SAF - DURBANVILLE   21 Mar 2026
 
GOING:

RACE COAST INCENTIVES POWERED BY Hollywoodbets CLASS 5 1250m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 24)    

Plenty of pace with Jet A One and Firingonallengines up front, pressured by Winter Pearl and Wave Of Glory. GRAVITY (8) placed only try course and distance. Has been racing in open class all recent runs and going well. Expected to go close this grade. PRINCE OF TIBET (4) was eased out of the race fresh and must have had an issue. Placed in open class the start prior. Excellent winning chance on best form. SHIFTING PATH (6) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 5 lengths when fourth over 1200m at Kenilworth three-and-a-half weeks ago. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. OZARK (1) was safely held when resuming last start over 1200m at Kenilworth, finishing eighth and beaten 6 lengths. In the mix.
