Fairview Poly Selections
Race 1 – 1100m (Conditional Maiden)
CONNECTION has good form and gets the appie for this race, so races with 56kgs. He may not be the stable elect, but I think he can win the opener on Monday.
Suggested Bet – CONNECTION EW @ 5/1✅ EW Place
Race 2 – 1300m (Conditional Maiden)
TARTAN QUEEN ran on well last time, especially after a slow start. That form line has produced multiple winners. If she jumps on terms, she can run into the money.
Suggested Bet – TARTAN QUEEN EW @ 5/1❌
Race 3 – 2000m (Conditional Maiden)
DANCE MO has produced two pleasing runs and will love the rise to 2000m. She carries a handy galloping mass of 54.5kgs and can be competitive in this field.
Suggested Bet – DANCE MO EW @ 5/1❌
Race 4 – 2200m (Classified Stakes)
GIVE US A SMILE is weighted to finish in the money, and I like his chances. He showed last time out, he can stay the 2200m, and with some luck, he can claim his second win in his career.
Suggested Bet – GIVE US A SMILE EW @ 4/1❌

Race 5 – 1900m (MR 64 Handicap)
SLAINTE MHATH’s last start was good, especially as he was coughing post-race. He will love the rise to 1900m and in this company, can return to winning ways. He carries a hefty mass of 59.5kgs but can finish in the money with some luck.
Suggested Bet – SLAINTE MHATH EW @ 5/1✅ EW Win
Race 6 – 1600m (FM 62 Handicap)
You can ignore MILLIONDOLLAR GIRL’S last start as she stumbled out the gates and fly-jumped. She can be competitive in this weak race if she gets off to a better start.
Suggested Bet – MILLIONDOLLAR GIRL EW @ 10/1❌
Race 7 – 1100m (Classified Stakes)
LADY CRUSADE needed her first run in a new province and will strip better. She brings fair Highveld form, and with a better effort, she can win against these rivals.
Suggested Bet – LADY CRUSADE EW @ 5/1✅ EW Win
Race 8 – 1200m (MR 64 Handicap)
The last race of the day, and I am taking a speculative punt on GREAT TIMES. On weight turnarounds, he won’t win and may even struggle to place. However, his last two starts have been good, and if he can confirm those efforts, he could sneak a place. It’s a small EW play on a more speculative play than anything else.
Suggested Bet – GREAT TIMES EW @ 15/1❌
Note: Betting odds are correct at the time of writing, but odds are subject to change.
