Hollywoodbets Scottsville plays host to an eight-race programme headlined by two feature events today.
The first is due off at 12h20 and selections for the free-to-play Hollywoodbets Punters’ Challenge must be in at least 5 minutes before the first is off.
Please note that Gavin Lerena is not riding today due to family responsibility reasons.

Trainer Justin Snaith sends out Hollywoodbets Durban July entry Future Swing in the Gr3 Tote Derby. He finished 1.4 lengths behind Field Marshal last time.
He is 5.5kgs better off at the weights today and that should be enough for the tables to be turned.
Ridgemont-sponsored Jockey Richard Fourie is likely to use his early gate speed to overcome the widest draw and he can return to winning ways.
Serpentine Fire from the MJ Odendaal stable may be the horse to close off the meeting.
He finished 0,95 lengths behind Honor Of Kings last time. He is 1.5kgs better off at the weights today and that should be enough for the tables to be turned.
The son of Potala Palace should be ideally suited to this distance. He jumps from pole position with Callan Murray booked to ride and can notch up his second-career victory.
