Blinkered Roman Agent to make his mark

PUNTERS face a hugely competitive en-race card at Hollywoodbets Scottsville today a card littered with maidens and some classy handicaps.

Blinkered Roman Agent to make his mark

The meeting was rescheduled from Sunday and hopefully the weather plays ball.

The first two juvenile races on the card have many unraced horses in the line-up so it will be well to tread carefully but there may be opportunity later in the after-noon.

A better bet on the card could be the grey Roman Agent.

Naidoo

He has not quite lived up to the perform-ances of some of his illustrious siblings but makes his debut for Kom Naidoo in the eighth with first time blinkers. He comes off some fairly useful Cape Town form in feature company and he could prove too good in this line-up if it match fit.

Biggest threat could come from the Frikkie Greyling-trained Go Grayson Go. He is smart but all of his recent form has been over a mile. He has been a beaten favourite at his last two but the drop in trip could suit in this company. Of the balance Stanley Park and Agrado make most appeal.

Dean Kannemeyer is back in town after his time in Cape Town for their Summer Season where he landed some healthy fea-ture race wins.
