🔥 WSB Top Selections
Race 1 – Versace Onthetrack
Trainer/Jockey: F P Habib / S Khumalo
Insight: A promising debut effort saw him well supported in the market. With that experience under the belt, he should be tough to beat.
Race 3 – Alesian Beau
Trainer/Jockey: M Azzie / P Strydom
Insight: A solid each-way prospect. Fit, in good form, and hoping he sees out the trip – expect a bold showing at a nice price.
Race 6 – American Rebel
Trainer/Jockey: W C Marwing / G Lerena
Insight: Impressive winner over the trip last time and looks capable of handling the rise in class despite a 5-point penalty.
Race 8 – War Of Kingdoms
Trainer/Jockey: S G Tarry / C Zackey
Insight: A horse on the up and should give a good account of himself following a sharp 1200m win at the Vaal.
