Tothemoonandback is on the right distance

March 25 South Africa (Durbanville) preview

- 

RACE 1(1,000M)

(1) SNOW BIRD found betting support on debut when finishing just under three lengths behind Shezaripper on Feb 22. She is a lovely filly with lots of ability, and with natural improvement expected from this well-bred individual, she will go close to winning from a good draw.

(5) PREACHER MAN has run two fair races in succession. The form lines of her last run on Feb 4 have worked out well, she will be just off the speed early, and she will be staying on strongly late.

(3) LUCY’S WORLD finished just over eight lengths behind Grapes Of Wrath on debut. She can only improve from that performance, watch her closely from a neat draw. This looks a competitive race with several well-bred first timers in the lineup. Keep a close eye on them in the parade ring, and follow the market for late confidence.

(6) WORLD OF SECRETS is not without claims.

RACE 2 (1,400M)

(8) FUTURE RED ran a cracker on debut for second behind Ebisu at Hollywoodbets Durbanville on Feb 14. She was very green in the running, the wide draw in this race will make it tough for her, but the step-up in trip to 1,400m will help her chances. If she gets some luck in the running, she will be right there in the finish.

(1) RARE EARTH was doing some good work late in the same race as Future Red last time but she was drawn badly on that occasion. There are no excuses for this filly from a neat draw, and on her best form, she will be super competitive.

(7) THELEIA had every chance to win at Hollywoodbets Durbanville on March 4. She was very one-paced up the lane when finishing just over three lengths behind Vivo Per Lei. In hope that she can finish her race off better, she might be able to sneak into the places from a tricky draw.
