The weekend’s racing kicks off in Port Elizabeth where an eight-race programme is scheduled on the polytrack at Fairview.
It is an early start to the day with the first race due off at 11h50.
Greg Cheyne rides Santa Therese in Race 7 today.
Bobby Bean writes that the best bet on the card comes in Race 7 with Santa Therese.
This 3yo filly has hardly put a foot wrong in her career thus far, having finished in the money in all three of her starts.
Her latest outing which was in a feature saw her going down by just a short head to the eventual winner, Fly My Flag. She makes her Handicap debut this afternoon and may be too good for this field.
The value bet on the card comes in Race 8 in the form of Basilica Santo. This 5yo gelding is never too far off the action.
He tries the mile for the first time and with Luke Ferraris aboard from a mid-field draw, the pair should be competitive at the finish.
The false rail is 3m out at the 421m mark.
