HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE, 15.11.2023, Race 1, Gallops, 1000m, Turf, R80,000, 12:25GMT+2
Race Summary: Summary: Watch the betting here with a number of well-bred first timers in the line-up. Of those that have run, JANE’S VISION (4) ran well below par when trying the poly last time out. She was close-up at her previous two starts and back on turf she can make amends. HEAD GIRL (5) makes her local debut. She was lightly raced in the Cape and the switch in venues could see her home. LADIES DAY (3) is a battling maiden but showed some improvement when back on turf last time out with a 4kg claimer up. She needs a repeat showing. NELLIE MELBA (8) makes her debut with Richard Fourie up and could prove the pick of the first timers.
Selections:
#4 JANE’S VISION, #5 HEAD GIRL, #3 LADIES DAY, #8 NELLIE MELBA
HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE, 15.11.2023, Race 2, Gallops, 1900m, Turf, R78,000, 13:00GMT+2
Race Summary: Summary: PIRATE PRINCE (4) has been touched off at his last two in the soft. He is both course and distance suited and should make another bold bid. ADDABAR (3) has shot up in the handicap after beating Pirate Prince two runs back, the latter returning the favour next time out. He looks held by Pirate Prince on that form. DANSE MILORD (6) had her consistency rewarded last run. She steps up in trip and can follow up. PARIS PIKE (2) needed his last run over a distance too short. He has done well this trip and is one to keep an eye on.
Selections:
#4 PIRATE PRINCE, #3 ADDABAR, #6 DANSE MILORD, #2 PARIS PIKE
HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE, 15.11.2023, Race 3, Gallops, 1600m, Turf, R80,000, 13:35GMT+2
Race Summary: Summary: Modest maiden field. FLAG MAN (8) has shown up well in both starts and was a close-up second last time out. He should go one better in this line-up. POWER STAR (1) is struggling to shed his maiden but has not been far back at recent outings. The extra furlong and switch to turf should suit. TORIX NIGHT (2) drifted in the market and raced green on debut. He should come on from that effort. SHOOT THE RAPIDS (5) looks to have a speedy pedigree and is one to keep an eye on.
Selections:
#8 FLAG MAN, #1 POWER STAR, #2 TORIX NIGHT, #5 SHOOT THE RAPIDS
HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE, 15.11.2023, Race 4, Gallops, 1600m, Turf, R80,000, 14:15GMT+2
Race Summary: Summary: Tricky maiden with many in with good form. PERFECTLY PICKED (3) caught the eye when running on late from a bad draw on the poly. She can make the required improvement. ACCUMULATE (7) has improved with each outing and looks primed for this race. FAIRY TRIP (8) has promising form over shorter. She is lightly raced and the step up in trip should suit. WESTSTOCKMARKETBORSE (9) has been game when trying further. Richard Fourie stays with the ride.
Selections:
#3 PERFECTLY PICKED, #7 ACCUMULATE, #8 FAIRY TRIPP, #9 WESTOCKMARKETBORSE
HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE, 15.11.2023, Race 5, Gallops, 1600m, Turf, R80,000, 14:50GMT+2
Race Summary: Summary: THUNDER MASALA (9) was touched off by BRAVE VOYAGER (5) when last they met and is now 2.5kg better off at the weights which should be enough to turn the tables. However, Brave Voyager has been sprinting at his last two and he should be filly fit for the step up in trip. MASTER TOBE (6) has been taking on stronger at recent outings and not far back. He is always game. PORFIRIO (4) took time to get going but is in good form of late. He has won over the distance and can continue his good form.
Selections:
#9 THUNDER MASALA, #5 BRAVE VOYAGER, #4 PORFIRIO, #6 MASTER TOBE
HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE, 15.11.2023, Race 6, Gallops, 1400m, Turf, R80,000, 15:25GMT+2
Race Summary: Summary: PRINCESS OZMA (7) has been disappointing to date but showed a sign of a form return when runner-up last time out. She is down in class and can go one better. QUANABI (11) has a wide draw to contend with but her recent form has been franked and with a 4kg claimer up, she can go close. POURSOMESUGARONME (4) has been threatening for some time now. She was second best when favourite last time out but the switch to turf could see her home. CAN’T CATCH ME (5) has been improving steadily and looks primed for this event.
Selections:
#7 PRINCESS OZMA, #11 QUANABI, #4 POURSOMESUGARONME, #5 CAN’T CATCH ME
HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE, 15.11.2023, Race 7, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R80,000, 16:00GMT+2
Race Summary: Summary: STANLEY PARK (4) has improved in blinkers. He steps up over an extra furlong but should see it out. DIANI (6) has been consistent and showed up well from a tough draw last time out. This seems to be his best trip. MUSIC IS LIFE (9) is overdue his second win and has not been out of the money in his last five outings. PATRONGAE (10) has improved in blinkers. He takes a two-pound drop in the handicap and has a chance of a seventh win.
Selections:
#4 STANLEY PARK, #6 DIANI, #9 MUSIC IS LIFE, #10 PATRONAGE
HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE, 15.11.2023, Race 8, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R80,000, 16:35GMT+2
Race Summary: Summary: ARVERNI PRINCESS (10) has a wide draw but comes from a very much in form stable. She steps up in trip but should see it out. BITCOIN BABY (7) is seldom far back. She takes a drop in the handicap and should feature prominently. MISSION ROCKS (4) took on stronger last run and is back in more suitable company. She also has a 4kg claimer up to help her although all her recent form has been on the poly. CINNAMON BLUSH (2) was a beaten favourite last run. She is better than that and Fourie stays with the ride.
Selections:
#10 ARVERNI PRINCESS, #7 BITCOIN BABY, #4 MISSION ROCKS, #2 CINNAMON BLUSH
Best Win: #3 PERFECTLY PICKED
Best Value Bet: #7 PRINCESS OZMA
Best Longshot: #2 PARIS PIKE
