SAF - DURBANVILLE   26 Sep 2026
 
GOING:

KIKKULI STANDING AT PAARDEBERG STUD B STAKES 1250m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 19)    

Un Bel Di and Absolutely Yes can be prominent. KATTEKWAADKWADRAAD (1) returns after a spell of seven months. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1250m at this track. Has plenty of upside and should be right in the finish. ABSOLUTELY YES (3) turned in a sound effort last time but found one better at this track over 1250m, beaten 1.3 lengths. That run should have him rock-hard fit now. Yet to break through this time in but hasn't been far away, with two placings to his name. Should prove tough to beat. LYRICAL GANGSTER (7) got home by just half a length at his latest appearance over 1200m at Kenilworth. Drops significantly in the weights so he is one of the contenders again. ONE LINER (5) finished third last start over 1250m at this track, beaten 1.4 lengths. Will benefit from that outing. Capable of another bold effort.
