Race 4 – 14:10
1000m – Racing240 For Racing. For You Maiden Plate
3 – Old Fashioned
Breeding: Canford Cliffs (IRE) – Cuvee Brut by Count Dubois (GB)
Trainer: Clinton Binda
Jockey: Kabelo Matsunyane
Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 6 (8 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 3/1
He never travelled in the early stages of his last start and the stable have re-fitted the blinkers to help him concentrate. The son of Canford Cliffs has taken that run well and Winning Form-sponsored Jockey Kabelo Matsunyane retains the ride. We are hoping to see him put his best foot forward and he has a first three chance.
Winning Form Comment: Blinkers ON. Best MR:76. Fair latest despite excuses. Gets blinkers re-fitted.

Trainer: Clinton Binda
Jockey: Kabelo Matsunyane
Wgt: 62.0kg
Draw: 8 (17 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 10/1
He ran an encouraging race over this distance at Turffontein last time. The son of Duke Of Marmalade drops in class and should not have any issues carrying the 62kgs. He is a horse with soundness issues and if repeating his last outing, he should have a good chance.
Winning Form Comment: 2nd run after rest. Best MR:97. Improved latest against stronger. Must include.
