Hollywoodbets-sponsored Trainer Corne Spies sends out William Robertson in the Non-Black Type Marula Sprint.

He was running on too late when a beaten odds-on favourite over 1100m on this course last time.

He has won twice and finished second once from four starts over this course and distance.

It is encouraging that the red-hot Ryan Munger, who rode four winners at Turffontein yesterday, steps into the saddle and he should return to winning ways.

Happy Analia from the Tienie Prinsloo stable takes her place in Race 8. She has consistent recent form lines to her credit.

She finished 3 lengths behind Emerald Green in her penultimate run.

She is 5kgs better off at the weights today and that should be enough for the tables to be turned. If keeping on a straight line, she should be the one to beat.
