Every reason to keep faith in United Nation

Race 1 (1,000m)

(5) POWER OF PEARLS makes her Poly debut but comes off some solid Highveld form. With a 4kg claimer up she could prove difficult to beat despite taking on males.
(6) HIGHVELD STORM was a beaten favourite last run. He has had two starts for his new stable and the switch to Poly could be the answer.
(4) DONMAGOO has improved in blinkers and should feature.
(1) CAPTAIN T has improved on the Poly and has the best of the draws.

Race 2 (1,400m)

(3) PRINS JASPAR was a beaten favourite first-up on the Poly in his KZN debut. The trip should suit.
(2) WINTER CIRCLE was fancied when making his debut but finished well back. The betting and step-up in trip could tell a story.
(9) OWNER OF CREATION is a long-time maiden but has been paying his way. Will not be far off them again but has a wide gate.
(1) DIAMOND MAKER has only had two starts and showed some improvement second run and he has the best of the draws.

Race 3 (1,400m)

(1) INFINITY EDGE has been taking on top class company of late. Makes Poly debut under a big weight but gets first-time blinkers. Can run up to her rating.
(6) VICTORY IN ORLEANS made a good start for her new stable when winning first time out. This trip should suit.
(4) BACK AT THE GEORGE is in good form and goes well on the Poly. Her last win was over course and distance.
(7) SOHOT SOWHAT has consistent Cape form over shorter but the stable is in red-hot form.

Race 4 (1,400m)

(7) TAM’S KNIGHT is lightly raced and made steady improvement leading into his last win. He has won on the Poly and can follow up.
(1) GRAND APPEAL has been consistent over the distance and has the best of the draws. He has run well on the Poly and should be right there.
(2) SPAARNE RIVIER may just have needed his last run after a short break. He does appear to be useful and must rate a winning chance.
(8) IBUTHO is always game over course and distance and tries for his 11th win.

Race 5 (1,000m)

(8) WINGS OF JOSEPHINE has a wide gate but goes well on the Poly. Has taken on stronger of late.
(6) BLAST FROMTHE PAST made no show after winning on the Poly on debut. He has been rested since and any market support will be telling.
(3) INTREPID is a solid galloper and the switch to the Poly with blinkers removed can suit.
(1) RAINBOW REWARD is seldom far back and his last win came over course and distance. He has a 4kg claimer aboard that should help his chances.

Race 6 (1,200m)

(2) QHAWEKAZI was a close-up second to the much improved De Vlugge from a wide draw last time. Drawn better here.

(5) FLYING FATE won well on the Poly last time at only her second start. She is in modest company and can follow up.

(7) DECEMBER DAWN may just have needed a pipe-opener when making her local debut. Her Cape form was useful and a claiming apprentice will help her chances.

(1) CALL ME JANE may be the second string judged by jockey bookings but she does have slightly better form now.

Race 7 (1,200m)

(3) UNITED NATION has exceptional Poly form and has won over the trip. Faces a smart field but should be right there again.
(2) BLACK EAGLE comes with excellent Cape form. Big runner if he takes to the Poly.
(8) MAJOR TOMMIE has only been out of the money twice in 12 starts. His last win was over course and distance and he cannot be left out of any calculations.
(4) FORTRESS OF FIRE is smart on his day but is 3kg worse off with United Nation given their last encounter on the Poly.

Race 8 (1,200m)

(7) LIONS EYE took on much stronger last run and was not far back. He is back to a competitive mark.
(6) GORGEOUS DUDE has his peak run after a break. He loves the surface and with only 51kg to shoulder, he will be a big runner.
(11) DEFINITELY YES has a tricky draw to negotiate but is holding form well and is due a change of fortune.
(10) KALI BWANA has shown up well in two outings since her maiden win and has a money chance again.
