RACE BY RACE PREVIEWS: FAIRVIEW@2026.11.13
Fairview, 13.11.2026, Race 1, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R100.000, 12:10GMT+2
Race Summary: HERE COMES JOHNNY has clearly been waiting for the grass and was not disgraced in open company. He can win at this level but has had numerous chances of doing so. PRETTY BOY could surprise back on the turf. NORDIC SPY likes this course and distance but is returning from a break. BANANA SPLIT is a well-bred filly making her local debut. She may need further than this distance to be seen at her best. NORSE WARRIOR is better on the Polytrack but might play a minor role. MOETHEMONEYMAN was backed to win on local debut and has a chance. TURBULENT has been threatening to win a race for some time and is not out of it.
Selections: #11 Here Comes Johnny, #8 Moethemoneyman, #10 Turbulent, #2 Pretty Boy
Fairview, 13.11.2026, Race 2, Gallops, 1400m, Turf, R92.000, 12:45GMT+2
Race Summary: YOU’RE MY ANGEL was seen to be finishing off her race pretty nicely last time out and could like this course and distance. LOLLY WILLOWES is consistent and would not be a surprise winner returning from a short break. TOTAL ERUPTION is not reliable but did run well over this course and distance last week. ROSES FOR TREX is capable of improvement and must be respected in this line-up. QUEEN OF CASTILLE and KITANA’S JOY have some fair form and could make the frame.
Selections: #4 You’Re My Angel, #2 Lolly Willowes, #8 Kitana’s Joy, #1 Total Eruption
Fairview, 13.11.2026, Race 3, Gallops, 1600m, Turf, R112.000, 13:20GMT+2
Race Summary: An interesting race. MARCHLAND is unbeaten in five starts and there is every reason to think she will hit them for six. NORMA DELPHINE has only been modest so far but is improving and might play a minor role. GLOBAL THRILLER has been very consistent of late and must be respected for that. WO ZAI makes a local debut and could fight out the finish with his stable companion. GIMMETHATWORLDCUP was an expensive failure last time out and has been best on the Polytrack but cannot be written off just yet and he is a threat.
Selections: #1 Marchland, #6 Wo Zai, #4 Global Thriller, #7 Gimmethatworldcup
Fairview, 13.11.2026, Race 4, Gallops, 1800m, Turf, R92.000, 13:55GMT+2
Race Summary: A weak race and FIRE FORCE makes his local debut. He is a long-time battler but can win at this low level. STRAIGHT RED is battling for a first success but can earn some money. CAPRANICA is a lot better than his last run and could benefit from having Richard Fourie in the saddle. BUGLE showed improvement last time out and could be a threat. DOUBLE DISTILLED, WITCHING HOUR and LUCA DA WHEELS have all tended to lack a strong finish but could make the frame if at their best.
Selections: #1 Fire Force, #3 Capranica, #6 Witching Hour, #7 Luca Da Wheels
Fairview, 13.11.2026, Race 5, Gallops, 1000m, Turf, R110.000, 14:30GMT+2
Race Summary: GASLIGHT DANCER has been a disappointment on the Polytrack. She is better judged on her two wins on the grass in her last two races on the surface. It is a tricky race and she has many dangers. HONORINE’S GIMMIE has very good form with blinkers and can make all the running. VENTURA BOULEVARD was tried in Group 1 company earlier this year so must have some ability and deserves the utmost respect. DETAILED FORECAST could be a threat with Andrew Fortune in the irons. CAPE SAFFRON is consistent and makes her local debut but may find some of these too speedy on the day.
Selections: #7 Gaslight Dancer, #9 Ventura Boulevard, #1 Honorine’s Gimmie, #2 Detailed Forecast
Fairview, 13.11.2026, Race 6, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R104.000, 15:05GMT+2
Race Summary: A competitive looking race and it might pay to go wide in this leg of the Pick 6. CASPERITA is in good form and can go one better. CALL OF THE KAROO is in good form and would not be a surprise winner. DESERT CLOUD is not an easy ride. She has, however, run in better races than this and should be included in all bets. IONA CASTLE has been a disappointment of late but is also capable of winning a race of this nature. INSPIRATION did not show her best form last time out but is one of a few more that could bounce back to score.
Selections: #2 Casperita, #3 Call Of The Karoo, #5 Iona Castle, #4 Desert Cloud
Fairview, 13.11.2026, Race 7, Gallops, 1400m, Turf, R190.000, 15:40GMT+2
Race Summary: MY BEST SHOT was not disgraced when third after a long break. He meets some bang-in-form rivals, with ALL SYSTEMS GO looking a real threat. This Dean Smith-trained runner returned to his best with a solid victory in the final leg of the Polytrack Challenge and can score again over distance that clearly suits him. GUY GIBSON is at his very best around this distance and can contest the finish. MERCANTOUR flopped in his latest start but is at best around this distance and has won races on the grass so should not be written off just yet. ON TARGET returns from a lengthy break and a change of trainers. The betting will tell his story.
Selections: #4 All Systems Go, #6 My Best Shot, #7 On Target, #3 Guy Gibson
Fairview, 13.11.2026, Race 8, Gallops, 2000m, Turf, R100.000, 16:15GMT+2
Race Summary: An open-looking race. DOUBLE DASH has made a visit from the Western Cape so could prove a bit better than these rivals. ROYAL CELEB was not disgraced on local debut and could go one place better. GARDEN SUN and ARIVIDICIO arrive for this after solid successes and must be respected for that. ROCK ME MAMA was undone by a bad draw last time out. This is a tougher race but she would not be a surprise winner. CREPUSCOLO and SAN QUINTIN are capable of running decent races and are also not out of it.
Selections: #4 Double Dash, #1 Royal Celeb, #8 Rock Me Mama, #13 San Quintin
Best Win: #1 MARCHLAND
Best Value Bet: #7 GASLIGHT DANCER
Best Longshot: #7 GASLIGHT DANCER
