RACE BY RACE PREVIEWS: FAIRVIEW POLYTRACK@2026.10.23

Fairview Polytrack, 23.10.2026, Race 1, Gallops, 1200m, Poly, R92.000, 12:10GMT+2

Race Summary: DESTREGA has only found one better in both starts so far. She looks the one to beat with Craig Zackey now aboard her. Trainer Alan Greeff beat her with a runner of his last time so any market moves for POWDER DAY should be respected. She is a Real Gone Kid filly and will have Richard Fourie aboard. BUGLE returns from a break but is often competitive and can earn some more money. GREEN POINT tends to lack a strong finish but can play a minor role. NORSE WARRIOR. AMERICAN GEM and BOLD SKITT have all shown some improvement of late and can make the frame.

Selections: #3 Destrega, #4 Powder Day, #9 American Gem, #8 Norse Warrior

Fairview Polytrack, 23.10.2026, Race 2, Gallops, 1400m, Poly, R104.000, 12:45GMT+2

Race Summary: POINTER quickened up nicely on her local debut. She was consistent but overall has been a disappointing filly so far but can win a race of this nature. RHYDIAN has some ability but does not always show it. He would not be a surprise winner of this race. RUN THE WORLD needs to find a few lengths to beat these. ACTION AMERICA is clearly a lot better than his last two runs would suggest and could be a danger. SUSURRANDO is consistent and clearly not out of it. WINDOW TO MY SOUL made all the running to score last week and could play a minor role. PLAY ACT showed a form return in his latest start and is a threat if repeating that level of form.

Selections: #4 Pointer, #3 Action America, #1 Rhydian, #7 Play Act

Fairview Polytrack, 23.10.2026, Race 3, Gallops, 1600m, Poly, R92.000, 13:20GMT+2

Race Summary: RARE EARTH was a disappointment in his first two local starts but did put up a better effort last time out and could go one place better. TIME HONORED is consistent and could have that rewarded with a victory – but will it be this time? MATTER OF TRUST was well beaten last week but might play a minor role. GOOD SHINE tends to lack a strong finish but is always capable of playing a minor role. TWICE A QUEEN might be looking for further to be seen at her best, but jockey Richard Fourie continues to ride her so she must be respected. LADY OF FATE has improved of late and is not out of it. FREESTYLE DANCE makes a local debut and it could well be a winning one.

Selections: #6 Rare Earth, #1 Time Honored, #7 Lady Of Fate, #5 Twice A Queen

Fairview Polytrack, 23.10.2026, Race 4, Gallops, 1200m, Poly, R100.000, 13:55GMT+2

Race Summary: WORLDLY looked an unlucky loser last week but can go one place better. He does have the widest draw so will need luck in running. CHATTERBOX only found a promising filly a bit better last time out and is a real danger. RHYTHM is consistent but does give weight away to all his rivals. JET SET RUN has some fair form and could try and steal it from pole position draw. WISE COUNSEL only tired late on local debut and can get involved with the finish once again.

Selections: #2 Worldly, #5 Chatterbox, #1 Rhythm, #7 Wise Counsel

Fairview Polytrack, 23.10.2026, Race 5, Gallops, 1000m, Poly, R92.000, 14:30GMT+2

Race Summary: Trainer Alan Greeff has a decent hand to play in this race. SAY A PRAYER looks a promising filly and can follow up on a solid maiden win in her second start. She is returning from a break. Stable companion REMIND ME OF YOU is improving and the form of her maiden win has held up. ALESIAN BEAU picked up a confidence-boosting maiden win last time out and could have more to offer. ATLANTIC PEARL, TRULY MAGICAL, CAPTAIN CLEVER and WORSDWORTH all have chances of getting a slice of the money available.

Selections: #2 Say A Prayer, #1 Remind Me Of You, #6 Captain Clever, #7 Wordsworth

Fairview Polytrack, 23.10.2026, Race 6, Gallops, 1900m, Poly, R112.000, 15:05GMT+2

Race Summary: MASTEROFTHEBAROQUE is improving and has looked good since stepping up in distance. He may well score again. Stable companion GLOBAL ALLY has run in better fields than this all year and can earn some money. MAKHACHEV has been very consistent of late and must be respected for that. ABOVE THE HORIZON seems better than a modest last run. WORLD CHOICE won well last time out and could have more to offer. POLICY OF TRUTH, THE MIKADO and SABRAGE are all in good form and capable of contesting the finish once again.

Selections: #7 Masterofthebaroque, #8 Policy Of Truth, #9 Sabrage, #10 The Mikado

Fairview Polytrack, 23.10.2026, Race 7, Gallops, 1600m, Poly, R115.000, 15:40GMT+2

Race Summary: LADY BOMBER has won five times in the last 12 months and could win again. WISHES AND DREAMS is distance suited and could earn some more money. AQUARIUS has won her last two starts and must be respected for that. FANTINE was a game winner on Sunday and with Richard Fourie aboard could double up. FIERY COUNTESS is not reliable but is not out of it if showing her best form.

Selections: #2 Lady Bomber, #3 Aquarius, #1 Wishes And Dreams, #5 Fantine

Fairview Polytrack, 23.10.2026, Race 8, Gallops, 1600m, Poly, R99.000, 16:15GMT+2

Race Summary: ROCK ME MAMA is not well drawn but she does pack a decent finishing kick and can win with luck in running. ENDEARED has to give weight to all her rivals but is course and distance suited and could play a role. POTENZA is not well drawn but does have a place chance. ALEX MILLER continues to knock loudly at the door and can earn some more money. BOSNAY is well drawn and does not go down easily. BLOOD OF EDEN and FONTE could be better than rated and could be worth including in Pick 6 permutations.

Selections: #5 Rock Me Mama, #4 Alex Miller, #3 Potenza, #8 Blood Of Eden

Best Win: #4 POINTER

Best Value Bet: #2 WORLDLY

Best Longshot: #2 WORLDLY
