Fourie Has A Best Shot And More At Fairview Today

First due off @ 12h25

Fairview plays host to an eight-race programme on the turf track this afternoon with the first due off at 12h25.

Ridgemont-sponsored Jockey Richard Fourie has six rides booked with a few decent winning chances and he may be worth following throughout the day.

My Best Shot from the Alan Greeff stable takes his place in Race 3 under Richard Fourie and he is a possible Pick 6 banker.

He was an easy winner of his last start over 1600m on the polytrack. He took the lead at the 400m mark that day and won with a ton in hand. He has been gelded since that outing.

The son of Fire Away has won three times and finished third once from as many starts over this course and distance.

He is the class horse in this contest and should be the one to beat.

Trainer Kelly Mitchley sends out Passchendaele in Race 8 and she may be the horse to close off the meeting.

She was not disgraced when fifth in the Betway Gr3 Carry On Alice Stakes last time. It must be noted that multiple horses from that form line have come out and won since.

She has won once, finished second once and third once from five starts on this course. The daughter of Querari has class about her and may be the one to side with.
