Fairview Polytrack, 07.11.2025, Race 1, Gallops, 1200m, Poly, R71.000, 12:35GMT+2
Race Summary: ICONIC WINTER has been consistent without winning so far. She makes her local debut trying the Polytrack and does look the one to be with. OCEAN FLAME was touched off on local debut and should be right there at the finish once again. PRICELESS TREASURE has been consistent and can contest the finish yet again. FIVE STAR MAGIC returns from a lengthy break but could play a minor role.
Selections: #1 Iconic Winter, #4 Ocean Flame, #5 Priceless Treasure, #6 Five Star Magic
Fairview Polytrack, 07.11.2025, Race 2, Gallops, 1400m, Poly, R91.000, 13:10GMT+2
Race Summary: ENCHANTING CHOICE is unbeaten in three starts for trainer Alan Greeff and was particularly impressive on the Polytrack last time out. She is not weighted to win but should do so. SPLICETHEMAINBRACE has not been at her best of late but is unbeaten in two starts on this surface and should be right there at the finish. MONTELENA is holding her form and should earn some more money. UNCONQUERABLE LADY has shown improvement of late and has a place chance.
Selections: #2 Enchanting Choice, #1 Splicethemainbrace, #4 Montelena, #5 Unconquerable Lady
Fairview Polytrack, 07.11.2025, Race 3, Gallops, 1600m, Poly, R75.000, 13:45GMT+2
Race Summary: RED LHASA was well beaten on a soft track last time out. She makes her local debut and it may well be a winning one. PROLIFIC STAR has been consistent of late and can contest the finish once again. BOMBER BAY is better than his last run would suggest and is threatening to win a race. CLIFFIE CLAVIN was touched off last time and could go one better.
Selections: #8 Red Lhasa, #2 Bomber Bay, #3 Cliffie Clavin, #1 Prolific Star
Fairview Polytrack, 07.11.2025, Race 4, Gallops, 2000m, Poly, R71.000, 14:20GMT+2
Race Summary: TERMINAL VELOCITY makes her local debut and may well prove better than these rivals. GLOBAL SCENE struggled last week but is better than that run would suggest and can make the frame. AM STILL WINNING did not show her best last week and has a place chance in this line-up. LADY PENNY has a place chance in this line-up.
Selections: #1 Terminal Velocity, #5 Golden Croc, #2 Global Scene, #3 Am Still Winning
Fairview Polytrack, 07.11.2025, Race 5, Gallops, 2000m, Poly, R91.000, 14:55GMT+2
Race Summary: EPIKLEROS has some solid wins of late and has every chance of completing a hat-trick. FLIGHT DISPLAY is at her best on this surface and was an easy winner last time out. She can contest the finish yet again. ONE RELIGION has been consistent of late and has Richard Fourie riding her so would not be a surprise winner. HONORABLE MEMBER is clearly a difficult filly to win with but she is very consistent and can get involved with the finish yet again.
Selections: #2 Epikleros, #1 Flight Display, #7 Honorable Member, #5 One Religion
Fairview Polytrack, 07.11.2025, Race 6, Gallops, 1600m, Poly, R90.000, 15:30GMT+2
Race Summary: WINTER EMERALDS is unbeaten in two starts in the Polytrack. Both those wins were easy and he may well win again. ONE SCOTCH and DYNALLEY both like this surface and could be dangers. KINGDOM OF HEAVEN is in good form and clearly not out of it
Selections: #4 Winter Emeralds, #7 One Scotch, #8 Dynalley, #9 Kingdom Of Heaven
Fairview Polytrack, 07.11.2025, Race 7, Gallops, 1300m, Poly, R79.000, 16:05GMT+2
Race Summary: CHERRY OH BABY was not beaten far on local debut. She will be fitter this time and can score. MARSHMALLOW is not reliable but is capable of winning a race like this. SPOIL YOURSELF quickened nicely to win her latest start and could follow up this shorter distance. GENOVEFA is capable of better than the showed last time out and could earn some money.
Selections: #2 Cherry Oh Baby, #4 Spoil Yourself, #1 Marshmallow, #5 Genovefa
Fairview Polytrack, 07.11.2025, Race 8, Gallops, 1200m, Poly, R76.000, 16:40GMT+2
Race Summary: TEEREX makes his local debut. He has been consistent of late and could score. RAVILIOUS has been in good form of late and would not be surprise winners. THE ROARING ROCK is still improving and has claims in this line-up. WAR LAUNCH is back in form and is also capable of scoring.
Selections: #12 Teerex, #14 War Launch, #5 The Roaring Rock, #4 Ravilious
HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE, 07.11.2025, Race 4, Gallops, 1900m, Turf, R100,000, 16:55GMT+2
Race Summary: FINE WINE has been knocking at the door for some time now and will never get a better opportunity to shed maiden. INTRO was a beaten favourite last run but did not go on with her effort. That was on the poly and the switch back to turf could suit. SHEEZAROCKET is seldom too far back and the step up in trip could bring out the best.
Selections: #5 FINE WINE, #7 INTRO, #8 SHEEZAROCKET, #3 SKIPPER O’MALLEY
HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE, 07.11.2025, Race 5, Gallops, 1600m, Turf, R120,000, 17:30GMT+2
Race Summary: HARUN AL RASHID has not shown since his maiden win but obviously has some issues given that he is lightly raced. He is down four pounds in the ratings and is one to watch in the market. QUERARI’S DREAM has the best of the draw and has been close up in his last two. He gets a stronger rider aboard. There should be very little between PAPA C and RICCARDO the former looking to be the better proposition given the he meets his rival at the same weights as when they met two runs back.
Selections: #4 HARUN AL RASHID, #1 QUERARI’S DREAM, #5 PAPA C, #2 RICCARDO
HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE, 07.11.2025, Race 6, Gallops, 1400m, Turf, R125,000, 18:05GMT+2
Race Summary: COGNAC looks to be top class, winning both of his starts to date. But this is his first try at 1400m with top weight and the worst of the draw. Possibly just a warm-up before heading to the Cape. SAFE TRAVEL showed up well in his handicap debut behind what looks to be a more than useful winner. He has a fair draw and should be a big threat. ROOSTER BRADSHAW was in need of his last run but not far back and should run another good race. Given the riding engagements, DRICUS could be the best of Andre Nel’s trio. He started favourite in his local debut and can come on from that.
Selections: #12 COGNAC, #5 SAFE TRAVEL, #3 DRICUS, #8 ROOSTER BRADSHAW
HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE, 07.11.2025, Race 7, Gallops, 1000m, Turf, R110,000, 18:45GMT+2
Race Summary: DARK MATTER does not have the best of draws but was close-up in a strong field last time out even though carrying a light weight. Down on class she should make a fist of it. SHIPINDANI needed her last run at Durbanville and was not far back. Lightly raced she can go close here. CRAFTY CROFTY was close-up in a useful field over course and distance last time out. She gets the benefit of a useful 4kg claimer and should run well. AMEN CORNER makes her local debut. She had modest Cape post maiden form but has a light weight and is one to watch.
Selections: #9 DARK MATTER, #4 SHIPINDANI, #1 CRAFTY CROFTY, #8 AMEN CORNER
HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE, 07.11.2025, Race 8, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R150,000, 19:20GMT+2
Race Summary: CATS PAJAMAS ran a cracker behind I Am Giant in his comeback run after a break. He has drawn on the outside here but is well in at the weights with a useful 4kg claimer aboard and he rates the horse to beat although he faces two class acts in former Equus Champion DAVE THE KING and Gr1 Champions Cup winner GLADATORIAN this pair would prefer further but their class can carry them through. SOHO STAR is course and distance suited and should put in a strong showing.
Selections: #8 CATS PAJAMAS, #7 GLADATORIAN, #6 DAVE THE KING, #1 SOHO STAR
HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE, 07.11.2025, Race 9, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R100,000, 19:55GMT+2
Race Summary: PHUTULICIOUS is showing signs of coming to hand again and has dropped to a more competitive rating. RHYTHM was finishing well under a big weight last time out and appears to have come to hand again. IN THE BAG has been knocking on the door for his second win and has much in his favour. BARRY DU GROND found his best form on the poly last run. He has always struck as something of an under achiever.
Selections: #7 PHUTULICIOUS, #5 RHYTHM, #8 IN THE BAG, #2 BARRY DU GROND
Best Win: #2 ENCHANTING CHOICE #8 CATS PAJAMAS
Best Value Bet: #7 PHUTULICIOUS
Best Longshot: #12 TEEREX #4 HARUN AL RASHID
