Aug 4 South Africa (Fairview) form analysis
Race 1 (1,200m)
(3) THE ROARING ROCK did not show his best on the Polytrack. There is a chance this race will be run on the Polytrack if the rains arrive. He will prove hard to beat on the grass.
(4) AWAY WITH RED showed improvement last time and can contest the finish again.
(5) AMERICAN EAGLE is improving and is not out of it.
(7) FLIGHT ENGINEER is battling to win a race but could play a minor role.
Race 2 (1,600m)
(1) PYRO EDITION is improving and could go one better on his last good run.
(2) BOMBER BAY is holding form and will not go down without a fight for top honours.
(3) GLOBAL DRUMBEAT is also holding form and should earn some money.
(7) ZAMBEZI SUNSET is capable of improving and could earn more money.
Race 3 (1,400m)
(3) BIRD ON A WING was not disgraced on the Polytrack last time. She is probably better on the turf and should make a bold bid at a first victory.
(2) AMANATTO has not liked the Polytrack on her last two starts and could make significant improvement if this takes place on the turf.
(1) LADY BOMBER proved in need of her local debut. She will strip fitter and could fight out the finish.
(11) ATLANTIC PEARL is capable of earning some money.
Race 4 (1,400m)
An interesting race.
(5) ABOVE THE HORIZON beat a decent filly and could be well ahead of the handicapper.
(6) DUMISANI has got close to winning twice of late, and is not out of it.
(4) GOLDEN GREY picked up some confidence after a deserving first success and he can get involved with the finish yet again.
(2) GLOBETONIC is not reliable, but can contest the finish.
Race 5 (2,000m)
(2) GIMME MORE TIME does well at Fairview and does look the right one over this course and distance.
(3) MAKHACHEV is not reliable, but is also not out of it.
(7) ANATOLIAN SILVER and (8) NOTHINGELSEMATTERS are both ready to fight out the finish.
(4) NO PLACE LIKE HOME and (5) PAINITE are usually competitive, and can be involved with the finish.
Race 6 (1,200m)
(8) EYJAFJALLAJOKULL is not an easy ride, but he has had a successful year and can contest the finish.
(10) SPEED RACER and (6) FOREST SPY are all stablemates to the selection and none of them can be ruled out.
(5) DUBAI HILLS remains in good form and can fight out the finish yet again.
Race 7 (1,200m)
A very open handicap.
(3) DRESSEDTOTHENINES needed the last run and can show vast improvement.
(2) YOU'RE SO SPECIAL showed promise and could be better than her handicap rating.
(4) THREAD OF LIFE and (5) FREE WORLD are consistent and can earn some money.
(7) HUGSANDHIGHFIVES and (9) CITY OF DREAMS are better than they showed last time, and could pop up and score.
Race 8 (1,000m)
A nice race to end the meeting. It could be fought out by two recent maiden winners.
(3) DANISH DYNAMITE was very impressive last time and can follow up if as good on the turf, while (2) BUFFALO BILL was full of running on the turf last time and does have more wins in his tank.
(4) MUNCHKIN has not been far from winning, and has to be considered a possible victor.
(8) CASINO ACE and (9) CAPE CAPRI are both better than their last runs suggest, and it would not be a surprise for either to win.
