WSB Best Bets

Race 2: Princess Goldie

Trainer: D Kannemeyer / Jockey: C Zackey
Analysis: Ran well on her return last time out and should be cherry-ripe today. Could go close to breaking her maiden.

Race 3: Good Living

Trainer: P V Lafferty / Jockey: M Yeni
Analysis: Has been knocking on the door with multiple close finishes and should be a strong contender once again. Watch for market support!

Race 5: Global Movement

Trainer: M N Prinsloo / Jockey: G Lerena
Analysis: Has been holding form nicely and wasn’t disgraced on the polytrack last time out. Back on turf, he should be a serious player.

Race 8: Regeneration

Trainer: R A Hill / Jockey: G Lerena
Analysis: Two runs, two wins at Greyville over 1200m and 1400m. If she continues to improve, she’ll be tough to beat here!
