🔥 WSB’s Top Racing Tips

Race 2 – Quiet Winter

🏇 Trainer: M N Houdalakis | Jockey: C Zackey
Form Guide: Solid reappearance expected. One of the few with racing experience – that edge could prove decisive.

Race 3 – Scarlett Heart

🏇 Trainer: F Bronkhorst | Jockey: J R Syster
Form Guide: Tackles 2000m for the first time but brings strong recent form. If she stays the trip, she’s the one to beat.

Race 5 – Bob Lee Swagger

🏇 Trainer: C Mayhew | Jockey: P Mxoli
Form Guide: Hitting form at the right time. Drawn well and should be competitive once again.

Race 7 – Phil The Fluter

🏇 Trainer: R Klaasen | Jockey: K Matsunyane
Form Guide: Back-to-back wins and has momentum. Could challenge again if the handicapper hasn’t caught up.

Race 9 – Blizzard Snow

🏇 Trainer: A P Peter | Jockey: M Mbuto
Form Guide: Loves this track and trip. Reliable performer who could end the day on a high for punters.
