2 – Imbejeje

Trainer: Glen Kotzen
Jockey: S’manga Khumalo
Wgt: 56.0kg
Draw: 2 (11 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 10/1
In her last start over 1200m, jockey Muzi Yeni felt that the distance was too far for her. She drops back to 1000m and with S’manga Khumalo in the irons, we are expecting to see improvement.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:78. Is 1.5kgs better off at the weights with number 3 on latest. Likes this distance.

Race 7 – 16:05
1200m – Marula Sprint (Non-Black Type)
11 – Spydas Corner
Breeding: What A Winter – Clarion Call by Kabool (GB)
Trainer: Duncan Howells
Jockey: Keagan de Melo
Wgt: 57.0kg
Draw: 11 (15 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 5/1
He has been running on over shorter distances in his last couple of runs. He is expected to be fully effective over the 1200m and although a competitive race, he is more than capable of a first three run.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:100. Ultra-consistent and will relish the step up in distance. Chance

Race 8 – 16:40
1600m – Hollywoodbets Bright Future Maiden Plate
1 – Mbanjwa Magic
Breeding: Visionaire (USA) – Deputy Ryder by Go Deputy (USA)
Trainer: Mark Dixon
Jockey: Keagan de Melo
Wgt: 59.0kg
Draw: 1 (14 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 33/1
He has been disappointing to date, but continues to put in nice work at home. He jumps from pole position and jockey Keagan de Melo knows him well. We are hoping to see him jump out the starting stalls on terms and show improvement.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:50. Poor recent form over shorter. Tries a mile and can improve from pole.

Race 8 – 16:40
1600m – Hollywoodbets Bright Future Maiden Plate
9 – Thunder Masala
Breeding: Global View (USA) – Scented Ash by Ashaawes (USA)
Trainer: Garth Puller
Jockey: Tristan Godden
Wgt: 59.0kg
Draw: 9 (14 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 20/1
He steps up to the 1600m which should suit him well. He may be green in his first run around the turn at Hollywoodbets Scottsville, but is improving all the time and can run into the placings.
Winning Form Comment: Recent form line has worked out well. Can improve.
