WSB Best Bets – Kenilworth Racing Tips
Below are our standout picks for Wednesday’s meeting, each shaped with deeper insight to help punters uncover genuine betting opportunities.
Race 1 – Vroom Vroom
Richard Fourie | Justin Snaith
Vroom Vroom made a smart debut, showing professionalism and chasing home a well-regarded winner in Gimmeanotherviking. With natural improvement expected and a top jockey staying aboard, he looks poised to take the necessary step forward. A polished performance should see him firmly in the winner’s enclosure.
Race 2 – Loui’s Star
Muzi Yeni | Greg Ennion
This filly attracted support last time and ran with plenty of intent in what shaped as a competitive field. She’s clearly trending the right way and should strip fitter now. With Yeni’s strength in a finish, Loui’s Star looks capable of putting it all together.
Race 5 – Eric Liddell
Juan Paul V’D Merwe | Justin Snaith
A half-brother to the exceptional See It Again, Eric Liddell continues to show improved form with each outing. While not yet near the heights of his illustrious sibling, he is progressing with purpose and now finds a very winnable assignment. If he continues on this upward curve, he will be a major force in the finish.
Race 6 – Easy Money
Craig Zackey | Piet Botha
Having clashed with stronger company in recent starts, Easy Money drops into a race that looks far more aligned with her abilities. She brings solid form lines, and this class relief could unlock a much sharper showing. Dangerous if she gets the right run.
Race 8 – His Majesty
Richard Fourie | Vaughan Marshall
This imported runner shaped with real promise on his local debut, finishing off strongly despite clear signs of needing the outing. With improvement almost guaranteed, His Majesty has the profile of a horse ready to elevate significantly. One of the day’s more intriguing prospects.
Race 9 – Chance Encounter
Gareth Wright | Andre Nel
Consistent, honest and edging ever closer to a breakthrough, Chance Encounter has been knocking loudly on the door. He’s better drawn than several key rivals and keeps delivering solid closing splits. With conditions in his favour, a winning performance looks well within reach.
