WSB BEST BETS
Race 2 Fantasy Girl
A C Greeff / R Fourie
Put in an improved run last time when finishing as the runner-up, just ahead of today’s rival, Project Runway. Richard Fourie takes the ride, and we’re backing her to break her maiden.
Race 4 On The Guest List
A C Greeff / R Fourie
With only one win in 20 starts and costly to get right, but considering the poor field, she could outshine today’s rivals.
Race 6 Havana Grey
A C Greeff / R Fourie
She warmed up for this with a win on the Poly, so today should be her peak run, and she can improve again to be involved at the finish.
Race 7 Fairy Knight
A C Greeff / R Fourie
He’s been in sparkling form, winning four in a row over shorter trips. If he stays this far, he’ll win doing handstands.
