Day 2 of Eastern Cape's FESTIVAL OF RACING - great racing on Sunday, don't miss out. The day begins with a tricky race and it could pay to catch TAB'S exotics such as the Exacta, Trifecta and Quartet. DIGITIAL WARFARE made good improvement in his second run after gelding and looks to have more to come. He has drawn ideally in gate No 2. MONKEY'S WEDDING has been knocking at the door and should go close, but along with capable DOUBLE DISTILLED has a prior engagement-those runs must be watched. There shouldn't be much to choose between WITCHING HOUR, TOTAL ERUPTION and WINDOW TO MY SOUL.

NANNIE GOLD just missed when dropping to 1000m in the Western Cape last time. The Gold Standard filly looks to have a bright winning chance on local debut. PRINCESS CHANTE was a bit unlucky not to reward followers last time. She was pipped at the post but this longer trip should suit and she can make amends. LOLLY WILLOWES and STONE OF SCONE must have claims on form. Alan Greeff debutantes GIMMETHEBEATBOYS (Richard Fourie up) and CHAMPAGNESUPERNOVA are well bred and well drawn and betting support for either could be telling. More with earning potential.

VENTURA BOULEVARD was second to classy All Systems Go last time and the Heavenly Blue filly looks the one to beat. She was an impressive winner of her only start over the trip. GASLIGHT DANCER is better than her last two runs on the poly. She is back on turf and could show her best form and is one to watch. INSTAWORTHY showed improved pace in her last start and was then rested. She has run in strong races and has her big weight lightened with a 4kg apprentice claim so must be respected. SPORTS FAN and SYMBOL OF LOVE have fair form this track and trip. Both can pop up.

ANUSCHKA'S WORLD has shown himself to be one of the top sprinters around and is deserving of his place at the top of Computaform's best weighted column. The only concern is his last three wins have come over 1200m. U S RANGER won by a street in his last race at his home base and has very good form. While he also takes a drop in distance he has been gelded and could be fresh enough to win after a rest. IMAGINABLE has turned in some eye catching finishes and could be the dark horse if not minding the switch to turf. DANISH DYNAMITE has beaten ANUSCHKA'S WORLD and must have a say.

Nice race. ASTRONOMICAL BOY showed good resolve to fight off KWAGGA BLITZ (won since) on local debut which came after quite a layoff. He has more to come and has won over the extra in the Western Cape. Stablemate ROOSTER BRADSHAW is another who won on local debut and the form was franked straight after. He can make more progress. LOTUS SILK has decent form on the poly but is arguably even better on the turf. She is best weighted and has drawn well to boot. KING VISERYS, CIAN THE CONQUEROR and BLAME IT ON ME must be respected on recent form too.

MARCHLAND took home the Grade 2 Thekwini Stakes in KwaZulu-Natal on 'Gold Cup' day showing how good she is. She meets more of her kind, talented up-and-coming individuals, but looks to have the class to remain unbeaten. FROM THE ISLAND brings fair form from the Western Cape. He finished third in the Grade 3 Langerman, a race that has been a pointer to future stars, and he could be dangerous. GIMMETHATWORLDCUP is another with more to come. He got going too late on the poly last time and should relish the extra on the turf. Nicely bred BELLO GALLICO could be the dark horse.

Smashing race! Star filly ANOTHERDANCEFORME is bidding to make it nine wins from nine tries at this track. She is back up in distance but was an easy winner of the Oaks and could reign supreme again for East Cape champion Alan Greeff. PRAIRIE DAWN could be a thorn in her side with just 52kg. He was only just beaten in two strong Western Cape features and looks a worthy contender for national champion trainer Justin Snaith. ZATARA MAGIC won the 2025 Cup easily but has a bit to find with ANOTHERDANCEFORME. He is not out of it. BAD MEDICINE is unbeaten at this track but will be tested. More in it.

Wide open - include as many as the budget allows. FANTINE finished second behind poly star Kleinzee who takes her place in the Algoa Cup and could show the strength of that form. She has drawn widest but is a strong frontrunner with Richard Fourie up. ASINANTANGA with Craig Zackey up came from far back to win his seasonal return over the track and trip showing his well being but will need to repeat from another wide draw. Zackey is now aboard BLACKBERRY BREEZE who having drawn well could take advantage and score on the turf. HOODWINKED, HALF MOON ISLAND and LOVE FROM AFAR can take it.

BEL CANTO DREAM ran on nicely in his last two starts on the Polytrack. He has good form on the turf as well and this looks the right opportunity for him to notch up another win. MADRA RUA got his confidence boosted, winning easily on local debut. He was well regarded earlier and could realise his true potential. A wide draw is a concern. QUINN'S TIME is back from a long break but is one to keep an eye on. He was the fastest finisher of his last start in KwaZulu-Natal. FORTUNE ONE hails from the Western Cape and could step up on his form now at this track with it's right-handed turn.
