Gelded Garrix for Legal Eagle triumph

Cape Racing's 10-event fixture at Hollywoodbets Kenilworth on Sunday is headlined by the second legs of the Winter Series for both sexes, which are the Grade 3 Legal Eagle Stakes over 1800m and the Listed Ladies Mile for fillies and mares over 1600m, and the Grade 3 Winter Nursery for two-year-olds.

Grade 3 Variety Club Mile Stakes winner Garrix lines up in Leg 2 under Gavin Lerena and Piet Steyn's charge will likely add to add his Leg 1 success with another victory in Race 7, Leg 2 of the Winter Series.

This progressive son of Vercingetorix reappeared as gelding for the first time when winning his last start and took up the running a long way out before staying on resolutely under Ashton Arries, despite drifting to the outside rail, to win by 1.50 lengths.

On the evidence of that performance, the Steyn-trained three-year-old will be better suited to the extended trip and should improve for it under Lerena.

Fellow three-year-old La Pulga, himself a last-start winner, and veteran hard-knocker Rascallion will make life difficult for Garrix and are worth including in Swinger, Exacta and Trifecta bets.

Elsewhere on the card, it could pay to follow the progress of exciting North Point in the Grade 3 Winter Nursery (Race 5) over 1100m after the William Longsword gelding's impressive back-to-back 1000m victories.
