After the abandonment of the Hollywoodbets Kenilworth racemeeting this afternoon, Turffontein is standalone and hosts nine races on the card, with the first due off at 12h25 and the lucky last set for 17h05.
Hollywoodbets-sponsored Trainer Fanie Bronkhorst sends out Lady Of Arc in Race 1 and she should give punters a good start to the day.
Denis Schwarz (here on Godspeed for Fanie Bronkhurst) will take the ride on Lady Of Arc for Fanie today (Pic – 4Racing)
She produced a promising debut effort when fourth over 1160m on this course. She raced from just off the pace before tiring late.
The daughter of Royal Mo would have gained from the experience and will strip a lot fitter for this run.
With the natural improvement that is expected and under pilot Denis Schwarz she may be the one to beat.
Golden Pavilion from the Alec Laird stable may be the horse to close off the meeting.
He has not finished too far off the winner in recent outings.
He raced wide early but fought hard all the way to the line.
The son of Danon Platina is likely to be settled near the rear of the field and will be mowing down the frontrunners.
Please note Nivan Nastili only claims 2,5kgs!
