RACE BY RACE PREVIEWS: FAIRVIEW@2023.11.03

Fairview, 03.11.2023, Race 1, Gallops, 1600m, Turf, R70.000, 12:45GMT+2

Race Summary: MASTEROFALLSTORMS showed good improvement when runner-up at Hollywoodbets Durbanville last time out. He can go one better raiding the Eastern Cape. HAWK CIRCLE has been a disappointment in that he has yet to win a race but was not disgraced when runner-up on local debut. He should prefer it back on the turf and will be right there at the finish. BRIDGERTON is holding form and should be right there at the finish. It is hard to see anything else winning the race although HATFULLOFCHERRIES and DUMISANI are open to improvement.

Selections:

#4 Masterofallstorms, #1 Hawk Circle, #5 Bridgerton, #10 Dumisani

Fairview, 03.11.2023, Race 2, Gallops, 1600m, Turf, R78.000, 13:20GMT+2

Race Summary: RED WILLIAM has been impressive on the Polytrack of late. He ran well above his rating when only finding one better last Friday. Returning to the turf should not be a problem and he is the one to beat. LORD VARYS struggled on the Polytrack last time and will like it back on the turf. TREASURE HUNT was not disgraced when third last time in the Western Cape so deserves respect on local debut. CLIMATE CONTROL ran well when trying the Polytrack last time out and is proven on turf. He is a danger. SAND BANK and EUPHORIC are both in good form and are not out of it.

Selections:

#3 Red William, #5 Climate Control, #1 Lord Varys, #2 Treasure Hunt

Fairview, 03.11.2023, Race 3, Gallops, 1400m, Turf, R81.500, 13:55GMT+2

Race Summary: A competitive race. UNYIELDING is on the up and could pull off a hat-trick after some nice wins. She has gone up 8 points for her two wins but that might not be enough to stop another win. EASY LIVING found her best form when beating a good stable companion in the form of Idita so deserves respect. ACT NATURALLY showed what she is capable of with a good win last time out. CHRONICLESOFNANIA has lost her way on the Polytrack lately but will do better back on the grass this time. RIMAAH is unreliable but is also not out of it.

Selections:

#7 Unyielding, #2 Act Naturally, #4 Chroniclesofnania, #5 Rimaah

Fairview, 03.11.2023, Race 4, Gallops, 1400m, Turf, R83.000, 14:30GMT+2

Race Summary: GLOBAL ALLY won on local debut like many of his stable companions. He quickened nicely on the Polytrack that day and can follow up on the turf. Stable companion ALINGALONGA has been unreliable of late but can earn some money. DOWSER makes his local debut and could improve, EL ROMIACHI was done by a wide draw last time out and has a place chance in this line-up. PARIS RIX won well on the Polytrack last week but has more to do against these rivals. DAWN OF A NEW ERA and EYJAFJALLAJOKULL are both in good form and capable of fighting out the finish again.

Selections:

#8 Global Ally, #9 Dawn Of A New Era, #10 Eyjafjallajokull, #1 Alingalonga

Fairview, 03.11.2023, Race 5, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R71.000, 15:05GMT+2

Race Summary: A tough race and we have to go very wide in exotics like the Pick 6. CHARLIE MALONE has disappointed on the Polytrack of late but can bounce back to score back on turf. COASTAL PATH has been in good form without winning and is clearly a hard horse with which to win. FIERY DUKE only tired late last time and could be a threat. IRONTAIL is better than what he has been showing recently and can pop up to score. TOUREIRO has been much improved this year and has a winning chance as well.

Selections:

#9 Charlie Malone, #1 Coastal Path, #10 Irontail, #6 Toureiro

Fairview, 03.11.2023, Race 6, Gallops, 1000m, Turf, R78.500, 15:40GMT+2

Race Summary: SUMMER ODYSSEY has been good without winning of late and will like this course and distance. PRINCESS DEB’S is speedy and could be a threat. DELICASEA is best on turf and could surprise. BAUBLES AND BEADS has been consistent of late and deserves respect. POMODORO MAGIC is better over further but can contest the finish. KOMESANS PASSION can surprise back on the turf. GRUE OF ICE seems best on the Polytrack. LOOKING HOT and the improving COLD TRUTH are also capable of getting involved at the finish.

Selections:

#2 Summer Odyssey, #4 Baubles And Beads, #7 Komesans Passion, #10 Cold Truth

Fairview, 03.11.2023, Race 7, Gallops, 1600m, Turf, R250.000, 16:15GMT+2

Race Summary: A disappointing field. ZOOMIE is clearly improving and is coming off two very good runner-up performances. He is weighted to win comfortably and should have no problem with the course and distance. VISION OF WONDER proved in need of his last run and could do a lot better back on the turf. FAIRY KNIGHT has ability but may need a bit further to be seen at his very best. He should fight out the finish though. It is hard to see any of the others actually winning this race. THE WINTER LAKE and HAT’S PRIDE do have place chances.

Selections:

#2 Zoomie, #3 Fairy Knight, #1 Vision Of Wonder, #5 Hat’s Pride

Fairview, 03.11.2023, Race 8, Gallops, 1800m, Turf, R74.500, 16:50GMT+2

Race Summary: A tough race to end the day. ELLIS ISLAND is at his very best around this course and distance and could bounce back and surprise. PAINITE has been very consistent on the Polytrack of late and could be just as good on the turf. JASPERO has not been on the turf for some time now but deserves respect in this line-up. DESERT FOX is better than his last Polytrack performance. MOHANDAS took a long time to get out of the maiden ranks but could have more to offer. GUERRA and GIMME GORGEOUS are two others worth throwing into the Pick 6.

Selections:

#11 Ellis Island, #10 Gimme Gorgeous, #2 Desert Fox, #3 Jaspero

Best Win: #3 RED WILLIAM

Best Longshot: #11 ELLIS ISLAND
