SAF - DURBANVILLE   18 Mar 2026
 
GOING:

ONE WORLD RACING SYNDICATE APPRENTICE CLASS 5 1250m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 27)    

Only a small field with Bonne Bouche likely to find a comfortable lead. TRUE HORIZON (1) is worth following up. Yet to win here in 12 tries but runner-up in open class latest and will go close if runs to that this easier grade. RAFFISH TREND (4) is in form and goes well course and distance. Well placed to take this out. GIMME THE POWER (6) has placed three of last four. In the finish last time and has placed 2/3 course and distance. Major player with the light weight. LOVE SHACK (5) wasn’t too far off the mark last time. In the mix again.
