SAF - DURBANVILLE   11 Feb 2026
 
GOING: G

RACE COAST INCENTIVES POWERED BY Hollywoodbets D STAKES 1800m

Track: GOOD   Clouds (Max: 25)    

Plenty of speed from Midway and Glenalmond. BEAUTIFUL SIDE (3) placed last two in open class over a bit further last two and prior to that placed this trip. Overdue and expected to go close. GOLD INDEX (6) is building towards a win. Leading rider goes aboard. This is well within his grasp. HELIOTROPE (5) is a course and distance winner resuming. Sure to be ready to run well. MIDWAY (4) led throughout to score this grade over a little further last time. Low draw and will take catching again.
