SAF - KENILWORTH   10 Jan 2026
 
GOING: G

DRAKENSTEIN STUD B STAKES 1200m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 29)    

Strong tempo likely with several going forward, headed by Pink Pigeon and Alltheboysiveloved. PINK PIGEON (10) is a consistent filly long overdue for a win. Leading rider goes aboard. Can go on with the job now. SHESGOTCLASS (1) placed at first two from a spell then led throughout to score last time in this class. Big chance to go back-to-back. WILD APPLAUSE (11) was narrowly beaten at only run last time in. Goes very well here and expecting a bold showing. JORDASH (5) wasn't far away in Grade 2 company at only run last time in. Could prove too smart for these fresh.
