South Africa Horse Racing Previews: FAIRVIEW@2023.07.14
Fairview, 14.07.2023, Race 1, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R70.000, 12:40GMT+2
Race Summary: TELIO ran a lot of fair races in KZN without winning but gets a golden opportunity to win on local debut. Even a switch to Polytrack if it rains will not dent his chance of a first victory. LADY CHARTOUCHE showed promise on debut but has regressed since then. She did not run badly last time out and could earn some money. MISS TUCKER has been consistent of late and could contest the finish. MAGENTA has run well on the turf and should fight out the finish. FLY BETTER is better on the turf and could finish in the money.
Selections:
#1 Telio, #4 Magenta, #2 Lady Chartouche, #3 Miss Tucker

Race Summary: BABY LOVE ran a much-improved race in her second start but has disappointed twice since then. A move to the Eastern Cape could spark improvement and she joins a trainer who is fighting for the Easten Cape Champion Trainer Award so can win on local debut. AMAZING COLOURS has been consistent without winning so far but should be right there at the finish once again. TIBETAN TEMPTRESS was supported to win on debut but fluffed her lines with a slow start. She could make vast improvement and has to be considered a possible winner.
Selections:
#1 Amazing Colours, #2 Baby Love, #8 Tibetan Temptress, #7 Symbol Of Love
Fairview, 14.07.2023, Race 3, Gallops, 1000m, Turf, R70.000, 13:50GMT+2
Race Summary: AADEHYA ran a cracking debut against winners so it has been a bitter disappointment for his connections that he has failed to win since then. This course and distance should really suit him and he does look hard to oppose. MIRACULOUS MAN has improved since moving to the Eastern Cape and should contest the finish once again. WESTERN JACK seems to prefer the turf and could finish in the money. Snaith Racing-trained WILLIAM WEST has been very unreliable but is quite capable of winning this if in the mood.
Selections:
#6 Aadehya, #10 William West, #1 Miraculous Man, #2 Western Jack
Fairview, 14.07.2023, Race 4, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R78.000, 14:25GMT+2
Race Summary: A big field handicap but there was a lot to like about the run from FIRST ORIGIN last time out. The gelding won well on debut and was thought good enough to have a crack at a feature race in the Western Cape (unsuccessful). He may have just needed his last run when third behind some fair juvenile winners and should strip fitter this time. DAWN OF A NEW ERA ran well on local debut and can go one better. NARCOS and BETHEL are unreliable but could earn some money. WOODLAND RIDGE is coming off a nice maiden win. COASTAL PATH is better than the last run and should be a danger back on the turf. POMODORO MAGIC has a place chance.
Selections:
#2 First Origin, #3 Dawn Of A New Era, #7 Coastal Path, #6 Woodland Ridge
Fairview, 14.07.2023, Race 5, Gallops, 1400m, Turf, R84.500, 15:00GMT+2
Race Summary: An interesting race. Snaith Racing have sent down BONIKA who has been disappointing this year. She is out at the weights, but one needs to trust his judgement and she could be ready to bounce back and score. EKORIA is best weighted but has fluffed her lines of late. If showing her best side she will be a big runner. DANCETILDAYLIGHT makes her local debut and could be a threat. LADY MISTICO was full of running when scoring on the Polytrack last time out and has more to offer. DAUGHTER OF ZEUS is better on the turf so her last two Polytrack runs are best ignored. CHERE FOR ME has a place chance.
Selections:
#4 Bonika, #11 Lady Mistico, #10 Dancetildaylight, #3 Ekoria
Fairview, 14.07.2023, Race 6, Gallops, 1600m, Turf, R93.000, 15:35GMT+2
Race Summary: A competitive race. STEINBECK has not been beaten far in his recent runs in the Western Cape and that is usually good enough form to win at this centre. MOON GAME returned to form with a nice win last time out but will carry a penalty. YOU KNOW WHO returns to the turf and could be the surprise package. ALINGALONGA has won twice on the Polytrack of late so is a surprise choice ride for Richard Fourie. CENTRAL CITY is holding form and could contest the finish. So too could stable companion SECRET IS OURS. LAST STORM and FOREST SPY are two others who could get involved with the finish.
Selections:
#4 Steinbeck, #7 Central City, #8 Forest Spy, #1 Moon Game
Fairview, 14.07.2023, Race 7, Gallops, 1800m, Turf, R100.000, 16:10GMT+2
Race Summary: A tough race to be confident in but we should get a decent run out of NAVY STRENGTH. He has always shown promise and made all to beat some useful rivals last time out. GRAZINGINTHEGRASS is ultra-consistent and will not go down without a fight. MOUNT ANDERSON has ability but does not always show it. FIND ME UNAFRAID could improve after a change of trainer. CHERRY ANO is very game and should also be right there at the finish once again.
Selections:
#3 Navy Strength, #7 Cherry Ano, #1 Grazinginthegrass, #2 Mount Anderson
Fairview, 14.07.2023, Race 8, Gallops, 1900m, Turf, R78.500, 16:45GMT+2
Race Summary: SUGERBERRY is over the right course and distance and could be of some value for each-way players. Stable companion PHOENIX has Richard Fourie in the irons and could contest the finish once again. DOUBLE CHECK has won at this course and has made the trip from Cape Town so deserves the utmost respect. HEY SIRI and DAME OF FLAMES are unreliable but are also not out of it. GET IT DONE and VENUS DE MILO are capable of better than their last runs suggest and could pop up as well.
Selections:
#3 Sugarberry, #2 Double Check, #1 Phoenix, #5 Dame Of Flames
Best Win: #1 TELIO
Best Value Bet:
Best Longshot: #3 SUGARBERRY
