WSB Best Bets
- Race 4: Quid Pro Quo
- Trainer: B D Botes / Jockey: S Khumalo
- A win here will make history, making her the first filly to win the Grade 1 Allan Robertson, the Grade 1 Golden Slipper, and the Grade 1 Douglas Whyte Stakes.
- Race 6: At My Command
- Trainer: B Crawford / Jockey: C Zackey
- In brilliant form, and at the draw and the price looks the better value on Sunday.
- Race 7: Future Pearl
- Trainer: S G Tarry / Jockey: R Fourie
- Last year’s winner Future Pearl is my strong pick to win the World Pool Gold Cup. After his strong performance in the Durban July, he’s the one to beat!
- Race 8: See It Again
- Trainer: M L Roberts / Jockey: P Strydom
- See It Again is well-weighted and seems poised for a big run after an unlucky performance in the Durban July. However, success will depend on how the race unfolds.
Get ready for an exciting day of racing and may the best horse win!
