Race 4: MISS SMARTY PANT (4)
Race 5: WILLIAM THE BRAVE (1)

TOP BET
Race 1: SUNSHINE MINT (8)
Jockey: Richard FOURIE – Trainer: Glen KOTZEN
SUNSHINE MINT showed promise on her debut over five furlongs at this course last month, finishing 2nd despite being green. This imported grey filly is expected to appreciate the step up to six furlongs.

SUNSHINE MINT(8) |
Race 3: SEA FURY (1)
Jockey: R Fourie – Trainer: Glen KOTZEN
SEA FURY has an impressive pedigree and showed great improvement after his recent break, dead-heating for 2nd. He is expected to perform even better with this run under his belt and the extra furlong will suit him.

SEA FURY(1) |
Race 4: MISS SMARTY PANT (4)
Jockey: Corne ORFFER – Trainer: Brett CRAWFORD
MISS SMARTY PANTS didn’t quicken at a mile recently but is likely to thrive dropping slightly in distance. She has shown speed in previous sprints and the recent experience should have sharpened her.

MISS SMARTY PANT(4) |
Race 5: WILLIAM THE BRAVE (1)
Jockey: Bernard FAYD’HERBE – Trainer: Joey RAMSDEN
WILLIAM THE BRAVE is flourishing with blinkers, defying his low rating to win recently. Despite a penalty and top weight, he is well placed to secure a hat-trick of wins.

VALUE BET FOR TODAY
Race 8: SPRING GOLD (7)
Jockey: Sandile MBHELE – Trainer: CJ BURGER / R VAN REENEN
SPRING GOLD disappointed recently but meets KING OF ACES on 7kgs better terms today, making him a strong value bet.
