Fairview, 15.10.2024, Race 1, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R75.000, 12:05GMT+2

Race Summary: ICE CAP is a long-time battling maiden. This course and distance should suit and she may finally have her day to shine. OPERA VERSE was unlucky last time out and should contest the finish. SHOUT AT THE MOON makes her local debut and could improve. DANCING IN WINTER ran well on debut but is returning from a break and should need the run. FANTASY GIRL is consistent and can earn some more money.

Selections:

#1 Ice Cap, #2 Opera Verse, #7 Fantasy Girl, #5 Dancing In Winter

Fairview, 15.10.2024, Race 2, Gallops, 1400m, Turf, R71.000, 12:40GMT+2

Race Summary: A competitive-looking race. MAN OF COURAGE was not disgraced in both starts and should be ready to fight out the finish. MO LALAIKA makes his local debut and should show vast improvement. FLASH LIGHTNING showed improvement last time and can earn some more money. HOME REEF showed improvement with blinkers and a return to the turf could be profitable. The last run of DONNY’S BOY is best forgotten, and he should fight out the finish. AGAMEMNON needs to do a bit more to win a race but could play a minor role.

Selections:

#3 Man Of Courage, #5 Donny’s Boy, #8 Global Scene, #2 Flash Lightning

Fairview, 15.10.2024, Race 3, Gallops, 1600m, Turf, R75.000, 13:15GMT+2

Race Summary: A MONTH OF SUNDAYS was not beaten far in three runs in Gauteng. She could score on local debut but it is an open-looking race. ANGEL OF MY HEART was disappointing on local debut but might prefer it back on the turf and has a winning chance. ELUSIVE MATA is threatening to win and deserves respect. BEIJING BOULEVARD is consistent and can contest the finish once again. KAROO BOKKIE has been a disappointment so far but is capable of improving. ELEGANT APPEAL is another capable of improvement over this distance.

Selections:

#1 A Month Of Sundays, #4 Beijing Boulevard, #2 Angel Of My Heart, #3 Elusive Mata

Fairview, 15.10.2024, Race 4, Gallops, 2400m, Turf, R94.000, 13:55GMT+2

Race Summary: A small field but a very interesting race. WOMAN’S WORLD is a dangerous front-runner. She did not show her best side last time out but is weighted to win this race. JUAN CARLOS has been good of late, winning twice in his last four starts. This course and distance suits him and he should be right there at the finish. NO PLACE LIKE HOME and stable companion CENTRAL CITY have been unreliable of late but both are capable of getting involved with the finish. STORM COMMANDER tries this longer distance and should like it.

Selections:

#4 Juan Carlos, #1 No Place Like Home, #3 Woman’s World, #2 Central City

Fairview, 15.10.2024, Race 5, Gallops, 1000m, Turf, R81.000, 14:30GMT+2

Race Summary: A race where it could be worth including many runners in the Pick 6. BYTHELITEOFTHEMOON showed what she is capable of with an easy last win but has been unreliable. MISS SHAIVI is very consistent and one of these days she will keep going all the way to the line. GOLD AGENT makes a local debut and could surprise. PROJECT RUNWAY is talented but has not been showing it of late. COLD TRUTH is in good form and has a winning chance. FULL OF MAGIC has not won for some time but is also not out of it. MEDITERANEANGODDES is speedy and capable of making all the running.

Selections:

#4 Miss Shaivi, #1 Bytheliteofthemoon, #6 Project Runway, #10 Full Of Magic

Fairview, 15.10.2024, Race 6, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R100.000, 15:03GMT+2

Race Summary: A competitive leg of the Pick 6 and it might pay to include as many as possible. GOLDEN LINK was not disgraced last time out and could do a lot better this time around. FOREST SPY has been good of late and deserves respect again. Stable companions COOL WINTER and WHATEVER NEXT are both capable of winning. ANUSCHKA’S WORLD was impressive last time out but will have to prove that it was not just a soft-track performance. SON OF ZEUS, GREAT MELODY and PROPHET are all capable of getting into the money.

Selections:

#5 Golden Link, #6 Cool Winter, #1 Forest Spy, #7 Son Of Zeus

Fairview, 15.10.2024, Race 7, Gallops, 1400m, Turf, R84.500, 15:40GMT+2

Race Summary: ARABIAN RED is holding her form nicely and should make a bold bid at scoring over this track and trip. KILMONIVAIG is not reliable but is capable of scoring. CANT SAY NO has ability and can contest the finish again. LIGHT OF DAY could be the surprise package of the race. QUERANDI tends to lack a finish when she really needs it most but is not out of it. HUGSANDHIGHFIVES has been very disappointing of late but is capable of being a threat. VINTAGE CRYSTAL has a place chance on best form.

Selections:

#5 Arabian Red, #3 Can’T Say No, #1 Kilmonivaig, #2 Chroniclesofnania

Fairview, 15.10.2024, Race 8, Gallops, 1400m, Turf, R76.000, 16:20GMT+2

Race Summary: HANGING ROCK was not beaten far last time even after losing many lengths at the start and having a slipped saddle. He could pop up and score, but it is a tough race. Stable companion HEART STEALER did well to beat a much higher rated runner than her on local debut so could have more wins in the tank. JAMES FITZJAMES was not disgraced last time and could earn some money. BRYDEN BAY was an easy winner on the Polytrack last time out, but this is a tougher race. GLOBAL BANKER drops in distance and could be the surprise package of the race.

#4 Hanging Rock, #3 Heart Stealer, #6 James Fitzjames, #1 Abound
