Sunday 25 September 2022
Hollywoodbets Greyville
Race 3 – 13:45
1800m – Star Merchant Maiden Plate
7 – Atlantic City
Breeding: Quasillo (GER) – Gilded Tigress by Tiger Ridge (USA)
Trainer: Clinton Binda
Jockey: Calvin Habib
Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 7 (13 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 15/10
He has good recent form lines with the blinkers fitted. He does have an awkward draw of seven, but has the early gate speed to get across without using up too much energy. Calvin Habib knows him well and we are hoping that he can shed his maiden tag.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:73. Consistent recent form. Should be one of the leading contenders.

Race 3 – 13:45
1800m – Star Merchant Maiden Plate
13 – El Rey Viene
Breeding: William Longsword – Brave Bid by Qui Danzig (USA)
Trainer: Duncan Howells
Jockey: *Kyle Strydom
Wgt: 56.0kg
Draw: 13 (13 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 10/1
He raced very green in his last start from draw one and was caught way too far back in the race. He will enjoy the step up to 1800m and with the blinkers fitted, the horse is capable of racing from a more prominent position. If reproducing his homework, he is capable of running into the money.
Winning Form Comment: Blinkers ON. He needed his first two starts. Has a wide draw to overcome.

Race 8 – 16:40
1400m – Winning Media Maiden Plate (F & M)
10 – Shanta’s Pride
Breeding: William Longsword – Cassie O’Malley by Jet Master
Trainer: Peter Muscutt
Jockey: Tristan Godden
Wgt: 57.0kg
Draw: 10 (11 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 5/10
She has galloped smartly in the lead up to this race and has progressed since her promising debut effort. She has been known to make a respiratory noise in work and races. She does have a wide draw of ten to overcome, but she meets the right field and has a strong winning chance.
Winning Form Comment: Runner-up first time out and the form line has been franked. The one to beat.
