Breeding: Var (USA) – Sharp Mistress by Tamburlaine (IRE)
Trainer: Darryl Moore
Jockey: Stuart Randolph
Wgt: 57.5kg
Draw: 5 (12 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 4/1
He lands a useful draw here and on the back of some solid work at home, he certainly has the credentials to run into the money and earn a stake cheque, with this being a return to the course and distance where he went close to winning in his penultimate start.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:66. Latest was over too short. Consider.

Race 3 – 14:10
1200m – Gold Circle Horses To Follow Podcast FM 68 Handicap (F&M)
11 – Purple Nkanyezi
Breeding: Oratorio (IRE) – Bois De Boulogne by Trippi (USA)
Trainer: Garth Puller
Jockey: Luke Ferraris
Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 11 (12 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 5/1
She gets the blinkers fitted this time and the outside draw may be a blessing as far as keeping her off the rail is concerned. The plan will be to settle her just off the leading line and with this being on the Polytrack, she should be a very big runner off her current mark of 64.
Winning Form Comment: Blinkers ON. Best MR:88. Tried hard in latest over this c&d. Chance if confirms.
15 – Arctic Princess
Breeding: What A Winter – Rozelana by Al Mufti (USA)
Trainer: Gary Rich
Jockey: Reserve
Wgt: 61.0kg
Draw: * (12 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 12/1
She is doing very well at home and appears to be slightly ahead of the handicapper at this stage. If she manages to get a run here, she should be involved in the finish.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:75. Ignore latest when dislodged rider. Can get back to winning ways.

Race 6 – 15:55
1600m – www.trackandball.co.za FM 77 Handicap (F&M)
10 – Time To Roll
Breeding: Jackson – Arcetri Dawn (AUS) by Bel Esprit (AUS)
Trainer: Alyson Wright
Jockey: Richard Fourie
Wgt: 60.5kg
Draw: 10 (12 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 5/1
We’ll put a line through her last run where she seemed to get very worked up behind the starting stalls. As such, she will be fitted with the ear muffs for the canter down to the start this time around. Her work at home has been very good and with Richard Fourie up, she should be able to run into the money. The slight question mark may be that this is her first effort on the Polytrack.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:86. Is much better than latest. Will be doing best work late.
13 – You Deserve It
Breeding: Pathfork (USA) – Stargazer Pink by Jallad (USA)
Trainer: Clinton Binda
Jockey: Reserve
Wgt: 52.5kg
Draw: * (12 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 20/1
This division may be a too tough for her, so the stable may opt to withdraw her prior to race day and rather go for the 1400m MR 68 Handicap next Wednesday. A decision will be made and communicated to the public in due course.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:72. Decent local debut on this surface. Up in class but shoulders handy galloping weight.

Race 7 – 16:30
1400m – Gold Circle Racing YouTube Channel MR 71 Handicap
7 – White Cedar
Breeding: Bold Silvano – Chiffon by Grey Eminence (FR)
Trainer: Gary Rich
Jockey: Stuart Randolph
Wgt: 57.5kg
Draw: 7 (12 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 20/1
He has his stable debut for the Gary Rich stable and since arriving, he has settled in nicely and appears to be putting his best foot forward in his work at home. From draw 7, he should give a good account of himself.
Winning Form Comment: Ex Miller W G C-2021.02.01. 2nd run after rest. Best MR:79. First run for Rich camp. Capable of improvement.
8 – Masango Machine
Breeding: What A Winter – Lucky Tuesday (AUS) by Authorized (IRE)
Trainer: Peter Muscutt
Jockey: Jabu Jacobs (-1.5kg)
Wgt: 57.5kg
Draw: 8 (12 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 10/1
He is holding his form on the track after a pleasing gallop on the grass last week. Jabu Jacobs, claiming 1.5kgs, will ride jumping from an awkward 8 draw and this is his first run out the maidens where he returns to the poly so we will probably be able to see where we stand with him ability wise after this run.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:72. Won maiden well. Up in class, but looks to have scope.
