🔮 WSB Best Bets
Race 2: Mountain High
- Trainer/Jockey: S G Tarry / P Strydom
- 💬 Consistently strong form, though she’s had multiple chances to secure her maiden win. One last chance today!
Race 4: Lets Play Poker
- Trainer/Jockey: M Azzie / R Danielson
- 💬 Narrowly missed completing his hat trick last time, finishing third. Still looks competitive and ready to shine again.
Race 6: Celtic Rush
- Trainer/Jockey: D Nieuwenhuizen / G Lerena
- 💬 A consistent performer with a favourable draw and a suited distance. Should be in the mix!
Race 7: Call Me Master
- Trainer/Jockey: R R Sage / G Lerena
- 💬 Impressive last win, easier than it appeared on paper. The wide draw is the main challenge, but he’s strong over this course and distance.
Race 8: Rollwiththepunches
- Trainer/Jockey: R R Magner / G Lerena
- 💬 Ran well over this course and distance last time. Expect another strong performance at the pay line!
