WSB Best Bets – Horses to Watch
Race 1 – Slender Silhouette
Jockey: Craig Zackey
Trainer: Sean Tarry
Showed good pace but lacked extra over 1200m last time. She’s back over 1000m and looks set to make amends.
Race 3 – Wayne
Jockey: Gavin Lerena
Trainer: Lucky Houdalakis
A well-bred sort who should improve sharply after a fair debut. The extra distance will suit, and he looks a strong contender for top honours.
Race 4 – Sky Pillar Rock
Jockey: Gavin Lerena
Trainer: Robyn Klaasen
Finished well over 2000m in his latest start and could appreciate the extra ground. Holding form well and deserves respect.
Race 5 – Lonely As A Cloud
Jockey: Serino Moodley
Trainer: Candice Dawson
With the stable in red-hot form, this runner wasn’t far off stronger company last time and should enjoy dropping in class. A big chance.
Race 8 – Majalun
Jockey: Muzi Yeni
Trainer: Mike Azzie
Drops back in trip after two runs over further and has the pace to feature prominently. Worth including in all bets.
