Racing is at Turffontein today and its a competitive nine-race programme. T
he first eight races take place on the Inside course, while Race 9 which is the Gr3 Fillies Mile, will be run on the Standside course.
The first race kicks off at 12h25.
Jimmy The Rich writes that Southern Charm from the powerful Mike de Kock stable is one of the better bets on the card.
She may not have seen out the 1400m in the Gr3 Starling Stakes last time. She has won twice and finished second once from as many starts on this course.
The manner in which she won on debut over this course and distance was impressive.
She makes her handicap debut this afternoon and from her good draw of three, she should take a power of beating.

Oyster King, who takes his place in Race 5, is currently trading at around 8/1 with Hollywoodbets.
His last two starts over a mile against stronger have been decent.
He has won once, finished second twice and third once from as many starts on this course.
The son of Elusive Fort takes a drop in class today and from his good draw of two, he should be the one to beat.
Jockey Diego De Gouveia is off all his rides..
The false rail is 8m on the back straight and the bend with a 10m spur at the 500m mark.
