UNTERS face a competitive card at 'Hollywoodbets Scottsville today but they can hopefully fill their wallets for a tilt at the big races on the World Pool Gold Cup card this Sunday.

Tulip Fields is ready to blossom

There is a racing adage that warns that you can go bankrupt backing two-year-olds so punters should tread cautiously in the card opener with many first timers in the field.

However, of those that have run, Tulip Fields caught the eye on debut for Dean Kannemeyer when running on stoutly on the poly. She is down in trip but should run well and hopefully save a few Bi-pot tickets. Belligerent improved nicely second time out and should be primed for this while Love The USA has not been far back in two starts and gets a 4kg claimer aboard.

Cowboy Country

There are also first timers in the opening leg of the PA where debutantes Cowboy Country and Exocet both got favourable comments from their trainer’s and could be worth following. Of those that have run, Mfethu made a smart debut on this course and Gavin Lerena picks up the ride from a suspended Sean Veale. Boardwalk Breeze has been knocking at the door and must have a strong chance on his best effort.
