Durbanville Race 2 - Lucky Fish Lucky Break Mdn Plate
LANDMAN (7) is a two-start maiden who placed on debut then could only manage fourth last start, beaten 2.5 lengths over 1250m at this track. Should settle just off the speed despite the nasty draw. Extra ground a plus and looks a strong chance this line-up. WATERFRONT (4) has been about the money at each run this prep, the latest offering a third over 1600m at Kenilworth. Backmarker who gets home hard. Will be tough to hold out. HAVOC (1) made progress last time out, finishing 2.25 lengths from the winner in second when he made late ground at the end of 1500m at this track. Nicely placed to play a pivotal role. GROOVE MASTER (5) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1500m at this track, beaten 6 lengths into fifth. Finds a nice race and can figure in the finish.
