Candiese Lenferna captured this grey on a grey day at Hollywoodbets Scottsville – but the sun was shining today!
Delayed from Sunday, the Hollywoodbets Scottsville racemeeting goes ahead on Monday on heavy ground.
Rainfall of 45mm was registered in the seven days to Saturday, with pen 31 on the standside and 32 on the inside track.
Reports are that the KZN Capital City was under sunshine today and things look set to proceed with racetimes remaining the same as the original slot.
Don’t forget about the free to play Hollywoodbets Punters Challenge and the first is due off at 11h55.
Trainer Vaughan Marshall saddles Icy Blast in Race 2 and he is the best bet on the programme.
He was not disgraced when fourth in the Grade 3 City Of Cape Town Cape Of Good Hope Nursery last time. He showed good speed but was outrun late.
It must be noted that Winter Cloud has come out and won again since. He returns from a 12-week break, during which time he was gelded. The son of Erupt meets the right field and if not in need of the run, he should take a power of beating.
Ensuing, also from the Vaughan Marshall stable, takes his place in Race 8.
He was running on when second over 1400m last time. The drop to 1200m is no concern as he has won twice from four starts over this distance.
The son of William Longsword takes a slight drop-in class and he will be mowing down the frontrunners.
The false rail we be set at 9m.
Please note that Jason Gates is not riding.
