BEST BETS
RACE 2 Safe Space
A P Peter / J Botes
Ran fairly when making his debut for his new stable, now drops back to a winning trip. With the apprentice taking 4kg off his back, he’s poised to make a strong showing.
RACE 5 In A Blue Moon
M N Houdalakis / R Danielson
After several consistent runs, he won his maiden last time out. Now stepping up in trip for his handicap debut, his running style suggests that staying trips will suit him well. Each way chance.
RACE 6 Red Knot
A Ndzilana / G Lerena
In fine form, she won her maiden two runs ago and followed up with a strong performance last time out in handicap company. Definite chance.
RACE 9 Peace Of Mind
F P Habib / I Taka
In fine form and well drawn, she has a strong chance to follow up.
Peace Of Mind winning last time
