Trainer: Alyson Wright
Jockey: #Rachel Venniker -1.5kg
Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 2 (7 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 15/10
He showed good signs of a form return on the turf last time. This is the right merit rated race for him but the 1600m is not his ideal distance. He is fit and well heading into this race. The son of Elusive Fort is expected to be involved at the finish.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:78. Decent latest. Drops back to a mile and can go close.

Her last two runs with the ear muffs fitted have not been good and the stable have opted to remove the headgear. The daughter of Visionaire is doing well and is fit. If behaving herself in the starting stalls, she should show improvement.

Race 8 – 16:45
1000m – Hollywoodbets Bright Future MR 82 Handicap

Breeding: Soft Falling Rain – Sarasota by Kahal (GB)
Trainer: Gareth van Zyl
Jockey: *Brevan Plaatjies – 4.0kg
Wgt: 60.5kg
Draw: 4 (10 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 7/1
His last start must be ignored as he clipped heels at the 600m mark and stumbled badly. He has not had an ideal preparation heading into this race, but the stable wouldn’t be running him if they didn’t feel that he was ready. We are hoping to see him bounce back to his best form.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:89. Ignore latest. Drops back to minimum trip and can return to best form.
