Rachel And Sooty Could Cause The Upset

Hollywoodbets Kenilworth is alongside Turffontein this afternoon. Nine races have been carded with the first due off at 12h10.

Don’t forget that selections for the free-to-play Hollywoodbets Punters’ Challenge must be in at least 5 minutes before the first is off.

Trainer Paul Reeves sends out Sooty in Race 9 and he represents decent each way value. He is much better than his last start suggests.

He was drawn on the wrong side of the course and never got into the race. He had to overcome the widest draw in his penultimate run behind Kaiboy.

The son of Pathfork has won once, finished second once and third twice from six starts over this course and distance.

He is drawn on the inside of the track and with Rachel Venniker taking the 1.5kgs off his back, he can cause the upset.

Miss World from the Greg Ennion stable takes her place in Race 3. She should have finished closer in the WSB Gr3 Southern Cross Stakes last time as the saddle was reported to have slipped.

It must be noted that Asiye Phambili has come out and won a Grade 2 since. She has won once, finished second twice and third once from five starts over this course and distance.

Richard Fourie is booked to ride and he may be able to coax that little bit extra out of her where it matters most.
