Kenilworth Race 5 - Vhm Racing Syndicate Open Maiden
PAST AND PRESENT (10) has finished second in his last three starts. He stayed on well over 2400m at Durbanville last time. He meets the right field and may find himself in the winner's enclosure. TUNGUSKA (9) was running on well when third over 1600m at Durbanville last time. He will enjoy the extra 100m on offer and can go close. SHOW OFF (12) stayed on well when third over 1500m last time. It must be noted that the horse that finished second that day has come out and won since. He is a horse with scope and with luck in the running can place. DRICUS (4) showed good improvement in his last start over 1400m on this course. He will love the rise to 1700m and has each-way claims.
