Winning Form selections for @Hollywoodbets Kenilworth on Tuesday 19th May where there are huge prizes available in the free to enter Punters Challenge
Race 1
IN HOT WATER produced a promising debut effort over this C&D. She took time to find her feet, but stayed on nicely to finish second. The daughter of Rafeef would have gained from the experience and with the natural improvement that is expected, she can go one better.
VIRGINIA BLUEBELL was outrun late when second over this C&D last time. The daughter of What A Winter would have come on from the outing and should the top choice fluff her lines, she may be the one to pick up the pieces.
PRINCESS SOFIA finished 1.5 lengths behind the second selection on debut. She was green in running, but stayed on at the business end. The daughter of Querari should make the natural progression.
Race 2
RUBEE KING produced an encouraging debut effort over this C&D. He was reported to have cast a shoe in running that day. It must be noted that multiple horses from that form line have come out and won since. The son of Malmoos would have gained from the experience and with the natural improvement that is expected, he may be the one to beat.
REDFORD showed speed over this C&D last time, but found one too good in the form of Tag And Release who has come out and won again since. He is a progressive type and may have more to come.
BLACKBIRD finished 3.25 lengths behind the second choice on debut. He would have gained from the experience and should make the natural improvement. He is carded to race on 16 May 2026 and his progress in that race will need to be monitored.
Race 3
RABDAN showed signs of needing his last start over 1200m on this course. It must be noted that Tag And Release has come out and won again since. His debut effort when third over this C&D was encouraging. The son of Pomodoro has scope and in this field, he can shed his maiden tag.
RACHETTU showed speed over this C&D last time before getting outrun late. Craig Zackey steps into the saddle and he may be able to coax that little bit extra out of him where it matters most.
PITERAQ has fair consistent form to her name. She was outrun late over 1200m last time and drops back to 1000m. The booking of Richard Fourie is a big plus, and she should give the males a run for their money.
Race 4
NICCI’S LAW finished behind REDLIGHT LANE last time. She is 4kgs better off at the weights today and that should be enough for the tables to be turned. She finished 2.1 lengths behind GIDDY UP GRACE, three runs ago. She is 6.5kgs better off at the weights today. The daughter of Legislate may be the one to side with.
REDLIGHT LANE was demoted as she caused interference over 1500m last time. Andrew Fortune does duty and if keeping on a straight line, she should fight out the finish.
GIDDY UP GRACE was caught late when second over 1600m at Hollywoodbets Durbanville last time. It must be noted that the form of that race has been franked. Aldo Domeyer rides and he may be able to get the best out of her.
Race 5
MENTE ET MANU tried hard when second over 1600m at Fairview last time, but found one too good in the form of Ingqwele. He finished 0.5 lengths behind CHASINGTHERAINBOW in his penultimate outing. He is 7kgs better off at the weights today and that should be enough for the tables to be turned. He should get an ideal run in transit from barrier two and can notch up his fifth-career victory.
PLEASE BE TRUE stayed on when third over 1200m last time. He would have come on from the outing and on best form shown, he should be competitive.
BOOGIEFIED has good consistent form to his name. He has won three times, finished second twice and third once from eight starts over this distance. The son of Justify merits healthy respect.
Race 6
BATON ROUGE set the pace over this C&D last time before tiring late into third. He is having his peak run and takes a drop in class. 2.5kgs claiming Apprentice Sifisokuhle Bungane retains the ride, and he can return to winning ways.
BACKINTHEFASTLANE found more where it matters most to win his last start over this C&D. It must be noted that the horse that finished second that day has come out and won again since. The blinkers have done the trick and he merits healthy respect. He is carded to race on 16 May 2026 and his progress in that race will need to be monitored.
HEAVENLY PRINCE finished 5.75 lengths behind the second choice last time. He is 2.5kgs better off at the weights today and should finish closer as a result.
Race 7
AVIGNON won a game race over this C&D last time. He received a three-pound penalty for that victory. The son of Master Of My Fate is in a good space and may be the one to side with.
OZARK finished 0.4 lengths behind the top choice last time. He is 2.5kgs worse off at the weights today and may battle to turn the form around.
VERCICAT fought hard when winning his maiden over this C&D last time. The son of Vercingetorix takes on stronger, but he is a progressive type and may be up to the task at hand.
Race 8
DEMANDING DAVE was not disgraced when fifth in the Non-Black Type Easter Sprint last time. He has won four times and finished second twice from as many starts over this distance. The son of Horizon is unbeaten under Andrew Fortune and will be looking to keep that record intact.
FLYING FINLEY finished 1.5 lengths behind MAGICAL PLACE last time. He is 3kgs better off at the weights today and that should be enough for the tables to be turned. Keagan de Melo knows him well and the pair merit healthy respect.
NORTH POINT finished 2.75 lengths behind MAGICAL PLACE in the race referred to above. He is 3kgs better off at the weights today and there should not be much separating the pair at the finish.
Race 9
TAKE THAT won a good race when shedding her maiden tag over this C&D last time. She showed good speed, found another kick and drew off in the closing stages. The daughter of Gimmethegreenlight would have come on from the run. She has plenty of scope and should give the males a run for their money.
VOLEGOV followed up his maiden victory with a good third-place finish over this C&D. The son of Querari is in a good space and is one of the leading contenders.
ALL ABOUT AL was outrun late over this C&D last time. The 8yo gelding runs well for Craig Zackey and the combination cannot be discounted
