16) TRIP OF FORTUNE
The ironically named TRIP OF FORTUNE might actually struggle with the trip on Hollywoodbets Durban July day. The four-year-old has a formidable record but has only ever competed at a maximum distance of a mile. Whether Raymond Danielson will be able to coax a performance out of him over 2200 metres remains to be seen. The wide draw does the pair no favours
