Kenilworth Race 9 - Hollywoodbets Bright Future Maiden Plate
ZAGREB (7) finished second last start when fresh from a spell over 1200m at this track to make it two minor placings from four runs. Placed 2/3 here. Close up only try at trip. Fitter and looks a strong winning chance. CAESAR'S RANSOM (2) is back after a break of three-and-a-half months. At the last run before the layoff he finished fourth over 1600m at this track. Hard to beat if back in good order as anticipated. SUPER VIKING (4) is back after a break of 11 weeks. Went close to a maiden win before the layoff, finishing third at his latest appearance over 1400m at this track. One of the leading chances. MUTINY IN HEAVEN (1) is a two-start maiden who resumed from a spell last start and was beaten 5 lengths when sixth over 1200m at this track. Bold showing expected with added fitness this time.
