SAF - DURBANVILLE   07 Sep 2024
 
GOING: G

Hollywoodbets BRIGHT FUTURE CAPE A STAKES 1250m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 14)   Rail out 2m on back straight, with a 4m spur at approximately the 550m mark  

The pace should be on from the outset with Silver Falcon, Port Louis and We're Jamming pushing on from their low draws. QUESTIONING (7) resumes from a spell after having finished second of 11 over 1200m at Kenilworth last start. He is unbeaten from two starts on this course and having won fresh-up previously should go close to adding to that tally. SILVER FALCON (1) has shown signs of a form return in his last two starts. He has won three times and finished third once from five starts over this course and distance. Richard Fourie steps into the saddle and he may be able to get the best out of him. WE'RE JAMMING (3) produced a strong finish when winning his last start over 1100m at Kenilworth. It must be noted that the horse that finished third that day has come out and won since. He is in a good space and jumping from an inside gate can go back-to-back. WECANGOALLNIGHT (6) produced some decent form lines last prep before going out for a spell. He has won twice, finished second once and third once from six starts on this course. He has won fresh-up previously and is well worth a second look.
