Hollywoodbets Durbanville

Race 3 – 13:10
1250m – Join The Legends www.capeturfclub.co.za Open Maiden (F & M)

10 – Jou Lekker Ding
Breeding: Oratorio (IRE) – Miss Ipanema (AUS) by General Nediym (AUS)
Trainer: Vaughan Marshall
Jockey: Grant van Niekerk
Wgt: 58.5kg
Draw: 10 (14 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 25/1

She needed her last start over this course and distance. The stable hasn’t been able to do much work due to all the rain in Cape Town. She is expected to need this outing from her wide draw and will be running on.

Winning Form Comment: 2nd run after rest. Is held by number 7 on latest run. Has scope and can improve.

Race 4 – 13:45
1600m – Celebrating Centurion Member Ken Truter’s Birthday Maiden Plate

8 – World Soprano
Breeding: One World – Dynamic Diana by Dynasty
Trainer: Vaughan Marshall
Jockey: Oswald Noach
Wgt: 57.0kg
Draw: 8 (13 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 25/1

He has shown good improvement since his debut effort over 1250m. The son of One World will love the rise to 1600m. His work schedule has also been interrupted due to all the rain in Cape Town and he is likely to need this outing.

Winning Form Comment: Is held by number 7 on first run. Can show improvement.

Race 4 – 13:45
1600m – Celebrating Centurion Member Ken Truter’s Birthday Maiden Plate

12 – Champonelle
Breeding: Querari (GER) – Varsity Belle by Var (USA)
Trainer: Lucinda Woodruff
Jockey: Grant van Niekerk
Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 12 (13 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 5/1

In his work, it appears that he shouldn’t have any issues with regards to fitness. The obvious concern is his wide draw of 12 and we are hoping that he can get luck in running with Grant van Niekerk aboard. If everything goes according to plan, he is capable of running into the placings.

Winning Form Comment: Rested 12 wks. Best MR:82. Not disgraced in latest and the form line has been franked. Watch.

Race 8 – 16:08
1250m – Hangover Syndicate Class 4 (F & M)

2 – Great Cat
Breeding: Dynasty – Tiger’s Touch (AUS) by Where’s That Tiger (USA)
Trainer: Brett Crawford
Jockey: Luyolo Mxothwa
Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 2 (10 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 5/1

She won a good race over 1200m at Hollywoodbets Kenilworth last time. She is doing very well and is in good form at home. Sporting Post-sponsored Jockey Luyolo Mxothwa retains the ride and she is expected to be competitive.

Winning Form Comment: Rested 16 wks. Best MR:75. Won a good race last time. Chance if fit.
