TOP BET

Race 5: UNDERCOVER AGENT(12)

Jockey: C Orffer  - Trainer: B Crawford

The three-year old UNDERCOVER AGENT was an impressive c & d minor feature winner on his local debut in his comeback effort last month and the distance specialist should again make his presence felt despite a noticeable rise in class. He isn't favourably weighted but his older rivals won't be fully tuned-up and that is a major bonus.

Race 6: SNOWDANCE(1)

Jockey: B Fayd'Herbe - Trainer: J Snaith 

The brilliant SNOWDANCE deserved the 14 week absence after her flawless Cape summer campaign which culminated with back-to-back Grade 1 victories over this trip and she will be a 'favourite' during this winter campaign in KZN. Her conditioner's horses have tended to need an outing since arriving in this province and though there are noticeable other concerns (first time around the right hand turn & under the lights), the daughter of Captain Al has all the class to make a winning local debut.

Race 7: WHITE RIVER(4)

Jockey: A Marcus - Trainer: B Crawford

The Capetonians are again extremely well-represented in this Grade 2 contest but a likely lack of pace makes things really interesting. WHITE RIVER had an eye-catching local debut behind stable companion Undercover Agent (runs in race 5) on this course last month and he will strip fitter tonight.

Race 8: RIO DE LA PLATA(3)

Jockey: A Marcus - Trainer: G Puller 

RIO DE LA PLATA stays well and brings solid form into this event. He showed his ability to quicken off a slow gallop recently and the Windrush gelding may again adopt those tactics in this event.

VALUE BET

Race 4: PERCIVAL(3)

Jockey: B Fayd'Herbe - Trainer: W Nel 

PERCIVAL's last victory came with this top jockey in the saddle and the Cape visitor can build on his smart local debut over shorter on the polytrack recently. The Var gelding is his conditioner's only entrant on the night and he is just 1kg out at the weights on official ratings.
