Outright plays (total stake per play: 1pt)

David Higgins to win 14/1 e.w. @ SkyBet
Higgins returned to Tour golf last year after losing his main Tour Card in 2002 and had he played a full schedule, he might well have secured his main Tour Card again. He closed the 2004 Challenge Tour season with four top-5s and a 12th place finish in his last five events. He carried that form over to this season with a 3rd place finish in Mexico and was defeated in a playoff in Guatemala two weeks ago. The Irishman has declared his renewed commitment and determination to get back on the main Tour and is certainly showing the form to do so in a hurry.

Michael Hoey to win 16/1 e.w. @ SkyBet
Northern Ireland's Michael Hoey also ranks in this year's top-5 of the Challenge Tour rankings after three top-5 finishes in six co-sanctioned events with the Tour de la Americas. So with a good record on this continent from having finished 4th in Zambia and 3rd on this course in the Challenge Tour's two events here last year, he looks set to continue his good form on the latest leg of the Challenge Tour schedule.

Erol Simsek to win 33/1 e.w. @ SkyBet
A five-time winner on this Tour. Simsek has shown good form on this Tour to finish no worse than 34th in the last six months and has three top-10 finishes in his last six Challenge Tour starts. With a top-10 finish on this course last and a 13th place finish in other previous appearance in the Kenya Open, albeit on a different course, the former main Tour player certainly has the experience to go close again in Kenya.

FINAL RESULT: 0-3; -3.00pts

Higgins 10th
Hoey withdrawn
Simsek 32nd

Had hoped for much better when pre-tournament favourite Higgins started the final round just one shot behind the two inexperienced leaders. As expected, neither of them won, but there was no comeback from Higgins after he started with successive bogeys.

European Challenge Tour ytd: 2-9; -6.96pts
