Trainer Justin Snaith’s stable continues to be in hot form and with 14 runners on Saturday’s eight-race card, they can be expected to have even more winners.
He sends out Churchhaven and Taking Silk in Race 3 and the former looks the better of the two. Churchhaven returned from a rest, during which he was gelded, to finish second behind Salvator Mundi over 1400m.
He was doing his best work late in the race which suggests the step up to 1600m for the first time will be to his liking and, with further improvement expected, Churchhaven should open his account under stable jockey Richard Fourie.
Snaith has another strong coupling in Race 5 over 1400m and either of his runners, both last-start winners, could land the spoils.
Green Light Gal scored for the second time in four career starts when leading throughout over this trip last time and similar tactics could pave the way for back-to-back successes.
She beat stablemate La Quinta by 5.80 lengths when winning last time out but the latter, who has won subsequently, is expected to pose more of a threat on 4kg better terms with Grant van Niekerk now booked to ride from an inside No 3 draw with just 52.5kg to shoulder.
Snaith saddles a three-pronged attack in Race 6 but it could pay to follow the progress of impressive last-start scorer Gertrude Bell who dismissed her field of maiden rivals despite showing signs of inexperience in just her second outing.
This Kingsbarns filly is open to any amount of improvement on handicap debut and could well prove better than her rivals.
The Listed Southeaster Sprint over looks wide open but there is a slight preference for in-form Cartel Captain.
