Race Summary: CHERRY OH BABY (2) has been camped in the second box for her last four starts and can make the step up in a modest field. LONG STREET (3) has a handy galloping weight but has had 18 bites at the cherry. FANTASY LEAGUE (1) has a light weight and has shown some ability. DOIN’ TIME (7) is a long-time battler but her best recent form has been on the poly.

HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE POLYTRACK, 07.05.2025, Race 2, Gallops, 1800m, Poly, R100,000, 12:25GMT+2
Race Summary: SILVER PLATTER (2) makes his poly debut but has been close-up in his last three. He stays the trip and should feature. MASTER BOMBER (12) steps up in trip on the poly but was narrowly beaten over a mile last run at Durbanville. He will be a big threat. BLACK PLATINA (3) has not been far back of late and has a money chance. PARLIAMENT SQUARE (5) was much improved over a sprint last run and needs to carry that improvement over this trip.
Selections: #2 SILVER PLATTER, #12 MASTER BOMBER, #3 BLACK PLATINA, #5 PARLIAMENT SQUARE
HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE POLYTRACK, 07.05.2025, Race 3, Gallops, 1800m, Poly, R125,000, 13:00GMT+2
Race Summary: JULIET TANGO (8) drops in class and has improved at recent outings. She should take to the poly. ONE PATH (6) took on much stronger in feature company first up out of the maidens. One to watch. WOZA NAWE (1) has useful form in blinkers. Should run well. FLYING HAFLA (10) has shown up well in two starts since her maiden win but still got a rating drop.
Selections: #8 JULIET TANGO, #6 ONE PATH, #1 WOZA NAWE, #10 FLYING HAFLA
HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE POLYTRACK, 07.05.2025, Race 4, Gallops, 2000m, Poly, R160,000, 13:40GMT+2
Race Summary: Small field but plenty in with chances. FIELD MARSHAL (7) is a promising gelding who won well last time out. He is 1.5kg worse off with TROIS TROIS QUATRE (8) who was less than a length back. On paper the latter should have his measure but Field Marshal has won on the poly. JOHONNY THE THIEF (1) is also better off in the weights with Filed Marshall and the stable have high hopes for him this winter. FORGIVENESS (4) was a distant third in The Scarlet Lady but can feature in this line-up.
Selections: #7 FIELD MARSHAL, #8 TROIS TROIS QUATRE, #1 JOHNNY THE THIEF, #4 FORGIVENESS
HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE POLYTRACK, 07.05.2025, Race 5, Gallops, 1600m, Poly, R90,000, 14:15GMT+2
Race Summary: NUMZAAN (6) good form for new stable. Big weight but will be a big runner. PORFIRIO (10) is the best performed and loves the poly. EVENTIDOR (4) is holding form well. 4kg claimer will help. COUNT MARSH (5) is way better than his last run from a poor draw. SHINY BOB (1) has come to hand at recent starts and looks primed for this.
Selections: #6 NUMZAAN, #10 PORFIRIO, #4 EVENTIDOR, #5 COUNT MARSH
HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE POLYTRACK, 07.05.2025, Race 6, Gallops, 1600m, Poly, R160,000, 14:50GMT+2
Race Summary: GENTLEMAN JOE (9) has a tricky draw but comes with solid Cape form. Much improved with cheek pieces. BRISTOL HERCULES (1) continued his consistent form for his new stable. He is a July entry and will need to step up. PLAZA ACCORD (4) is up in the handicap but is in good form. The step up in trip could see him in again. FRENCH FLAME (6) is coming to hand and he has gone well on the poly. (Andrew Harrison: 9-1-4-6).
Selections: #9 GO GRAYSON GO, #1 BRISTOL HERCULES, #4 PLAZA ACCORD, #6 FRENCH FLAME

Race Summary: QUENTASIA (1) has a light weight from the best of the draw. Can go all the way. HEAD GIRL (7) ran no sort of race back from a break and on the turf. She took an age to shed her maiden but has smart poly form. POURSOMESUGARONME (9) is struggling for her next win but never far back. Further rating drop. GLAMORZ (2) is way better than her last effort and from a good draw should be a factor.
Selections: #1 QUENTASIA, #7 HEAD GIRL, #9 POURSOMESUGARONME, #2 GLAMORZ

Race Summary: GETOFFOFMYCLOUD (2) won well at just her second outing. She takes on stronger here but does look to be above average. LINE IN THE SKY (7) made sudden improvement last run. Blinkers on and a light weight. MAMAS BABY (1) is way better than her last effort on the turf. Useful poly form before that. LADYBUG (10) has the worst of the draw and has been rested. But she does have smart form on the poly.
Selections: #2 GETOFFOFMYCLOUD, #7 LINE IN THE SKY, #1 MAMAS BABY, #10 LADYBUG
