Race 1 (1,200m)

(2) PRITTI UNITED flew home late to run a cracking fourth last time. If he does not need this run back after a small break, he will go close to winning.

(7) BARRY’S BOY stayed on well for fifth last time. He should improve second-up.

(9) MEET THE KING moved like a winner last time going through the last 300m of the race, but had to settle for fourth last time. The drop in trip will help his chances.

(13) GALLIC KING ran a fair race last time. He wants more ground, but do include him in all bets.

Race 2 (1,400m)

(4) SKY PILOT ran well on debut last time. He will love the step-up to 1,400m, and from a neat draw, he can win.

(3) PERFECT IMPACT stayed on for second last time. If he can build on that run, he will go close to winning.

(5) TRIP TO CAMELOT finished fifth on debut. He will enjoy the step-up in trip. Watch him closely.

(8) WHATWILLBEWILLBE ran a great race on debut. If he gets some luck in the running from a bad draw, he will be very competitive.

Race 3 (1,600m)

(6) ROSE WOOTT got going late to finish fourth last time. She will love the step-up in trip to 1,600m, and from a decent draw, she has a good winning chance.

(3) MS SAKURA has been rested for 179 days. She ran a great second last time, so if she does not need the run back after a long break, she can win.

(2) LILTING SONG ran well from a wide draw last time. The blinkers have been fitted and she has a good draw. Watch her closely.

(5) HER WORLD ran a better race last time. If she can bring that run to the races, she can sneak into the places at a decent price.

Race 4 (1,600m)

(4) CHANCE ENCOUNTER has been very consistent. The blinkers have been removed, and from a good draw, he can win.

(6) IN MOTION fought hard to run second last time. He is in very good form, so if he stays the 1,600m trip, he will go close to winning.

(5) TUNGUSKA was disappointing last time, but if he does not need the run after a long break, he will be very competitive.

(2) QUIET PLACE stayed on well to finish just over two lengths behind Diogenes on debut. Include him in all bets.

Race 5 (1,950m)

(3) WORLD FIRST could be some serious value in this race. His bad draw at Durbanville last time did not help, but he gets a good draw and will love the step-up in trip.

(7) TIME HONORED ran a great third last time. With that form, he has a winning chance.

(9) GREENCHOICE stayed on well for third last time. He steps up in trip and gets the 1.5kg apprentice claim off his back. He will be right there in the finish.

(10) CASSANDRA’s form is good. If she can beat the tricky draw, she might be able to finish close.

Race 6 (1,800m)

(3) WEHAVEASITUATION finished powerfully for third last time. Jockey Andrew Fortune knows this mare well. She will be just off the speed early and will be running on strongly late.

(7) SPECIAL GLAMOUR won last time. If she gets some luck, she can go back-to-back.

(8) TOTHEMOONANDBACK must have a good each-way chance. He has run two very good races in succession. The drop back in trip will help his chances.

(2) RED STATE quickened up from a long way back to win impressively last time. She might be able to sneak into the places.

Race 7 (1,400m)

(8) POWERANDTHEGLORY showed tremendous heart to win at Durbanville last time. He should improve even further now that he steps up in trip to 1,400m. Include him in all bets.

(3) LITTLE SUZIE ran a cracking second behind Rainbow Lorikeet in the Grade 2 Gold Bracelet (2,000m) last time. She can win a race like this from a neat draw.

(2) HAT’S PRIDE needed his last run, but it was a great effort for him to run fourth. He will be much fitter. Watch him closely.

(9) HIS MAJESTY could be anything. Top jockey Richard Fourie has been booked to ride.

Race 8 (1,400m)

(6) SAACHI ONE won going away last time. She should improve with the step-up to 1,400m. With some luck in the running, she can certainly win again.

(4) TULIP FIELDS stayed on well for fifth last time. She is still improving. Include her in all bets.

(1) LA LANDONNE ran a great second last time. She is in good form and gets a good draw.

(8) ACT OF GRACE did not have much luck in the running last time. She could run a big race on her best form.
