SAF - KENILWORTH   24 Dec 2025
 
GOING:

LUCKY FISH DIAMOND RICHES C STAKES 1000m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 23)    

A solid tempo on the cards with Peace Of Mind leading the way. CATCH A PENNY (6) finished hard to beat a big field here last time. Has never missed a place here in six tries. Ideally placed to make it two on the trot. PLAYING TRIX (7) is a lightly raced type who won her maiden with ease last time here and has upside. Speedy filly who will take catching again. ALL ABOUT AL (8) is rarely far away but finds it hard to win. Has a win and seven minors from 13 at the trip and placed 4/7 course and distance. Have to include. RATTLESNAKE (2) has a big weight and back in trip but going well and will be winding up late. Definite winning chance.
