Fairview Racecourse plays host to an eight-race programme on the turf track this afternoon.
Trainer Kumaran Naidoo and jockey Calvin Habib team up in four races, all of which have a decent each way chance and must be included in all permutations.

The first is due off at 12h25.
Eshraaq from the Gavin Smith stable takes her place in Race 3.
She set the pace in her last start over 1900m, fought hard but found one too good in the form of Get It Done. The daughter of Philanthropist should enjoy the drop to the mile and from her good draw of three, she should shed her maiden tag in this type of field.
Vihzoe’s Magic from the Kumaran Naidoo stable represents decent each way value in the lucky last.
She finished 2.85 lengths behind Bold Decision last time. She is 3kgs better off at the weights today and that should be enough for the tables to be turned. The daughter of Willow Magic always gives of her best and from her good draw of four, she may find herself in the winner’s enclosure.
Please note that Ryan Munger is not riding today.
