HOLLYWOODBETS GREYVILLE - DURBAN JULY DAY - POST THE WINNERS BELOW

I would hope that the authorities send aq vet to verify the 'high temperature' and not just take trainers word??
Imagine how much ante post money was on Star Major!!!

Is there july card call for Hollywood this evening

I know it's happening at hollywood bets Springfield, not sure time

These idiots are showing JHB trainer and others to preview 4Q at their best 

Thank u

Should Wish List win the July, she would become the only 3yr old  filly since Igugu to win carrying 54.5. Not to mention the 59yr old jockey winning both the Met & July in the same year after falling short for decades.

I see a Wish list win as a massively odds defying result!!!

BOOSTED ODDS tonight from 6pm -7pm at WSB:  bit.ly/JulyFullCard

 

From our whatsApp group

Justin is excited about his chances on the day and couldn’t be more pleased as the big day approaches. Here are his comments for Hollywoodbets Durban July Day.

_Race 1_
- Song to the Moon has travelled well to KZN and is not without a place chance as he makes his Polytrack debut.
- Magma Magic looks the value bet in the opener at 10-1.

_Race 2_
- Please Be True is in great shape, has drawn well and, with Keagan de Melo aboard, should go very close.
- World Of Our Own also looks like value at 12-1.

_Race 3_
- Magic Verse has come to hand at the right time. He’s capable of causing an upset in an open race.
- Field Marshall looks a sneaker at 10-1.

_Race 4_
- Ahead Of The Facts’ last run was outstanding and eye-catching. If he has some luck from a wide draw, he’ll be the one to beat.

_Race 6_
- The Cullinan has settled beautifully in KZN and has an each-way chance at 14-1.
- Vibe Check will be the danger.

_Race 7_
- Regulation’s first four starts after his wind operation were outstanding, bar his last run where everything went wrong. He’s an incredibly well-weighted horse and, from draw No. 2, cannot be left out of any bets.
- Legal Counsel keeps improving and has earned his top weight. He has a mountain to climb, but he’s as game as they come. The weights are stacked against him, but he’s not without a winning chance. If they let him go his own tempo out in front, he’ll be a hard horse to peg back.
- Wish List beat the colts in the Gr1 Cape Derby and she goes for five in a row. She doesn’t like losing and will fight it out. She is a star in the making and is the one to beat.
- Native Ruler was unlucky in this race last year but showed he is very much up to this level. He’s not without a chance with the in-form Keagan de Melo aboard. He’s worth including in all bets, particularly if the race is run at a true pace.
- Note To Self didn’t run his race in the Gr1 Daily News, but that has worked in his favour as he is now better off at the weights. This race has always been his main mission and he’ll be right in the shake-up. He’s back to his best and is in with a huge shout. Richard Fourie has serious BMT and knows how to win Gr1 races.

_Race 8_
- Double Grand Slam has nothing more to prove and was unlucky in her recent Gr1. She’s been tremendous this season, having already won two Gr1 races. She’s undoubtedly the horse to beat if things go her way.

_Race 9_
- Great Plains loves Greyville but does prefer 1400m. He’ll need things to go his way from a wide draw.
- Jet Force looks like the dark horse in the race at 20-1.

_Race 10_
- Landoftherisingsun landed the plumb draw which will be a considerable advantage. He’s worth including in all exotic bets.
- ⁠~Powerandtheglory takes no part~

_Race 12_
- Clair De Lune is absolutely flying and will take some beating.

Thoughts .. 

Race 1: Bit of a swirl – all of Ibutho, Town Crier, Place of Practice, Song to the Moon, United Front, Sommerstern, Magma Magic and Dubai Dude would have a chance;  not any scratchings as yet, but if they do come through, Hoodia would have a chance as well.
Race 2: A ‘plated’ race over 1600m, but this does not make it any easier than the first race; Please Be True is favorite, but it has never run on the Poly; if not taking a chance on Please Be True in the BP, a wise move would go many runners
Race 3: Grade 3 Handicap - strange that the top rated Magic Verse is at 60.5 kg  - leading to the fact that Tintin, Tomyris and Royal Edition are all 0.5 kg ‘out at the weights’; Tintin is top of the boards despite being all 0.5 kg ‘out at the weights’ – another wide open race
Race 4: Ahead Of The Facts does look the right one – just a slight worry that on his earlier form in January, he is held comfortably by Holding Thumbs – but 3 weeks later he turned that form around by beating Holding Thumbs by more than 3 lengths. Shoot The Rapids stays well and looks the only other one to threaten Ahead Of The Facts   
Race 5: Golden Slipper for juvenile fillies – and improvement possible of any; Alice B Toklas won the Devon Air Stakes at level weights over the track and trip and should hold a few on that run; de Melo is contracted to ride the Werner’s filly, but still interesting that he has the mount of Ocean Mistress in this race (having ridden Alice B Toklas before) while Palace of Arvernia is drawn wide but seems to have the come-on look. Tudor Rose looks outclassed but has found steady betting support  
Race 6: Golden Horseshoe for juvenile colts and geldings – and the same can be said as for the previous race; Vibe Check beat Kazenoyoni at Scottsville over this distance, but Kazenoyoni returned from a rest of 2 months – so there may be less between them;  The Cullinan, Red Spice and St Harry are others to complete the shortlist
Race 7: Gloryfied handicap where some of the ‘better horses’ do not make an appearance – one wonders what the owners are thinking – any way this seems wide open; at the weights, Viva’s Liberte seems to hold Note To Self and this race will show whether Wish List might be better than them – however Viva’s Liberte seems to be pulling in races, so who knows ? Zeitz is not racing in blinkers (in an effort to make him stay 2200m ?) Best outsider looks to be I Salute You (who should hold Zeitz) but he does seem better shorter – open …
Race 8: Looks ideally set up for Double Grand Slam – won this last year and is better off at the weights with Mon Petit Cherie, who is 3kg worse off at the weights to Quickstepgal, so in theory Quickstepgal should hold both, but Quickstepgal might be better over 1400 (she has beaten Wish List over 1600 last year in December) – so safest to include all 3 …
Race 9: Buffalo Storm Cody on form looks to hold all these, but a slight doubt is that he was beaten in this race last year (where he subsequently won the Mercury) – so it might be that he uses this race as a sharpener to the Merchants; dangers aplenty – Kaalvoet from pole position; Princess of Gaul does seem better over 1400; Tenango who ran on strongly last year from a wide draw; Speedman, who should hold Kaalvoet; Ziayasha who has the stable rider; One Eye On Vegas who seems better further; Café Culture who is back in form and even Future Variety who looks better over 1200 (Michel to ride after the scratching of Jerusalema Rain ???) and Dave The King and Cat’s Pyjamas …
Race 10: Yet another open handicap as witnessed by the betting; Better Man, Pay the Palace, Imposing and JP’s Palace look the most likely ones, but Green Gateway, Captain West and even the controversial Talk To The Master have chances
Race 11: Plenty of runners having a chance, but many of these have not run on the Poly yet; tentatively I am going for Buttercup Baby from Lock and Key
Race 12: According to Snaith’s comments, this should be another winner for him – but she has not run on the Poly before; looks as difficult to predict as the first race – either go for Snaith or the field …
