July 5 South Africa (Fairview) form guide

You Win Again may do just that in Race 5

Race 1 (1,100m)

(5) SEPTEMBER FLOWER showed signs of inexperience on debut, but was not disgraced when third. She went one better on the turf in her next start and can repeat it back on the Polytrack.

(2) CAPE FLOWER showed improvement last time and should contest the finish.

(4) OVER THE ATLANTIC showed improvement last time and can earn some more money.

(6) TARTAN QUEEN ran her best race on this surface. Place chance.

Race 2 (1,300m)

(1) KING OF QUEEN ran fourth on July 2, but if he contests this race, he does look the one to beat.

(2) HAT HOT HAT flopped last time on the turf but should do a lot better on this surface.

(3) MAGIC PRINCE ran second on July 2. In with a say if he runs.

(4) COLONEL GREEN has some fair form and can contest the finish once again.

(6) SEXBOMB did not show much on local debut but can improve with Richard Fourie in the irons.

Race 3 (2,000m)

(4) PORTCULLIS ran well on local debut when third. That was on the turf and he tries the Polytrack for the first time.

(2) TAKE A MULLIGAN showed good improvement in his second start in the Eastern Cape and looked an unlucky loser last week. He tries the Polytrack but deserves the utmost respect.

(1) ISLAND MASTER is unreliable but was not disgraced when third last time and has run well on this surface. Not out of it.

(3) PETTEIA has been a disappointment but can contest the finish on best form.

Race 4 (1,200m)

(7) DUKE OF ORANGE is at the top of his game and was a solid winner over this track and trip last time. He can score again.

(2) EYJAFJALLAJOKULL has not been at his best lately but has run well on this surface and is not out of it.

(6) BYTHELITEOFTHEMOON likes this surface and should be involved with the finish once again.

Race 5 (1,200m)

(5) KABON KAPI is unreliable but is also not out of it.

(7) EXECUTOR and (9) ELLA’S DELIGHT are both capable of earning some money.

(3) ENCHANTED SKY likes this surface and has a place chance.

Race 6 (1,200m)

(6) MASKED VIGILANTE is not easy to trust but was a wide-margin winner on the Polytrack in his penultimate start and can bounce back to win this race.

(1) TRANSACT is capable of fighting out the finish when in the mood.
