SAF - DURBANVILLE   21 Sep 2024
 
GOING:

THE CRS BIG CAP CAPE D STAKES 1250m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 20)    

Fast pace assured with Tres Chic, Mr Frostie and Try Me leading the charge. LOVERS LANE (8) stayed on when third over this course and distance last time. It must be noted that the winner of that race has won again since. Richard Fourie is in the saddle and in this field, he can notch up his second-career victory. NILE THE BOSS (9) stayed on well when finishing second of 13 over 1400m at this track last time. Has each-way claims. TRES CHIC (1) has recently been thereabouts without winning, the latest effort a seventh over 1000m at this track. Likely to push forward and race up on the pace. On best form has place claims. SOLARTRIP (6) finished fourth last start over 1250m at this track, an improvement on his first-up 12th at Kenilworth the run before. Nicely placed to take this out.
