Rival trainer Gavin Smith had a fabulous day just last Friday with seven winners, but Alan Greeff could strike this Friday at Fairview.
Polytrack racing is always difficult and Greeff has numerous runners on the day, but there are three that really stand out.
Admirals Chance in Race 1, a Maiden Plate over 1200m, has been a bit of a disappointment in that he has yet to win a race, but he will not get a much better opportunity than this.
Blinkers have helped the Admiral Kitten gelding and he clearly did too much early on when tiring late last time out.
Jockey Richard Fourie will know him better now and a patient ride could get him home ahead of his rivals over this shorter distance.
Sugarberry had a terrible draw for her jockey to deal with last time out and has given Fourie a similar task this time, but she could be improving and ahead of her mark.
The shorter distance could see them go a bit quicker than last time and if she gets a decent pace, she could be finishing best of all in Race 3, a MR 68 Handicap for fillies and mares over 1600m.
Star Of The South was a bitter disappointment when well backed to win his penultimate start.
Clearly the blinkers he tried that day had the opposite effect than intended and they were quickly removed.
The form of his comeback run when fourth behind Moon Game is good enough to see off his rivals in Race 5, a MR 80 Handicap over 1400m, and as he will be fitter this time, improvement is expected.
Do not be surprised if Greeff wins other races on this card.
