Kenilworth Race 1 - Splashout Cape Of Good Hope Nursery (Grade 3)
IRELAND FOREVER (6) was an impressive winner on debut over 1000m on this course last start when well supported. He showed a good turn of foot and drew clear in the closing stages. It is encouraging that Grant van Niekerk is booked to ride and he can remain unbeaten. WINTER SNAP (1) won a good race on debut over 1000m on this course last start as the odds-on favourite. He would have come on from the run and should enjoy the rise to 1200m. Rates well as one of the leading contenders. WILD WILD GREEN (3) followed up her debut victory with a good win last time over 1100m at this track. She will love the extra 100m on offer and should give the males a run for their money. DIRECT HIT (2) won as the hot favourite on debut over 1000m at Fairviewl last start. She jumps from an inside draw and looks well placed to go back-to-back.

Looking to keep her unbeaten record intact. When well in the market on debut, won by 1.0 len at this track December 14 over 1000m defeating Whatastar carrying 60kg at $2.80. Last time out won by 1.3 len at this track January 25 over 1100m defeating Clair De Lune carrying 57.5kg at $5. Key chance likely to give a big sight.
