The Hollywood Syndicate has two runners carded at Turffontein Standside on Monday 02 January 2023. See what we are expecting here.

Monday 02 January 2023
Turffontein Standside

Race 3 – 13:25

1400m – Play Soccer 6, 10 & 13 Maiden Plate

5 – Fish Eagle
Breeding: Rafeef (AUS) – Fish River (AUS) by Canford Cliffs (IRE)
Trainer: Clinton Binda
Jockey: Ryan Munger
Wgt: 59.0kg
Draw: 8 (12 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 5/1

He has been a tad disappointing to date and we are hoping that the step up to 1400m will suit him. Ryan Munger retains the ride and with a bit of luck from his awkward draw of eight, he is expected to finish in the placings.

Winning Form Comment: Has placed in both starts under Munger and can run into the money.

Race 6 – 15:05

1400m – Three Troikas Stakes (Grade 3)

4 – Queen Of Smoke
Breeding: Gimmethegreenlight (AUS) – Kwinta by Kahal (GB)
Trainer: Stuart Pettigrew
Jockey: Randall Simons
Wgt: 58.0kg
Draw: 7 (8 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 2/1

She takes her place in the Grade 3 Three Troikas Stakes and it is a competitive field. The daughter of Gimmethegreenlight was unlucky last time as she lost the race on objection. She is in a good space heading into this race and she has an each way chance.

Winning Form Comment: Best MR:92. In a rich vein of form. Lost latest in the boardroom and runs well for Simons. Respect.
