Race 1
2 MRS SHACKLETON ran a cracking race against winners last time, she fought hard all the way to the line when finishing second behind Casino Ace, with a similar performance she will go very close to winning. 4 ELSINORE was unfortunately scratched at the gates in his last start, he absolutely took off to run a great second behind Shipindani at Hollywoodbets Durbanville on the 19th of October, he is still improving and will go very close with a repeat performance of that run. 8 FENCING CAPTAIN was gelded on the 5th of November, he is a speedy type that will try and lead them from start to finish, include him into all bets. 5 TOWNSMAN will need to improve significantly to win, his form is just fair and he might be able to sneak into the Quartets.
(Brandon Bailey: 2 – 4 – 8 – 5)
Race 2
7 ROUGAROUIN slowly started to drop to a very competitive rating when finishing a lovely third behind Augusta Blue in his last start, he unfortunately carries a big weight on Wednesday afternoon which won’t make life easy for him, but on his best form he will be right there in the finish again. 1 GRAVITY ran a fair race last time, off this mark in a race that is lacking strong and consistent form, he must have a good each way chance. 4 ELECTRIC FEELS has been in tremendous form of late, she needs a particular ride, if things work out for this mare, she will be running on strongly late. 2 XPLICIT CONTENT has run some decent races, he likes to race up on speed and should have a good place chance in this tricky looking race.
(Brandon Bailey: 7 – 1 – 4 – 2)
Race 3
4 ALEX MILLER ran on strongly behind Goodnessgraciousme in her last start when finishing third, she is a progressive filly that will go very close in this race from a good draw. 3 WHITE WATERS ran a lovely race behind Lavender Bay last time when finishing third, she was drawn badly on that occasion and stayed on really well all the way to the line, from a good draw here, she will be very competitive. 1 SPINMYANGELSSPIN was very disappointing when heavily supported in the market behind Berry’s Boogie on the 5th of November, she is much better than that performance and should improve lengths now that she steps up in trip, watch her closely. 8 TAP SHOES never really got into the race from a wide draw last time, she might be able to earn if she can improve from that performance.
(Brandon Bailey: 4 – 3 – 1 – 8)
Race 4
7 NATIVE RULER ran a great race behind a very smart horse last time, the formlines of that race have worked out really well, he should love the step up in trip and will be very hard to beat. 2 AFRIQUE is a nice big colt that really enjoyed the 1600m trip last time, he ran a super race when finishing second behind Gnarly from a wide draw at Hollywoodbets Durbanville, now that he gets a good draw, he will go very close. 11 GRAN CANARIA did everything right on debut when finishing fourth behind King Viserys, he was poorly drawn on that occasion and still managed to finish just under one length behind the winner, with some luck in running, he should be able to earn again for the connections. 1 RED DAWN gets the blinkers fitted; on his best form he will have a nice place chance.
(Brandon Bailey: 7 – 2 – 11 – 1)
Race 5
5 TOTHEMOONANDBACK has been very consistent of late, his last run behind Groovejet was excellent, this looks to be the perfect race for him, and he will take lots of beating on his best form. 1 OZARK was extremely gutsy in his last race when winning and beating Hang Out The Stars, he hit the front a long way from home and still managed to find plenty in the finish, Richard Fourie sticks with this consistent gelding and will be given every chance again from a good draw, include him into all bet types. 4 GNARLY quickened up well to exit the maiden ranks on the 26th of October, he will need to improve even further to win again, but his in good form and must be respected. 2 SUMMER NIGHT CITY gets a further rating drop, she might be able to sneak into the places at a decent price.
(Brandon Bailey: 5 – 1 – 4 – 2)
Race 6
3 DREAM SEARCHER ran on strongly from a wide draw behind Ozark on the 9th of November when finishing third, from a good draw here she will have the run of the race and will go very close to winning. 5 VERONIQUE steps up in trip again to 1400m, her sprinting form has been very good, at this level she will always have a good each way chance. 9 HANG OUT THE STARS will need some luck in running from a wide draw, her recent run behind Ozark was very good, she is extremely game and consistent, watch her closely. 4 BLACK PATH had no luck last time and still managed to run a decent race behind Senhora Victoria, she will need to improve a good few lengths to win, but with a similar performance of her last start, she can definitely finish amongst the places.
(Brandon Bailey: 3 – 5 – 9 – 4)
Race 7
5 MIRACULOUS quickened up in devastating fashion when beating Englefield Green on the 5th of November at Hollywoodbets Kenilworth, the yard think highly of this filly, she will love the step up in trip and will be very hard to beat. 1 SWIATEK could be absolutely anything, she beat Miraculous in a close finish on debut, from a good draw and with natural improvement on the cards, she must be respected in a huge way. 9 FAMILY POWER has unfortunately drawn poorly for this Class 4 event, her last run behind Scarlet Macaw was very good, with a similar performance here, she will be a big danger to them all in the finish. 6 Qhawekazi improved dramatically in her last start when finishing fourth from a wide draw, if she can back that run up here, she will have a good money chance.
(Brandon Bailey: 5 – 1 – 9 – 6)
Race 8
3 LUHAMBA PHAMBILI won extremely well last time when beating Roman Agent, the form of that race has worked out perfectly, he is a smart gelding that likes to race up on speed, he will be very hard to beat in this race and probably one of the better bets on the card. 9 TENANGO returned to the races from a long rest and won with authority in his last start, he travelled beautifully through the race and then quickened up like a smart horse in the making, he will be attacking the line hard and will be a huge danger for Luhamba Phambili. 4 ELUSIVE WINTER needed his last run, he should be cherry ripe now and could earn some money for the connections on his best form. 2 ICY BLAST gets a nice rating drop, he has been running against stronger in the past, watch him closely.
(Brandon Bailey: 3 – 9 – 4 – 2)
Race 9
7 ROYAL LYTHAM moved up really well in her last start when finishing second behind December Dawn, her recent form is definitely good enough to win a race like this. 5 GRUE OF ICE gets a further rating drop, she ran a lovely race on the 16th of November when finishing fourth, at this level she will always be competitive and must have a nice money chance. 6 UNITED WE STAND should appreciate the drop in trip, with some cover early and with no weight on her back, she can run into the places at a decent price. 9 WHY NOT JACKIE will appreciate racing back up the straight at Hollywoodbets Kenilworth, she needs cover early, if the race works out for her, she will be storming home late at a big price, include her into all bets.
(Brandon Bailey: 7 – 5 – 6 – 9)
