Durbanville Race 1 - Hollywoodbets Durbanville Welcomes You Maiden Juvenile Plate
CAPTAIN'S ANGEL (2) made debut in far richer company and ran on from the tail to finish midfield. This much easier and has upside. Go close. LE CONCIERGE (1) resumes today after failing to impress on debut running 6 lengths behind Catwalk King at Kenilworth over 1000m. Rates a strong winning chance. HERO'S JOURNEY (5) has been freshened up since he finished seventh over 1000m at Kenilworth six-and-a-half weeks ago. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Capable of testing this field. FROM THE ISLAND (6) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1200m at Kenilworth, beaten 4.5 lengths into fifth. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways.

Was as a despised roughie at debut, 11th of 13 at Kenilworth on February 22 over 1200m, 15 len behind Lady Jean carrying 60kg at $51. Might need more time based on that poor debut.
