New Caledonia to face a Twist Of Fate

There appears to be tons of value on tomorrow’s Kenilworth card which could result in a huge Pick 6 payout.

There is also a great double to bet on, featuring Twist Of Fate in Race 2 and New Caledonia in Race 6.

The former could prove the best bet on the card when he lines up in a Juvenile Plate over 1200m. He produced an eye-catching performanc­e in his latest effort, running on gamely to finish a 0.50-length second behind Top Of The Class in a 1000m contest.

That outing suggests he will relish the step up in trip, plus that form line has been franked with sixth placed Mr Crumford coming out last Saturday to score an impressive three-length win.

Savea showed tremendous heart to win by 0.30 lengths on debut – defeating Sailor Sam. If not ringrusty, he could make his handicap debut a winning one. Once again that form line has also worked well with a follow-up winner and a runner-up.

For Quartets float Twist Of Fate and Savea with the remainder of the small six-horse field.

New Caledonia returned to winning ways in his last outing, coming from stone last to win by an extending 0.50 lengths. Geoff Woodruff’s charge could prove too classy for rivals in Race 6, a MR 92 Handicap over 1600m.

His record over this distance is most encouragin­g, having run four times for two seconds and a victory. The only disadvanta­ge is that he will need to overcome the widest draw of all.
