Durbanville Race 6 - #destinationcaperacing CAPE C STAKES
MAJOR APOLLO (7)finished third when on debut two starts back and then won at this trip and track last time out as the favourite,rates as the one to beat. WILLIAM WEST (3) performed well last start when finishing third at this track over 1000m and peaks for this. Looks a top challenger. WORDSWORTH (4) resumed from a spell last start over 1000m at this track and scored a strong win. Racing in a fitter state and can go back-to-back. BONANZA (5) finished among the placings last time out when finishing second at this track and should be further improved, each-way chance.
