Race Previews Greyille Sunday (poly) Nov 6 by Andrew Harrison
Race 1
Preview: MISSIBABA has some useful Highveld form. This will be her poly debut and first run for new stable but rates the one to beat. DUNDRUM is lightly raced but her best effort has been over course and distance. A repeat will see her in the firing line. BACK IN TOWN has a tricky draw to overcome but has run two smart races over course and distance and should be thereabouts. LIL GAMBLER has had two runs since a break. She goes well on the poly and looks set to improve. (Andrew Harrison: 5-1-2-6).
Race 2
Preview: PATH TO GLORY has had two outings since returning from a lengthy break. She shows some promise and from a good draw is a big runner. ZINZARA was a beaten favourite last run but was a close-up third on her poly debut. A repeat showing will see her go close again. BABY IN BLACK has had a few chances but is in good form. He best showing shave been over course and distance. LOAST WITHOUT YOU has shown up well in two outings for her new yard. This is her third run after a lengthy break and should be primed. (Andrew Harrison: 6-1-2-3).
Race 3
Preview: BLETCHLEY has run two smart races to date. He was narrowly beaten at his second start and can go one better. SILVER RIDGE has had two starts in the Cape and made good improvement at his second start. He has a good draw here and is in with a strong chance. SECRET SERVICE is struggling to shed his maiden but has good form on the poly track. Distance suited from a good draw he could get it right this time ANGEL LANDING shows some promise. He has drawn a little deep but is progressive and another in with a chance. (Andrew Harrison: 4-9-1-2).
Race 4
Preview: Weak field. JE SUIS SILVER has shown some promise and made a smart poly debut when just beaten. She gets Marcus up and should be right there. SHE DONE GOOD has been running on strongly at recent outings. With Delpech up we could be in for a good finish. SWIIS NOTE has been knocking at the door for some time now but is struggling to win. TROPICAL WONDER has been trying further but does show some ability and can place. (Andrew Harrison: 5-7-1-6).
Race 5
Preview: Wide open. CALL ME WINTER made no show when returning from a break in soft ground at Scottsville. She has shown ability and can make major improvement here. FLY PEG FLY is back over what looks to be her optimum trip. She has been taking on stronger at recent outings and with a claiming apprentice up from a good draw should be a big runner. GINGER BISCUIT is never far back and has also been up against stronger fields at recent outings. WINTER DARLING could prove best of the Bosch runners with her light weight. She is overdue another win. (Andrew Harrison: 6-3-4-12).
Race 6
Preview: Tricky. SWAKOPMUND has come back well from a lengthy break and goes well over this course and distance. He took on much stronger last run and was far from disgraced. OUT MY WAY has run two crackers over course and distance and there should be little between him and HO’OPONOPONO who have finished on top of each other in their last two. The latter has the better gate. MR MCSTEAMY takes a ride in class but has a postage stamp to carry and has been in good form since back in blinkers. (Andrew Harrison: 3-7-5-10)
Race 7
Preview: THE ROYAL RUMBA is having his third start after a lengthy break. He is right down in the ratings and has shown up well in two starts over shorter. This is his optimum trip and he should go close. UNBELIEVABLE CHAD has been a touch disappointing but a matter to time before he finds his best form. He is also well down in the ratings and now looks competitive. JAMA never runs a poor race. He was a game winner last time out and has a strong chance again. MERCADO comes with some fair Highveld form. If he takes to the poly with a handy weight he could be dangerous. The grey PENHALIGON is always game. He has been up against stronger at recent outings and is not without a chance on his best effort. (Andrew Harrison: 3-6-4-5)
Race 8
Preview: DAWN CALLING is top class and failed narrowly in her comeback run in a useful field. She will much prefer this trip and although taking on colts she could prove more than a match. MY PAL AL went down narrowly to the highly rated Roy’s Magic last time out. He shows promise and a repeat should see him in the money again. PALLADIUM was caught late last run but has shown up well in two strong races. He makes his poly debut. WINTER IS COMING took a hefty kick up the ratings after winning his maiden by eight. This race should tell if that was justified as he takes on much stronger. He does have the best of the draw and Delpech up. (Andrew Harrison: 7-4-1-2).
Race 9
Preview: ON THAT NOTE makes her local debut can comes off some promising Cape form. She looks to have a bright chance from a good draw. QUEEN DIVA was caught late when favourite for her last start. She has improved at recent outings. UNDER THE ROSE has improved in blinkers. She has been trying further and could appreciate the drop in trip. KUDRA was a beaten favourite at her last start. Her best effort has been over course and distance and she cannot be written off. (Andrew Harrison: 5-3-8-4)
