Durbanville Race 6 - Taking The Reins Class 3
THE ABDICATOR (4) produced good consistent form lines before having a spell. He has won four times, finished second once, and third once from eight starts over this distance. Richard Fourie rides on his return and if fit, he should be the one to beat. CAPTAIN ARROW (2) returns from a decent spell which would have done him the world of good. He has a good record here over the trip and any positive market moves should be followed. MOJO MAN (6) fought on bravely when third over this distance at Kenilworth last time out. All three of his career victories have come over this trip and he merits healthy respect. PORQUE TE VAS (5) is better than her last start as the jockey reported something to be amiss in running. She finished 1.5 lengths behind the top pick in her penultimate run and is 1.5kg better off at the weights today. Each way value.
