Durbanville Race 1 - Hollywoodbets Durbanville Welcomes You Open Maiden
KLEIN KAROO (8) has the ability and is overdue. Freshened and back in trip. Nice effort last time so worth following up. HILTON HEADS (7) is a two-start maiden who resumed from a spell last start and was beaten 5 lengths when fourth over 1250m at this track. Chance to break his maiden status with that run under his belt. RED WAVE (4) is ready to win after another minor placing last start, finishing third over 1250m at this track when he was always up in the leading division. Ideally placed and is sure to give this a mighty shake. ROYAL INFLUENCER (1) stepped out for his debut over 1000m at this track back on August 30 and finished fourth, beaten 10 lengths. Boxed on fairly at big odds at debut before another break. Look for a bold run.

Racing well recently. Most recently 3rd of 12 at this track on January 17 over 1250m, 5 len behind Behave Harris with 60kg at $5.50. Before that 2nd of 10 at Kenilworth on December 6 over 1200m, 3 len behind Loving Prague with 60kg at $5.50. Overdue for a win. Excellent winning chance with the help of an inside gate.

Back from a spell. Finished off last campaign second last of 13 at Kenilworth May 21 over 1800m, soft track; 17 len behind Beneath The Clouds with 50.0kg at $51. Previously first up; eighth of 11 at Kenilworth April 21 over 1400m, 9 len behind Hunga Tonga with 60kg at $101. Unlikely to trouble the top few.
