Kenilworth Race 3 - Lucky Fish Wish Maker C Stakes
HELIOTROPE (6) finds it hard to win with two victories from 24 starts. Did a good job last start to finish third over 1800m at Durbanville, beaten 4 lengths. Fitter again and expected to go close. TWICE THE MASTER (5) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race and finished 2.5 lengths away in fourth last time out over 2500m at this track. Finds a suitable assignment and can find winning form. TOTHEMOONANDBACK (2) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at Durbanville, finishing fourth and only 2 lengths from the winner at the end of 2000m after being in contention on the bend. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a major role. ELEGANT NOBLE (1) was beaten 4.5 lengths into fifth at the second run back from a break over 2000m at this track at his latest appearance. Worth noting Luyolo Mxothwa goes aboard. Has his share of talent and is a top-three prospect.

Second-up. First-up after three months 3rd of 10 at Durbanville on February 11 over 1800m, 4 len behind Double Dash carrying 60.5kg at $11. Previously second-up 7th of 11 at Durbanville on October 16 2023 over 1600m, 10 len behind Fatal Gem with 58kg at $67. Long time since a win but found the line strongly fresh in this class and looks hard to hold out again.
