Hollywoodbets Greyville
Race 1 – 11:10
400m – World Sports Betting 400m Dash
6 – Iphiko – SCRATCHED (Off Feed)
Breeding: Trippi (USA) – Valor Red by Western Winter (USA)
Trainer: Mike de Kock
Jockey: Richard Fourie
Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 6 (9 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 2/1
She returns from a 17-week and needs a gallop. The daughter of Trippi is speedy and the 400m should not take a lot out of her. Winning Form-sponsored jockey Richard Fourie takes the ride and we are hoping for a positive effort.
Winning Form Comment: Rested 17 wks. Best MR:107. Quick out the gates. Brings attractive Western Cape form lines.

Trainer: Peter Muscutt
Jockey: Craig Zackey
Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 10 (13 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 2/1
He has come through his encouraging debut run in good order and has stripped down a little bit more. There are quite a lot of first timers in the race and if putting his best foot forward, he should be involved in the fight to the finish.
Winning Form Comment: Eye-catching debut on this course. Big chance if relishing the extra 200m on offer.

Race 5 – 13:25
1000m – The Independent On Saturday Sports Maiden Plate (F & M)

Breeding: Gimmethegreenlight (AUS) – Jade Vine by Argonaut
Trainer: Peter Muscutt
Jockey: Richard Fourie
Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 3 (9 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 16/10
She does appear to be stronger and is maturing. She is ideally drawn in barrier three and the blinkers will remain fitted. There are four unraced horses in this contest. The daughter of Gimmethegreenlight should get a good run in transit and she is set to run another honest race.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:64. Not beaten far in both local runs. Should be one of the leading contenders.

She was very impressive when winning her last start and she is doing very well at home. The daughter of Rafeef takes a rise in class, but she has earned her stripes and deserves her place in this field. The stable is very happy with her work and we are hoping for a bold showing.

She was an easy winner when shedding her maiden tag over this distance at Hollywoodbets Scottsville last time. She has been working well and the stable are happy with her heading into this race. It is always difficult when stepping out the maidens, but she is expected to run a positive race.
Winning Form Comment: 3rd run after rest. Comfortable maiden winner and should be cherry-ripe. Has scope.
