Fairview Polytrack, 05.11.2025, Race 1, Gallops, 1000m, Poly, R71.000, 12:25GMT+2
Race Summary: TANZANITE showed good improvement in her second start. She can go one better this time, but it is her first run on the Polytrack. CHEEKY CRANBERRY makes her debut for the powerful combination of trainer Alan Greeff and jockey Richard Fourie. FRENCH ROMANCE is a One World filly that would not be a surprise winner on debut. SOMBREUIL did not show her best last time out and is better judged on a good third in her penultimate start. She can contest the finish.
Selections: #3 Tanzanite, #1 Cheeky Cranberry, #2 French Romance, #5 Sombreuil
Fairview Polytrack, 05.11.2025, Race 2, Gallops, 1400m, Poly, R75.000, 13:00GMT+2
Race Summary: ON AN IMPULSE makes his local debut. Blinkers are carded for him and he could be the one to beat trying the Polytrack. MIO DESTINO and BUGLE are holding their form and both can get involved with the finish once again. MISSOURI FLAME showed some improvement in her second start and could have more to come.
Selections: #5 On An Impulse, #8 Missouri Flame, #4 Bugle, #3 Mio Destino
Fairview Polytrack, 05.11.2025, Race 3, Gallops, 1600m, Poly, R75.000, 13:35GMT+2
Race Summary: ROYAL MISSY attracted massive betting support last time but found one better on the day. She is clearly well tried on this surface and can go one place better. ROYAL MERMAID clearly needed her local debut and can contest the finish. OH MANDY is struggling to win but she is very consistent and can fight out the finish yet again. LACRYMA CHRISTI is capable of improvement and is another to consider.
Selections: #5 Royal Missy, #3 Oh Mandy, #6 Lacryma Christi, #1 Royal Mermaid
Fairview Polytrack, 05.11.2025, Race 4, Gallops, 1600m, Poly, R76.000, 14:15GMT+2
Race Summary: WILD FIG proved no match for the very talented Golden Palm last time out but can be a real threat to these rivals. CAPTAIN CLEVER was a very easy recent maiden winner and could be better than his handicap mark. KING RAHUL is hat-trick seeking and must be considered. ARIVIDICIO are others that can win.
Selections: #4 Wild Fig, #7 King Rahul, #9 Arividicio, #1 Captain Clever
Fairview Polytrack, 05.11.2025, Race 5, Gallops, 1200m, Poly, R86.000, 14:50GMT+2
Race Summary: BAIE MOOI was impressive in her first two wins. She may have needed her last run returning from a break and can bounce back to score. SILVONIAN is knocking hard at the door and can go one better. Stable companion FIERY COUNTESS loves this surface and must be respected for that. JET SET RUN is speedy and could play a minor role.
Selections: #3 Baie Mooi, #5 Bandmaster, #6 Fiery Countess, #7 Jet Set Run
Fairview Polytrack, 05.11.2025, Race 6, Gallops, 1200m, Poly, R95.000, 15:27GMT+2
Race Summary: TINTAMARRE is unbeaten in three starts on the Polytrack. He picked up a five-point penalty for his latest win but can add to his victory tally. TRAVEL MASTER is consistent on this surface and are not out of it. Stable Jockey Richard Fourie rides HALCYON and that runner could like the switch to the Polytrack. DONNY TEE is holding form and are clearly not out of it.
Selections: #1 Tintamarre, #7 Halcyon, #9 Travel Master, #5 Donny Tee
Fairview Polytrack, 05.11.2025, Race 7, Gallops, 1400m, Poly, R106.000, 16:02GMT+2
Race Summary: GOLDEN LINK is in good form and could be ready to score. EYJAFJALLAJOKULL is not an easy horse to ride but he is capable of winning a race like this. WECANGOALLNIGHT showed improvement last time out and has Richard Fourie aboard. FINAL TRY has been in good form this year and would not be surprise winners.
Selections: #1 Golden Link, #7 Eyjafjallajokull, #3 Final Try, #2 Wecangoallnight
Fairview Polytrack, 05.11.2025, Race 8, Gallops, 2000m, Poly, R94.000, 16:37GMT+2
Race Summary: RICHARDTHEFEARLESS did too much too early last time out and was caught very late. He has a light weight to carry this time and could keep going if ridden with more constraint. JUAN CARLOS showed improvement when a well backed winner last time and must be respected for that. FEW DOLLARS MORE is better than his last run and can be a lively danger. GEORGE HANDEL remains in good form and can go one better.
Selections: #11 Richardthefearless, #4 George Handel, #2 Few Dollars More, #1 Juan Carlos
Best Win: #3 BAIE MOOI
Best Longshot: #11 ROCHARDTHEFEARLESS
