The new week starts off on today’s Family Day public holiday with a ten-race programme at Hollywoodbets Kenilworth.
The main event of the day is the Gr3 Champagne Stakes run over 1200m.
Umfula (Richard Fourie) could bring up the hat-trick today (Pic – Chase Liebenberg)
Brett and James Crawford send out Umfula in Race 7.
He followed up his maiden win with an equally impressive victory over this course and distance.
He showed a good turn of foot and drew clear in the run down to the line.
The son of Canford Cliffs meets a similar line-up this afternoon and he can bring up the hat-trick with Richard Fourie maintaining the ride.
Little Miss Pink from the Vaughan Marshall stable takes her place in Race 9.
She stayed on after an awkward start over 1250m at Hollywoodbets Durbanville last time.
She has won twice, finished second twice and third three times from 15 starts over this course and distance.
The 6yo mare will be mowing down the frontrunners at the finish.
Please note that Muzi Yeni is not riding today.
