Race Summary: Summary: QUANABI (11) is seldom far off the winner and although she has a wide draw here she has been taking on stronger. QUEEN BOMI (3) has made steady recent improvement. She is an old hand and should do well on the poly. FIELDS OF GREEN (6) is still improving and the drop in trip should suit. LADY MACBETH (4) enjoyed the drop in class last start and a repeat can see her into the money again.

Selections:

#3 QUEEN BOMI, #1 DUCHESS OF GOLD, #6 FIELDS OF GREEN, #4 LADY MACBETH

HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE POLYTRACK, 05.06.2023, Race 6, Gallops, 1600m, Poly, R100,000, 15:10GMT+2

Race Summary: Summary: Difficult handicap. TIME TAKER (9) does not have the best of draws but has been up against much stronger opposition of late. As an older horse he could take to the poly and has a top rider aboard. TOM’S ACT (6) has not been far back at recent outings. He goes well on the poly and the stable is in form. CORSICAN (3) is down in class and has shown steady form since shedding his maiden. FEVER (1) had a tough draw last start and gets pole here. He loves the poly and can feature.

Selections:

#9 TIME TAKER, #6 TOM’S ACT, #3 CORSICAN, #1 FEVER

HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE POLYTRACK, 05.06.2023, Race 7, Gallops, 1600m, Poly, R100,000, 15:50GMT+2

Race Summary: Summary: Wide open handicap. WINTER WAVES (2) had a difficult draw to overcome last start but has been holding form well. With a better draw he should give another good account of himself. EAGLE ALLEY (1) makes his poly debut. He boasts some consistent Highveld form and as an older horse could made sudden improvement on the synthetic surface. He has a light weight and the best of the draw. CONGO COMPAQ (6) needed his last start and seemed to enjoy the soft. He has done well on the poly. IMMEASURABLE (11) has a wide draw but is seldom far off and goes well on the poly.

Selections:

#2 WINTER WAVES, #1 EAGLE ALLEY, #6 CONGO COMPAQ, #11 IMMEASURABLE

HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE POLYTRACK, 05.06.2023, Race 8, Gallops, 1600m, Poly, R100,000, 16:25GMT+2

Race Summary: Summary: SKY VELOCITY (9) is overdue a maiden win after four successive second placings. She stays the trip. AFRICAN BEAT (7) has smart form over sprints and steps up in trip. If she stays she will be a big runner. DUEL AGENT (3) caught the eye in her sprint debut. This trip should be more within her compass.  SACRED LILY (1) has improved at her last two. Lightly raced with the best of the draw and could surprise.

Selections:

#9 SKY VELOCITY, #7 AFRICAN BEAT, #3 DUAL AGENT, #1 SACRED LILY

Best Win: #3 QUEEN BOMI

Best Value Bet: #3 NOBLE STORM

Best Longshot: #1 EAGLE ALLEY
