Louis Mxothwa takes the ride on Afrique in Race 2 today (Pic – Chase Liebenberg)
Trainer Brett Crawford sends out Afrique in Race 2 and he looks to be the best bet on the programme.
He produced a promising debut effort over this course and distance, five weeks ago. He raced from just off the pace and stayed on nicely at the finish.
It must be noted that multiple horses from that form line have come out and won since.
The son of Querari would have gained from the experience and with the natural improvement that is expected, he should take a power of beating under Jockey Louis Mxothwa.
Wylie Jack from the Andries Steyn stable takes his place in Race 9. He has good recent form lines to his credit.
He was running on when third over this course and distance last time. He won his penultimate start over this course and distance, in this Class.
Despite his big weight of 61.5kgs, he may be the one to side with.
