Race 1
4 GROOVEJET ran a lovely race last time when finishing strongly for second. The extra 200m should suit him down to the ground, he must have a big winning chance in this race. 7 CONGRESSMAN ran a great race last time here at Hollywoodbets Durbanville, he is progressive and must be included into all bet types. 8 WOOD WORLD is getting better and stronger with racing, he ran a decent race last time when beaten just under five lengths at the wire, with some luck in running, he should be amongst the places in this race. 3 AMANCIO has been slightly disappointing of late, he will need to improve quite a bit to threaten them at the finish, on his best form he can sneak into the quartets at a decent price.
(Brandon Bailey: 4 – 7 – 8 – 3)
Race 2
8 LADY SPRINGFIELD improved nicely last time when stepping up in trip behind Pentolina, she is clearly progressive and should love the further step up in trip to 1800m. This looks to be a good race for her to get a nice run in transit and she will take lots of beating in the first leg of the Bipot. 1 ENGLISH MISTRESS is knocking on the door in a big way, she never runs a bad race, again she must have a good each way chance on her best form. 9 DARLING GIRL steps up in trip, she will need to improve in a big way to turn the form around with Lady Springfield, If the race works out for her and the pace up in front is decent, there is no doubt she will be running on strongly into the minor places. 3 STYLE ICON ran a much better race last time, on her best form she can sneak into the quartets at a decent price.
(Brandon Bailey: 8 – 1 – 9 – 3)
Race 3
1 LOVE IS A ROSE comes back to the races from a small break, she is ultra consistent and there is no doubt she will have a good winning chance from a good draw. 7 OTTO LUYKEN won a terrific race last time when digging deep to win going away, he is still improving with racing and must have a good each way chance again. 3 PACAYA has been rested for 100 days, he has run with some of the best horses in South Africa, if the race works out for him and he doesn’t need the run badly, he will obviously have a good winning chance in this race. 5 RAPIDASH ran a decent enough race last time in the Winter Mile, he comes back from a small break and must have a place chance in a small field.
(Brandon Bailey: 1 – 7 – 3 – 5)
Race 4
4 KING PELLES really quickened up smartly last time to win a super race beating Mohandas. He is in great heart at the moment and must have a good winning chance again from a good draw. 1 DAIMYO comes back to the races from a small break, he looks to be a progressive stayer in the making, watch him closely from a good draw. 9 BLUE BAY was beaten by a very nice horse in his last start, he will need some luck from a tricky draw here at Hollywoodbets Durbanville, If the race works out for him with champion jockey Richard Fourie in the saddle, he will be right there at the finish. 10 GIMME MORE TIME quickened up beautifully in his last start to win well when travelling to Gqeberha, this looks to be a nice race for him to be super competitive again, include him.
(Brandon Bailey: 4 – 1 – 9 – 10)
Race 5
Tricky race! 1 SAIL THE SEAS looks to be a very smart horse in the making, he will need to improve further now that he is out the maidens and taking on hard knocking older horses, but from a good draw he should get the run of the race and hopefully his class can pull him through in a tough race, watch him closely leading up to the Cape Summer Season. 7 BIG UNIT should improve nicely from the rest and gelding, the yard is in great form, ignore his last run completely, he will be right there at a decent price. 10 DAS GUTE absolutely loves Hollywoodbets Durbanville, he will be low flying late, include him into all your bets. 3 KELP FOREST gets the perfect draw here, he is a very consistent individual that runs on powerfully late in his races, with some luck in running, he should have a good each way chance.
(Brandon Bailey: 1 – 7 – 10 – 3)
Race 6
4 LADY LOXTON ran a super race last time behind Philosophise when finishing second. She would have needed that run quite badly, the step up in trip from a good draw is a big plus, she must have a great winning chance at this level. 9 VERONIQUE always needs to be respected, she moved up a winner in her last start before getting tired the last 50m of the race, she likes to be held up in her races and then get produced late, if the race works out for her from a tricky draw, she will have a good winning chance. 13 CATTALEYA has found her best form over the 1400m trip, there is no doubt that it will be tough for her from a terrible draw and a big weight to shoulder, she can run on strongly, watch her closely late. 3 LOOK FORWARD never runs a bad race, she should get every chance from a neat draw, include her into all your bet types.
(Brandon Bailey: 4 – 9 – 13 – 3)
Race 7
6 DEAN STREET must have a good each way chance on his best form. He gets the perfect draw here at Hollywoodbets Durbanville, he will be stalking the speed and running at them strongly that last bit of the race. 1 SOOTY had absolutely no luck in his last start when finishing third, he is a lovely looking gelding that is still improving with racing, from a good draw he must have a winning chance, include him. 8 NIGHT BOMBER pretty much led them from start to finish to win a great race last time, he has plenty speed, if he can get away from the field at the right time, he can easily win a race like this. 9 RIVERSTONE is far better than his last start, he showed plenty pace out the gates on that occasion and then get very tired the last 200m, he should come on quite a bit from that run, watch him closely now that he gets the services of Richard Fourie.
(Brandon Bailey: 6 – 1 – 8 – 9)
Race 8
1 SOUTHERN SKIES should take a power of beating from a good draw. She won a gutsy race last time, the blinkers have been fitted which should help her tremendously, if she doesn’t need the run badly, she will be very hard to beat here. 7 NIGHT VIGIL bounced back to her best last time, she will need to improve even further to beat a horse like Southern Skies, but on her best form she can certainly be there amongst the places. 2 KYALAMI GIRL has been very disappointing, she is far better than her recent form, she will need a particular ride to get back to her best, don’t leave her out your bets. 9 MY FLOWER FATE returns to the races from a small break, this will be on the short side for her, she might be able to stay on nicely into the back end of quartets.
(Brandon Bailey: 1 – 7 – 2 – 9)
Race 9
4 TRES CHIC has taken some time to recapture her best form, she really stayed on strongly in her last start to run a creditable race behind stable companion Beneath The Moon. From a neat draw, she will be stalking the speed and running on strongly late, this looks to be a perfect race for her to return to winning ways. 1 TRY ME drops back in trip, she didn’t quite see out the 1400m trip in her last start, now that she is back sprinting, she can pop up at a decent price. 8 ON BOARD is way better than her last start, she has been rested for 84 days, on her best form she can easily trouble them in the finish. 10 BECKY SHARP is in great form at the moment, she unfortunately won’t have life easy from a terrible draw, if she can get some luck throughout the race, she will have a small each way chance.
(Brandon Bailey: 4 – 1 – 8 – 10)
