Race 1
1 GOODNESSGRACIOUSME ran a lovely race on debut, she gets the perfect draw here and she gets the services of champion jockey Richard Fourie, with natural improvement she will go very close to winning. 7 MIRACULOUS was only beaten just over two lengths on debut, she was drawn poorly on that occasion at Hollywoodbets Durbanville, there is no doubt with the right run in transit, she will be involved in the finish. 10 BACK AT THE GEORGE moved up really well last time to run a cracking second, she unfortunately hasn’t drawn well here, if she can get some luck from a tricky barrier gate, she could sneak into the places. 5 RAHHABBA ran a decent race on debut, she should improve, include her into all your bets.
(Brandon Bailey: 1 – 7 – 10 – 5)

4 AFRIQUE ran a terrific race on debut behind a very smart horse, he was staying on well into the closing stages behind Empire State, he gets a good draw here and he will take a power of beating with natural improvement. 7 GREEN GARNET comes back to the races after a long rest, he has changed stables in the process, on his best form he can certainly win a race like this. 9 ARISTOTLE has been rested and gelded, he ran a lovely race at Hollywoodbets Kenilworth in his last start, if he can beat the draw here, he will be very competitive. 8 ELUSIVE BLACK ran a super race on debut, he looks like the type that will get better and stronger with more racing, watch him closely.

4 OCTOBER FEST gets the perfect opportunity here to exit the maiden ranks, she is very well related, and she gets a good draw in a race that is lacking strong form, she will take a power of beating. 7 ENGLEFIELD GREEN ran a decent race last time behind Beware The Bomb, she is still improving, with the right run in transit here, she will be a huge danger to October Fest. 10 PINK PIGEON finished second on debut behind a nice filly, the form of that race has worked out beautifully, if she can build on that first run, she will have a nice place chance. 9 TRUE HORIZON will need to improve quite a bit to win a race like this, on her best form she might be able to sneak into the Quartets.
