, #1 INGQWELE

Fairview, 07.03.2025, Race 8, Gallops, 2700m, Turf, R108.000, 16:35GMT+2

Race Summary: A good race to end a tricky card. FIREALLEY may be at his very best over shorter but can fight out the finish. ZATARA MAGIC has been at his best on the Polytrack of late but will not go down without a fight. BOURNEMOUTH reminded us what he is capable of with a solid win and can follow up if in the same mood. PEACE IN OUR WORLD is usually not too far behind in races of this nature and is not out of it. OFFICIAL SECRET is weighted to win and could relish this longer distance. WOMAN’S WORLD and GIDEON’S DAUGHTER take on the males but are not completely out of it.

Selections: #1 Firealley, #4 Bournemouth, #5 Peace In Our World, #6 Official Secret

HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE, 07.03.2025, Race 3, Gallops, 1600m, Turf, R90,000, 16:55GMT+2

Race Summary: PRINCE FLORIAN ran a good race last time when second to Deputy Chief and is now confidently selected to go one more and win his maiden – might be hard to oppose. THE GREEN GALLANT is very well tried but has more of a place chance than a winning one. Hard to predict when he is going to win as he has tried 33 times but is the type of horse that can never be ignored from any bets – respect and include. TREND MAKER and FOREST DRUM are must includes for the quartet.

Selections: #8 PRINCE FLORIAN, #7 THE GREEN GALLANT, #11 TREND MAKER, #2 FOREST DRUM

HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE, 07.03.2025, Race 4, Gallops, 1800m, Turf, R110,000, 17:30GMT+2

Race Summary: CHERRY OH BABY has been banging loudly at the door in Gauteng and taking the trip to KZN looks to be very hard to oppose. The one they all have to fear the most. STAR MAN is the value suggestion here as he has never been too far off the action – chance. HARUN AL RASHID nearly won last time and has obvious winning claims tonight. GREEN MILE has a place chance. There are others in with some claims but they might have to go some to peg back Cherry Oh Baby.

Selections: #4 CHERRY OH BABY, #5 STAR MAN, #11 HARUN AL RASHID, #3 GREEN MILE

HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE, 07.03.2025, Race 5, Gallops, 1800m, Turf, R90,000, 18:05GMT+2

Race Summary: EVENTIDOR ran an absolute cracker last time but is taking time to win again. Tonight looks to be the night! In form Ryan Munger will be in the saddle and they are the firm first choice. ANIMAL IMPACT despite the draw, should be right there at the finish. Gavin Lerena has been booked to do the honors. CONNOISSEUR can do way better than the last run and has each way claims and COUNT MARSH is one for the shortlist.

Selections: #6 EVENTIDOR, #13 ANIMAL IMPACT, #1 CONNOISSEUR, #3 COUNT MARSH

HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE, 07.03.2025, Race 6, Gallops, 2000m, Turf, R110,000, 18:45GMT+2

Race Summary: HODGEPODGE is in mustard form and holding it positively. She gets gate 1 and has a bright win chance. QUEEN AMINA looks to be a progressive filly and it would be no shock if she beat them all – bright chance. SASCHA’S DREAM should be in the first three and has serious claims. FRENCH TRIP won well last time and could follow up in what seems a competitive race.

Selections: #1 HODGEPODGE, #11 QUEEN AMINA, #2 SASCHA’S DREAM, #8 FRENCH TRIP

HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE, 07.03.2025, Race 7, Gallops, 1400m, Turf, R135,000, 19:20GMT+2

Race Summary: SAVANTRIX was ridden by Sean Veale the last time he won and tonight Sean is back in the saddle. Consistent form and has a strong winning chance but it is a competitive field. THISISWHATITMEANS caught the eye last time and can brag about having consistent form – serious chance. TYRCONNELL is another that has solid form and a huge chance. THE CAIN TRAIN has come from the Highveld with some fair form to help – chance.

Selections: #9 SAVANTRIX, #3 THISISWHATITMEANS, #6 TYRCONNELL, #5 THE CANE TRAIN

HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE, 07.03.2025, Race 8, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R90,000, 19:55GMT+2

Race Summary: PURPLE POWAHOUSE went close last time when second to his stable companion. He is confidently selected to go one more and get it all right. NOW I GOT YOU very seldomly runs an off race and should record another win soon – respect and include. COTTON RON was catching the eye last time and can never be dismissed from any bets. SUPER FAST is a must for the quartet.

Selections: #1 PURPLE POWAHOUSE, #8 NOW I GOT YOU, #9 COTTON RON, #6 SUPER FAST

HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE, 07.03.2025, Race 9, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R80,000, 20:30GMT+2

Race Summary: DAWN SURPRISE looks primed and cherry ripe for her second career win and is therefore the firm first choice. DI ROSA is coming back to form and as a result of that, is a must for all bets. DYNASTY’S LAST finished third last time and can get much closer – trifecta inclusion and is her stable mate, DRIVE BY.

Selections: #7 DAWN SURPRISE, #8 DI ROSA, #6 DYNASTY’S LAST, #2 DRIVE BY

 

Best Win: #7 HEART STEALER  #7 DAWN SURPRISE
