Trainer: Clinton Binda
Jockey: Chase Maujean
Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 7 (8 Runners)

His last three starts with the blinkers fitted have been decent. He is doing well at home and is showing good work. If all went well with his travels, he is expected to have a winning chance in this line-up.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:78. Decent latest despite excuses. Trainers only runner and can go close.

Race 3 – 13:05
1600m – All To Come MR 86 Handicap
8 – Ralph The Rascal
Breeding: Gimmethegreenlight (AUS) – Ice Link by Toreador (IRE)
Trainer: Alyson Wright
Jockey: Athandiwe Mgudlwa
Wgt: 59.5kg
Draw: 8 (8 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 4/1
He travelled too hard in his last start at Hollywoodbets Scottsville and did not go on with the effort. He returns to the 1600m which is his maximum distance and the stable have opted to remove the blinkers. It is a small field and he is expected to produce another competitive run.
Winning Form Comment: Blinkers OFF. Best MR:87. Finished right behind number 4 in latest. Chance.

Race 5 – 14:20
1800m – Soccer Any13 MR 65 Handicap (F & M)
4 – Fashionigma
Breeding: Master Of My Fate – All About Style (IRE) by Hawk Wing (USA)
Trainer: Alyson Wright
Jockey: Keagan de Melo
Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 4 (10 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 5/1
She jumps from a handy draw of four with Keagan de Melo in the saddle. She ran a good race in her last outing over 1900m on this course. She is fit and well heading into this race and if repeating her last run, she is capable of finishing in the money once again.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:80. Is 2.5kgs better off at the weights with number 10 on latest. Consider.

Race 5 – 14:20
1800m – Soccer Any13 MR 65 Handicap (F & M)
9 – You Deserve It
Breeding: Pathfork (USA) – Stargazer Pink by Jallad (USA)
Trainer: Gary Rich
Jockey: *Rachel Venniker -1.5kg
Wgt: 61.0kg
Draw: 9 (10 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 7/1
She was set to carry 61kgs but gets the services of Rachel Venniker who takes the 1.5kgs off her back. The main concern is her awkward draw of nine. She is doing well at home and if not in need of the run, she should be involved at the finish.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:76. Decent latest. Rachel’s allowance will assist and has claims.

Race 6 – 14:55
1400m – Track & Ball Gaming MR 69 Handicap (F & M)
7 – Kingsmeads Krystl
Breeding: Visionaire (USA) – Berlinetta by Jet Master
Trainer: Gareth van Zyl
Jockey: Athandiwe Mgudlwa
Wgt: 61.5kg
Draw: 7 (9 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 10/1
She steps back up to the 1400m which is better for her at this stage of her career. She is a filly that can be temperamental, but she is in a good space. This race will suit her and she can return to best form.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:81. Is held by number 5 on latest. Likes this C&D.

Breeding: Ideal World (USA) – Imperial Empress by Toreador (IRE)
Trainer: Dean Kannemeyer
Jockey: Keagan de Melo
Wgt: 55.0kg
Draw: 3 (9 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 7/1
He gave the impression that he doesn’t stay 1700m last time and drops back to the 1400m. This is the right race for him, and he carries a nice weight of 55kgs with Winning Form-sponsored jockey Keagan de Melo in the saddle. The stable will be disappointed if he does not finish in the first four.
Winning Form Comment: Gelded 2022.10.31. Best MR:72. The blinkers remain fitted and has claims if repeating penultimate run.

Draw: 7 (9 Runners)

He was due to run a month ago but had an elevated temperature. He is back in work and is doing very well at home. If not in need of this outing, he should be involved in the finish.
Winning Form Comment: Ex Binda C-2022.10.25. 2nd run after rest. Best MR:79. Fair latest in this class and should strip fitter.

Trainer: Gary Rich
Jockey: Tristan Godden
Wgt: 55.5kg
Draw: 8 (9 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 10/1

Winning Form Comment: Best MR:67. Is held by number 6 on latest. Has claims if repeating good penultimate run.

Jockey: Sean Veale
Wgt: 58.0kg
Draw: 9 (9 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 4/1
He produced a pleasing run over this course and distance after returning from a 17-week break. He has come on from the outing and we are hoping for a bit more luck from the widest draw of nine. He is expected to finish in the money.
Winning Form Comment: 2nd run after rest. Best MR:69. 3rd in comeback run and should strip fitter. Chance.
