TOP BET FOR TODAY
Race 2: IMPERIAL RUBY (1)
Jockey: W Kennedy - Trainer: C Spies
IMPERIAL RUBY has shown very good form since winning his maiden race over this distance. He ran an absolute cracker in the Sea Cottage Stakes last time over nine furlongs. He was sitting last turning for home and ran on powerfully to finish just under three lengths behind the winner. In form Warren Kennedy takes the ride this afternoon and he should get back to winning ways.
Race 5: MYTHICAL BOLT (3)
Jockey: L Ferraris - Trainer: S Tarry
MYTHICAL BOLT showed good speed when winning his last start over 1160m at Turffontein. The son of Captain Al comes off a short 10-week break, but his conditioner is no stranger to bringing his horses back to the races fit for their return and he may be able to win two in a row under Luke Ferraris.
Race 7: DESTINYS GAME (2)
Jockey: W Kennedy - Trainer: P Peter
DESTINYS GAME found betting support in her last start when travelling down to Hollywoodbets Scottsville. She was a tad disappointing that day, as she lacked a finish up the straight. She has won once and finished third once from three runs over this c&d. From pole position, she could get back to winning ways.
Race 8: OH MERCY ME (1)
Jockey: G Lerena - Trainer: A Laird
OH MERCY ME'S last four runs have been good. She stayed on well at the business end of her last race and finished just 1.55 lengths behind the winner. Both of her career wins have been on this course and she will relish stepping back up in distance. Gavin Lerena knows her well and the pair may be hard to beat.
VALUE BET (EACH WAY) FOR TODAY:
Race 4: WINGS OF HONOR (5)
Jockey: W Kennedy - Trainer: B Botes
WINGS OF HONOR has come well in her last two starts. She fought hard in her last start when going down a neck to HEAR THE TRUMPET. The 5yr old mare is 0.5kgs better off at the weights for today's race and there should not be much separating them at the wire once again. Warren Kennedy does duty today and the pair merit healthy respect.
