Race Summary: DANISH DYNAMITE showed signs of inexperience on debut and was beaten by an in-form experienced rival. She should improve and go one better this time. SILVAN MISTRESS appears a difficult ride but is big danger if things fall into place for her. DARLINGBUDSOFMAY ran in a decent field on debut and can improve and contest the finish this time. RED LHASA and ZUMSEE are capable of improvement and could be more competitive this time around.

Race Summary: WILD APPLAUSE has been a disappointment in that she has yet to win a race but she does look likely to go one better this time for Snaith racing. CLEVER CANDY has improved at this centre and should contest the finish once again. MIDNIGHT MUSIC showed improvement on local debut and can do even better this track and trip. DANCING IN WINTER is consistent and has a place chance. STAR OF ELENA has shown ability and will be a threat to her elders.
Selections: #1 Wild Applause, #11 Star Of Elena, #2 Clever Candy, #3 Midnight Music
Fairview, 23.05.2025, Race 3, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R75.000, 13:35GMT+2
Race Summary: ELUSIVE BLACK returns from a break and has his first run for trainer Gavin Smith. He has been gelded. If fit and well he could be a bit better than his rivals. GREEN OKRA changed trainers and could contest the finish this time. PYRO EDITION makes his local debut and can make significant improvement. AWAY WITH RED showed some improvement last time out and could have more to follow. INCENDIARY makes his local debut and is capable of improvement. ROYAL KINGDOM has been good so far and can contest the finish.

Fairview, 23.05.2025, Race 4, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R76.000, 14:10GMT+2
Race Summary: SWISS PARADISE quickened nicely to win on local debut. This distance is not really a problem and she can follow up but it is a very open handicap. We may need to go very wide in all the exotics, especially the Pick 6. FREE WORLD is consistent and can contest the finish. KILMONIVAIG and SMASHING are both in good form and have to be included in all bets. HUGSANDHIGHFIVES returned to form with a narrow win and is capable of following up. KOMESANS PASSION is course and distance suited. PERFECT TRUST showed good pace last time out and could upset.
Selections: #8 Swiss Paradise, #4 Hugsandhighfives, #3 Smashing, #2 Kilmonivaig
Fairview, 23.05.2025, Race 5, Gallops, 1000m, Turf, R106.000, 14:45GMT+2
Race Summary: SPEED RACER ran well above his rating when chasing home easy and impressive winner Mercantour. He can go one better this time. ANUSCHKA’S WORLD is usually very competitive and should fight out the finish. He does give away chunks of weight to his rivals. EVIES FIRST is unreliable but quite capable of contesting the finish. CLIFF TOP has not won for some time but is always capable of earning with some money. PLAY ACT goes back to sprinting and could be the surprise package of the race. FOREST SPY has had a good year and is not out of it.
Selections: #9 Speed Racer, #1 Anuschka’s World, #2 Evies First, #3 Cliff Top
Fairview, 23.05.2025, Race 6, Gallops, 1400m, Turf, R175.000, 15:20GMT+2
Race Summary: SILVER FALCON is distance suited and well drawn. He has not won for a while but can score at any time. MERCANTOUR has improved under the care of trainer Alan Greeff and can follow up on a very easy last win. BUSH TRACKER is consistent and distance suited. GOLDEN LINK struggled over further last time out but has been at his very best around this distance and is not out of it. DESTINY’S ANGEL needed his last run and could show significant improvement. NO PLACE LIKE HOME is unreliable but is also capable of earning some money.
Selections: #3 Silver Falcon, #1 Mercantour, #6 Golden Link, #8 Destiny’s Angel
Fairview, 23.05.2025, Race 7, Gallops, 1000m, Turf, R150.000, 15:55GMT+2
Race Summary: HAPPY HOLLY was a very good juvenile. She has not been as good this year but a return to the turf should bring out the best in her. THREE ROCKS has not shown her best side of late but jockey Richard Fourie has stuck with her and that indicates she must be respected. Stable companions GOCEKWITHLOVE and ELLORIX are also not out of it. TRIP TO MAPUTO and KYALAMI GIRL have both made their way from the Western Cape and would not be surprise winners. WOMAN OF POWER is in good form and can earn some money. BASINGSTOKE makes her local debut after a change of trainer.
Selections: #12 Happy Holly, #7 Trip To Maputo, #6 Kyalami Girl, #5 Ellorix
Fairview, 23.05.2025, Race 8, Gallops, 1600m, Turf, R81.000, 16:30GMT+2
Race Summary: GOT THE FEVER makes her local debut and could improve. SUN SPECTACULAR likes the turf and can contest the finish. TREASURE HUNT is in good form and could earn some more money. COULDITBE has a winning chance in this line-up. VOLARE E MAMBO did not show her best last time out but could bounce back to be a threat. IN THE GREEN ZONE returned to form back on the grass last time out and could follow up. Stable companions CONCERTO and COURAGEOUS are also capable of running well.
Selections: #6 Got The Fever, #9 In The Green Zone, #11 Courageous, #4 Coulditbe
Best Win: #1 WLD APPLAUSE
Best Longshot: #12 HAPPY HOLLY
