Hollywoodbets Scottsville plays host to an eight-race programme this afternoon with the first due off at 12h25.
Kitchakal (Athandiwe Mgudlwa) is led in by Anthony Delpech after his last win at Hollywoodbets Scottsville in December (Pic – Candiese Lenferna)
Hollywoodbets-sponsored Trainer Duncan Howells sends out Kitchakal in Race 3. He had to overcome a wide draw in his last start over 1400m on this course.
The way he stayed on at the finish that day was encouraging. He has won twice and finished third once from as many starts over this course and distance.
He jumps from a handy draw of five and if this run has not come too soon, he should take a power of beating. Jockey Athandiwe Mgudlwa retains the ride.
Plaza Accord from the Peter Muscutt stable takes his place in Race 5. He returns from a 14-week break which may have done him the world of good.
The son of Danon Platina takes a drop in class and gets the services of Winning Form-sponsored Jockey Jabu Jacobs.
If not in need of this outing, he can return to winning ways.
