PREVIEW: KENILWORTH - 16 AUGUST 2014

COLD AS ICE made a sparkling debut last time. The one to beat. Raced handy and finished well. READY TO ROCK disappointed last time after a good debut. Las run was in March. MATARI makes her debut. Daughter of SILVANO. ALEXIS, daughter of DYNASTY, also makes her debut. The betting on her and other first timers will be crucial. JAZZ CLUB is another first timer worth considering.

1st – COLD AS ICE (46/100 F) (5); 2nd – READY TO ROCK (14); 3rd – MATARI (12); 4th - ALEXIS (3); 5th – JAZZ CLUB (9)

CANADIAN HOUSE ran on when making good improvement in his second start last time. REBEL DOLLAR  can go close on latest two efforts. Weakens though. MOONLIGHT RUNNER improved by twenty six lengths in his second start last time. One to respect. CASTLE has steady form and did run on last time. GRAPE VINE has more to find but is part of the country's champion trainer's yard!

1st – CANADIAN HOUSE (31/20 F) (8); 2nd – REBEL DOLLAR (1); 3rd – MOONLIGHT RUNNER (9); 4th - CASTLE (5); 5th – GRAPE VINE (7)

SHAKARA has shown excellent improvement in her last three starts. A big factor. DANCING JUDY could have something of a chance on a vastly improved latest effort. CREO'S PRIDE has been threatening for a while now. Has been close in recent races. MY WORLD found a strong finish in her latest start. That was only her third run. More to come perhaps. CAPTAIN ROMANOV will be finishing well.

1st – SHAKARA (9/2) (6); 2nd – DANCING JUDY (7); 3rd – CREO'S PRIDE (2); 4th - MY WORLD (286/100 F) (10); 5th – CAPTAIN ROMANOV (1)

EXOTIC JET was suspended last time for a nosebleed. Had decent form before the suspension. RATATOUILLE has been improving with each run since making her debut three runs back. HOPE DOWNS found herself in a winning position last time but weakened at the crucial stage. PHILOSOPHY improved by almost twenty lengths in her second start last time. Respect. ROYAL FOUNDATION has consistent form but occasionally has problems. Could surprise.

1st – EXOTIC JET (62/10) (1); 2nd – RATATOUILLE (8); 3rd – HOPE DOWNS (2/1 F) (9); 4th - PHILOSOPHY (6); 5th – ROYAL FOUNDATION (2)

A competitive race. GREYS INN CONTROL is never far back and finished well last time. GOLDEN DANE hasn't won in a long time and also takes on a bit stronger. FRIENDLY TIBBS faced stronger last time but needs a better finish. MATADOR IN RED is better than latest run. TRAPPED IN ICE takes on much stronger. Did not show at Durbanville last time. Watch for improvement.

1st – GREYS INN CONTROL (5/1) (2); 2nd – GOLDEN DANE (5); 3rd – FRIENDLY TIBBS (3/1 F) (3); 4th - MATADOR IN RED (4); 5th – TRAPPED IN ICE (8)

BLACK BELUGA will be running on. In good form. LANE FROST has fair form. Lost ground at the start last time. Draw a line though that run. SOCIETY ROCK needed a strong finish to get up to win last time against similar field. SIDECAR has more to find but could improve with Grant Van Niekerk in the saddle. O'CHEE PAN was moderate in his post maiden last time. More to do this afternoon.

1st – BLACK BELUGA (5/1) (1); 2nd –  LANE FROST (33/10 JF) (5); 3rd – SOCIETY ROCK (33/10 F) (7); 4th - SIDECAR (11); 5th – O'CHEE PAN (2)

SMILING MISTRESS did show some improvement over the shortest trip last time at Durbanville. Chance if handling the extra. DELTA DANCER has had problems in running. Good chance if getting an uninterrupted run. LOBOLA is never far back but was weakening late in her last two. DISNEY QUEEN weakens but is never too far away. KIND LADY weakens but still has a chance in this field.

1st – SMILING MISTRESS (11/1) (4); 2nd – DELTA DANCER (8); 3rd – LOBOLA (286/100 F) (3); 4th - DISNEY QUEEN (1); 5th – KIND LADY (5)

YOU BEAUTY won easily last time despite jockey dropping his reign. FAIRY MAKER has good form and will be running on. Very good chance. WINTER'S EVE is holding form well. PERINI has shown good improvement in her last three. GEORGEOUS GABY has moderate two post maiden runs but may improve.

1st – YOU BEAUTY (769/100) (1); 2nd – FAIRY MAKER (33/10 F) (3); 3rd – WINTER'S EVE (4); 4th - PERINI (9); 5th – GEORGEOUS GABY (8)
