Fourie set for double at Fairview

There look to be two really decent bankers on today's Fairview card, and yes, they are both to be ridden by Richard Fourie.

Punters could do a lot worse than following Fourie these days and his liaison with trainer Alan Greeff has certainly reaped its rewards. In fact, of his 192 winners so far this season, 61 have come at Fairview and the vast majority have been for Greeff.

Today Fourie again has some good rides on the turf track with the best of them probably being Global Ally in Race 5, a MR 96 Handicap over 1400m, and Luna Halo in Race 7, the Listed Breeders Guineas over 1600m.

Fourie has an impressive record on both these animals as he won three times and been runner-up in his four other rides on Global Ally, and an even more impressive six from seven and a runner-up position aboard Luna Halo. To add insult to injury the only time he has lost aboard Luna Halo was when there was a slipped saddle.

Racing is at Hollywoodbets Kenilworth on Sunday and jockey Mpumelelo Mjoka has picked up a plum ride in Race 5, a Cape B Stakes over 1800m, for Harold Crawford and Michelle Rix, aboard progressive filly Time For Love. She only began her career as a four-year-old at the start of this season but has quickly gone about making up for lost time.

This daughter of Time Thief has built on her early promise since with back-to-back victories over 1600m and over 1800m.

He received a six-point penalty for her last-start success but that could prove lenient as Mjoka's ride won at a higher level last time and remains relatively unexposed. Although she takes on the colts for the first time, she carries just 53kg and looks good value to complete her hat-trick.
