Lucky Friday For Lihaba At Fairview?

First due off @ 12h30

Today’s racemeeting takes place on the turf track at Fairview Racecourse this afternoon with the first due off at 12h30.

Apprentice James Lihaba has a full book of rides with a couple of decent winning chances and he may be worth following throughout the day.

Don’t forget to take the free-to-play Hollywoodbets Punters’ Challenge on today’s local racemeeting.

Hollywoodbets-sponsored Trainer Gavin Smith sends out Then In Focus in Race 4. His last three starts have been good.

He stayed on strongly when second over 2000m on this course last time.

The son of Visionaire tries the 2400m for the first time and if seeing out the extra distance on offer, he can notch up his third career victory.

Global Goddess from the Gavin Smith stable takes her place in Race 6. She was an easy winner of her last start over 1200m on the polytrack.

The blinkers have done the trick on the daughter of Global View.

She meets similar company this afternoon and can follow up.
