FM 86 DIVIDED HANDICAP at Kenilworth on Wednesday

S

The Cape has been lashed by storms and downpours for an extended period and the chances of the Kenilworth midweek meeting being run on heavy ground looks very likely. Cape champion trainer Justin Snaith sends a very interesting and lightly raced runner to post in the day’s mainliner in the Jet Master filly, In The Fast Lane.

naith will know from experience that it is going to be very tough topping the season that he has just enjoyed. 198 winners is just unbelievable stuff and seven winners on a day. Well

that’s the material that dreams are made of for most mortal trainer beings! Snaith’s celebrity status also extended beyond the borders of the Western and Eastern Cape when he was awarded and Equus Special Achievement acknowledgement this past

Her major opposition could be provided by another of the three Jet Master progeny in the race. The Mike Bass trained Internet Jet has only won once from her 12 outings, but has the benefit of age and experience on her side.

She is 5,5kgs worse off with Snaith’s youngster on their last meeting where she finished a length in front. That is quite some disadvantage and turnaround to overcome, but Internet Jet is eminently distance suited and somehow looks way overdue for a second win. Cont. p.2
