Kenilworth Race 1 - Light & Wonder Commonwealth Plate
There was little between CHAMPAGNE CASTLE and Fyflield Legend on debut and of the raced look hardest to beat. CHAMPAGNE CASTLE (6) kept coming on debut after settling off the pace and finished third. Sure to be further improved by the extra ground and can get off the mark. She beaten the colt FYFIELD LEGEND (7) by about a length who tries to lead throughout on debut and stuck on well for fourth. Less pressure here and can give a sight. OMKHULU BOSS (4) is a two-year-old colt on debut from the stable of Glen Kotzen. By Malmoos from Risk Taker. Expect a bold run. GODRIC GRYFFINDOR (5) is on debut. By Time Thief and is out of the Vaughan Marshall stable. Top-three chance.
