Fairview, 19.09.2025, Race 1, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R75.000, 12:30GMT+2
Race Summary: AMERICAN MATADOR has been tiring late over a bit further than this. This distance should suit him better and he is long overdue a first career win. AWAY WITH RED has shown improvement of late and should be right there at the finish. BOMBER STREAM gets blinkers on his local debut and would not be a surprise winner. AMERICAN EAGLE is better than some modest recent performances and could be a threat. SWEET CAKE returns from a break and could earn some money. MONEY GALORE can also earn some more money.
Selections: #1 American Matador, #2 Away With Red, #3 Bomber Stream, #5 American Eagle
Fairview, 19.09.2025, Race 2, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R104.000, 13:05GMT+2
Race Summary: DIRECT HIT is unbeaten in four starts, including the Grade 1 Allan Robertson at Scottsville. She returns from a break and takes on her elders for the first time. Stable companion ELLORIX has been in very good form all year on the Polytrack and should run well again. SWEETIE DARLING flopped last time out but did win three nice races before that and should fight it out. MONTELENA is not an easy ride, but she remains in very good form and should be involved with the finish once again.
Selections: #1 Direct Hit, #4 Montelena, #2 Ellorix, #3 Sweetie Darling
Fairview, 19.09.2025, Race 3, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R79.000, 13:40GMT+2
Race Summary: ICE CAP usually runs on late and is not an easy ride but she is consistent and capable of winning. JAPANESE GARDEN makes a local debut for a trainer in very good form. GAELIC DANCER can improve after a change of trainer as well. FARAWAY GIRL is improving and was an easy maiden winner. CANFORD QUEEN, CAPE CAPRI, KILMONIVAIG, JUST ONE KISS, BENEATH THE MOON and FULL OF MAGIC are all capable of winning.
Selections: #10 Ice Cap, #15 Full Of Magic, #1 Japanese Garden, #14 Beneath The Moon
Fairview, 19.09.2025, Race 4, Gallops, 1000m, Turf, R85.000, 14:15GMT+2
Race Summary: SPORTS FAN has competed against some talented runners and did beat promising Danish Dynamite. She is likely to be a lot better than her current merit rating. FIERY COUNTESS is unbeaten in two starts on the Polytrack and was a good winner last time out but will need to show she is as good on the grass. SMASHING has been very consistent and should contest the finish. MY AMI BEACH is unreliable but is capable of earning some money. KAMAKAZI makes her local debut so should improve. ENCHANTING LADY has a place chance.
Selections: #7 Sports Fan, #4 Kamakazi, #2 Smashing, #3 My Ami Beach
Fairview, 19.09.2025, Race 5, Gallops, 1600m, Turf, R80.000, 14:50GMT+2
Race Summary: BEER WITH THE BOYS seems to be over his disappointing performance on the Polytrack. He ran on well last time out and can go one better. BACK FOR MORE tried her luck in some tough races earlier this year. This is more her level and she should be a real threat once again. ALWAYS SHINING is unreliable but could play a minor role. BLUE PALACE did not show her best last time out but did win nicely enough in her penultimate start. STRANGE MAGIC seems better than her last run and can earn some money. FLASH LIGHTNING and DUMISANI are also capable of playing minor roles.
Selections: #7 Beer With The Boys, #2 Back For More, #8 Flash Lightning, #9 Dumisani
Fairview, 19.09.2025, Race 6, Gallops, 2000m, Turf, R75.000, 15:25GMT+2
Race Summary: OUTBACK EXPRESS is improving and lost his race in the board room last time out. He will need to show he is as good on the turf. A more patient ride this time around should provide him with his winning turn. JANNEMAN WAT KAN did not show much in the Western Cape but should be a threat to these rivals. BOMBER BAY was a costly failure last time out in a race that had two false starts. He is consistent and can contest the finish. GLOBAL SPEAK, SEMPRE BELLA and DARLING GIRL need to improve to win a race but could perhaps earn some minor money.
Selections: #8 Outback Express, #9 Janneman Wat Kan, #1 Bomber Bay, #4 Sempre Bella
Fairview, 19.09.2025, Race 7, Gallops, 1800m, Turf, R175.000, 16:00GMT+2
Race Summary: MY BEST SHOT was a bit of a disappointment returning from KwaZulu-Natal. He is capable of much better and gets a narrow vote to score. Stable companion GOLDEN PEACE flopped on the Polytrack last time out after some very pleasing wins and would not be a surprise winner. ROYAL AUSSIE finished easily ahead of MY BEST SHOT last time out but has not won for some time now. LANCIAFIAMME tackles stronger but is clearly talented. FIREALLEY and GLOBAL ALLY might play minor roles.
Selections: #3 My Best Shot, #6 Golden Peace, #1 Royal Aussie, #5 Firealley
Fairview, 19.09.2025, Race 8, Gallops, 1400m, Turf, R85.000, 16:35GMT+2
Race Summary: NEW MEXICO quickened up nicely when winning on local debut and can follow up. FRENCH FLAME showed improvement and can go one better. GRAND ALLEGRO is consistent and clearly not out of it. VOLARE E MAMBO and DAS GUTE are capable of better than they have been showing and could be surprise packages. GOLDEN GREY is not an easy ride but should be right there at the finish once again. MR BELVEDERE is battling for a second win but did run an improved race last time out.
Selections: #1 New Mexico, #8 Golden Grey, #11 Mr Belvedere, #2 French Flame
Best Win: #1 DIRECT HIT
Best Longshot: #1 NEW MEXICO
