Greyville Poly Selections
Race 1 – 1400m (Maiden Plate)
RECORD HIGH is much better than his last start on the Turf. He enjoys running on the Poly, and from pole, he should get a handy position. If he can show his previous Poly form, he will have a say in the outcome of this race.
Suggested Bet – RECORD HIGH EW @ 5/1✅ EW Win
Race 2 – 1400m (Maiden Plate)
TERIYAKI has solid form lines and is very consistent for a maiden. He has a wide draw to overcome, but with some luck, he can fight out the finish, if not too far back at the 400m.
Suggested Bet – TERIYAKI EW @ 5.5/1 Void-Scratched
Race 3 – 1900m (Maiden Plate)
BURNING MAN is knocking on the door for his maiden win. He has finished second in his last three starts. He is trying the Poly surface for the first time, and if he takes to it, he is the horse to beat.
Suggested Bet – BURNING MAN EW @ 4/1✅ EW Win
Race 4 – 1900m (MR 86 Handicap)
PIRATE PRINCE is weighted to run well and finish ahead of some of his rivals. He has fair form, and with Rachel Venniker on board, back from her Ascot success, the combination can run into the money.
Suggested Bet – PIRATE PRINCE EW @ 5/1✅ EW Win
Race 5 – 1900m (FM 65 Handicap)
ENGLISH PRIMROSE has fair form and has not finished too far from the winner’s box. She carries a handy mass of 54kgs and can feature from a good draw of three.
Suggested Bet – ENGLISH PRIMROSE EW @ 20/1✅ EW Place
Race 6 – 1600m (MR 68 Handicap)
BALLY MAGIC has won three of his last four starts and is in a good space. He is not weighted to win, and some of his rivals should get the better of him, but he’s in top form and can show. With some luck in running, he can finish in the placings.
Suggested Bet – BALLY MAGIC EW @ 7/1❌

Race 7 – 1200m (MR 76 Handicap)
PREEMPTIVE STRIKE has good form and has won recently. He is a hard knocker and loves running from the back. If he is not too far back at the 400m mark, he will be mowing them down at the finish.
Suggested Bet – PREEMPTIVE STRIKE EW @ 6/1❌
Race 8 – 1000m (MR 65 Handicap)
VISION OF WILL has placed in her last two starts and gets the 4kg claimer. Carded to race with 57kgs and from a number one draw, she is a lively contender in the lucky last. I expect her to finish in the money as long as she gets luck in running.
Suggested Bet – VISION OF WILL EW @ 7/1❌
