With Richard Fourie riding at the WSB Gauteng Summer Cup meeting, the Drakenstein Stud sponsored jockey looks set to have a profitable day.
Jimmy The Rich writes that Pray For Rain from the powerful Dennis Drier stable is the best bet on the card.
He set the pace in the Gr2 Epol Umkhomazi Stakes last time and stayed on well in the latter stages.

He returns from a 13-week break today, during which time he would have strengthened up.
The son of Soft Falling Rain has won once over this course and distance and if not in need of the run, he should be the one to beat.
Collins Stud Farm bred son of Vercingetorix, Bereave just won on debut over 1200m.
He lost a length at the start that day, but got up where it matters most. It must be noted that there have been multiple winners from that form line.
The manner in which he finished off his debut effort suggests he will enjoy the extra distance on offer.
He takes on stronger today, but could be anything and may be up to the task at hand.

Pray For Rain has now got alumites on the front and remains unshod behind.
The false rail on the winter course is set at 1m out from the 1700m mark with a 4m spur at the 470m mark.
