Hollywoodbets Greyville

Race 2 – 13:10
1000m – Catch KZN Racing via live streaming on www.galloptv.co.za Maiden Plate

8 – Lions Eye
Breeding: Silvano (GER) – Sea Cat by Var (USA)
Trainer: Stuart Ferrie
Jockey: Sean Veale
Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 8 (12 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 33/1

He returns from a 43-week break and is having his first run for Stuart Ferrie. His preparation heading into this race has gone well. The yard is of the opinion that he may need this outing as he hasn’t had a grass gallop. We are hoping to see him running on at the finish.

Winning Form Comment: Ex De Kock M F-2023.11.25. Rested 43 wks. First run in KZN. May need it.

Race 3 – 13:45
1600m – Follow In The Box Seat Podcast Maiden Plate (F & M)

12 – Umzolozolo
Breeding: Elusive Fort – Our Princess by Western Winter (USA)
Trainer: Michael Roberts
Jockey: #Rachel Venniker -1.5kg
Wgt: 57.0kg
Draw: 12 (12 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 4/1

She has been disappointing to date as she is not bringing her homework to the races. The stable are going to fit her with blinkers, and we are hoping that the headgear brings out the best in her. With luck from the widest draw, we are hoping to see her finish in the placings.

Winning Form Comment: Best MR:76. Has claims on fair penultimate effort. Drawn widest.

Race 5 – 14:55
1800m – www.galloptv.co.za MR 95 Handicap

2 – Trois Trois Quatre
Breeding: Rafeef (AUS) – Badger Creek by Ideal World (USA)
Trainer: Mike de Kock
Jockey: Serino Moodley
Wgt: 58.5kg
Draw: 2 (8 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 7/1

He is much better than his last start at Hollywoodbets Scottsville. He is doing very well at home and has shown improvement in his work. Winning Form-sponsored Jockey Serino Moodley is booked to ride and from draw two, he should be a big runner.

Winning Form Comment: Best MR:92. Better than moderate latest. Can feature if suited to this course.

Race 7 – 16:05
1200m – Gallop TV YouTube Channel MR 88 Handicap

3 – Phutulicious
Breeding: Fire Away (USA) – Centimes (GB) by Shamardal (USA)
Trainer: Alyson Wright
Jockey: Athandiwe Mgudlwa
Wgt: 58.5kg
Draw: 3 (11 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 7/1

He is better than his last start over 1400m as he fly jumped leaving the starting stalls, took a keen hold and raced wide around the turn. The son of Fire Away is going into this race fit and well. He drops back to 1200m and from his good draw of three, we are expecting a much better effort.

Winning Form Comment: 2nd run after rest. Best MR:85. Better than latest. Reunites with Mgudlwa and can improve.

Race 8 – 16:40
1000m – Hollywoodbets Bright Future MR 82 Handicap (F & M)

2 – Patants Heir – SCRATCHED (Pulled Muscle)
Breeding: William Longsword – Cosmic Light by Querari (GER)
Trainer: Gareth van Zyl
Jockey: Craig Zackey
Wgt: 62.0kg
Draw: 2 (14 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 3/1

She is doing well at home and is coming on with every run. With the rain that is predicted, she should enjoy racing on a softer track. The stable feels that the drop to 1000m should not be a concern and we can look forward to a competitive effort.

Winning Form Comment: 3rd run after rest. Best MR:86. Decent latest and the form line has been franked. Merits respect.
