Follow Richard to the riches

Richard Fourie has been riding exceptionally well and has notched up an impressive record in his last 30 rides with seven winners and 13 places.

And he looks the force to be followed at Kenilworth today when he teams up once more with trainer Glen Kotzen.

Fourie makes for great Eachway bets in Race 3 aboard Lindleys Lane and in Race 5 on Shizam.

Up next he rides Elusive Singer in Race 6, a MR 72 Handicap over 1000m. This Kotzen-trained gelding wasn’t disgraced last time out when only a 1,10-length second to Straat-Kind. That run suggests the drop in trip should prove healthy for him here. He shoulders a modest 56.5kg and will jump from a not so bad No 7 draw. His biggest danger could come by way of Prince Alfred, but will have to shoulder 60kg - 3.5kg more than Elusive Singer which could be a massive disadvantage.

Silvan Star could return to winning ways in Race 7, a FM 89 Handicap over 1600m. She meets stronger now but could have enough to edge out this field. Should she fluff her lines the newly formed alliance of Candice Bass-Robinson and Aldo Domeyer could pick up the pieces with Miss Marker who has run against stronger and held her own.

To close off the meeting Fourie could steer home Quickfire who improved on her debut run when winning comfortably.
