SAF - KENILWORTH   24 Apr 2024
 
GOING: G

PERFECTLY PLACED MIDDLE STAKES 1100m

Track: GOOD   Clouds (Max: 21)    

The pace looks strong from the outset. MISS MARGUERITE (7) finished a solid fourth last time out and she has 1.5kgs less to carry this time. It is encouraging that Aldo Domeyer keeps faith in the ride and she can return to winning ways, especially if the track is rain-affected. KINKY BOOTS (9) produced a good effort for third-place in her last start over 1200m. She should have no issues with the drop to 1100m and will be peaking third up. Each way value. DISTINCTION (1) was close up in fifth place behind the second pick last time. The pair meet on the same weight terms today and there should not be much separating them at the finish. Include in all multiples. PORQUE TE VAS (2) finished fourth in the same race as the third pick when that horse won its most recent race. She was a good winner before that and another honest effort is expected.
