Kenilworth Race 6 - Gallop Tv Fm 72 Apprentice Hcp (F & M)
CHINWAG (7) Resuming from a spell. Got the prize when winning by 1L last run at Durbanville and showing improvement in recent outings. Suitably placed in this race. GOLDEN SHIMMER (1) Disappointing effort when 6th last start at Durbanville but has a nice advantage with a good barrier. Up in weight. Chance to break through and a could give a show. OH ISABELLA (4) Won narrowly last start at Durbanville. Can take this out. MISS ATTITUDE (5) Lacked competitiveness when 4th last start at Durbanville but have to respect the form at the distance. Will have to carry more weight. Looks set to run a place.

Finished last at Durbanville first-up in a FM BM82, beaten six and a half lengths after firming from opening levels, so there is a clear performance gap to close. Her prior run was a narrow win at this track and distance in FM MPLTE company, beating Chinwag by a nose, and the class drop plus 4kg claim are positives. From barrier one she can use her natural speed, but a rebound is required to threaten the main chances.

Returns from a four-month break after ending her last campaign with two plain efforts, the latest when second last in a FM BM80 at Durbanville and beaten just over eight lengths after being unwanted in the market. Her track record is sound enough, with one win and three places from eleven starts at this venue, but she has not won at around 1600m from seven attempts. Capable of improving fresh, though others bring stronger recent form.

Improved strongly at Durbanville last start when second in Open company, beaten just over two lengths by Fog In Finland after sitting near the top of an open market. Two back she was only beaten two and a half lengths in a FM BM82 over 1400m, so the recent form is competitive. She has won twice at around 1600m and gets a 2.5kg claim, which gives her a reliable place profile.

Returns from a two-month let-up after winning first-up at Durbanville, scoring by a head over Final Say in FM MPLTE grade despite easing as favourite. That followed a fourth at this track over 1400m on soft ground, where she was beaten just over three lengths in MPLTE company. She gets weight relief now, is one from one at the distance, and profiles as a progressive winning chance with upside.

Was fourth in a small-field FM BM82 at Durbanville last start, beaten five lengths behind Verse For Suzanne after firming from opening levels. Her previous second to Boozy Susie was sound enough, though she was still beaten four lengths. The key positive is her 1600m record, with two wins and a placing from five starts around the trip, but carrying 60kg keeps her more in the place bracket.

Returns from a two-month freshening after running second in Open company at Greyville Aw over 2000m, beaten five and a half lengths by Captive Prince at long odds. Her previous eighth was only moderate, but she now comes back to the 1600m range where she has already won, and the class drop reads well for this assignment. With a 2.5kg claim and solid 12-month form, she sets the standard in this field.

Resumes after three months off following a Durbanville win, where she beat Spurious by a length as a firming odds-on favourite in FM MPLTE grade. The start prior she was beaten only a nose by Golden Shimmer at this track, again as an odds-on favourite, so her consistency is obvious. She has one win and two placings from three tries around 1600m, making her a genuine chance fresh despite the 60kg.
