Greyville Tips on January 1st - Best Bets and Predictions

PRINCESS JO produced a promising debut effort over 1200m on this course. She lost two lengths leaving the starting stalls, but the manner in which she stayed on at the finish was encouraging. It must be noted that the form of that race has been franked. The daughter of Global View would have gained from the experience and will love the extra furlong on offer. With the natural improvement that is expected, she should be the horse to beat.

AERIAL DISPLAY ran on well when second over 1400m last time. The son of Pathfork is a progressive type and will love the step up to the mile. He jumps from a good draw of two and in this type of field, should take a power of beating.

BEND THE RULES has good consistent form lines to his credit. He was not disgraced when third in a Graduation Plate over this C&D last time. The son of Noble Tune returns to Handicap Company and from his good draw of two, he may be rewarded for consistency.

CAPTAIN CASEY won a good race in his last start over this C&D. He should have won easier as he was green in running and shifted away from the crop in the closing stages. The son of Captain Of All takes on older rivals, but he looks to be above average. He is the best weighted runner in this contest and is the horse to beat.

CANADIAN SUMMER produced a good comeback run in the Listed Model Man Mile. It must be noted that the form of that race has been franked. The daughter of Oratorio would have come on from the run and she should strip much fitter. She is the best weighted runner in this contest and can notch up her fourth career victory.
