Durbanville Race 2 - Join The Race Coast Turf Club Mdn Plate
BART NEL (3) faced the starter for the first time last start and made steady late ground in finishing seventh at Kenilworth over 1250m, beaten 4.5 lengths. Progressive type who can play a role. GUNNER GALACTICO (5) finished third, beaten 7 lengths, over 1200m at Kenilworth on debut 11 weeks ago and has been kept under wraps since. Likely improver and is a leading contender. SARATOGA SUNRISE (10) is still a maiden after three runs. Was in the market last time out but didn't live up to market expectations, finishing fifth over 1250m at Kenilworth. Solid top-three chance on his best figures. ROYAL CLINTON (7) has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing third last time over 1250m at Kenilworth. Hard to leave out.

At debut, 7th of 11 at Kenilworth on August 12 over 1250m, 4.5 len behind Ulez Camera carrying 58kg at $15. Likely to take a lot from that run and is worth following up.
