Fairview Polytrack, 14.07.2025, Race 1, Gallops, 1200m, Poly, R78.000, 12:30GMT+2
Race Summary: CASINO KING has been scratched from two intended races at this centre. This is his first taste of the Fairview Polytrack. He does set the standard for the race. LARIUS LACUS was not beaten far in his three starts in KwaZulu-Natal and should be a threat in this line-up after a change of trainer. OLIVE OYL has been unlucky not to have won a race by now and should be right there at the finish once again. WALTZING DOLL makes her debut but represents a trainer who knows what is needed to win a race like this so keep an eye on her betting.
Selections: #1 Casino King, #5 Olive Oyl, #6 Waltzing Doll, #2 Larius Lacus
Fairview Polytrack, 14.07.2025, Race 2, Gallops, 1200m, Poly, R75.000, 13:05GMT+2
Race Summary: THE ROARING ROCK has yet to finish in the first four but has not been beaten far in some fair fields in the Western Cape and that form usually holds up well at this centre. He does try the Polytrack. BLIND FAITH ran a cracker on a soft track at Kenilworth in February but is returning from a break and has had a change of trainer. PRINCE ANTONIO showed improvement after a change of trainer and should fight out the finish. AMERICAN PITBULL has a place chance. FLIGHT ENGINEER has been a disappointment this year but does have a winning chance.
Selections: #8 The Roaring Rock, #7 Blind Faith, #1 Flight Engineer, #3 Prince Antonio

Race Summary: PIBE DE ORO struggled in Gauteng without finding winning success, He was runner-up three times and could win at this centre after a change of trainer and trying the Polytrack. GENTEEL is knocking hard at the door and should go close to winning a race of this nature. GLOBAL DRUMBEAT does seem better than his last run. He does lack a strong kick though. PROLIFIC STAR has only been modest in his recent runs on the turf but is capable of improvement on this surface. PARDON ME has improved of late and should fight out the finish.
Selections: #2 Pibe De Oro, #1 Genteel, #6 Pardon Me, #3 Global Drumbeat
Fairview Polytrack, 14.07.2025, Race 4, Gallops, 1600m, Poly, R78.500, 14:15GMT+2
Race Summary: TAKE YOUR TIME has improved of late and is hinting at another win. Her trainer has his runner sin good form and she gets a narrow vote to score. HAPHAZARD has run well on this surface and does seem beter than her modest last run. LADY LUCK is in good form and clearly not out of it. HAT MONTERA was an easy maiden winner and might have more to offer. ICE CAP has got close to winning a couple of times of late and has a winning chance. Stable companions CHRONICLESOFNANIA and COLORAMA also have to be included in the Pick 6.
Selections: #8 Take Your Time, #7 Ice Cap, #5 Lady Luck, #10 Colorama

Race Summary: ROYAL CITY GIRL was well beaten last time out but the runner-up has won impressively since then so she must have a winning chance. GREEN OKRA was a very easy maiden winner last week and can follow up going a bit further this time around. JAMBO SANA has only been modest of late but could like this extra distance and would not be a surprise winner. ABOVE THE HORIZON has been consistent so far and was not disgraced in his first start since being gelded. ARIVIDICIO is consistent and needs to be included in all Pick 6 permutations.
Selections: #5 Royal City Girl, #8 Arividicio, #2 Green Okra, #3 Jambo Sana
Fairview Polytrack, 14.07.2025, Race 6, Gallops, 2000m, Poly, R100.000, 15:25GMT+2
Race Summary: MR FOX has been a very easy winner of his last two starts. A 6-point penalty for his maiden win was followed up by a 8-point penalty for his impressive turf win. He can win again in a tougher field. HAROLD THE DUKE has lost his way of late but he has been in far stronger fields than this and he has run well on this surface. JACK IN THE GREEN has already won twice for Greeff and can earn some more money. SLAINTE MHATH has been hit-or-miss of late and is not out of it. HAARLEM, ROLL THE DICE and RED WILLIAM are all capable of making the frame when in the right mood.
Selections: #2 Mr Fox, #4 Slainte Mhath, #8 Red William, #1 Harold The Duke
Fairview Polytrack, 14.07.2025, Race 7, Gallops, 1400m, Poly, R108.000, 16:00GMT+2
Race Summary: MERCANTOUR is yet another horse that has thrived for Alan Greeff. He was very impressive on this surface last time out and can follow up if in the same mood. SILVER FALCON has not won for some time but has won twice on this surface and could be a threat. BUSH TRACKER has won four times on this surface and has a place chance. GOLDEN LINK is talented and was not disgraced behind MERCANTOUR in his first run since being gelded so there can be improvement forthcoming. USA’S HOPE has done well on this surface of late and should contest the finish.
Selections: #1 Mercantour, #2 Silver Falcon, #5 Usa’s Hope, #3 Bush Tracker
Fairview Polytrack, 14.07.2025, Race 8, Gallops, 1100m, Poly, R88.000, 16:35GMT+2
Race Summary: PRISCILLA MAISEY ran well above her rating last time and can win if repeating that performance. ARTICUNO has been unlucky not to have won any of his last 5 starts and deserves a winning turn. LE PREMIERE makes a local debut and would not be a surprise winner. PROJECT RUNWAY and MS PATTY both disappointed last time out but could bounce back and earn some money. ENCHANTING LADY is in good form and is yet another in with a winning chance.
