Durbanville Selections (Betting odds are correct at the time of writing and are subject to change).
Race 1 – 1000m (Maiden Plate)
MRS SHACKLETON last three starts have been good. That form lines of her previous run has been franked. She is in a good space and should run into the money.
Suggested Bet – MRS SHACKLETON EW @ 6/1❌
Race 2 – 1000m (Maiden Plate)
SCOTTISH LINKS produced a good debut run when finishing third. He has since been rested and returns after a four-month break. If fit and ready, he should run into the placings.
Suggested Bet – SCOTTISH LINKS EW @ 6/1❌
Race 3 – 1250m (Maiden Plate)
This is a shallow race, so I am taking a first-timer. BEACH QUEEN is well-bred and is related to multiple top-winning horses, such as BEACH BOMB and NARINA TROGON. If not too green on debut, she can win this type of race.
Suggested Bet – BEACH QUEEN EW @ 7.5/1❌
Race 4 – 1250m (Maiden Plate)
CUMBRE VIEJA has top-form lines and should shed his maiden tag soon. He has cracked a pole draw and is a leading contender in this race.
Suggested Bet – CUMBRE VIEJA EW @ 4/1❌
Race 5 – 1400m (Maiden Plate)
TUSCAN ROMANCE has finished second in all three of her starts in her young career. She is a consistent filly and should win soon. I think she can go close here.
Suggested Bet – TUSCAN ROMANCE EW @ 4/1✅ EW Place
Race 6 – 1400m (Class D Stakes)
FLY TO RIO won well last time, and I see no reason why she can’t follow up. She races with a handy mass of 55.5kgs and is a leading contender.
Suggested Bet – FLY TO RIO EW @ 4/1❌

Race 7 – 1400m (Class 4)
SPIRIT’S UNITE has been knocking on the winner’s door and should win soon. He is a model of consistency and has finished in the top three in each of his last five races. He is taking on stronger but carries a low mass of 54.5kgs, so he should be competitive.
Suggested Bet – SPIRIT’S UNITE EW @ 9/1❌
Race 8 – 1250m (Class 4)
DARK WINTER is much better than her last start in a Grade 2. She is having her first run of the new season and may need this outing. However, she is a progressive filly and should run well.
Suggested Bet – DARK WINTER EW @ 6/1❌
Race 9 – 1600m (Cape C Stakes)
MISS NEW YORK has been running well and has not finished too far behind the winners. She meets a similar field here and can continue her strong form and run into the money.
Suggested Bet – MISS NEW YORK EW @ 10/1❌
Race 10 – 1600m (Maiden Plate)
DUBBELOSIX produced a good second run and is coming along nicely. If he continues his progressive runs, he should fight out the finish in the lucky last.
Suggested Bet – DUBBELOSIX EW @ 6/1✅ EW Place
