Kenilworth Race 1 - Charles Dickens Stakes
PARENTAL GUIDANCE (3) was an impressive winner on debut over this course and distance. He raced from just off the pace, quickened up well and drew clear of the opposition. He would have gained from the experience and can remain unbeaten. ORBIT (7) fought on well to the line when winning on debut over this course and distance last start. Racing in a fitter state is one of the leading contenders. CLAIR DE LUNE (1) was sent out as the hot favourite on debut last start and turned in a strong effort to finish second of seven over 1000m at this track. Jumping from the inside gate can atone. BLACK CHEETAH (5) won well on debut over 800m on this course last start when on debut. Despite hanging over the final 400m, he won plenty in hand. Richard Fourie retains the ride which is encouraging. He would have come on from the run and can't be ignored.
