Kenilworth Race 6 - Cape Classic (Grade 3) (3 Year-Olds)
AQUAE CALIDAE (7) Fresh after a break. Got the prize when winning by 2L last start at Durbanville and putting a tidy record together. Expected to settle towards the tail. Has genuine claims in this race. REEF RUNNER (1) First run back from a spell. Was competitive when 2nd last run around here and has drawn the rails. Should go close. RED SPICE (3) Back from a break. Amongst the placegetters when 3rd last run at Greyville. K De Melo is a suitable booking. Prefers to settle towards the tail. Capable of getting into the money. BIG CITY ROLLER (5) Missed by a narrow margin last start at Durbanville and good career start. Has run into the money 4 from 4 attempts this preparation. Deserves consideration.

Resumes from a break. Looked good when 2nd last run around here and will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Should go very close.

First run back from a break. Jumped at $7.50 and ran 4th last time at Greyville. Likely to be well placed early. Win will not surprise.

Narrowly denied victory last start at Durbanville and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Been in the placegetters each start this campaign but up against a more competitive field. Good value.

First up after 18 weeks and winner by 1L first up last preparation around here. Might have to make up considerable ground. A threat to the other main hopes.

Resuming after a break. Strong performance to win by 2L last start at Durbanville and showing consistent performance in races. Likely to settle back in the field. Must respect.
