Racing takes place on the Turffontein Standside course with a nine-race programme carded for this afternoon.
Don’t forget to take the free-to-play Hollywoodbets Punters’ Challenge with the first due off at 12h05.
Pistol Pete from the Tony Peter stable should give punters a good start to the day. He was super-impressive when winning on debut over this distance on the Vaal Classic course.

He showed good speed, found another kick and won with a ton in hand.
The son of Buffalo Bill Cody found betting support that day which suggests that he was showing good work at home. He would have come on from the run and should remain unbeaten.
Trainer Robyn Klaasen sends out Cornwall in the lucky last. He stayed on when fourth over this course and distance last time.
He has won twice from five starts over this course and distance. The son of Querari takes a drop-in class.
Kaidan Brewer knows the son of Querari well and the combination may find themselves in the winner’s enclosure.
