RACE BY RACE PREVIEWS: FAIRVIEW@2026.06.05
Fairview, 05.06.2026, Race 1, Gallops, 1000m, Turf, R88.000, 12:25GMT+2
Race Summary: An interesting start to the card. Visiting trainer Justin Snaith has only the one entrant for the day, LUCY’S WORLD. She can win a race of this nature. CLARA LUME has not been disgraced in her two appearances and should fight out the finish. NEW DAY is nicely bred and makes her debut for the Alan Greeff-Richard Fourie combination so would not be a surprise winner. MAKEOVER MAGIC and YOU’RE MY ANGEL are capable of improvement off modest debuts.
Selections: #2 Lucy’s World, #1 Clara Lume’, #4 New Day, #7 Yours Forever
Fairview, 05.06.2026, Race 2, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R94.000, 13:00GMT+2
Race Summary: CHIEF MASTER showed good improvement to win his second start and could follow up. There are dangers though, and OLAF THE STOUT showed he is learning how to race. This Erik The Red colt was a very easy maiden winner and deserves the utmost respect. FIRST OFFICER is consistent and will not go down easily once again. JUST CARTER may have needed his last run, the first since being gelded, and has a win over OLAF THE STOUT so must be respected. RIVER VIEW was not disgraced on debut but does tackle stronger this time around.
Selections: #4 Olaf The Stout, #1 Chief Master, #2 First Officer, #3 Just Carter
Fairview, 05.06.2026, Race 3, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R96.000, 13:35GMT+2
Race Summary: A very open first leg of the Pick 6 and we may need to go as wide as possible in this leg. FRENCH FLAME is usually competitive and could be ready to score. Stable companion THE WINER LAKE is not reliable but could go start to finish. CHERRY OH BABY quickened nicely to win her latest start but this is a tougher bunch. GALE WARNING is capable of an upset after a change of trainer. ONE TOO MANY has run in better races than this and is clearly not out of it. BLAME IT ON ME is hat-trick-seeking after some solid wins. DIVO MONDO could be capable of an upset.
Selections: #3 Cherry Oh Baby, #4 French Flame, #6 One Too Many, #9 Blame It On Me
Fairview, 05.06.2026, Race 4, Gallops, 1400m, Turf, R84.000, 14:10GMT+2
Race Summary: Another tough race. FANTINE does seem better than her last run and should be a threat to these rivals. STONE OF SCONE disappointed last time out but is capable of scoring. TOTAL ERUPTION is unreliable but can earn some money. AURELIAN has a chance in a race of this nature. WORLD OF DIAMONDS, GALACTIC BEAUTY and LOVELY DANCER can also be competitive and can be included in Pick 6 permutations.
Selections: #1 Fantine, #3 Stone Of Scone, #6 World Of Diamonds, #5 Aurelian
Fairview, 05.06.2026, Race 5, Gallops, 1400m, Turf, R96.000, 14:45GMT+2
Race Summary: PERFECT IMPACT was a wide margin winner on local debut. He looks well weighted off his current rating and although tackling a lot stronger, he may well double up. CIAN THE CONQUEROR showed improvement last time out and can contest he finish. DAS GUTE picked up a penalty for his good win last week. JOHNNY DRAMA is improving and is clearly not out of it. GLOBETONIC is unreliable but capable of scoring. ACTION AMERICA and SHOW OFF are both better than their last runs would suggest. PRINCE FLORIAN was unlucky last time out and is another to consider.
Selections: #11 Perfect Impact, #8 Show Off, #7 Action America, #4 Johnny Drama
Fairview, 05.06.2026, Race 6, Gallops, 1600m, Turf, R108.000, 15:20GMT+2
Race Summary: SPLICETHEMAINBRACE disappointed last time out. She is better than that and can bounce back to beat these rivals if at her best. ENCHANTING CHOICE continued to win her races and is the obvious danger. EPIKLEROS is better over further but cannot be ruled out from winning. WISHES AND DREAMS, ACCEPT COOKIES and EAST COAST GIRL are all capable of making the frame if showing their best sides.
Selections: #1 Splicethemainbrace, #2 Enchanting Choice, #4 Epikleros, #5 Wishes And Dreams
Fairview, 05.06.2026, Race 7, Gallops, 1600m, Turf, R82.000, 15:55GMT+2
Race Summary: Another very open-looking race. IM THE BUZZ is unreliable but clearly better than her last run and quite capable of winning at this level. LAYDELAY could be better than her most recent performance. QONDANEKUKHANYENI is in good shape and has claims for the victory. ROYAL MERMAID and AMAZING COLOURS are not reliable but are also not out of it. BLUE PALACE was an unlucky loser last time out and could go one place better. NAUTICAL LANDING and MEDITERRANEANFLAME are capable of earning some more money.
Selections: #4 Im The Buzz, #6 Blue Palace, #11 Amazing Colours, #2 Qondanekukhanyeni
Fairview, 05.06.2026, Race 8, Gallops, 1000m, Turf, R90.000, 16:35GMT+2
Race Summary: Another competitive handicap. AYUWI YUWI has shown good improvement of late but is badly drawn. EXCEEDINGLY GLAM may have needed her local debut and could be a threat. MYSTICAL BUTTERFLY scored on local debut and could have more wins in her tank. ICY LANCASTER has been a disappointment in her two local starts but is well drawn and might play a minor role. STRANGE MAGIC, JAPANESE GARDEN, CAPE CAPRI, WINTERONTHEGREEN and BENEATH THE MOON have all shown enough of late to be considered possible winners.
Selections: #4 Ayuwi Yuwi, #11 Winteronthegreen, #2 Exceedingly Glam, #3 Mystical Butterfly
Best Win: #1 SPLICETHEMAINBRACE
Best Value Bet: #1 FANTINE
Best Longshot: #1 FANTINE
