Hollywoodbets Durbanville stages a strong card on Saturday, headed by the return of Outlaw King in Race 7 over 1400m. Winner of last season’s Grade 2 De Grendel Cape Merchants, he impressed when third in the Grade 3 Matchem Stakes last time—his best effort yet over this trip. Long seen as a sprinter, he’s showing greater versatility and looks poised for a fifth career win under Craig Zackey for Dean Kannemeyer.
The danger is Zeitz, a Listed Thukela Handicap winner who remains unexposed and well-handicapped. With Serino Moodley aboard, he can make his presence felt. Also respect Let It Be Said and Gallic Dream, both consistent types who seldom run poorly.
Earlier on the card, Hazel Green can go one better in Race 1 after a narrow defeat last time, while Time For Love (Race 2) looks ideally placed to score in a small field under Muzi Yeni. Got The Look (Race 3) has strong claims after being narrowly beaten by Reet Petite, who has since franked the form.
Flying South (Race 4) gets another chance despite a below-par run last time, and Greenchoice (Race 5) should go close again despite a wide draw.
Kinda Wonderful (Race 6) drops back in trip and can return to winning ways after a brave effort in the Diana Stakes, while exciting Gallic Victor (Race 8) returns from a break and could continue his rise through the ranks.
In the finale, Lomu is improving with distance but faces a competitive maiden featuring Chance Encounter, Greek Heiress, World First, and Diogenes—any of whom could strike.
With several progressive runners in action, Durbanville’s meeting promises a thrilling afternoon of quality racing.
