Fairview Poly Friday Formguides And Selections
R1 (6) WISHES AND DREAMS wasn’t far on debut and will get much closer having that run under the belt. (4) MAKE BELIEVE is another who ran well on debut and will be right there. (5) MONEY GALORE ran well on debut and will be a lively challenger here. (1) AMIOK gets an eye-catching jockey booking in the form of Craig Zackey, she should get much closer. (Devonne Govender 6-4-5-1).
R2 (8) MASTER WIZARD hasn’t been far in recent starts, he has the best draw and plenty scope to get much closer hence he is the value selection. (2) GREEN OKRA ran well on provincial debut and will be a strong contender for top honours, he will go close so respect. (1) GRAND ALLEGRO has been knocking on the door and will have a big chance here. (3) BROOKSIDER is never far back and can get into the placings. (Devonne Govender 8-2-1-3)
R3 (4) HAT MONTERA is capable of much and will be the firm first choice. She had a wide draw to negotiate in her last start and that run is best ignored. She has performed well on the turf and with the in-form claiming apprentice she represents value. (5) BATTLE OF BRITAIN has plenty scope to improve and must be respected in this contest. (3) FANTASY GIRL is never far back and steps up in distance so could get much closer. (7) CHEAP THRILLS ran a cracker in the last start and if repeating that will be a huge runner. (Devonne Govender 4-5-3-7)
R4 (1) JACK IN THE GREEN has been holding solid form. He won a gutsy race in the last start and despite the fact that he has a tough draw he will be in the firing line. (9) RED WILLIAM is knocking on the door for another career win, his recent form has been good and he will have a big chance. (5) SLAINTE MHATH was an impressive winner in the last start, he has a decent draw and will be a huge contender. (6) ROLL OF THE DICE is never far back, he is a very honest type and he will be in the mix. (Devonne Govender 1-9-5-6)
R5 (4) DARLING HARBOUR is holding solid form and will have a strong winning chance, she seems to go well on poly however she has had some tough draws in recent turf starts so will have to be respected. (1) LADY ZULTANITE has a good draw with solid form, she also gets an in-form apprentice aboard so there’s plenty to like about her chances. (9) TAKE YOUR TIME has been racing consistently and another bold showing is expected. (5) THREE CHEERS is very capable on her day and must go into everything. (Devonne Govender 4-1-9-5)
R6 (4) STRATA is holding solid form and is capable of a big finish on her day, she is the firm first choice. (5) SHARAPOVA is holding consistent form and must be included in all bets. (7) JAMBO SANA is very capable on her day, some of her better form has been on the poly so she will be a huge runner. (9) THREAD OF LIFE has never been far back and can run into the placings. (Devonne Govender 4-5-7-9)
R7 (8) FINAL EDITION is holding form and was unlucky in the last start. He could be tough to beat here. (9) HOLOCENE is another who is in great form and rates a winning chance, he will be the main danger to the top selection. (11) BOSNAY is very capable on her day and can make the placings. (4) WAZ WOUTER won a gutsy racing in the last start and can make the frame again. (Devonne Govender 8-9-11-4)
R8 (11) BRETTY ran a cracker in the last start coming from well back in the field, a repeat of that will see her go close. (6) ICE CAP is holding consistent form and will be in the firing line in an open looking race. (1) COURAGEOUS is never far back and can go very close on best form. (8) CITY OF DREAMS has run extremely well in the province and is another with a big wining chance. (13) PERFECT TRUST is a game front runner and can fill in the placings. (Devonne Govender 11-6-1-8-13)
