🔮 WSB Best Bets
Race 1: Like A Prayer
Trainer: A P Peter | Jockey: P Mongqawa
💬 A much-improved run last time, showing good pace over this track. Well drawn and primed to go close to breaking his maiden today.
Race 5: Rani Of Kittur
Trainer: R R Magner | Jockey: G Lerena
💬 In fine form, including a comfortable win over this distance last time out. With Gavin Lerena in the saddle, she’s a strong contender.
Race 6: Free In Seattle
Trainer: S J Gray | Jockey: M Yeni
💬 Has been knocking on the door with back-to-back second-place finishes. Stays this trip well and looks ready to convert consistency into victory.
Race 8: Lonely As A Cloud
Trainer: C Dawson | Jockey: C Zackey
💬 The stable is flying, with three wins, two seconds, and a third from their last six runners. Lonely As A Cloud won his maiden over 1000m at Turffontein two runs ago and followed up with a solid performance last time out. Could be the one to beat in the lucky last!
