Breeding: Vercingetorix – Princess Royal by Captain Al
Trainer: Wengesai Masawi
Jockey: Gavin Lerena
Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 2 (11 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 5/2
He found one too good in his comeback run over 1200m last time. The son of Vercingetorix has improved since that outing and he is working well. He will enjoy the rise to 1400m, jumps from Barrier Two and has a winning chance.

Race 3 – 13:00
1400m – Bet With Tote Maiden Juvenile Plate
9 – Preux Chavalier
Breeding: Rafeef (AUS) – Francia by Dynasty
Trainer: Dean Kannemeyer
Jockey: Sean Veale
Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 9 (11 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 7/1
The son of Rafeef makes his debut over 1400m with Hollywood Racing-retained Jockey Sean Veale aboard. He is drawn awkwardly in Barrier Nine which is not ideal. He is doing nicely at home and moves well. The stable has given him plenty of work and if not too green, he will be right on top of them at the finish. This outing will bring him on nicely.
Winning Form Comment: Brother to:PAS DE NOM6g(31: 5, 5). *Rafeef colt.

Trainer: Mike and Mathew de Kock
Jockey: Keagan de Melo
Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 10 (11 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 14/1
He needed his debut effort over 1000m. The son of Trippi has come on from the outing and will enjoy the rise to 1400m. With a bit of luck from his wide barrier position, we can expect to see an improved performance.
Winning Form Comment: Brother to:WALLIS SIMPSON10m(20: 5, 7),CAN’T SAY NO4f(23: 3, 9),HOODWINKED5g(10: 2, 5). Needed debut. Expect better.

1 – Trombolines
Breeding: Querari (GER) – Spring In Seattle by Mambo In Seattle (USA)
Trainer: Mike and Mathew de Kock
Jockey: Gavin Lerena
Wgt: 55.5kg
Draw: 1 (8 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 10/1
He finished second over this distance at Turffontein last time. The son of Querari is having his peak run and he is in very good order heading into this contest. Hollywood Racing-retained Jockey Gavin Lerena rides from pole position, and he is a big runner.
Winning Form Comment: 3rd run after rest. Gelded 2026.02.10. Best MR:88. Beaten narrowly in latest. Has peak run and should be cherry-ripe.

2 – Next Of Kin
Breeding: Canford Cliffs (IRE) – My Friend Lee by Pathfork (USA)
Trainer: Mike and Mathew de Kock
Jockey: #Mickaelle Michel -1.5kg
Wgt: 52.5kg
Draw: 2 (8 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 2/1
He returns from a short nine-week break and the stable has freshened him up. The son of Canford Cliffs is not at peak fitness but he should run a competitive race with just 51kgs on his back. This outing will bring him on nicely for future races.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:85. Was knocking on the door before excusable last run. Don’t ignore.

Trainer: Stuart Ferrie
Jockey: Sean Veale
Wgt: 58.5kg
Draw: 7 (8 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 25/1
He has been disappointing in recent form. The stable has opted to step him up to 1400m as he has been outpaced over shorter. Hollywood Racing-retained Jockey Sean Veale retains the ride, and we are hoping to see improvement.
Winning Form Comment: Gelded 2025.12.23. Best MR:98. Has disappointed in recent runs. Could improve.
