Race Summary: Sam Mosia has a good mount in the Work Riders opener aboard threatening IN A BLUE MOON – the one to beat. IRISH LOVE was a bit disappointing last time but could challenge here. TROMBETTISTA is improving and shouldn’t be far off. OKLAHOMA TWISTER has done well in all three work rider events – respect. PIKE PLACE drifted in the betting last time and ran accordingly.
Selections:
#2 In A Blue Moon, #3 Trombettista, #1 Irish Love, #4 Oklahoma Twister

Race Summary: COSMIC SPEED attracted money on debut but was the victim of interference and finished runner-up. He should go one better. Look for improvement from CHESTNUT BOMBER who encountered problems on debut. DANCE KING was well-beaten into third on debut but will know more about it. Watch the 2 newcomers.
Selections:
#2 Cosmic Speed, #1 Chestnut Bomber, #3 Dance King, #6 One And All
Turffontein Inside, 25.04.2024, Race 3, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R95.000, 13:45GMT+2
Race Summary: DRAGON DRAGON was heavily backed last time but failed narrowly. She should make amends. Despite her pedigree MAGIC SECRET is sprinting well and has a trifecta chance. CENTREFOLD wasn’t disgraced last time out in new surroundings and with WINTER IN PARIS, THE NAVY LARK, CHATTANOOGA LADY and TOGETHER AGAIN could make the frame.
Selections:
#7 Dragon Dragon, #1 Magic Secret, #3 Together Again, #2 The Navy Lark

Race Summary: GOLD AGENT is threatening and should make a bold bid. WAHEED took a walk in the betting on debut but wasn’t disgraced – respect. AND ACTION is improving steadily and could get into the reckoning. BAD MEDICINE never recovered from a bad start on debut and will have gained experience. HIS LORDSHIP could sneak into the Quartet.
Selections:
#5 Gold Agent, #8 Waheed, #6 Bad Medicine, #1 And Action
Turffontein Inside, 25.04.2024, Race 5, Gallops, 1000m, Turf, R140.000, 14:55GMT+2
Race Summary: KARANGETANG is back over the minimum distance and could resume winning ways. However, he gives stablemates WIND WATER 4kg and RAINBOW REWARD 7,5kg – either could challenge. DREAMLAND is in top form and could complete a hat-trick. Others could sneak into the places.
Selections:
#3 Dreamland, #1 Karangetang, #5 Woman Of Power, #2 Wind Water

Race Summary: FEEL ALL RIGHT beat THE PLAYBOY BOMBER by 4.75-lengths but the latter won easily in his next start and may have come on in heaps since. MK’S DREAM sports blinkers now and could keep on galloping this time. BOB’S YOUR UNCLE was coughing last time and must be considered here.
Selections:
#7 The Playboy Bomber, #3 Bob’s Your Uncle, #2 Mk’s Dreams, #5 Feel All Right
Turffontein Inside, 25.04.2024, Race 8, Gallops, 1450m, Turf, R110.000, 16:40GMT+2
Race Summary: BLOOMINGTON and POCKET WATCH enjoy this course and distance and could fight it out. Another who has done well at this track is CHAMPION WARRIOR. However, he races before this so watch. FUNKY MUSIC appears to have lost his edge but with 4kg off his back he could get back on track.
Selections:
#4 Champion Warrior, #2 Bloomington, #7 Pocket Watch, #1 Funky Music
