Ridgemont Racing’s Anton Marcus takes five rides at Durbanville today where the first of eight races gets under way at 13h50.
The national log-leader on 141 wins at an impressive 31% win strike-rate, Marcus was in fine form at Kenilworth on Wednesday where he rode a double and also picked up a treble at Greyville on Friday
The Durbanville false rail is set at 2m on the back straight with a 6m spur at approximately the 550m mark.
The skies are clear but a south-easterly head-wind is expected.
