Durbanville Selections (Betting odds are correct at the time of writing and are subject to change).
Race 1 – 1000m (Maiden Plate)
FLEUR DE VILLE had excuses in her last start, so ignore that run. Her form before that race was good, and I am backing her to bounce back and run well.
Suggested Bet – FLEUR DE VILLE EW @ 12/1❌
Race 2 – 1250m (Open Maiden)
BLAME IT ON ME showed big improvement in his last race, and I am taking a chance on him to confirm that run. If he does, he represents excellent EW value.
Suggested Bet – BLAME IT ON ME EW @ 12/1❌
Race 3 – 1400m (Maiden Plate)
MR BELVEDERE returns from a 14-week break and should be fresh and ready. If he is fit to race, he is a leading contender in this maiden race.
Suggested Bet – MR BELVEDERE EW @ 6/1✅ EW Place
Race 4 – 1400m (Maiden Plate)
LATE DECEMBER is better than his last start, and his form before that was decent. If he shows his earlier form, he should run into the money.
Suggested Bet – LATE DECEMBER EW @ 20/1✅ EW Place

Race 5 – 1600m (Maiden Plate)
FAIRFIELD raced wide last time, had no cover, and lacked a strong finish. If she gets better luck in running, she should fight out the finish.
Suggested Bet – FAIRFIELD EW @ 5/1❌
Race 6 – 1800m (Cape C Stakes)
MOHANDAS has shown a form return, and his last run caught the eye when he finished second. From a pole draw, he should be competitive and run well.
Suggested Bet – MOHANDAS EW @ 6/1✅ EW Place
Race 7 – 1250m (Class 4)
TAMBOURINE MAN took a while to shed his maiden but followed up with an impressive third. He carries a handy galloping mass of 52.5kgs, and can run into the money.
Suggested Bet – TAMBOURINE MAN EW @ 10/1 Void-Scratched
Race 8 – 1250m (Cape A Stakes)
ZAPATILLAS has plenty of ability and has been gelded. He needed that gelding, as he was a top-quality racehorse, but lost his way. If he has taken to the gelding and is fit to race, he represents the EW value in the lucky last. I am hoping he can rediscover his early racing form.
Suggested Bet – ZAPATILLAS EW @ 15/1✅ EW Place
