Kenilworth Race 2

Cape Turf Club Syndicates Cape B Stakes

Prize Money: $11,470

SONG TO THE MOON (7) is a winner of his last two starts. He raced from a handy position last time and kept rolling to keep all challengers at bay. It must be noted that the horse that finished second that day has come out and won since. He meets a similar line-up this afternoon and can bring up the hat-trick. GIMME MORE TIME (5) finished fifth behind the top choice last time. He is 3kgs better off at the weights today and should finish closer as a result. CHOLLIMA (2) should have finished closer last time as he was held up for a run at the 400m mark. With a bit of luck in running, he can finish in the placings. GREEN MANDARIN (3) finished third behind the third selection last time. The pair meet on the same weight terms today and he may have to settle for the same result. Include in all combinations.

Comes here off a 42-day let-up. Last start 5th of 8 at this track on November 16 over 1800m, 5 len behind Song To The Moon carrying 60kg at $15. The start before that 4th in a small field at Durbanville on October 12 over 2000m, 2.5 len behind King Pelles with 60kg at $8.50. Can do a lot better than that last run.

Chasing a hat-trick. Comes off a 42 day let-up. Most recently favourite; won by a long-neck at this track November 16 over 1800m defeating Magic Verse with 55.5kg at $2.10. The start before that favourite; won by a neck at Durbanville October 19 over 1600m defeating Hoodia carrying 59kg at $2.80. Ideally placed to play a significant role.
