Durbanville Tuesday Tips and Race Previews by Warren Lenferna

Race 1
Preview: WHAT A SUMMER (1) is seldom far off the action and can get it right today. THE SILVA FOX (2) is better than his last run and can get into the action. L’HISTOIRE (8) has run fourth in both starts and can get a lot closer now – big runner. (Warren Lenferna 1-2-8)

Race 2
Preview: POLLY AGAIN (4) bumps a weak field and if reproducing and improving on the run where she finished fourth behind Double Black – she could go close to winning this. ARCTIC SIREN (1) is improving and is the horse to beat. NEGMA (9) can improve on her debut to run a place. (Warren Lenferna 4-1-9)

Race 3
Preview: FLOATING ON WATER (3) went close at long odds last time and if confirming and improving on that run can win. He is drawn well. MIDDLEMARCH (2) has placed in his last two and should do so again – strong each way chance. PARISIAN GOLD (11) showed good improvement in his second run and should get into the action. (Warren Lenferna 3-2-11)

Race 4
Preview: REBEL’S BURST (7) is taking time to win but is consistent and should win soon. MARION BELLE (8) ran a fair race on debut and has tons of scope to improve – she should be very competitive here from a top draw. JEOVANA (4) placed last time at long odds – quartet chance. (Warren Lenferna 7-8-4)

Race 5
Preview: LILY THERESA (5) is running very well and brings consistent form into the race – she is drawn a bit wide but looks ready to win again. OVER AGAIN (2) jumps from a good draw and has the form to warrant serious respect. SWIFT DANCER (4) disappointed last time but can bounce right back to best. (Warren Lenferna 5-2-4)

Race 6
Preview: CAPTAIN COURTEOUS (4) is way better than his last run – his Durbanville form is good and he is the confident first choice here from a neat draw. PEROVSKIA (5) is running well and showing some ability – expect a big run. NEVER SETTLE (1) can go close at best. (Warren Lenferna 4-5-1)

Race 7
Preview: EVELINA (3) is holding form since winning her maiden and looks ready to win again. ROMANTIC CRUSADE (5) is another holding form since her maiden win and must be respected – she is drawn well. KNOW THE ROPES (1) is much better than her last run shows and it would be silly to ignore her winning chances here. (Warren Lenferna 3-5-1)

Race 8
Preview: PACHANGA (1) made a fair debut and should come on a lot from that and looks tough to beat. BENDY BULLET (2) is coming back to best earlier form and can go close again to winning. AMAROSA (7) from the best draw has a bright chance and must be included in most bets. (Warren Lenferna 1-2-7)
