Crawford’s Captain Could Be Each Way Value Today

First due off @ 12h05

Hollywoodbets Durbanville is alongside Turffontein this afternoon.

Nine races have been carded with the first due off at 12h05.

There are three chances to win big with the free-to-play Hollywoodbets Punters’ Challenge today – get your selection in on the local double-header and Kranji racemeetings and join the excitement.

Englefield Green from the Andre Nel stable takes her place in Race 1 and she should give punters a good start to the day.

She produced a decent debut effort over this course and distance, seven weeks ago. She lost a length leaving the start, raced green and stayed on to finish fourth.

It must be noted that multiple horses from that form line have come out and won since.

The daughter of Gimmethegreenlight would have gained from the experience and with the natural improvement that is expected, she should be the one to beat.

Hollywoodbets-sponsored Trainer Brett Crawford sends out Captain West in Race 9 and he represents decent each way value.

He was an easy winner when shedding his maiden tag over 1250m on this course.

He showed good speed and won with a ton in hand. It must be noted that the horse that finished second that day has come out and won since.

The son of One World takes on stronger, but he is progressive and should be up to the task at hand.

Sporting Post-sponsored Jockey Luyolo Mxothwa is likely to use his early gate speed to overcome the wide draw and he may be hard to peg back.

The Enchanting Currency Of Fate

It is eerie to think that there would have been no Siren’s Call, Sound Of Warning, or for that matter Call To Unite, had fate not decreed that Enchanted Cove follow her dam to South Africa, and that Peter de Beyer had the foresight to return Elusive Fort back home from the States as well!
