South Africa Horse Racing Previews: KENILWORTH@2023.06.24
Kenilworth, 24.06.2023, Race 1, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R200.000, 11:45GMT+2
Race Summary: Competitive opener. On their recent meeting SPEED RACER finished ahead of TYRION LANNISTER, TWENTYTWENTYVISION and RIGHT ROYAL MO but it could get a lot closer all round. However, DIAMOND ROCK could hold SPEED RACER on an earlier meeting and rates the one to beat. NOON DAY GUN will enjoy the little extra and could prove the main danger. Watch SACAMBAYA who races before this, and the newcomers.
Selections:
#4 Diamond Rock, #10 Noon Day Gun, #11 Speed Racer, #5 Right Royal Mo
Kenilworth, 24.06.2023, Race 2, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R80.000, 12:20GMT+2
Race Summary: REMEMBER MY NAME rates the one they all have to beat. Stable companion STEADFAST wasn’t disgraced on debut and could challenge. RUN FOR ME is capable but comes off a rest and could still need it. Include the first-timers that attract money in exotics.
Selections:
#8 Remember My Name, #12 Steadfast, #9 Run For Me, #7 Call To Unite
Kenilworth, 24.06.2023, Race 3, Gallops, 1400m, Turf, R125.000, 12:55GMT+2
Race Summary: FUTURE TURN beat BARDOLINO by a length but the 1.5kg difference could get them close together. CHARLIE CROKER and FUTURE TURN have collateral form with Gimme More Time and the former should make his presence felt. INTIMIDATOR is holding form and could make the Quartet. STEINBECK and PROMETTERE could get into the reckoning.
Selections:
#4 Charlie Croker, #3 Future Turn, #5 Bardolino, #1 Intimidator
Kenilworth, 24.06.2023, Race 4, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R200.000, 13:30GMT+2
Race Summary: MR COBBS and MUFASA met recently and the latter was victorious by a neck. The meet at the same weights but the 100m further could see the result reversed. However, BEREAVE showed that he is the one to beat on collateral form, having finished over 2 lengths in front of MR COBBS recently. SPEED MACHINE must come into the equation on the same form line. Stablemates, SILVER FALCON and SACHDEV as well as RESONATE are also not out of it. Good race.
Selections:
#4 Bereave, #8 Mr Cobbs, #2 Mufasa, #1 Speed Machine
Kenilworth, 24.06.2023, Race 5, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R200.000, 14:05GMT+2
Race Summary: In this Listed race precocious filly BALTIC SECRET, who is improving with racing, could upstage her male rivals. Stable companion UNDERWORLD is on the up and capable of joining that fight for victory. ZOOMIE won last time and with DUMBLEDORE could make the Trifecta. LINES CROSSED is looking for minor money.
Selections:
#3 Baltic Secret, #6 Underworld, #5 Zoomie, #2 Dumbledore
Kenilworth, 24.06.2023, Race 6, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R200.000, 14:40GMT+2
Race Summary: SUMMER LILY was impressive when winning on debut over this course and distance so gets the nod with improvement expected. OCTOBER MORN and SIDDELEY have the form and experience to mount a serious challenge. Last-start winners UNCONQUERABLE LADY and ONI SAN could get into the picture too, with further progress likely. ENCHANTED SKY, QUICK TRIP and LISTENTOTHEOCEAN also have earning potential.
Selections:
#1 Summer Lily, #2 October Morn, #3 Siddeley, #4 Unconquerable Lady
Kenilworth, 24.06.2023, Race 7, Gallops, 1800m, Turf, R200.000, 15:15GMT+2
Race Summary: A competitive Listed WSB Stormsvlei Stakes and punters need to include as many as possible in exotics. GOLD POKER GAME was unlucky last time and is one for the shortlist. Lightly raced FUTURE GIRL will have the run of the race from pole draw. LOVE IS A ROSE has a wide draw to overcome but has beaten VERONICA MARS who needs to jump on terms. FLOWER OF SAIGON, LADY SILVANO, WHO DO YOU LOVE, FLEETING and SUPREME DREAM could pull it off.
Selections:
#7 Gold Poker Game, #1 Future Girl, #14 Love Is A Rose, #5 Veronica Mars
Kenilworth, 24.06.2023, Race 8, Gallops, 1950m, Turf, R300.000, 15:50GMT+2
Race Summary: A competitive WSB Pocket Power Stakes (Grade 3) over 1950m. ITSRAININGWILLIAM beat MASTER REDOUTE (1kg better) by 0.5L and they should get close again. The former’s stablemates, SILVER HOST, TOP QUALITY and THEFUTUREISBRIGHT, are all in with winning claims. THE FUTURIST was never travelling last time – expect a better performance. Stable companion SOLAR POWER should be involved in the finish.
Selections:
#6 Solar Power, #5 Top Quality, #10 Itsrainingwilliam, #1 Master Redoute
Kenilworth, 24.06.2023, Race 9, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R110.000, 16:25GMT+2
Race Summary: Two year-old FLYING V has plenty of scope for improvement and could follow up on her maiden win. MAGNETIC DIME beat ENEMY TERRITORY (races before this) by 0.50 lengths recently, but the latter is only 0.5kg better off. It could get close between them again. WHERE’S THE PARTY (races before this), HEAR MY VOICE and FLYING FIRST shouldn’t be far behind them. APPLE CATCHER finds support and produced her form last time. She can go on.
Selections:
#9 Flying V, #14 Apple Catcher, #11 Enemy Territory, #5 Where’s The Party
Kenilworth, 24.06.2023, Race 10, Gallops, 1100m, Turf, R125.000, 17:00GMT+2
