Race Summary: CHEERSCHEERSCHEERS was disappointing last run but had the worst of the draw. He has sone some promise and meets a modest field. INTRO has been knocking at the door without much luck. She should feature in the money again. GIMMETHEGOLD has only had two starts over shorter and was not too far back. Up in trip with first time blinkers. RED FRED showed some improvement when going 1600m for the first time on the poly. He could be coming to hand.

Selections: #11 CHEERSCHEERSCHEERS, #5 INTRO, #9 RED FRED, #1 GIMMETHEGOLD

HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE POLYTRACK, 27.10.2025, Race 2, Gallops, 1600m, Poly, R120,000, 13:25GMT+2

Race Summary: KANAAL SKATER enjoyed the step up in trip when winning last time out. He only got a three-point raise in the handicap and can go in again. SAFE TRAVEL returns from a break after winning his maiden. He looks progressive and one to watch in the market. RUN TO RIO has come well of late and was a close-up second over course and distance last time out. RAGNAR THE KING  was game in defeat last run. A repeat can see him close again.

Selections: #1 KANAAL SKATER, #3 SAFE TRAVEL, #6 RUN TO RIO, #2 RAGNAR THE KING

HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE POLYTRACK, 27.10.2025, Race 3, Gallops, 1600m, Poly, R100,000, 14:00GMT+2

Race Summary: ONE PATH was a beaten favourite last run but may just have needed it. She looks the part here. NAUTICAL LANDING is never far back and run two fair races since her overdue maiden win. The step up in trip could suit. POURSOMESUGARONME is always game and overdue another win. She goes well on the poly. PROM QUEEN switches to the poly. She had a tough draw last run but is never far back.

Selections: #1 ONE PATH, #4 NAUTICAL LANDING, #9 PROM QUEEN, #7 POURSOMESUGARONME

HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE POLYTRACK, 27.10.2025, Race 4, Gallops, 1400m, Poly, R90,000, 14:35GMT+2

Race Summary: MAC HARDY has the widest draw to contend with but he is a horse at home on the poly  and can follow up on his last win in this class. SUN DAZED makes his local debut after showing useful enough Cape form. He should run a big race in this company. GORGEOUS DUDE has not been far back at recent outings and has a handy galloping weight from the best of the draw. BRAVE VOYAGER has not been far back at recent outings and has a good money chance.

Selections: #10 MAC HARDY, #6 SUN DAZED, #1 GORGEOUS DUDE, #2 BRAVE VOYAGER

HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE POLYTRACK, 27.10.2025, Race 5, Gallops, 1400m, Poly, R90,000, 15:10GMT+2

Race Summary: ULTRA QUICK has come to hand nicely at his last two, runner-up over course and distance last time out. GREENLIGHT QUEEN has been improving with each outing. The tongue-tie stays on along with a useful claiming apprentice. LEXICAN POINT has been disappointing but takes a further drop in the handicap and should be competitive in this line-up. TRAFALGAR SQUARE has been moist effective over sprints but he is a veteran and the step up in trip could now suit.

Selections: #6 ULTRA QUICK, #9 GREENLIGHT QUEEN, #8 LEXICAN POINT, #10 TRAFALGAR SQUARE

HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE POLYTRACK, 27.10.2025, Race 6, Gallops, 1400m, Poly, R125,000, 15:45GMT+2

Race Summary: LIMITLESS SKY has not been out since contesting a Gr1 where she copped seven-points in the handicap for finishing nearly seven lengths off the winner from the worst of the draw. She takes on a competitive field but Wendy Whitehead does appear to have picked the right race for her seasonal debut as she is nicely in at the weights if the handicappers are to be believed. CONVOCATION steps up in trip but has been in good form over shorter. The extra should not be a problem and she looks a big threat. JAZZ CAFE is unbeaten in two starts since Robbie Hill added blinkers but she did get a six-point shunt in the handicap for her last win and she is taking on stronger. SOVEREIGN GRANT switches to the poly after two close-up efforts on the turf. She seldom runs a poor race and can go one better after finishing behind stable companion Infinity Edge.

Selections: #2 LIMITLESS SKY, #3 CONVOCATION, #5 SOVEREIGN GRANT, #4 JAZZ CAFÉ

HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE POLYTRACK, 27.10.2025, Race 7, Gallops, 1200m, Poly, R120,000, 16:20GMT+2

Race Summary: FORTRESS OF FIRE showed potential early in his career. He makes his seasonal debut as a gelding and if not short of a run he will be right there. BANK STREET has good form on the poly and the Ferrie stable is in mustard form at present. He is 1.5kg better off with MVELELO for a length beating and should be able to turn the tables although Mvelelo is back over what looks to be his optimum course and distance. RAINBOW REWARD was a beaten favourite last run. He has consistent recent form and can make amends.

Selections: #10 FORTRESS OF FIRE, #3 BANK STREET, #2 MVELELO, #6 RAINBOW REWARD

HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE POLYTRACK, 27.10.2025, Race 8, Gallops, 1200m, Poly, R80,000, 16:55GMT+2

Race Summary: QUENTASIA has another handy galloping weight and a good draw so can go close again. CAPRICIOUS MISS was a narrow maiden winner last time out but that form has since been franked although both maiden races were not particularly strong. LITTLEBLACKGEM was much improved last start coming off a short break. She can go one better in this line-up. SHIMMERING has her first run for a new stable after coming of her recent Highveld maiden win. If not short of a run she should be competitive.

Selections: #2 QUENTASIA, #5 CAPRICIOUS MISS, #4 LITTLEBLACKGEM, #11 SHIMMERING

Best Win: #1 ONE PATH

Best Value Bet: #10 MAC HARDY

Best Longshot: #8 LEXICAN POINT
