Race Summary: JORDASH ran a fair race on debut behind the very talented Winter Snap, she was very green in running and stayed on well to finish just under three lengths behind the winner, she will love the step up in trip to 1200m, if she has made the necessary improvement back at home, she will be hard to beat. WHATASTAR has done everything right in her first two starts at the races, she is a lovely filly that tries really hard, there is no doubt she will be involved in the finish. TAKE IT AS RED will enjoy the step up in trip to 1200m, her first two runs have been good, watch her late, she will be running on strongly. PARALEGAL was only beaten just over two lengths on debut, she ran against winners in that race and caught the eye late, watch for big improvement from this well-bred filly.
Selections: #1 JORDASH, #2 WHATASTAR, #9 TAKE IT AS RED, #5 PARALEGAL
HOLLYWOODBETS KENILWORTH, 11.02.2025, Race 2, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R140,000, 12:55GMT+2
Race Summary: MISS WORLD has been in cracking form of late, she was heavily backed in the market last time when running second to Mai Sensation, the blinkers come off, on her best form, she will go very close to winning this tricky race. BABELICIOUS quickened up smartly with the blinkers on to win a lovely race on the 28th of December, this will be a step up in class for her on Tuesday afternoon, but she is progressive and must be respected. TRIP TO MAPUTO had absolutely no luck in running on the 18th of December, she had traffic problems throughout the race and then stayed on strongly to make up good ground late, watch her closely, she will be flying at the finish. ARTISTE is much better than her recent start, she is very talented on her day, include her into all bets.
Selections: #4 MISS WORLD, #5 BABELICIOUS, #2 TRIP TO MAPUTO, #3 ARTISTE
HOLLYWOODBETS KENILWORTH, 11.02.2025, Race 3, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R110,000, 13:30GMT+2
Race Summary: ANOTHER DREAM was heavily supported in the market on the 18th of January when showing plenty speed early and then getting tired late behind shock winner Princessontherun, she needed that run quite badly and should improve significantly, include her into all bet types. RAHHABBA has been in great form of late, she drops in trip for this Maiden Plate on Tuesday afternoon, she will be stalking the speed early and should be working into the race late, she must have a good each way chance here. HOERIKWAGGO never got into the race when it mattered most last time, she was very disappointing, if she can bring her first run to the races and build on that performance, she will be hard to beat. PLAYFUL JOULES ran a good race on the 18th of January behind Shesgotclass, on her best form she can sneak into the Quartet.
Selections: #5 ANOTHER DREAM, #7 RAHHABBA, #13 HOERIKWAGGO, #9 PLAYFUL JOULES
HOLLYWOODBETS KENILWORTH, 11.02.2025, Race 4, Gallops, 1000m, Turf, R125,000, 14:05GMT+2
Race Summary: MEG’S LEGACY comes back to the races from a small break of 62 days, her first run was super impressive behind Love Story and then she backed that up with a fair run behind Casa Estiva, she is well related this filly, she will be switched off early and then run on strongly late, watch her closely at a decent price. FLYING FINLEY never runs a bad race, his form is solid and super consistent, Jockey Richard Fourie sticks with him, he will be right there again on his best form. POETIC PRINCESS has been well tried in the maiden ranks, she was fairly beaten in her last start behind Shesgotclass, with some luck in running, she could earn some money for the connections. HERITAGE RIDGE was well beaten in her last start, she is much better than that performance, include her into the play.
Selections: #11 MEG’S LEGACY, #5 FLYING FINLEY, #6 POETIC PRINCESS, #4 HERITAGE RIDGE
HOLLYWOODBETS KENILWORTH, 11.02.2025, Race 5, Gallops, 1600m, Turf, R100,000, 14:40GMT+2
Race Summary: LANDOFTHERISINGSUN gets the perfect opportunity to exit the maiden ranks, despite him carrying top weight in this Open Maiden, he brings in solid form and will be very hard to beat. CRESCENT showed good improvement last time when running second behind My Archangel, he is still improving and should enjoy the step up in trip to 1600m, include him into all bets. REAL STUNNER ran a much better race over 1600m in his last start behind Red Dawn, the form lines of that race have worked out well, from a good draw he will get the run of the race, watch him closely at a decent price. ARIOVISTUS has changed stables and been gelded, he is a lovely looking individual that just needs time to mature, he could sneak into the places if he doesn’t need the run.
Selections: #8 LANDOFTHERISINGSUN, #9 CRESCENT, #4 REAL STUNNER, #5 ARIOVISTUS
HOLLYWOODBETS KENILWORTH, 11.02.2025, Race 6, Gallops, 1600m, Turf, R140,000, 15:15GMT+2
Race Summary: PLEASE BE TRUE was desperately unlucky in his last start behind Legal Counsel, he was continuously baulked in running from the moment they turned for home, this is a smaller field, and he will love the step up in trip to 1600m, if the race works out for him, he will be extremely tough to beat. KING’S QUEST ran a terrific race out of the maidens in his last start on the 25th of January, he looks very progressive and must be respected in a big way here. TOUCHDOWN is much better than his last start when running just over four lengths behind the winner, he should enjoy the drop in trip, on his best form, he would have a good money chance. BOOGIEFIED has been rested for a long time, if he doesn’t need the run badly, he could sneak into the places at a decent price.
Selections: #7 PLEASE BE TRUE, #6 KING’S QUEST, #3 TOUCHDOWN, #1 BOOGIEFIED
HOLLYWOODBETS KENILWORTH, 11.02.2025, Race 7, Gallops, 2200m, Turf, R125,000, 15:50GMT+2
Race Summary: BOMBERS IN THE SKY quickened up really well to win a good race on the 18th of January, he is a lovely looking gelding that will get better and stronger with every race, this will be his first run out of the maidens and he steps up in trip, off this rating, he will have a good winning chance again. HELIOTROPE stayed on strongly from a long way back in her last start behind Aladdin’s Lamp, she stays well and she will keep grinding all the way to the line, watch her closely at a decent price. PRIME VENTURE has been in good form of late, he needs a particular ride, if the race works out for him, he should be competitive. FLY FUTURA has run two good races in succession, if he stays the 2200m trip, he would naturally have a good place chance.
Selections: #4 BOMBERS IN THE SKY, #9 HELIOTROPE, #5 PRIME VENTURE, #8 FLY FUTURA
HOLLYWOODBETS KENILWORTH, 11.02.2025, Race 8, Gallops, 1400m, Turf, R125,000, 16:30GMT+2
Race Summary: LA DIVINA is much better than her recent run behind Alltheboysiveloved, she unfortunately had one or two hard luck stories in the race, she can be a strong front runner on her day, if she manages to go off and lead the field, she will be hard to peg back late, include her into all bets. SOHOT SOWHAT looks to be a smart filly in the making, her last two wins have been nothing short of impressive, the yard think highly of this filly, the step up in trip should be no problem at all for this individual, she will be the horse they all need to beat. JOU LEKKER DING never runs a bad race, there should be no excuses for her from a good draw, she must have a good place chance again. FROM A DISTANCE will need to improve quite a bit to win a race like this, but on her best form, she could easily sneak into the places and make the exotics pay.
Selections: #6 LA DIVINA, #5 SOHOT SOWHAT, #3 JOU LEKKER DING, #7 FROM A DISTANCE
Best Win: #7 PLEASE BE TRUE
Best Value Bet: #1 JORDASH
Best Longshot: #4 BOMBERS IN THE SKY
