HOLLYWOODBETS KENILWORTH, 30.03.2026, Race 1, Gallops, 1100m, Turf, R140,000, 12:30GMT+2

Race Summary: RED WAVE must have a big winning chance in this field, he is very consistent, this looks to be the perfect race for him to exit the maiden ranks. JOUEUR DE FLUTE has been rested for 76 days, he is much better than his last performance behind District Master on the 13th of January, the drop in trip is key for this gelding, if he doesn’t need the run back from a small break, he will go close to winning this race. HEDRIVESMECRAZY has run two nice races with the blinkers fitted, he should be competitive on his current form, watch him closely. VOLEGOV was extremely disappointing behind Fast Train on the 22nd of February, he can definitely surprise them all on his best form, include him into all bets.

Selections: #1 RED WAVE, #6 JOUEUR DE FLUTE, #3 HEDRIVESMECRAZY, #2 VOLEGOV

HOLLYWOODBETS KENILWORTH, 30.03.2026, Race 2, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R125,000, 13:05GMT+2

Race Summary: MARGATE ran a lovely race on debut behind Shezaripper, she was very green early in the race, and she flew home late to finish just over three lengths behind them at the line, with natural improvement expected from this filly, she will take lots of beating. The balance of the form for those who’ve already raced doesn’t inspire much confidence, which brings the spotlight onto a few well-bred first timers, keep a close eye on them both in the parade ring and in the market.

Selections: #4 MARGATE, #7 EL COHETE, #3 MARY CASSATT, #1 ROMAN ROMANCE

HOLLYWOODBETS KENILWORTH, 30.03.2026, Race 3, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R140,000, 13:40GMT+2

Race Summary: VIBE CHECK ran a cracker behind Lady Jean up the straight at Hollywoodbets Kenilworth on the 22nd of February, he is a beautiful colt with lots of ability, there is no doubt that he can win a race like this, include him into all bets. TAG AND RELEASE quickened up smartly to run a good race behind Winter Pirate on the 18th of March, he will love the step up in trip to 1200m, in hope that this run hasn’t come too soon for him, he will go close to winning. LAVA STRIKE ran a fair race on debut behind Rich Man’s World on the 25th of February, he will improve tons going into his second run on Monday, watch him closely. SOUNDSOFSYMPHONIES has been rested for 128 days, he was slightly slow into stride on debut when staying on well late behind Querari Dancer, the yard thinks highly of this colt, he can only improve. Watch the first timers closely, they are extremely well-bred.

Selections: #2 VIBE CHECK, #9 TAG AND RELEASE, #10 LAVA STRIKE, #7 SOUNDSOFSYMPHONIES

HOLLYWOODBETS KENILWORTH, 30.03.2026, Race 4, Gallops, 1000m, Turf, R150,000, 14:15GMT+2

Race Summary: RICH MAN’S WORLD quickened away from his field to win in style on debut, he looks every inch a smart colt in the making, and on what we’ve seen so far, he should be winning again. MY BONNY BOY finished just over eight lengths behind Rich Man’s World last time, even though he is 3kgs better off at the weights on Monday, he will find it tough to turn the form around. Once again, there are some well-bred individuals making their debut here, the market will be your best guide. 

Selections: #4 RICH MAN’S WORLD, #7 MY BONNY BOY, #3 BLACKBIRD, #5 HAPPY WINTER

HOLLYWOODBETS KENILWORTH, 30.03.2026, Race 5, Gallops, 1200m, Turf, R100,000, 14:50GMT+2

Race Summary: BLUE LAGOON has been rested for 124 days, her form is excellent, if she doesn’t need the run after a small break, she will go close to winning in this field. REDLIGHT LANE ran a fair race behind Peaches And Cream on the 14th of February, she’s taking a bit of time to mature, the blinkers have been fitted, and she drops in trip to 1200m on Monday, watch for sharp improvement from this filly. SOMEBODY SOMEWHERE has been rested for 156 days, her two runs to date have been good, even though the 1200m trip is on the short side for this individual, she will be doing some good work late. NTIBINDI has been rested for 212 days, she improved nicely to finish just over two lengths behind Miss William when last seen at Hollywoodbets Durbanville last year, this doesn’t look to be the strongest race on paper, she’s likely to need the run after a lengthy break, she could sneak into the Quartet, watch her closely at a decent price.

Selections: #8 BLUE LAGOON, #3 REDLIGHT LANE, #5 SOMEBODY SOMEWHERE, #7 NTIBINDI

HOLLYWOODBETS KENILWORTH, 30.03.2026, Race 6, Gallops, 1800m, Turf, R120,000, 15:25GMT+2

Race Summary: SPANISH VERSE stayed on really well to finish second behind Tunguska on the 28th of February, he should get the perfect run from a good draw, there is no doubt that he will be right there in the finish on his current form. GOLD GOLD BABY quickened like a train late to finish just over one length behind April Fool’s Day on the 25th of February, she is the only filly in the race, if she brings her last run to the track again on Monday, she will go close to winning from a neat draw. QUIET PLACE ran a much better race with the blinkers fitted last time, there should be no excuses for this gelding on Monday, he has a good draw and the blinkers stay on, he will be competitive. FREQUENT TRAVELLER has run some fair races of late, he will need lots of luck in running from a tricky draw, keep a close eye on him.

Race Summary: FOLLOW YOUR HEART is much better than his last run, he was disappointing behind Whirlwind up the straight at Hollywoodbets Kenilworth on the 31st of January, the drop in trip to 1000m could be key for this beautiful gelding, watch for sharp improvement on Monday, if he bounces back to his best form, he can definitely win a race like this. FLYING FINLEY ran a great race in a strong field on the 4th of March at Hollywoodbets Durbanville, he will be just off the speed early, and he will be flying at them late, include him into all bets. MOODY BLUE won a gutsy race on the 4th of March, it was a terrific ride by top jockey Richard Fourie, even though he was given six points for that good win last time, he should remain competitive in this field. TRAILFINDER finished just over four lengths behind Spirit on the 22nd of February, that was his first run out the maiden ranks, he looks progressive, the drop in trip to 1000m will help his chances.

Selections: #1 FOLLOW YOUR HEART, #7 FLYING FINLEY, #8 MOODY BLUE, #2 TRAILFINDER
