Turffontein Selections (Betting odds are correct at the time of writing and are subject to change).
Race 1 – 1600m (Maiden Plate)
KURAMATHI has finished third in her last two starts and is progressing well. In this field, she has the form to be competitive and run well.
Suggested Bet – KURAMATHI EW @ 6/1✅ EW Win
Race 2 – 1200m (Graduation Plate)
THE SPECIALIST should win this and win it well, and is a banker for all PA’s. However, he is very short in the betting at 4/10, so for some value I like MOUNT PINATUBO to fill out the exacta.
Suggested Bet – MOUNT PINATUBO EW @ 5/1✅ EW Win

Race 3 – 1600m (Maiden Plate)
ROLL OF THE DICE has fair form and has been running well. With some luck, he can be competitive here and run into the money.
Suggested Bet – ROLL OF THE DICE EW @ 6/1✅ EW Place
Race 4 – 1800m (MR 68 Handicap)
FLAG BEARER has finished second in each of his last three races. He is due a win now, and with 51.5kgs, he is the horse to beat in this small field.
Suggested Bet – FLAG BEARER EW @ 4/1✅ EW Place
Race 5 – 1200m (FM 74 Handicap)
DANCING DORA has good form and runs well for Muzi Yeni. She is running with just 53kgs and, in this sprint race, is a leading contender.
Suggested Bet – DANCING DORA EW @ 5/1✅ EW Place
Race 6 – 1200m (FM 91 Handicap)
GOLDEN ASPEN is a sound mare and is searching for her 10th win of her career. She is carded to race with 54.5kgs, and although she is not the stable elect, she can finish in the placings.
Suggested Bet – GOLDEN ASPEN EW @ 12/1❌
Race 7 – 1450m (Pinnacle Stakes)
It is the featured race of the day, and I am in UNZEN’s camp. He won well last time and is getting 6kgs from PUERTO MANZANO, so I expect him to be the horse to beat here.
Suggested Bet – UNZEN EW @ 4/1✅ EW Win
Race 8 – 1450m (MR 74 Handicap)
GOLDEN PAVILION has consistent form, and his consistency should be rewarded with a win soon. He carries 59kgs, but with some luck in running, he should fight out the finish.
Suggested Bet – GOLDEN PAVILION EW @ 5/1✅ EW Place
