Kenilworth Race 8 - Hobday Equestrian Enterprises Class 4 (F & M)
KLEINZEE (7) made it two wins in succession last start when she scored by a long neck over 1600m at this track. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. LA DIVINA (3) was in the firing line on the corner and ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1600m at Durbanville after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Finds an easier assignment and can find winning form. UNA THE UNICORN (9) comes here off a win last time out, scoring by 1.5 lengths over 1200m at this track. Will appreciate the drop in the weights. Has been in solid form this campaign with a win and a placing from three starts. Strong claims on best figures. JOU LEKKER DING (8) last appeared when she finished fifth over 1250m at Durbanville on March 8. Looks a strong top-three prospect.

Useful type. Returns from a 52-day let-up. Last start 2nd of 11 at Durbanville on March 22 over 1600m, 1.3 len behind Fun Zone carrying 57.5kg at $11. The race before that second last of 9 at this track on February 11 over 1400m, 6 len behind Jou Lekker Ding carrying 57.5kg at $5. Well placed. Should prove hard to beat.

Going well. Returns from a 29-day let-up. Most recently favourite; won by 1.5 len at this track April 14 over 1200m defeating Electromagnetism with 60kg at $3.80. The run before that 2nd of 9 at Durbanville on March 22 over 1250m, neck behind Cliffscape with 60kg at $26. No reason she cannot build on that success.
