Derby day over in South Africa and as per normal they are pushing the boat out with a 12 race card. Starting with a couple in the first and will be dipping in and out all day -

10.35 Turffontein - REDBERRY LANE and BANKABLE TEDDY - RL is lightly raced, well drawn and has won over the trip, can feature at 7;s. BT has disappointed last twice, but takes a drop back in trip and was in good form prior. Not the worst outsider ever at 20's.
 
12.15 Turffontein - LAURENT DU VAR - Juvenile form always tough to equate, but hard to knock this one in 3 runs to date and simply do not get the early 40's

12.50 Turffontein - WINTERS FORGE - Kissable looks dangerous, but hopefully gets challenged upfront. WF showed a willing attitude when successful on debut and could be the beneficiary at 20's if they go too fast upfront.

1.25 Turffontein - WIND CHILL - Holding his from nicely and step up in trip looks sure to suit. Should be thereabouts at 7's

3.20 Turffontein - STONEHENGE - Stable 2nd string, who has bagged the plum draw and could be allowed to dictate from 1. May struggle this class, but shows a willing attitude and has the services of a top young jockey. Definitely worse 80/1 shots out there.
 
4.10 Newmarket - QUEEN IN WAITING - Late foal, so did well to procure a 2nd and then a win in her only 2 runs as a juvenile. Looked to have a bit in hand with her opening mark, so recent 3lb rise not a great concern. All runs to date at 5f, but should get 6f and decent EW chance at 11's.

5.00 Goodwood - DUCHESS OF FIRE - H'cap debutante, who represents a yard in top form. Opening mark looks generous and interesting on seasonal bow at 12's.

5.45 Wexford - DECISION TIME - Bred for Bumpers and fair form in all starts to date. Back off a nice break and hopeful of a step forward with Katie Walsh booked.

7.20 Doncaster - MUSTARRID - 6lb penalty a definite concern, but done well to be 2 from 3 and could easily have more to offer.
 
Plenty of the Turffontein card live on ATTHERACES, beginning with the 12.15. With reference to that race, LAURENT DU VAR, opened 28's, but has drifted back out to 40's
 
Early action from the other SA meeting as well -

12.25 Kenilworth - BENGAL TIGER - Disappointing 2nd start, but claims on debut run and therefore happy risking the 50's.
 
4.00 Turffontein - ZANTE and FLYING ICE - The former arrives here in fair form and the step back in trip looks fine. FI comes here on a career high mark of 103 and that has her right up there. Simply do not get the early 16's on offer.
 
4.35 Turffontein - ECONIUM LOVE - Lightly raced and sole win came this trip. 3rd run back off a break, top young jockey booked and definite EW appeal at 33's.
