A study of the careers of South Africa’s top stallions shows a pattern.

To get near the top of the national log, a stallion needs to build momentum.

Mostly made up of about 4 crops of high-end earners. The tables below show how.

The first has the stallion’s position on the national log by season, starting with his very first 2yo’s.

The second table has the same numbers in different order, with positions as the crops build momentum.

The 2016 SA Champions Season fairtytale reaches a heady climax at Greyville on Sunday when Cape trainer Mike Bass saddles the Silvano gelding Marinaresco in the R1 million Gr1 Champions Cup. It will be the legendary conditioner’s final bid for a Gr1 winner after a forty year career as he hands the keys to his Milnerton yard over to his daughter a few hours later.

ass has trained 32 Gr1 winners, who between them have won 50 Gr1’s, including three Julys and five Mets.

That’s a great record in anybody’s book and it is difficult not siding with Marinaresco, even if the head suggests a measure of caution with luck needed from his 14 draw.

Top Sort

“Marinaresco is doing well but we are going to have to hope for a bit of luck because we again have a bad draw. We will have to again drop him out because he doesn’t race up with the pace,” said Bass assistant Candice Robinson this week.

A superb late chasing runner-up in the Vodacom Durban July, Grant van Niekerk’s mount is in the red to score for Mike Bass, whose most recent victories in this race have been with African Appeal in 2007 and Africana Lion four years earlier.

Favourites have won the

last three runnings of this conditions race, with 3yo’s at 56,5kgs and 4yo’s and older a base 58kgs.

Winners of a Gr1 race geta 2kg penalty, while Gr2 winners get 1kg.

Coming from the clouds when runner-up to The Conglomerate in the July, the Tekkie Town Winter Guineas and Winter Classic winner is much better off at the weights in this event and is likely to be well fancied.

Marinaresco was lumbered with an eight-pound penalty for his July effort but once again meets his fellow threeyear-olds that ran in the July at level weights and all things being equal he should beat them again.

Snaith Duo

Justin Snaith will be looking to end the season on a high and he saddles a pair of quality runners.

The classy 3yo Trippi colt Baritone ran a cracker on July day in the Listed Daisy Business Solutions Handicap over 1600m on the turf.

He did not have the clearest of passages, but was doing

excellent work late for a 5,15 length fifth.

He ran off a merit rating of 104, meaning he carried 60kg and was giving weight to most of the field including older horses.

Top Effort

Snaith said, “It was a brilliant run, he had it all to do at the weights. He is a dark horse as he is not far off my best three-year-olds. He just cannot crack a good draw, but still always runs creditable races.”

This progressive type looks ready to win a big one and the tongue tie obviously helped last time after he had been reported to have “choked up in the latter stages” in the Canon Guineas, when moving up well and not finding the necessary extra.

Anthony Delpech staying aboard is another bonus, but the wide draw of twelve makes it tough.

It Is Written has transferred to Snaith from Dean Kannemeyer and he may have his fancies from a good draw with Piere Strydom up. He is 3,5kg under sufferance on

official merit ratings with the best weighted horse, Punta Arenas, but the distance looks ideal.

Snaith said, “He is doing well, although he’s not the easiest horse and has had a long season. But the Champions Cup is a bit weaker than normal besides Marinaresco and we are taking our chances.”

Tyrone Zackey’s Judicial has always been an above average sort and is in prime form, having won two of his last three races.

The son of Miesque’s Approval lacks a length or two, but given the likely soft underfoot conditions, he warrants taking his chances.

No Exit

Cup Trial hero Exit Here has drawn a bit wide but is a good front running sort who is capable of following up on his last victory.

Stablemate Ice Machine has drawn very wide and cannot be fancied over the 1800m.

Million Mile winner No Worries is in hot form and looks ready to make a big bid to score his first Gr1 success.

He is a horse that hardly knows how to run a poor race.

His stablemate Rocketball was well beaten in the July, but on his Daily News 2000 and SA Derby runs has shown himself to be a decent 3yo.

Gavin Lerena rides the son of Judpot from a good draw and he will enjoy a stiff test off a good pace.

Wide Draw

Dean Kannemeyer’s Mambo Mime has had no joy with the draws and he pulls a wide one again.

The son of Mambo In Seattle has shown himself to be a top-class 3yo and if things go his way, he should be just off them – but Marinaresco looks to have his beating on their July meeting – when things didn’t go Mambo’s way.

Saratoga Dancer was the surprise package in more ways than one in this year’s July. Considered in some quarters to be lucky to get in, he then ran a sparkling race running on stoutly for fith and only 2,40 lengths off.

A repeat of that kind of effort from his good draw, suggests he be included.

The 7yo Punta Arenas tends to come well at this time of the year and he came right back to best with a good win in the Delta Airlines 2200 (aka the Consolation July).

The son of Silvano will relish the kind underfoot conditions and could be worthy of inclusion for the back end of quartets – particularly in testing conditions.

Downfield

Joey Ramsden’s St Tropez had no luck in the July when stable elect but failing to kick on and running 14 lengths downfield.

His penultimate jump when staying on well in the Betting World 1900 was much better, but even with Anton Marcus

up, he cannot be fancied with confidence.

Bezanova has not won a race in over a year but stayed on behind No Worries in the KZN Million Mile last time out. He always seems to have a few lengths to make up at the level.

Sean Tarry’s 8yo Gold Onyx failed to make the cut in the Gold Cup and he looks past his best to assert in this Gr1 company.

Stablemate Malak El Moolook is winless in 18 months and while he has not run far off recently, he should battle against the top four.

Bass The Choice

This is a fascinating contest and a win for Marinaresco would make it a memorable end to the season. The son of Silvano has plenty in his favour and he is the selection to beat Mambo Mime and Baritone.

Watch the underfoot conditions closely and include Punta Arenas and It Is Written in bigger perms.

Highlights of JUDPOT’S amazing season

What are the Chances?

Two legs of the Triple Tiara

Pictured is 2yo filly FINAL JUDGEMENT winning the Golden Slipper on Vodacom July-day. The youngster is one of just 16 fillies from Judpot’s small 4th crop. Of the 16, five raced as 2yo’s, three earned black type.

Pictured is 3yo filly JUXTAPOSE, winning the SA Fillies Classic before going on to the take the SA Oaks.

FINAL JUDGEMENT won the Golden Slipper and ran third in the Devon Air S.

She’s the second 3yo Gr1 filly in Judpot’s first three crops, following ALONG CAME POLLY from the stallion’s freshman-crop.

MALEFICIENT won that Devon Air Stakes, and started odds-on favourite for Final Judgement’s Golden Slipper (she ran a close fifth).

Earlier in the season, JUXTAPOSE had placed in the Three Troika’s Stakes and the Fillies Mile.

TIMEDTOPERFECTION finished third in the Godolphin Barb Stakes against the colts.

Five 2yo fillies, 3 stakes horses. What are the chances - or better still: how good can it get? Next season will tell: Judpot does great with 3yo fillies, too.

Ranked with the best of the fillies in her year, JUXTAPOSE has earnings of over R1.4 million.

SA Derby – Oh No!

From Dash to Marathon

Pictured is 3yo ROCKETBALL, who gave Triple Crown winner Abashiri the scare of his life in the SA Derby, final leg of the crown.

ROCKETBALL ran second by an official nose, to become Judpot’s second SA Derby runner-up – one year ago 3yo DEPUTY JUD split winner Legal Eagle and third finisher French Navy in the big race.

Earlier in the season ROCKETBALL placed in the Sea Cottage Stakes, while DEPUTY JUD showed his versatility with a win in the Gr2 Supreme Cup over 1450m.

ROCKETBALL’S earnings stand at R720.000, DEPUTY JUD over R1.4 million now.

Pictured is 4yo filly LITTLE GENIE, who won two 1000m sprints, the Gardenia Stakes (beating Carry On Alice) and Bauhinia Stakes, to show that Judpot gets black type over all distances.

Another daughter DOUBLE WHAMMY won the 1200m Lady’s Pendant, bringing her career earnings to over R600.000.

At the other end of the Judpot stamina spectrum is THREE BALLOONS, runner-up in the two-mile Chairmans Cup during the 2016 Cape season, and third in the KZN Derby. He’s carded as reserve for the Gold Cup on the last day of the season.

Whatever next Judpot’s largest crop to date will be 2yo’s next season. They were conceived on the strength of his bunch of 2yo Gr1 winners in his freshman-year.

First, though, there’s the grand finale of the 2015-16 season at Greyville on 30 July.

FINAL JUDGEMENT in the Thekwini Stakes ROCKETBALL in the Champions Cup THREE BALLOONS as first reserve in the Gold Cup. So much to look forward to!

Gr1 PREMIERS CHAMPION STAKES at Greyville on Sunday

S

A typically classy and exciting field of eleven 2yo’s line up in the R600 000 Gr1 Premiers Champion Stakes. It is difficult discarding any one of them, but Justin Snaith could hold the trump card with his smashing Australian bred son of Zoffany.

naith runs the unbeaten colt Zodiac Ruler – a fellow who came on lengths from a quiet polytrack debut victory to notch a spectacular win on July day.

This big colt has lost ground in both of his starts before powering through to win impressively, and this was particularly so last time out in the Gr2 Durban Golden Horseshoe over 1400m. He looks likely to relish the step up in trip and jumps from pole position with Strydom up.

Snaith said, “He is very well, I am happy with him and he is improving all the time.”

Magic Mike Mike De Kock saddles Misty Birnam and Qeyaadah.

The former chased Zodiac Ruler home in the Golden Horseshoe but was well beaten 1,50 lengths.

The son of Toreador has won two of his four starts and is bound to enjoy the step up in trip here.

The Aussie-bred Qeyaadah won his maiden last time beating Mr O Neil on the poly.

He had run three seconds at his first three starts, and showed that he definitely goes the mile at Scottsville at his penultimate start.

Sean Tarry’s Africa Rising was a good winners on debut over the Scottsville 1200m.

He was backed to favourite and ran on smartly – and with a measure of maturity – to beat Rock Of Africa.

He is well drawn and looks likely to relish the mile.

Great Gadsby Ashburton trainer Paul Gadsby rates his chances with the Gimmethegreenlight gelding Gunner, although he admitted the favourite Zodiac Ruler would be hard to beat.

He said, “I would like to hope he has a chance, although if I had a choice between 1400m and 1600m at this stage I would probably go for 1400m. He has a lot of quality and is a trier, he has a very big heart.

“He is a light framed horse and tends to lighten up in his races, so I almost had to give him a week off after his July day run, but he will look spot on in the parade ring on Saturday.”

Gunner caught the eye on Vodacom Durban July day in the Gr 2 Durban Golden Horseshoe over 1400m. He was caught wide the whole way from a draw of nine yet still managed to stay on very well for a 1,75 length third to Zodiac Ruler.

He has another tricky draw of seven in an eleven horse field, but if Brandon Lerena, who replaces S’Manga Khumalo, is able to slot him in he could have a shout and should stay the trip.

Corne Spies’ Lotus Elan ran on well to win on his sprint debut and then ran second to the highly thought of De Kock runner Heavenly Blue.

Well beaten by 3,60 lengths, he was found to be coughing afterwards and certainly warrants a tilt here.

Charles Laird’s very exciting Palladium won his first two with low-flying finishes and then came from the clouds when running on steadily in the Golden Horseshoe for fifth. The son of Silvano enjoys a ‘jockey strike’ in Anton Marcus and if the going doesn’t bog him down, must be the danger to Zodiac Ruler.

Azzie Duo Mike Azzie duo of Rivarine and Ryder, who hail from the same farm as Palladium, are both going in the right direction.

On exposed form, Rivarine must be the preference – and Anthony Delpech adds plenty of value.

The beautifully-bred Gr1 performed son of Var is sure to go the mile – his dam is a Met winner – and enjoys the benefit of solid feature experience.

Ryder shed his maiden over a mile at Turffontein last time and looks a gelding who is likely to go at least 2000m when the penny drops. He will enjoy a bit of mud and slush – so beware! Vaughan Marshall saddles the Horse Chestnut colt Step Up from a nice draw.

A course and distance winner of two of his four starts, he showed a nice turn

of foot last time to beat The Boxster easily and looks an unexposed lurker for those aiming for the big number Pick 6 payout.

Gavin Van Zyl’s Without A Doubt is still a maiden, but has been thereabouts in all four of his runs.

He appears held by Rivarine and Qeeyaadah and may battle in this league now.

Top Choice Zodiac Ruler stands out as the natural first choice and he could maintain his unbeaten streak by ending his 2yo career on a high.

Of the rest, Misty Birnam and Palladium are likely to give him most to think about – while watch River Jetez’ good son Rivarine under Delpech. What a lovely bunch of 2yo’s!

Gr1 THEKWINI STAKES at Greyville on Sunday

T

The Super Sunday juvenile fillies’ Gr1 contest has attracted a capacity field of fourteen and a highlight promises to be the return match between Golden Slipper winner Final Judgement and the rather unlucky KZN challenger Dawn Calling.

he finish of the July Day Gr2 Golden Slipper was one of the best we have witnessed this SA Champions Season and with Anton Marcus taking the reins from Muzi Yeni on Dawn Calling, Stuart Randolph may have little sleep on Saturday evening.

Best

Randolph was at his underrated best when Final Judgement impressed winning the Gr 2 Gold Circle Golden Slipper over 1400m from pillar to post on Vodacom Durban July day.

She had been cramped for room in her previous start in the Listed Devon Air Stakes over that same course and distance, so the plan to allow her to use her long stride from pole position worked out well.

On Sunday she now has a wide draw of 12 to overcome.

Glen Kotzen said, “She is doing exceptionally well and came out of that last race bouncing. She will need luck from the draw, but is quick out of the pens so should be able to be placed well. She certainly doesn’t have to go to the front and I am looking forward to it because she will love the step up to a mile.”

She is up against a few of the horses she beat in the Golden Slipper and will start a lot shorter than 20/1 this time.

Just Beaten

Trippi filly Dawn Calling was beaten a neck by Final Judgement when shifting her ground late and running on strongly.

She has a great draw here and looks capable of turning the tables on her conqueror.

She has four second places

to her credit from just six outings, and it may be that she is one of those horses who has a mental block when it comes to going past the leader. But Marcus will remedy that.

Dennis Drier has a nice coupling and the best ofhis duo may be the Philanthropist filly, Sail.

She won two on the trot and ran on well for under a length of the top two in the Golden Slipper. Sean Veale may have to enjoy a measure of luck to overcome her barrier gate, but she looks set to be in the mix again.

Her feature unexposed stablemate Hungry Heart was a smooth maiden winner last time and also tries the mile for the first time. This will be a lot tougher for her.

Tarry Attack

Trainer Sean Tarry has a powerful trio in the race and a case could be made for any

of the three. Piere Strydom retains the ride on Golden Slipper fourth Visuality.

The daughter of Visionaire is yet to run a poor race in four starts and from a good draw and a more restrained ride could challenge.

S’manga Khumalo rides the less favourably drawn Safe Harbour, a winner of 2 from 4, and who has her first run in the holiday province.

Vaal debut winner Kahula enjoyed a fair introduction to Greyville on the poly at her third start and gets thrown in the deep end.

Mike Azzie’s Querari Falcon challenged strongly when second behind Maleficent in the Devon Air Stakes.

That form – beyond Final Judgement – has proven unreliable to some degree, but she cannot be discounted.

Her stablemate Oasis Queen produced a fair postmaiden effort and has her first run in KZN. She has taken some time to come to hand.

Justin Snaith has Fortissimus, who was recently bought into the yard.

This Mogok filly was caught a bit flat footed at the top of the straight in

the Golden Slipper over 1400m last time, but then began staying on and ended up seventh.

She has 7,25 lengths to make up on the winner of the latter race, Final Judgement, but looks likely to enjoy the step up to 1600m.

Snaith said, “She will run well although I don’t know if she is up to it. She has a lovely temperament and her work has not been bad at all so she could be a dark horse from a nice draw (eight of 14).”

Gavin Van Zyl saddles a trio of fillies, including reserve runner Raes’ Dyna Jet. Poster Girl disappointed in the KZN Yearling Sale feature when beaten 2 lengths by Lunar Rush.

Stablemate Costa Da Sol has consistent form but has drawn very wide and will need plenty of luck in running.

Chill Baby Chill won her maiden at her second start but has ordinary form since.

Corne Spies’ Bonne Vie won her Vaal debut at any price but is a well related daughter of Var who could

Gr2 Gold Cup PAST WINNERS

Gr2 GOLD CUP at Greyville on Sunday South Africa’s premier staying race may have been downgraded to a Gr2, but the Gold Cup will remain the major visual attraction on Super Sunday. The likelihood of a testing surface after days of heavy rain will mean that the 3200m contest has been thrown wide open – and a surprise result is on the cards.

ith the Greyville track waterlogged as we went to print and all concerned hoping for some late week sunshine, the Gr2 Gold Cup has taken on the dimensions of a field leg for exotic punters. Add to this the inability of many trainers to give their charges proper work and we are faced with a serious one to unravel.

Best Chance Interestingly Justin Snaith is on record as believing he has his first ever decent shot at the Gold Cup with the “class act” Ovidio and the generally good draws he has landed with his other runners on Super Saturday have made him hopeful of enjoying a better day than he did on Vodacom Durban July day.

The Aussie-bred Ovidio has always had the Gold Cup as his target.

Snaith was quoted as saying that the Danehill Dancer gelding had “the odd soundness issue”, so was given a five month layoff after his fine victory in the Gr 2 J&B Urban Honey Stayers over 2800m on J&B Met day and had also been kept in Cape Town for the bulk of his Gold Cup preparation due to the more forgiving ground at this time of the year.

Only one horse in the past decade has completed the Jet Stayers-Gold Cup double – Mokaro in 2009 – but Ovidio will have plenty of supporters. Ovidio arrived at Summerveld three weeks ago.

The former SA champion trainer was bullish about the booking of Striker Strydom.

“He is very well, I am very happy with him.

He is a proper staying horse, there is no stamina doubt, and he has a perfect draw (seven), I wouldn’t want to be any closer in. The Australianbred Danehill Dancer gelding likes to race from behind and the booking of master-of-pace Piere Strydom will enhance his chances in the Gold Cup.” “My only worry is his 105 merit rating,” said Snaith. “It means he has to carry 59kg, which is a lot of weight over that distance. But he’s here to race.””

Speed Dean Kannemeyer’s Cape Speed has been marked up as the 9-2 favourite, despite the fact that 3yo’s do not have a particularly good record in the marathon.

But this son of Ideal World won the Track & Ball Derby at Scottsville which, under its new format, is now also not suited to three-year-olds.

Cape Speed has only raced nine times but has won five of those. He is also unbeaten in KwaZulu-Natal this season.

However, he will be trying 3 200m for the first time and has not won over further than 2 400m which was in the Derby where he beat Deputy Jud by a neck. He carried 55kg on that occasion and is only up 0.5kg in the Gold Cup. In-form Anthony Delpech takes the ride again and they will jump from barrier No 8.

Kannemeyer also saddles Balance Sheet and Solar Star. The former was the runner-up to Wild One in the Gold Cup last year and while his Gold Vase effort was less than impressive, the son of Silvano is highly regarded.

Geoff Woodruff raids with Arch Rival and former Sansui Summer Cup winner Master Sabina.

Master Sabina will be trying this distance for the first time and will carry 60kg. Arch Rival won the Gr2 Gold Bowl over 3200m at Turffontein and will get every inch of the journey.

He went on to win a Pinnacle Stakes, beating Enaad who franked the form with a win in the Grade 3 Gold Vase over 3000m at Greyville on Durban July day, by 0.40 lengths and will meet his rival on 2kg better terms.

He started his Champions Season campaign with a warmup over a ‘mile’ and then stretched to 2400m for only the second time in his career he finished just over a length back to the blinkered No Worries in the Highland Night Cup. Joey Ramsden’s Coltrane is off his best recently but is the sort who could capitalise on the unknowns. Zafira is the only filly in the race and will be ridden SA Champion apprentice elect Callan Murray.

JUST

De Kock Enaad is one of five runners from the Mike de Kock stable and the former champion trainer is quite happy about the state of his runners.

“I think he’s very well handicapped,” said De Kock. “He put up a very good performance in the Gold Vase and the only reason I wasn’t more confident was because I did feel he was suspect over the distance. He is now stronger, better and more mature and I would say he is the best of the five. However, he is drawn wide and that is a problem. I know the race is over 3200m and barrier positions are less relevant but for me, a bad draw is a bad draw.

“If you are well drawn you can often get a position for nothing but off a wide draw you always have to work to get a position. But a lot can happen over 3200m,” he added wisely.

S’manga Khumalo, who rode him in the Gold Vase, takes the ride.

De Kock warned that punters should not write The Centenary off. “She is out of a Montjeu mare and I believe will get the trip. Richard Fourie got off last time when she ran second to Punta Arenas and was very impressed with her. She’s a game filly and she looks like a stayer. I’m quite confident she will get the 3200m,” he said.

Behind Bass Everyone will be rooting for a Mike Bass success and the veteran saddles the mercurial Helderberg Blue, who has an uphill battle here.

Just short of top class, the son of Jet Master has calmed down as he has got older and can finally run up to his full potential as he steps out over 3200m for the first time.

As a 3yo she has it all to do but stays well and has a galloping weight to shoulder.

Pick One It is a lottery of a race but it makes sense to side with Dean Kannemeyer and Anthony Delpech to round off a great season with the impeccably consistent Cape Speed.

Enaad and Ovidio could be best of the rest. But, watch the weather – and go wide!

SPORTING POST • FRIDAY 29th - SUNDAY 31st JULY 2016 Smart debut winner La Revere looks an exciting sort

Olma is overdue to win again

Gr2 THE DEBUTANTE at Greyville on Sunday

J

The R300 000 Gr2 The Debutante has to be one of the most open races on the SA Champions Season feature programme curtain call. With no standout filly in the field, we may consider siding with the proven big day yards.

ustin Snaith saddles the Captain Al filly, The Merry Widow, who gets the services of Anthony Delpech from a favourable 2 draw.

She made no show when slow away in the Golden Slipper but on reflection ran a fair race when finishing just 6 lengths off from the worst of the draw.

She is a diminutive filly that may cope well with the anticipated surface conditions and may also prefer the drop down to the sprint trip.

Perfect Record

The Avontuur bred A Womens Way won readily on her Scottsville 1000m debut back in early May. Her next scheduled outing did not pan out favourably when she was withdrawn at the start. That means she comes into this race off an eleven week break and green to Greyville. She also has a wide draw to contend with.

Duncan Howells also has KZN Million Sale winner Lunar Rush in this race.

The daughter of Windrush was never headed to win that richly endowed sales race but faces much stronger here.

Well Bred

Alec Laird’s Arissa ran wide in the Devon Air Stakes when 6.10 lengths behind Maleficent.

The beautifully bred daughter of Silvano was placed at feature level prior to that in her home province and would appear to be much better than her last run. She has shown plenty of speed and could be a danger if she gets away from them.

The Philanthropist filly Flash Fire finished marginally behind Arissa in the Devon

Air Stakes after being slow off and may deserve a second chance with a bit of luck in running.

Debut winner La Revere has been a talking filly for some time. The daughter of Var beat a small field over the Scottsville 1000m and must have a chance of following up on that in this line up. She hails from the Drier yard.

Gavin Van Zyl’s Aussie bred Mygirldownunder impressed on her odds on debut win but then failed to come up to expectations when unplaced in the Gr3 Strelitzia Stakes at her last start. She won’t have it easy from a wide draw.

Alyson Wright’s Horse Chestnut filly Roy Is Second has lived up to her name running second at two of her three outings.

She is still a maiden and will need to improve on what she has shown to date to challenge for top honours.

Lyle Hewitson rides the Grey’s Inn filly Shebang for Mike Azzie.

A smart debut winner at any price she then came out and was beaten 4.6 lengths in a small field behind Safe Harbour. This will be her first run at Greyville.

Kotzen Duo

The in-form Glen Kotzen could not separate his pair of fillies, Shizam and Trippi’s Girl.

They have both landed plum draws and Grant van Niekerk and Stuart Randolph are the respective riders.

Shizam by Kahal had to be scratched at the start when strongly fancied for the KZN Yearling Million due to a cut she had attained when exiting the parade ring, but the wound turned out to be superficial.

Kotzen believed she was

entitled to need her next start, especially as it was her first time around the Greyville turn.

She was handy and a little keen in the latter race, a handicap over Sunday’s course and distance on July 16, so considering she was up against older horses it was a fine effort to finish just 2,15 lengths back in fifth off an 82 merit rating with Randolph aboard. Kotzen believed the run to be part of a good preparation.

Before that Shizam had some fine maiden form in Cape Town against good horses before winning in eyecatching style over 1200m fifth time out. The four winners to have come out of the latter maiden where beaten half-a-length, 9,75 lengths, eleven lengths and 17,45 lengths respectively, and those statistics suggest she put up a fine performance that day.

Trippi’s Girl was still green when running out an eyecatching 1,5 length winner under Randolph over 1200m at Scottsville in her second career start on July 6.

Kotzen said, “She is a gorgeous filly, very classy, we think very highly of her. She is on the up, but it is her first run at the course.”

Wide Draw

Sean Tarry won’t be happy with the 11 draw for his beautifully bred Water Lily Lake.

The daughter of Trippi won well on her Turffontein 1000m and then ran a decent third next time. She has had excuses both times and could be equal to her first big test – first time round the turn.

Zadora was well beaten in the Golden Slipper last time and will need to improve.

Gr2 GOLD BRACELET at Greyville on Sunday

O

The R400 000 Gr2 Gold Bracelet presents a perfect platform for Frank Robinson’s gallant and consistent Dynasty filly Olma to register another stakes win. On the weight for age plus penalties conditions she stands out in the field of twelve.

lma has shown that she boasts plenty of ability and hardy versatility and should have no issue with the 2000m contest being turned into a stamina sapping test if the treacherous Greyville underfoot conditions persist.

Powerful She ran a beautiful race on July day when coming on strongly from midfield to be held to a half length by the top class Inara in the Gr1 Garden Province Stakes.

Her old pilot Ian Sturgeon is back in the saddle and he knows her well - although it is surprising to see that Piere Strydom takes the mount on the much lesser fancied Ma Choix, after doing nothing wrong the last twice.

Deputy Ryder is one of three Neil Bruss runners in the race and looks likely to be one of the last he will saddle prior to his departure on contract to Saudi Arabia.

The daughter of Go Deputy stays very well and ran on powerfully at her last start in a race won by her stable mate Zante with the aid of the superior pace judgement

by Anton Marcus, two weeks back.

As a course and distance winner she must be fancied to go very close if Olma should fluff her lines.

Weichong Marwing will partner the mentioned Zante,

who may not be as fortunate this time to get away with dictating a tardily run affair.

The third of the Bruss runners is the year younger Flying Ice who won the Devon Air Stakes as a two year old.

Another daughter of Go Deputy, she has improved with every step up in trip but is winless as a three year old and could remedy that under Anthony Delpech.

Tarry Factor Sean Tarry is always a factor in these fairer sex contests and his duo of Enchanted Silk and the progressive Intergalatic will give him some hopes of ending another title winning season on a high.

S’manga Khumalo takes the mount on Intergalatic who showed plenty of pace in the Garden Province Stakes before fading late.

The Kahal mare Enchanted Silk has improved nicely at her last two runs and although both were on the polytrack, and she is drawn wide, she looks to have every chance of running into the back end of quartets.

Top Class The Mike Bass trained Nightingale came to Durban with a big reputation and has not performed badly.

Her run to Bela-Bela in the Gr1 Woolavington 2000 gave notice of her true ability and on collateral could prove to be the biggest danger to Olma.

As we have said repeatedly,

there will be plenty of sentiment riding on the back of the Mike Bass runners!

Striker Ma Choix is a game daughter of Choisir but looks to have some ground to make up at these weight terms.

Piere Strydom in the saddle is always an asset and she could be thereabouts.

Gathering Fame is always capable of a big effort although her last run was not the kind of effort that would have suggested she was fancied to turn the tables on the likes of Olma - and she cannot be backed with any confidence. Patchit Up Baby is a frustrating filly to follow and seldom gets herself into a position where she can deliver a killer blow.

That said, she could well enjoy a testing contest and is always worthy of consideration given the fact that she has a very decent turn of foot if things go her way.

13 Tarry’s Flying Myth has to overcome a wide draw to go very close

Gr2 UMKHOMAZI STAKES at Greyville on Sunday It is interesting to see three fillies facing up to the boys in the R300 000 Gr2 Umkhomazi Stakes. It won’t be the first time that trainer Corne Spies has pulled a tactical rabbit out of the hat and his flyer Seattle Singer looks a serious threat from her favourable draw.

A

field of 11 lines up in this 1200m feature and on the face of it Seattle Singer has a cracking chance on her best form.

The daughter of Sail From Seattle has a remarkable form- line that includes four stake raced runner up cheques and she extraordinarily only shed her maiden at her penultimate start - and then only just.

She has matched strides with the boys previously

and was the only opponent to give Vaughan Marshall’s very exciting Gold Medallion winner Always In Charge a remote run for his money – albeit well beaten.

She comes out refreshed after an 8 week break and from a favourable 2 draw with regular jockey Muzi Yeni in the saddle will give them a run for their money.

No Luck

Sean Tarry has had no luck with the draws for this final

meeting of the season and his promising Storm Bird Stakes winner Flying Myth has to contend with the widest of the gates.

The son of Trippi was a facile winner of his last start and with a bit of luck will rattle the Spies filly’s cage.

Johan Janse Van Vuuren brings the pacy British Royale down for a tilt at the Gr2 trophy. If he takes to the Greyville turn the son of Great Britain cannot be left out.

It could be a big race for Great Britain as Grant Maroun saddles two of his progeny. The unbeaten filly Wrecking Ball looks to be his stable elect. She has won twice over the Vaal 1000m with impressive showings of good toe.

Wrecking Ball is yet to take on the boys and it will be interesting to see how she adapts to the right handed Greyville turn.

Her rider Gavin Lerena will be a big plus as he looks to finish the season on a high.

Her stablemate Queen Laurie is another daughter of Great Britain and she took four starts to shed her maiden in facile fashion at Turffontein three weeks ago. She had excuses there as she was cut

into in the running and it was a victory full of merit.

Count Von Count was a shock winner on the polytrack at his second start and he will need to show that was no fluke as he gets tested here.

Drier Duo

Dennis Drier has two in the race with Gimmethegreenlight’s debut winner Hack Green coming straight out of his 16-1 victory into Gr2 company.

It is difficult to know what to make of that win and he is another who will need to confirm his rated status.

His stablemate Rocky Valley beat subsequent maiden winner Shoot The Bull at his second start and Anton Marcus rides him for

the Joostes. He should enjoy the extra.

Tyrone Zackey travels from Joburg with the Miesque’s Approval gelding Outshine who is another that falls into questionable recent form category.

Kom Naidoo’s pair of Ocean Drive South and Over Sure look to be making up the numbers on their recent form.

Tactics

The race looks likely to develop into an interesting – albeit predictable tactical contest.

Seattle Singer will be out quickly and Flying Myth looks likely to be chasing at her late.

The rest will have to be half decent to have a shout.

Gr3 CHAMPAGNE STAKES at Kenilworth on Saturday

T

Justin Snaith is soon to become a Dad, so the champers will no doubt already be on ice. He has a strong hand in the Kenilworth Saturday feature where the top - class Captain Al filly Victoria Lavelle returns home with obvious hopes of ending the season on a high.

he R250 000 Gr3 Champagne Stakes has been won by some top class fillies over the years and the 2016 renewal is as good as anything we have seen. The race looks to be dominated by the 3yo’s who look to have the better recent form – and enthusiasm.

Rain With the whole country being hammered by winter rains, the track conditions could well play a key part – but even then, Snaith could go out with a bang.

Victoria Lavelle had four runs up in Durban with her best an eye -catching third place finish to subsequent Gr1 SA Fillies Sprint winner Real Princess in the Poinsettia Stakes.

She was fancied to run a good race on July day but failed to enjoy the poly when finishing 4.10 lengths back to Red

Carpet Captain in strong mixed company. She is a Kenilworth 1200m course and distance winner and on familiar territory with the talented Richard Fourie up, looks ready to win again.

Her stablemate Acaciawood is also a course and distance winner but a few lengths inferior and likely to challenge for the back end of quartets.

Chevauchee at her last start and looks to be a filly with plenty of scope for further improvement.

Neala is another 3yo filly with above average ability and there is little between her and Varumba on form.

Andrew Fortune travels to Cape Town again after a disappointing rained out Durbanville on Tuesday.

Unbeaten

Kotzen Pair

Andre Nel’s unbeaten Querari 3yo Quine impressed when winning her second start after 9 month break over Saturday’s course and distance after being slow away. While on paper she has it all to do, she is obviously much better than rated and one for the notebook-if the second run syndrome doesn’t lower her colours.

Vaughan Marshall saddles the bang in form Varumba who has won her last two starts with a good turn of foot. She gave weight to the highly vaunted

Glen Kotzen trained the only winner at the Durbanville meeting in the week where he also ran 2nd and the yard sends out a coupling which includes the high class Double Whammy. The daughter of Judpot carries top weight but has not been at her best of late. She has tumbled from an MR 103 down to a 90 and would only need to reproduce her best to have a say.

Stablemate Aliysa’s Prize was only beaten a length by Quine last time and now finds herself

Victoria Lavelle could make it a champagne day for the Snaiths

4.5kgs better off with the Nel filly. In the latter’s defence (as already mentioned), she was returning from a long rest and could probably be expected to make improvement with her increased fitness levels. Brett Crawford saddles a coupling of the lightly raced Beach Goddess and the consistent Secret

Society. Beach Goddess flew late in the Listed Olympic Duel Stakes when held to a head by her talented stablemate Chevauchee – a decent sort!

Come Fly With Me has been out of sorts for a while.

Beach Goddess’ form is really clean and she is yet to put in a poor performance.

Mission Possible Justin would not have sent Victoria Lavelle home early without a minor mission in mind.

She could be good enough to beat Quine, with Beach Goddess and Double Whammy chasing.

Exciting Innovation at Vaal

15

Wall Of Honour

Phumelela have announced the inauguration of an exciting and innovative race meeting at the Vaal racecourse which allows for fields of up to 28 runners plus two reserves in four lucrative races, including a R750 000 feature event.

W

orld Sports Betting are once again the sponsor. The Grand Heritage, a conditions race for all horses, will be run over 1475m on October 1 this year.

The rails dividing the Inside and Outside Vaal racecourses will be taken down for the meeting, leaving one wide racecourse. This rail is moved regularly on an ad hoc basis for normal meetings so taking it away will not have any effect on the going.

The R750 000 prize money will be divided thus: R412 500 for first, R132 000 for second, R66 000 for third, R33 000 for fourth, R16 500 for fifth, and R10 000 will earned by the 6th to 15th positions, provided 28 runners are declared.

The weights will be based on three tiers, Tier 1 will be 57kg and above, tier 2 will be 53kg to 56,5kg and tier 3 will be 50kg to 52,5kg. There will be no gender or apprentice allowances.

The determination of the final field will be at the sole discretion of the operator.

Grand Jackpot All entries will automatically be entered in the R250 000 Heritage Consolation Handicap race over the same course and distance and there will be a maximum of 28 runners in this event too.

Declaration fees shall be refunded for horses eliminated from the Grand Heritage when the final field is announced, but will be subject to paying the declaration fee for the consolation should they choose to run.

There are two R150 000 handicap races over 1200m where there will also be a maximum of 28 runners. The benchmarks for the three handicaps are to be determined by the handicappers.

The fields in all four legs make for a Grand Jackpot and will hopefully include maximum fields sizes of up to 28 runners and two reserves.

Entries for the Grand Heritage close at 11h00 on Monday August 8, although there is also a supplementary stage which closes at 11h00 on Monday September 19. The entry fee is R2280 non-refundable and the supplementary entry fee is R4560.

The declaration fee is R5700 (refundable if eliminated).

The first weights will be set on Wednesday August 10.

The final weights will be set on Tuesday 20 September.

The final field will be announced on Wednesday 21 September at an Event to be announced.

Thumbs Up Phumelela’s Racing, Hospitality and Events Executive Clyde Basel said, “After the sand racing program had ended we held a workshop with our stakeholders and they have given the thumbs up for the Grand Heritage race meeting to go ahead. It will provide the opportunity for ordinary horses to compete with the best horses on fair terms for good prize money. The four 28 field races will hopefully provide for a Grand Jackpot and our betting division will be innovative in catering for this bet, which should attract huge interest.”

He added: “The meeting will also be marketed as another family fun day out just as the meeting it replaces, the Emerald Cup, was in the past. It will be a stand-alone meeting as the Jackpot races will hopefully each require 28 jockeys, who will be flying in from all corners of the country.”

Famous Races The Grand Heritage will become South Africa’s equivalent of famous big field handicaps like The Cesarewitch, The Cambridgeshire and the Tote Ebor, which are three of the biggest annual betting heats in England.

World Sports Betting have undertaken to price up early on the Grand Heritage in order to replicate the massive interest which the three aforementioned races attract.

Many famous betting coups have added to the romance of these races and trainers’ reputations have been enhanced by victory in any one of the three races.

After forty years of saddling winners, Mike Bass hands over the reins to his daughter Candice on Sunday evening. The Sporting Post canvassed a few of those whose lives he has touched.

Marsh Shirtliff - leading owner

Justin Vermaak - Greenstreet Bloodstock

It has been a great honour and true privilege for me to be associated and having had horses conditioned by the master of horsemen Mike Bass over the past 15 years.

A truly world-class trainer with a godlike record.

A true racing legend.

Pippa Mickleburgh - Avontuur Stud Mike is a true master of picking a yearling.

He would never buy a horse he never liked. So one could never make him like it - he had to! I love to chat to him and he has a great knowledge from stud work to racing.

A true friend!

Mick Goss - Summerhill Stud I’ve met some professionals from around the world in my time.

Mike is up there among the elite, both as a pro and a humanbeing. Hopefully we’ll see more of him and Carol now that they have time on their hands.

Rodney Dunn - Honorary Life VicePresident Western Province Racing Mike Bass – a super guy and a great trainer. A family man with a great family. Mike served with me for over 20 years on the WPOTA committee and was a Trustee with me on our WPOTA Benevolent Trust Fund. We honoured Mike a few years ago on Kenilworth’s WP ‘Honour the Greats Programme’ for his outstanding training feats and highlighting the magnificent performances of the great Pocket Power and many other champions he had created.

Tarquin Norval - NHA:Stipendiary Steward Mike is not only a respected horseman but a gentleman.

It has been my privilege to have known him long before he became involved in the professional side of racehorse training.

He has been associated with a steady stream of champion horses over the years and won more than his share of the top races in South Africa.

Knowing Mike he will enjoy a busy retirement and continue to advise the stable and enjoy their success.

Nico Kritsiotis - Betting World My overriding memory of Mike Bass was 2007 J&B Met day. I had the honour of racing in the Bass box on the day and they had 5 winners including 2 Gr1’s.

My brother quipped to me just before the last race “This has been a Bass kind of day!”

Legendary trainer and a fine gentleman.

Tex Lerena - Jockey Association South Africa Mike Bass -The Clint Eastwood of South African Racing! Not much said but plenty of Oscar’s won – a Jockey’s dream, as staunch as they come from the days of jockey Paddy McGivern. Thank you for your contribution to S A Racing – may the Bass Legacy continue with Candice and Mark - all the best to Mike & Carol.

Vee Moodley - Phumelela The man gave us the POWER to believe in Champions although our POCKET never saw the benefit.Passion!

Dave Mollett - Journalist As he’s a keen golfer, perhaps there is a parallel between the careers of Mike Bass and top American golfer, Phil Mickelson.

Over the years, both have always been competitive in the ‘majors’ with Mike’s tally being eight (five Mets and three Julys).

Also both have never made excuses for any failures - very rare when you’re in the sporting spotlight.

Mike also had his own Frankel in Pocket Power - it doesn’t get better than that.

David Safi - Formgrids I landed some huge betting coups based solely on form study trusting very few yards.

Mike Bass was one of the few. A master trainer who always gave the punters a full go. One could back his horses with confidence.

A true credit to his profession.

Graeme Hawkins - Gold Circle An uncomplicated, quiet but hugely talented and professional trainer who let his horses do the talking.

Andrew Bon - Television Producer Michael William Bass is without doubt in the top three finest human beings, I have ever had the privilege of knowing. Kind, astute, clever and ever the gentleman.

A supreme horseman.

Rouvaun Smit - Commentator One of the true greats of the modern era. Mike enjoy your retirement and best wishes on your new chapter in life.

Kevin Shea - Champion Jockey What a great man to ride for and a world class trainer, father, husband and friend. He will never be forgotten in racing - a true legend.

Gary Grant - Equine Group Mike has left an indelible memory for our industry, and we wish him a long, peaceful and happy retirement.

Derek Brugman - Mayfair Speculators A Gentleman, fierce competitor, horseman, sport’s lover and fantastic human being. A true legend.

Robert Bloomberg - Kenilworth Racing

John Koster - Klawervlei Stud

Gandalf gave me my greatest moment in racing with July winner Dunford and for which I will always be eternally grateful.

Mike Bass – famous for his “buy the ballerina a drink”. A great traveling mate and one helluva gentleman. He is a legend !

SPORTING POST • FRIDAY 29th - SUNDAY 31st JULY 2016

The Journey of a Thousand Steps SA’s golden girl, Smart Call, has completed the next step in her journey to the Breeders’ Cup and arrived in Newmarket on 29 June.

I was lucky enough to be in the area recently and popped in to see how she’s doing.

I

have a funny way of choosing horses to follow. I either have a feeling for them or I don’t. It’s something that’s hard to explain and (unfortunately) not a tool I seem able to employ at will, or I’d be writing this from a deserted desert island with a daiquiri in the other hand. Nevertheless, when it does roll round, it generally means something good.

I’d seen a few Ideal World progeny and liked the look of them, but the market is an unforgiving thing. It’s sink or swim and freshman sires have a very small window in which to make an impression.

Ideal World’s small first crop hit our tracks in 2014 and while they were knocking on the door, they weren’t setting the world on fire. But then Smart Call popped up on my radar and that familiar feeling kicked in, so when I heard Alec Laird was bringing Smart Call to Cape Town for the Paddock Stakes back in January, I rang up and made an appointment.

Media is pretty good these days in terms of photographs, videos and so forth, but with the big horses you don’t really know until you’re standing in front of them. At least, I don’t. Winston Churchill said there is something about the outside of a horse that is good for the inside of a man and he’s right. But there is something particularly special about a ‘big’ horse and once you’ve experienced it, it’s not something you forget in a hurry. Standing in their presence gives you a sense of well-being and an overwhelming feeling that God (or whichever deity you prefer) is in his heaven and all’s well in the world.

Meeting Smart Call Alec was tremendously generous with his time and we ended up spending most of the morning in Smart Call’s stable at her temporary digs in Milnerton.

While we discussed his family history, his career, and some of the bigger name horses that have passed through his hands, Smart Call moved quietly around her box, picking at her feed and frequently stopping to nuzzle her trainer, or simply

standing quietly to breathe on his shoulder. The star filly is not flashy as horses go – she’s a fairly plain bright bay with delicate bracelets of white on her near fore and hind feet and a tiny star situated high on her forehead.

Her physical proportions and sheer quality are arresting though and the X factor is most definitely there. Plus she is one of the kindest, most gentle horses I have ever met. I went home filled with an easy confidence and made sure I was one of the first to congratulate Alec after her Paddock Stakes win.

Smart Call’s subsequent hit-it-out-of-the-ballpark 2016 Met victory somewhat overshadowed the enormity of her Paddock Stakes achievement and I’m not sure it got quite as much fuss as it deserved. Alongside the Queen’s Plate, the Paddock Stakes formed part of this year’s Breeders’ Cup Challenge ‘Win and You’re In’ initiative, which includes Breeders Cup entry fees as well as a $40k travel allowance to all Challenge winners situated outside North America.

So when Smart Call powered past the post that day, she rubber stamped her ticket to America. The Met – spectacular as it was - was ‘just’ a rather nice cherry on top.

However, if there had been any second thoughts about attempting the challenge, the manner of her Met win blew them clean out of the water.

Smart Call was off to the Breeders’ Cup.

Have passport, will travel The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step and Smart Call took the first of those steps when she arrived at the Oaklands quarantine facility on 5 March 2016.

On 27 March she jetted off to Mauritius where the team made the arduous journey seem more like a beach holiday than enforced confinement with gorgeous photos of her swimming in the ocean and taking leafy walks through the surrounding forest.

Which goes to show, it’s all about perspective, but the team have had a quiet confidence and ‘can do’ attitude throughout her career, making it all seem

(from the sidelines anyway), terribly easy and, well, fun.

Smart Call’s island holiday came to an end on 27 June, when she set off to Europe, with her suitcase labelled ‘Abington Place, Newmarket’.

However it was a fairly roundabout journey and she first flew into Nairobi in Kenya, then on to Liege in Belgium.

From Leige there was a 3 hour road trip to Amsterdam, where the team got a 12 hour respite before tackling the last 8 hour leg of the journey which included a ferry trip across the English Channel before they finally arrived at Abington Place in Newmarket on Wednesday, 29 June. Google Maps tells me the trip totals around 16,000 kms.

Old friends in new places As the S.O. and I had booked a trip to the UK and practically have to drive through Newmarket to visit family in Norfolk, I managed to steal a day out of our trip to pay her a quick visit. As luck would have it, Alec was also in England at the time and I got to catch up with them both.

Newmarket is widely considered the home of horse racing and a visit is a pilgrimage for any racing fan, so it is particularly special to drive up to Abington, announce your arrival to the polished brass intercom and have the ornate wrought iron gates swing graciously open.

Alec was waiting to receive us and, as seems to be our habit, we ended up in Smart Call’s stable.

She seems to have taken the trip well in her stride and if anything, rather than looking stressed by the ordeal, she seems to have filled out somewhat. In fact, we arrived in the middle of her breakfast, which Alec had arranged in a bowl at her door.

“She didn’t seem to want to eat out of the manger, so I thought I’d try this,” he explains. It seems to be a success as she munches away happily while we chat.

She is much the same as I remember from our first meeting, if not a little more imposing. She has been clipped and Alec explains

that having wintered in Mauritius, Smart Call threw a bit of a coat, but she is shiny and has dapples of good health. She takes the stable invasion in good humour, happily carrying on with her breakfast, while we talk and admire her.

scheduled for the second day of the series on Saturday, 5 November 2016. Smart Call’s paternal granddam, Banks Hill ran it twice, winning in 2001 (beating ill-fated South African runner, Spook Express) and finishing second to Starine in 2002.

He relates that owner Jessica Slack had mentioned wanting to have a runner in the Breeders’ Cup for a while and adds, “When we won the Woolavington I told her this was the horse.”

Of course it’s not Alec’s first trip around the block, having been one of the first wave of our modern pioneers to take on the world’s best in their own back yard in Hong Kong’s QEII Cup with London News back in 1997.

Fittingly, in winning the Woolavington, Smart Call credited her sire, Mauritzfontein resident Ideal World, with his first Gr1 winner from his first crop.

Alec has something of a knack for producing the first Group 1 winners for freshman sires, having done so for no less than three so far – Greys Inn (Royal Bencher), Judpot (Forest Indigo) and now Ideal World with Smart Call.

“After the Woolavington, everything went smoothly.

Her win in the Paddock Stakes got us in and after winning the Met there was nothing left for her to prove at home,” he says.

Having taken the travelling well, Smart Call has started her Newmarket training regime. She’s completed her preliminary work and on the day of our visit, Alec had spent the morning walking miles across the Newmarket heath inspecting the tracks and confirmed that they were ready to step things up.

All being well, Smart Call’s prep run will be the Gr1 Sun Chariot Stakes over 8 furlongs of Newmarket’s Rowley Mile Racecourse on 1 October 2016. The race will be off at 15:25 English time (16:25 local time).

Pointing out that they’ve allowed a little over 3 months to get ready, Alec shrugs and says “Well, we can’t afford anything to go wrong then, can we? We’ll just have to take it as it comes.”

The Breeders’ Cup The 2016 Breeders’ Cup will be the 33rd renewal of the series and will be held on Friday 4th and Saturday 5th November 2016. This year’s event will be hosted at Santa Anita Park in California under their slogan ‘The Best Return To The West’. Smart Call’s entry has caused a stir and Alec confirms that the media hoopla has already started.

Smart Call will be aiming for the $2 million Gr1 Breeders Cup Fillies and Mares Turf over 1 ¼ mile,

Reality check Seeing Smart Call unconcernedly munching her breakfast, there, in New-

market, is something of a surreal experience.

The Breeders Cup is around 100 days away now and it’s all starting to feel uncomfortably real.

“It’s exciting, isn’t it?” asks Alec with a grin and I realise that despite everything – all the hours, the hard work and the worry - he’s enjoying himself. And that makes me grin too and realise that yes, it is exciting. Wildly so.

Given everything it’s taken to get this far, it seems a little silly to ask what he thinks of her chances, but I ask anyway.

Alec answers, “We’ll give it our best shot.”

I give Smart Call a final pat and leave with a sense of wellbeing and an overwhelming feeling that God’s in his heaven and all’s well in the world.

BOLD SILVANO

One of three July winning sons for champion sire Silvano, Bold Silvano was an outstanding racehorse who was South Africa’s Champion Middle Distance Horse of 2010.

Mike & Carol Bass

Mike Bass took out his trainers licence in 1976 and the winners have been arriving steadily ever since, bringing with them group 1 success, trainer’s titles and turf champions.

After falling seriously ill in August last year, Mike announced his retirement at the end of the current season and eLan Gold Cup Day 2016 will bring down the curtain of 40 years of training.

He talks to us about his career, his retirement and saddling second-placed July finisher Marinaresco for his own race, the Gr1 Mike and Carol Bass Champions Cup.

stage, but with this (he gestures at his leg) she was wonderful and took over straightaway.

She’s got natural talent too, she’s a good judge and has a good eye for a horse and that’s really what you need. It’s a matter of looking at a horse and deciding whether it needs more work or less that’s where the judgement comes in and she has that.”

The words are more than just paternal pride, there is a genuine professional respect too.

Marinaresco BERYL Markham once said “A lovely horse is always an experience.... It is an emotional experience of the kind that is spoiled by words” and a visit to Mike Bass Racing is very similar.

It’s difficult to pinpoint exactly what makes it so special, but one always leaves feeling better than when you arrived.

To start with, it is easy to spot Block T3, Koeberg Road - you simply look for the yard with all the cars parked outside it. Through the doors it is much the same - Carol’s mum occupies her seat in the corner, wrapped up against the wintery morning, Candice’s dogs mill around, admin staff answer phones and tap away at computers in

the back office and a steady stream of jockeys and visitors made their way in, through and out again, exchanging banter as they go.

It is a happy, busy place that naturally draws people to it. And perhaps that’s been the key to their success over the years.

That little bit extra They say the only difference between ordinary and extraordinary is a little bit extra, but in examining extraordinary people or achievements, there is a tendency to look for imagined exotic and magical explanations for their success. In Mike’s case, the opposite is true. There

are no fireworks, secret recipes or fancy gadgets just patience, experience and good old-fashioned horsemanship. Real magic, the stuff that happens out in plain sight: hard work and the art of repeatedly doing things well. Just in their case, a little bit extra. If those are qualities one admires, then Block T3 is one of the best places in the world to be. Perhaps that’s why it’s always so hard to leave.

The other critical factor is teamwork. Mike has always had a strong support base in his family – wife Carol, daughter Candice and son Mark – as well as a close-knit team. There is not a huge staff turnover – those that arrive tend to stay and they all work together with an easy familiarity. As they say, good people make good horses.

While Mike’s illness may have had life-changing consequences, a visit to the stables finds the routine much the same as always.

After watching the strings, we retreat to the office to escape the winter chill. Coffees are offered all round and Mike easily recalls how I take mine.

Handing over “We have a very close family and are very lucky in that respect. My son Mark brings me to work every day because I’m not quite ready to drive yet. My daughter Candice was always going to t a k e over at some

We warm our hands on our coffee mugs while Mike has his breakfast of Marmite toast and discusses July bombshell and Champions Cup hopeful, Marinaresco. “He was small, but a quality individual and he was my pick of the sale that year. I first saw him on the farm at Mauritzfontein. I knew his dam – Stephen Page had her in Cape Town and I thought she was quite a good filly and probably a bit better than her record reflected, so it was a combination of things – liking the horse and liking the individual. He went for R1,2 million, but he’s by Silvano out of a Fort Wood mare and that’s what they go for these days, but I couldn’t find anything much better. I’m lucky to have patrons with that sort of money. It’s always a bit of a worry when they’re small, but he’s turned out alright.”

July run In finishing second in this year’s July, Marinaresco stamped himself one of the most exciting 3yo’s of his generation. It’s unusual for Mike to run a 3yo in the July and asked what prompted the decision, he answers, “I’ve never sent many 3yo’s to Durban as it’s hard on them when they’re so young. It was a gamble whether to stay in Cape Town for the 3rd leg of the winter series and the R250k bonus or try for the July, but at the weights we were fairly confident he was in with a chance. I think it worked out OK.”

Behind every great man…

Carol arrives and gets strong-armed onto the sofa.

Mike smiles fondly, “Carol has been an absolute rock for me in the stable and she’s been to just about every race meeting. She’s the big boss of the jockeys and the one that moans at them all the time,” he teases. “Carol doesn’t work in the yard as such, but does the books and so on.”

If the dictionary was illustrated there would probably be a picture of Carol next to the entry for ‘diplomatic’. Carol is the consummate trainer’s wife, always ready with a reassuring

smile or a kind word although she protests that she’s by far the more emotional of the two. “I have improved over the years though, one has to.

That’s the nature of racing – it’s adapt or die! But we’ve always been best friends – we’ve been lucky in that respect.”

Bunter Barlow After Pocket Power, the second most famous Bass legend is the purchase of their first Met winner, Bunter Barlow. Carol tells the story.

“I’d had quite a good night at the casino on the slot machines. I won’t tell you how much I won – it’s crazy where it’s all gone,” she throws up her hands in mock despair.

“They put it all in bags and when I got home with all this money, I put it on the table and asked Mike what we should do with it. Mike said that Jimmy Rentzke wanted to sell Bunter Barlow and was asking R75k for a half share, so I said, ‘Let’s buy him!’

Mike rang up and that was that. It was six weeks before the race, so that worked out really well for us.”

Bunter Barlow obligingly finished 3rd in the Premier’s Stakes and qualified for the 2001 J&B Met. Carol continues, “Trademark was the more fancied of our runners and we actually didn’t see Bunter Barlow coming. Because Bunter’s colours were similar to El Picha, we thought Woodruff’s horse had won. We were so disappointed that Trademark had been beaten on the line and then everyone started congratulating us and telling us we’d won. It was quite amazing, really.”

Even more amazing was when the second placed Trademark went on to land their first July a few months later. “They were both bought from the Spier sale,” remembers Mike. “Trademark came from Lionel Cohen and cost R115k and Bunter Barlow was from Daytona and went for R80k. We were quite nervous bidding on Trademark – it was a lot of money and we had no Marsh Shirtliffs at that stage,” he jokes. “They eventually sold him to Dubai for quite a lot and he’s retired out there now on one of the Sheikh’s farms. Paul Devlin’s wife works there and sends us news from time to time.

Bunter Barlow was sold to the UK as a hurdle horse, but he was never any good. He’s now retired to a lovely home in France.”

Career best Asked to name the greatest triumph of his career, Carol chips in, “Robert Bloomberg always says getting Dunford to win the July was Mike’s greatest achievement. Robert bought him in training as a 1-time winner.” “He looked

like a Basuto pony,” grins Mike. “But he was gutsy and he had ability and he came into the race at the right weight, you know? He’s retired with Grenville Wilson and we’ve got his brother in the yard at the moment. But if I had to name a highlight, it’s hard to look past four Queen’s Plates with Pocket Power.”

While it would be incorrect to only associate Mike with Pocket Power, it is also impossible to mention one without the other. Mike has 6 Queen’s Plates, 5 Mets and 3 Julys to his credit and of those, 4 Queen’s Plates, 3 Mets and 1 July came courtesy of Pocket.

The sparky bay’s winning photos occupy a large portion of the office walls and his plaque ‘Pocket Power Lived Here’ still proudly adorns the entrance to the yard. “Marsh (Shirtliff) had been racing for a few years by then, but I didn’t know him,” continues Mike. “He came up to me at the Durbanville sale one year and said ‘My girlfriend wants a horse with you’. I didn’t like the horse he chose, but we ended up buying Tobe Or Nottobe and it was the start of a wonderful relationship.”

Gr1 Mike & Carol Bass Champions Cup We were amazed to have the race named after us,” says Mike.

“Throughout my illness we had fantastic support from so many people. Really, we continue to be amazed.”

Marinaresco carries the Bass flag in ‘their race’ on Sunday and Mike confirms that the horse is doing very well, admits they will need some luck in the running from their draw.

Retirement Asked what his feelings are about his impending retirement, Mike shrugs, “Nothing will change. I’ll still be here every day, but more in an advisory capacity, as I have been in the last couple of months.” As the old expression goes, true horsemen never really retire and Mike is already looking ahead to next season. Mark chips in, “One of the things that Dad deserves credit for is his success with first season sires. We’ve got huge faith in What A Winter and we’ve gone all in at the sales.”

Asked what he thinks What A Winter might produce, Mike looks thoughtful, “They’re strong and racy - they look like they’ll win races.”

While it’s unthinkable to imagine SA racing without Mike Bass, it’s farewell, rather than goodbye and comforting to know that he will be back at his post come 1 August.

Adding that little bit extra.

Harlem Shake gallops on powerfully under a beautifully judged ride

Gr3 FINAL FLING STAKES at Kenilworth last Saturday

H

Glen Puller’s gutsy 3yo Harlem Shake showed her massive heart and character to lead all the way to win the R250 000 Gr3 Final Fling Stakes at a chilly Kenilworth on Saturday. In the process she enjoyed the distinction of becoming Klawervlei stallion Warm White Night’s first stakes winning daughter. arlem Shake has become a notable milestone setter!

She was also her sire’s first ever winner – from his first runner – when she won on her 800m debut in the very first juvenile scurry of the 2014/15 season.

Warm White Night, a smashingly

handsome son of the champion ill-fated Western Winter was a multiple Gr1 winning sprinter in an illustrious career on the track.

He won 7 races (five of those Group races) from 1000m to 1200m.

Joey Ramsden’s Hard Day’s Night was his first stakes winner, when showing the same type of resolve as Harlem Shake on Saturday,

when scoring in the 2015 Gr2 Selangor Cup. The Final Fling Stakes run over the winter track 1800m attracted a field of fifteen and Heavelon Van Der Hoven had the pacy Harlem Shake over quickly from her wide draw to lead after 200m.

Into the straight she continued to gallop strongly and despite being passed briefly by Andrew Fortune on Fear Not, Harlem Shake was merely having a breather and she came back strongly to draw away and go on to win

by 1,75 lengths in a time of 116,11 secs. Van der Hoven rode Illuminator to win the inaugural CTS Million Dollar for the same yard six months earlier. Icy Fire ran on strongly to hold off Sublime Lady for second, with Fear Not close up in fourth. The fancied Acrostar moved up dangerously late but ran out of steam to finish just out of the places. Harlem Shake has been a model of consistency.

She took her stakes earnings total to R343 400 with her fourth win with three places

from thirteen starts. Bred by Klawervlei, she is a daughter of Warm White Night out of the Australian-bred Snippets mare, Malakeh.

Named after an internet Meme, she was a R150 000 Cape Premier Yearling Sale Book 2 purchase, and looks to have a very bright future.

Warm White Night has just one lot on the CTS August 2yo Sale at Durbanville on 6 August. Lot 73 is out of the Temptation Time mare, Don’t Rush and is offered by The Alchemy.

Close - But Summerhill Hold Edge Over Klawervlei...

Shake, Rattle ‘N Roll!

EAST CAPE PADDOCK STAKES (Listed) at Fairview last Friday

T

A terrific four-timer for Yvette Bremner at Fairview on Friday gave first season apprentice Lyle Hewitson a squeak of catching the long-time title pacesetter Callan Murray, with just days left of the current season.The R150 000 Listed East Cape Paddock Stakes was the day’s feature.

rainer Alan Greeff produced the goods from his six-pronged attack, courtesy of the Australian-bred Purely Atomic, who registered a well-deserved first stakes success, in the hands of Charles Ndlovu.

Richard Fourie and Justin Snaith enjoyed a superb hat-trick on the day, and they looked to have this one in the bag when the well supported 18-10 favourite Harvard Crimson came home powerfully inside the 300m.

But Purely Atomic was not lying down and she rallied powerfully at 8-1 to get up and win by 0,75 lengths in a time of 99 secs flat.

Harvard Crimson was not disgraced in second, while her stablemate Cup Cake showed heartening resolve from her wide draw to come through well for third – and show cause that the mile may be within her range.

The Australian-bred Purely Atomic has won 5

races from 1000m to a mile – and has proven her prowess and versatility on both surfaces.

She has run ten places from her 20 starts and took her earnings to R401 950.

Purely Atomic is a daughter of Encosta de Lago out of the Danehill mare Catching Moonbeams – a daughter of French Gr1 Prix de l’Abbaye winner, Imperial Beauty.

She was offered by Summerhill Stud on the 2013 Emperors Palace National Yearling Sale where Wilgerbosdrift purchased her for R1,6 million, making her the top-priced filly on the sale.

“I love the looks of this horse, she has lovely extra long ears and I just loved her pedigree. I think if I bought her in Australia she would have made a very similar price. I am very much looking forward to her joining the broodmare band eventually, as she has very good paddock potential”, said Mary Slack after Purely Atomic was bought.

An interesting sideshow in this final week of the 2015/16 season will be the race for the Breeders Championships. KZN kingpins Summerhill look set to wrest the trophy from reigning champions Klawervlei Stud and land a milestone tenth national title.

O

n Saturday Glen Puller and Heavelon van der Hoven helped Klawervlei close the gap on Summerhill by winning the Gr 3 Final Fling Stakes over 1800m at Kenilworth with Harlem Shake, who became Warm White Night’s first stakes-winning daughter. By close of play on Saturday Klawervlei on R19,782,625 were R610,187 behind Summerhill, whose runners had earned R20,392,812 in the season up until then.

The two biggest stakes earning opportunities on Super Saturday are in the Gr 2 R1,25 million eLan Gold Cup and the Gr 1 R1million Mike & Carol Bass Champions Cup and Summerhill are the only one of the pair represented in either race.

The Dean Kannemeyer-trained Summerhillbred five-year-old Kahal gelding Solar Star showed he will likely stay every inch of the Gold Cup 3200m trip when staying on for a 2,3 length fifth in the Gr 3 SABC Gold Vase

over 3000m on Vodacom Durban July day, despite having no cover the whole way. He will be better off in the weights with all four who beat him and is now drawn in pole.

The Summerhill-bred five-year-old Geoff Woodruff-trained gelding Arch Rival is by the stamina influence A P Arrow and is another with a fine chance, despite a wide draw of 14.

In his last two starts he has won the Gr 2 Gold Bowl over 3200m and a Pinnacle Stakes event over 2450m, both at Turffontein. In the latter event he beat the ruling Gold Cup favourite Enaad by 0,4 lengths and is now 1,5kg better off.

In the Champions Cup over 1800m the Gavin Van Zyl-trained Summerhill-bred sixyear-old Kahal gelding No Worries bounced back to form with two fine performances over 2400m, but then proved this had little to do with a step up in trip when running on strongly off the back of a slow pace to win the KZN Breeders Million Mile. He is drawn nine on Saturday.

Go Bass’ Go!

The fast growing Green Street Bloodstock is expanding internationally to bring their client base a wider range of ownership opportunities and a chance at winning major prize money. They have appointed their first trainer in Singapore.

“The rapid and substantial growth of Green Street SA is something that never ceases to amaze me, it’s real ‘pinch myself’ stuff”, said Justin Vermaak, director of GSB as he confirmed that young trainer James ‘Hollywood’ Peters had been appointed as Green Street Stable’s first trainer in Singapore.

The 31 years old trainer James Peters claimed his first feature race win after Titanium won the $300,000 Gr2 Stewards’ Cup in May. The 31-year-old Englishman and former assistant-trainer cum senior track rider officially began operations on April 1 in a seamless switchover from trainer Michael Freedman.

“None of the GSB progress would have been possible without support from our loyal client base and this will be the same with our international expansion,” said Justin.

GSB International will be launching in Singapore, where the Turf Club offers an attractive rebate scheme which minimises costs.

Stakes are top-class and paid within a system that allows owners greater opportunity to break even, and often run at a profit, if they are well managed.

GSB has teamed up with the highly thought of and extremely

Justin Vermaak experienced David Raphael, best known from his days as the race caller in Hong Kong, where he called ‘The pride of South Africa’ London News to victory in the QE2 Cup. The very familiar ‘voice’ turned to bloodstock a few years ago and has done phenomenal things for his investors. On behalf of GSB, the dynamic Vermaak said that his team were privileged to be tapping into Raphael’s network and knowledge of Asia and Australasia to source horses.

“He will prove to be an asset in our recruitment drive which is essential to turning big profits for our investors”, he added.

With David and Justin working together, the right price will be calculated on each purchase

according to the projected levels of stake money and which divisions the horse could reasonably progress.

The GSB aim is to purchase already proven racehorses in Australasia, that have already shown ability when trialling or racing, removing the risk of buying unproven horses.

“This way, even if a horse does not live up to the heights we believe it can, the worst case scenario will be that it wins races in a lower class, still yielding profits, while of course the best case scenario turns into potential big money profits,” says Justin.

In closing, he said that the onestop shop concept offered took care of their clients’ international racing from A to Z. “I am fully confident that our Singapore venture will be profitable for all our owners - in fact I would go as far as say that any SA-based owners will have their SA racing portfolios paid for by their Singapore portfolios. So anybody who looks to run their racing ownership career as a business should seriously consider.

Join us for the ride!”

It was great having Marsh Shirtliff in town this past weekend.

A long time friend, it is wonderful spending time with him and his son Guy who has become one of my closest friends here in Singapore, writes Gareth Pepper.

ne tends not to bring up horses but that lasted exactly two minutes as we spoke about his current star Marinaresco, as well as the new crop of babies headed into and just arrived in their various stables in SA. Yes, we did sample some Red and had a good chuckle as well as watching the Sharks looking completely out of their depth on Saturday.

A gentleman of the highest order, he was not perturbed at all with his little galloper’s wide draw in Saturday’s Mike and Carol Bass Champions Cup at Greyville - and we all agreed that it would be the most fitting end to a training career for the legend that is Mike Bass .

As the changing of the Guard is upon him, if anyone deserves to end on such a high note, it is Mike.

I must admit that when moving to the Cape initially, I was at first intimidated by the likes of the Bass family, steeped in history and masters

of their trade. But from the onset both Mike and Carol always had time for me and by the time I had packed up and was ready to move, I was privileged enough to have them both attend my farewell.

Looking back I could kick myself for not spending more time with the Bass family, as Mike is a wealth of knowledge as we all know.

Hopefully I can meet up with them on my return home in the next couple of months and relive some of the amazing stories Mike and Carol were always willing to share with me.

If not, one thing I will be doing for sure is shouting, screaming and willing their horse to take out the race named in their honour , wearing silks that will forever be imprinted in my mind.

It would be fitting indeed!

Baby Champs

This week sees the finale of the Juvenile Championship here at Kranji. Compared to last year, we have a much bigger depth of talent.

It was all Super One last year (Now retired to stud in AUS) whereas this year the depth to the juvenile pool is chalk and cheese.

Lim’s Racer, the filly victorious over her talented rivals just over three weeks ago is in again, and although confirmed to have issues, she is all heart. Second on the day Caorunn, has a massive chance to turn the tables and the two Peter’s runners Skywalk and Siam Sapphire should improve dramatically.

Till next time.

Date Changes Ready To Run Sales CAPE Thoroughbred Sales have announced important changes to dates that will affect the two Ready To Run auctions later this year.

Due to the likely closure of the Durbanville racetrack for track repairs, the CTS Lanzerac Cape Ready To Run Sale will now be staged on Saturday 15 and Sunday 16 October 2016, while the CTS Ready To Run Sale in Johannesburg will move on by roughly a month to Thursday 24 and Friday 25 November, 2016.

At this stage the scheduled dates for the Ready To Run races remain unchanged.

Adrian Todd, MD of CTS, commented: “With an improved Durbanville facility, the end result will be for the benefit of racing as a whole.”

Good Do Something! Would, Should, Time To Could Be Alive Glorious Goodwood was famously described by one king as “a garden party with racing tacked on.” For two centuries, the cream of high society has flocked to Sussex Downs to celebrate a quintessentially English affair - the end of the summer social season. The festival in southern England, which started on Tuesday and ends Saturday, bookends a period featuring prestigious society events such as Chelsea Flower Week, the Henley rowing regatta and the Wimbledon tennis championships, among others.

Out Of The Woods?

Trainer Sean Woods will seek legal advice on potential avenues of action to regain his Hong Kong licence after show cause and appeal hearings which he described as “sabotaged by the Jockey Club executive management” and an “unsavoury” process. Woods was given the boot based on performance criteria. He said: “Both hearings were sabotaged by the executive management of the club, which infiltrated the show cause hearing as an aggressor, with lawyers, arguing why I should not have a licence, and did so again at the appeal. I do want to say I have no issue with the Board of Stewards of the club and I sympathise with them as they have been placed in a very difficult position by their management.”

Fighting In Public

In Australia, Victorian racing minister Martin Pakula says he wants to get the state’s administrators together to thrash out issues facing the industry.

Last week chief steward Terry Bailey and Melbourne Racing Club chief executive Brodie Arnhold were called to Racing Victoria headquarters after a war of words played out in the media. Pakula said it was important for all groups to get together to address the industry’s challenges and not to play out their differences in the

public domain.

The final Kimberley meeting of the term ended tamely after the fifth race on Monday in freezing weather conditions. Trainer Cliffie Miller, who enjoyed the distinction of saddling the last winner of the season, called on Phumelela to sort out the oncourse presenter’s area, saying that he would not work in those conditions. “Stop wasting money and come and sort this out,” he suggested of the interview area, which is exposed to the elements. Let’s see if something happens by next Saturday.

Neighbours Unite Two Phillipi trainers are set to join forces. Riaan van Reenen confirmed the arrangement to Racegoer’s Michael Clower, saying: “Carl Burger is going to need help – and what are friends for if you are not there for them when they need you?” Burger, who had a quadruple heart bypass operation in Cape Town’s Vincent Pallotti Hospital a fortnight ago, had his left leg amputated below the knee last Thursday.

The hullabaloo over the outcome of Saturday’s Scottsville sixth race objection has demonstrated the lack of understanding of the rules. Sylvester The Cat ended up pipping the Azzie horse Arctica. Stipe Shaun Parker said: “We considered the evidence and we are of the view that Arctica did not lose the race as a result of the actions of the winner, hence the result stood.” The rule clearly states that the Stipes must be satisfied that, but for the interference, the runner-up would have beaten the winner. The world ‘would’ is definitive – so if there is any shadow of doubt, they have to rule in favour of the winner retaining the race. Which they did. Correctly, in our opinion.

Shergar Trippi Cup On Track Apprentice Josephine Gordon will compete in the Dubai Duty Free Shergar Cup for the first time after she was called up as a replacement for the luckless Cathy Gannon.

Organisers waited to see if Gannon, who missed last year’s event too because of injury, could return to full fitness from a foot injury in time for the August 6 fixture. Gordon, who has ridden 43 winners in 2016, will join Emma-Jayne Wilson and Hayley Turner, two stalwarts of the event, in the girls team. Turner is coming out of retirement for the occasion. Our own Gavin Lerena will also be competing.

Drakenstein Stud’s resident sire Trippi, who is on course to record his first ever General Sires title in South Africa, had yet another good weekend double recently. His son Gregorian Chant scored a fluent win at Scottsville on Saturday, and the following day, his daughter San Paolo got off the mark when winning by three lengths at Turffontein. Gregorian Chant was Trippi’s tenth juvenile winner this season.

Missing

The search for Australian trainer Bindi Cheers continued after police failed to locate any sign of the missing Taree trainer on Monday. Cheers went missing while driving home from Sunday’s Hawkesbury meeting.

The Maitland Mercury reported that her horses were found at a petrol station. It is understood the well-known horsewoman became upset with stewards at Hawkesbury when Dolphin Tale was scratched after he hit his head on the barriers.

Congratulations to Sporting Post resident form analyst Mark McGillewie, who was a narrowly beaten runner-up from 32 entries in the recent SA Masters Snooker Championships.

“After winning the 1st frame I was ahead and had my opponent snookered in the 2nd frame with the option of keeping him snookered or going for a pot to win the frame. Wrong decision as I missed the vital pot and he ended up winning that frame,” said Mark, who vowed to come back stronger in 2017.

Racing Victoria and Racing NSW stewards will not grant consent for licensed jockeys to participate in the digital form service Ride Guide.

ide Guide, a programme designed by media company Unscriptd, was launched a fortnight ago at a Caulfield meeting on the Ladbrokes website, and is available only to Ladbrokes customers.

Ride Guide pays riders to give their opinions on their mounts at specific meetings, but was flagged by stewards as posing problems with integrity and financial arrangements. Both sides met at RV headquarters last Tuesday to discuss the potential problems, and the stewards announced on Thursday jockeys would not be permitted to participate. Australian Jockeys’ Association General Manager Des O’Keeffe expressed disappointment with the decision, telling Racing.com, “today’s reaction shows us that, as an industry, we are well behind other sports in embracing important opportunities to increase our appeal and exposure.”

He added, “I left Tuesday’s meeting confident that Unscriptd had successfully addressed all concerns and that our jockeys would be able to continue to promote our sport in a fully professional way that met all integrity obligations.

“That not being the case, it makes me wonder what else is going on in the world of racing politics that has led us to where we find ourselves today.

“At a number of meetings between industry officials and those behind Ride Guide, the concept had been embraced and endorsed by industry regulators, so it was pretty stunning to hear so many concerns raised after the launch last week.”

O’Keeffe said the AJA and Unscriptd are calling on officials to re-engage in an attempt to work through the issues with Ride Guide, and he said legal action is also a possibility.

Breeders’ Cup Turf The Target

I

T

Champion South African owners Ingrid and Markus Jooste have enjoyed another remarkable season and after their historic Gr1 Vodacom Durban July victory of three weeks ago, they have taken another step closer to their dream of winning one of the world’s great races.

he Aidan OBrientrained Douglas Macarthur lived up to his pedigree and sale price when taking out the Frank Conroy EBF Maiden at Leopardstown last Thursday.

He was a runaway winner after a quiet start on debut.

The son of Galileo out of the money spinning Green Desert mare Alluring Park is a full-brother to the Gr1 Oaks winner Was and out of a sister to the Gr1 Derby winner New Approach – the sire of this term’s SA Champions Season Gr2 Drill Hall Stakes winner, New Predator. In winning his maiden for owners Markus Jooste, Michael Tabor, Derrick Smith and Mrs Sue Magnier, Douglas Macarthur collected

Douglas Macarthur

49,489 Euros made up of a £25,000 October Book 1 Bonus, prizemoney of 10,147 Euros and a Plus 10 Bonus of 9,375 Euros.

The handsome winner was bought at Book 1 of the Tattersalls October Yearling Sale for 1,250,000 guineas

by MV Magnier from the draft of Lodge Park Stud.

Douglas Macarthur is set to be aimed next at the Beresford or Golden Fleece Stakes and his victory propelled him to the top of betting for the 2017 Derby with prices as short as 12/1.

The greatest jockeys can sense and seize an opportunity a fraction of a second before their opponents, and Ryan Moore did so to decisive effect on Saturday to steer Highland Reel to a one-and-aquarter length victory in the Gr1 King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot.

t took 149 seconds to complete the one-andhalf miles and Moore had the race in his grasp from the first stride, as he sent Highland Reel straight into the lead.

Had Postponed, last year’s winner, not been ruled out earlier in the week, he would have had a pacemaker in the race but, in his absence, Moore grabbed the initiative and squeezed a little tighter with every furlong that passed.

Advantage With more than a mile to run, Moore’s rivals allowed him to build a five-length lead, and while the gap closed as Highland Reel’s rider gave him time to catch his breath, he was guaranteed the first run in the straight and only Wings Of Desire, the sole three-year-old in the race, offered any hint of a threat in the final quarter-mile.

Dartmouth, attempting to give the Queen her second winner in the race named after her parents, was third, ahead of Sir Isaac Newton and Erupt.

“It was just an option [to make the running] but I didn’t know how it was going to play out,” Moore said. “There were a couple that could be ridden forward. He hit the gates well, landed in front and everyone wanted to get a lead.

“The ground was against him last time [when second to Dartmouth in the Hardwicke Stakes] and it was his first run off the back of Hong Kong [in April]. He was entitled to come on for it and quick ground is very important to him.”

Likes It Fast Aidan O’Brien, who has now won the King George four times, expects Highland Reel to be aimed towards the Breeders’ Cup Turf at Santa Anita in

November, on what seems sure to be fast ground. “He has pace, he loves it fast and he can go anywhere over a mile and a quarter or a mile and a half,” O’Brien said. “He could go to the Breeders’ Cup, or Australia or Hong Kong, he has a lot of options. We knew he wouldn’t mind making the running, he killed them in the Secretariat [Stakes at Arlington Park last August] making the running.

“It was some run last time on soft ground, he goes on it but he’s not a soft ground horse.

At a mile and a half, he’s very strong tactically.”

Highland Reel was cut to around 6-1 for the Breeders’ Cup Turf and can also be backed at 16-1 for the International Stakes at York next month but US Army Ranger, the runner-up behind Harzand in the Derby, seems more likely to represent O’Brien’s stable in that race. www.theguardian.com

Global Players For Cape Summer Leading international industry players will attend the International Thoroughbred Breeders Federation meeting in Cape Town in January 2017.

THE International Thoroughbred Breeders Federation is the global body of thoroughbred breeders. It was founded in 1950 and is growing in stature and influence – as shown when it succesfully lobbied to overturn the IATA rule on travel of pregnant mares and is also in the process of gaining observer status at the OIE. The Federation meets every 18 months and it will be exciting news and a boost for the sport that South Africa will act as a host in the midst of the Cape Summer Of Champions Season.

The conference itself will be over three days including two days of open veterinary forum – Dr Des Leadon is putting together a very exciting

programme of topics and speakers, which will be finalised shortly. It represents an opportunity to meet highly influential people from all over the world and for our own stakeholders and members to network and exchange ideas and information.

There are also opportunities for sponsors to become involved. Such is the stature of the speakers, the programme, the delegates and international exposure that this event really does offer great rewards for sponsors.

Susan Rowett (susan@varsfontein.co.za) and Dr Bennie van der Merwe (namaquas@intekom. co.za) are happy to field any enquiries – please feel free to drop them a mail.

Fair Eva kept her unbeaten record intact with a hugely impressive display in the hands of Frankie Dettori to win the Gr3 Princess Margaret Juddmonte Stakes at Ascot on Saturday.

he daughter of Frankel made a big impression on her racecourse debut at Haydock last month and the subsequent victories of both the second, Nations Alexander, and the third, Miss Infinity, confirmed her place as ante-post favourite for next year’s 1000 Guineas.

Roger Charlton’s filly was the 4/6 favourite stepped up to Group Three level in the hands of Frankie Dettori and those who took the prohibitive odds had few worries throughout the six-furlong heat.

Dettori cut a confident figure in the saddle, with the popular Italian still motionless heading inside the final two furlongs.

Once asked to extend, Fair Eva displayed a sublime change of gear to leave the rest of the field trailing in her wake and she only had to be pushed out to score by four lengths – providing Frankel with his first Pattern-race success as a stallion.

Top Gear

Dettori said: “She’s a very, very good filly.

“It took her 50 yards to get into top gear, but once she got into top gear at the furlong marker she put four lengths on the field.

“It’s only her second run, so she’s a work in progress.

“When the penny dropped she was very exciting.”

Charlton said: “I’m so pleased for Prince Khalid (Abdullah, owner). He bred a great

racehorse in Frankel. It brought a lot of people into racing and it’s just tremendous that his progeny are doing so well.

“That was a huge performance, I thought.

She’s got that very professional way about her, she’s a great walker and a great mover.

“Sometimes people say chestnut fillies can get a bit hot and bothered, but this filly has always been really good. She’s a charming character to deal with and goes about her business like a real pro.

“Frankie doesn’t do many flying dismounts for me, but it’s nice to have one!

“I think it’s important to talk to the connections first (before making plans). She is entered in the Moyglare (Curragh, September 11). She clearly will get seven furlongs and hopefully a mile in due course.

“The Moyglare would come into the reckoning, I think, but we’ll see.”

Exciting

Prince Khalid’s racing manager Teddy Grimthorpe said the Sky Bet Lowther Stakes at York next month could also be “an option” for Fair Eva. He said: “We had huge expectations for her – it’s so exciting. Form is one thing, class is another, and she really showed that.

“The Lowther would be an option, we’d also look at something like the Moyglare. We’ll find her a schedule that makes her the best that she can be.” www.sportinglife.com

Kingdom Of The Cat

O

The legacy of the late, great US sire, Storm Cat, has been felt the world over. Current representatives of this potent stallion include triple US Champion Sire, Giant’s Causeway, his son, Shamardal, and grandson, Lope De Vega.

ne can but wonder what Storm Cat’s tragically ill-fated grandson, Scat Daddy (Johannesburg) might have achieved in a longer innings at stud.

Not only is Scat Daddy sire of Saturday’s Gr1 Diana Stakes winner, Dacita, but he was responsible for a rare 2yo Group double at Royal Ascot earlier this year –his son, Caravaggio winning the Gr2 Coventry Stakes and daughter, Lady Aurelia taking the Gr2 Queen Mary Stakes.

Storm Cat’s influence on the breed, however, is not restricted to his sons and grandsons.

The son of Storm Bird (himself an outstanding broodmare sire) is an increasingly dominant broodmare sire. Storm Cat, who currently ranks second on this year’s Leading Broodmare Sires list in North America, is damsire of more than 220 stakes winners to date, with his

2016 stakes winners including Gr1 Dubai Turf hero, Real Steel.

Deep Impact

The latter is a son of Japanese sire, Deep Impact (Sunday Silence), who has fared extremely well when mated to daughters of Storm Cat. To date, the Deep Impact/Storm Cat cross has produced five Gr1 winners – including Real Steel, Japanese Derby winner, Kizuna, and the world’s top rated thoroughbred, A Shin Hikari, (winner of the 2016 Prix d’Ispahan by ten lengths.

Storm Cat’s son, Giant’s Causeway, is damsire of Deep Impact’s French classic winner, Beauty Parlour.

A dual US champion sire and multiple champion sire of 2yos, Storm Cat has been a magnificent broodmare sire with his daughters having produced such champions as Close Hatches (First Defence) Folklore (Tiznow), Mujahid (Danzig), Shared Belief (Candy

Ride) and Speightstown (Gone West) as well as numerous other Gr1 winners. His daughters have done particularly well with Candy Ride and Mineshaft, as well as with Unbridled line sires and A P Indy line descendants.

Storm Cat last headed the US Broodmare Sires list in 2014, when his daughters produced the earners of over $19 000 000.

Noble Tune

Storm Cat daughters are also set to make their mark in South Africa.

Not only is the former US champion the damsire of the very exciting young Rathmor Stud sire, Noble Tune (Unbridled’s Song), but Storm Cat also features as the broodmare sire of two young sires set to stand their first season in South Africa this season –Ascot Stud’s Global View (Galileo) and Klawervlei’s Coup De Grace (Tapit).

He is also damsire of Highlands

Family On Fire Klawervlei’s exciting young stallion Twice Over has well and truly been in the limelight of late, and two top class members of this superb family picked up major stakes victories this past weekend.

T

op class performer Time Test picked up the fourth Group win of his career when victorious in Saturday’s Gr2 Sky Bet York Stakes at York.

Coming off a third place finish in the G1 Coral-Eclipse, Time Test dug down deep to win the Group 2 contest by three parts of a length over Gr1 Ricoh Woodbine Mile hero Mondialiste, with another 3.25 lengths back to third place finisher Countermeasure.

The Roger Charlton trained colt is likely to be aimed at the Gr1 Juddmonte International (a race won by his close relative Twice Over in 2011).

Now a winner of six of just 11 outings, Time Test is out of Gr1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud winner Passage Of Time, who shares her

second dam Quandary with Twice Over.

Another from this top class family to land a British stakes race this weekend is Convey. Thought of as a Guineas prospect early on, Convey waltzed to victory in Sunday’s Listed Sky Bet Go-Racing-In-Yorkshire Festival Pomfret Stakes.

A son of Dansili (damsire of Time Test), Convey (who was picking up the first stakes win of his career) is out of the Mr Prospector mare Insinuate-whose dam is Gr1 Prix Du Moulin winner All At Sea. The latter’s dam Lost Virtue is also the third dam of four time Gr1 winner Twice Over, whose first crop are set to race in 2016-2017.

Twice Over (whose first crop sold up to R1 000 000 this year) has a single lot on offer at the 2016 CTS August Two-Year-Old Sale. This is a

Storm Cat

filly out of a five time winning half sister to Gr2 winner Blake, and this is the family of local sprint champion Laisserfaire and outstanding sire Centaine.

Another top class member of this family is current local star and Gr2 Golden Horseshoe winner Zodiac Ruler (Lot 55).

The former European champion also has four first crop two-year-olds on sale at the National Two Year Old Sale, and they include a colt whose dam is a half sister to July runner up Superwood (Lot 47), a filly out of a three parts sister to champions Enchantress and National Currency (Lot 56), a filly out of a Gr3 daughter of the great broodmare sire Elliodor (Lot 173), and a half brother to 3 stakes horses, whose dam is Gr3 winner Fire Tread (Lot 256). www.capebreeders.co.za

Farm’s veteran sire, Windrush, whose 2yos have enjoyed such a great year this season. Windrush has had just six 2yo runners this year, but they include Gr3 Kenilworth Fillies Nursery winner, Nordic Breeze and KZN Yearling Sale Million heroine, Lunar Rush.

Storm Cat daughters have already produced a number of top class stallions – none more so than WinStar Farm’s resident sire, Speightstown (Gone West).

Speightstown

A champion sprinter, out of a champion daughter of Storm Cat, Speightstown is currently one of North America’s leading sires, having over 70 stakes winners to his credit. Currently standing for $100 000 (he is one of just 11 sires currently active in North America with a fee of $100 000 plus), Speightstown has 13 individual Gr1 winners to his credit, and is clearly among the very best sire sons of the great Gone West.

Grade One winners produced

by Speightstown include sprint sensation, Rock Fall, Gr1 Jockey Club Gold Cup winner, Haynesfield, Gr1 winning fillies, Dance To Bristol and Lighthouse Bay, Gr1 Travers Stakes hero, Golden Ticket, and Poseidon’s Warrior.

The chestnut also rates as an exciting young sire of sires – with his sons, Munnings (I’m A Chatterbox) and Lord Shanakill (My Dream Boat) already having sired Grade/ Group 1 winners.

Another successful sire to have been produced from a Storm Cat mare is Three Chimneys’ resident sire, Sky Mesa (Pulpit).

An unbeaten Grade One winner at two, Sky Mesa sports a pedigree out of the very top drawer. Not only is

his G3 winning dam an own sister to Storm Cat’s top class sire son, Bernstein (his offspring include two Breeders’ Cup winners, including Tepin), but Sky Mesa’s fifth dam is Gr1 Suburban Handicap winner, Busanda, the dam of Horse Of The Year and top class sire and legendary broodmare sire, Buckpasser.

Captain Al

(Interestingly enough, this is also the family of former South African sire Complete Warrior –broodmare sire of champion SA sire, Captain Al).

To date, Sky Mesa (whose offspring have earned over $40 000 000) has been represented by over 50 stakes winners, headed by Gr1 winners, General Quarters and Sky Diva, as well as Canadian champion, Dynamic Sky. Former European Champion, Mujahid (a son of Danzig who is out of a Storm Cat mare) was champion sire in Italy last year, while the highly successful US sire, Jump Start (by A P Indy) is another out of a Storm Cat mare who has certainly enjoyed plenty of success at stud.

Himself a Gr1 2yo (the only season he raced), Jump Start has over 40 stakes winners to his creditincluding Gr1 Hollywood Gold Cup hero Rail Trip.

The Storm Cat maternal impact can also be seen in the current Leading First Crop Sires List in North America. He is broodmare sire of Bodemeister (Empire Maker) and Dialed In (Mineshaft) – a pair of Grade One winners who currently rank third and fifth respectively on this log.

Clearly, the influence of Storm Cat is a huge one – and it looks sure to grow still further (both here and abroad) in the coming years.

Quick Tour

Turffontein 17th July A maiden juvenile plate for the boys got proceedings underway on the old stand side track on Sunday and in what proved to be the fastest of the three 1160m races we saw a very comfortable victory for the favourite TOUR OF DUTY. Quick into stride Roy Magner’s charge soon put daylight between himself and his fourteen rivals and was three lengths clear going through the 400m. He kept on strongly from there onwards and went on to score without any anxious moments by four and a quarter.

They also ran three races over 1600m where fastest against the clock was HATFIELD SQUARE (reported lame near hind) when winning the MR69 Handicap.

Returning from a 20 week layoff here, the daughter of Mambo In Seattle raced in midfield for most of the journey.

She ran on stoutly over the final 400m and in a thrilling three way finish she got up late to score by a half.

The remaining two races were both run over 1400m where the friendless LIKE A BOSS recorded the fastest time. Priced up as the rank outsider at 40/1 in the MR84 Handicap, Candice Dawson’s charge was always handy.

He put his head in front approaching the 100m marker and with the rest well beaten he kept on strongly late to beat the staying on pacemaker CUMBERLAND by a length.

Preparing For The Mile Flamingo Park 18th July Four of the ten races in the Northern Cape on Monday were staged over 1400m where fastest against the clock was STONE PINE in the bill topping pinnacle stakes.

Freely available at 12/1, in this only his second outing following a ten month layoff, the 7yo son of Spectrum was soon up handy. He was ridden to lead early in the straight and went on to score with authority from the running on IL PALIO. Stone Pine won the non-black type Flamingo Mile last year and should now be cherry ripe if taking his place in that event again next time out.

The faster of the two 1800m races was the MR66 Handicap won by ARTIC ROUTE. Freely available at 50/1 on the off, the friendless Solskjaer mare was always handy. She ran on strongly at the business end of the race and won going away by a length and three quarters after striking the front 50m from home. If acting on the surface HARMSTON HERALD was always going to be a very serious runner in the MR68 Handicap over 1000m and so it proved to be. One of just two market leaders to arrive on the card, the former Eastern Cape campaigner raced in midfield during the early part of the race. He quickened best of all when given rein and won going away by a length from the always handy VARIETY SPIRIT. TITBITS Having only his second outing in Kimberley, JAMROCK ran on well from the rear when a two lengths third in the maiden plate over 1400m.

After running on from midfield, TEAGAN’S BOY cruised clear below the distance when winning the MR66 Handicap over 1400m going away.

Enjoying The Trip Vaal 19th July They raced on the inside track on Tuesday where surprisingly the faster of the two 2000m races was the MR65 Handicap (the other was a MR89 Handicap) won by the 8/1 shot AZA ARROW. On leaving the stalls it was the recent course and distance winner SHOT who elected to make the running, and he soon had the field well strung out. Indeed, Chris Erasmus’ charge raced sixth and was easily twelve lengths adrift. As they approached the 400m marker though, the early effort began to take its toll on the front runner and Aza Arrow was quickly thrust into contention. He ran on strongly in the closing stages of the race and got up late to beat the luckless ROYAL MASTER. Although always handy, the runner up was baulked for a run between the 200m-100m poles and only got going very late.

The only other distance to stage more than one race was 1200m and quickest home here was TRIP TO PARADISE in the MR66 Handicap.

Backed into 9/2 second favourite from 7/1 at the track, Coenie De Beer’s charge raced in midfield during the early part of the race. He was baulked for a run when making his move 300m out, but once seeing daylight he fairly flew. He struck the front 200m later and won going away by a length and a quarter.

Race three on the card was a maiden plate over 1800m and in what proved to be a false paced affair we saw a smart performance from the well supported outsider WOODY CAPE. Nibbled at all the way in to 9/1 from 25’s, the Silvano gelding was a little slow into stride, but despite that was soon up handy. He took up the running going through the 200m and although the favourite SILVER SAGE ran on strongly late, he won comfortably by two and a quarter.

TITBITS As short as even money at one point, the well supported newcomer PUBLIC PROTECTOR only really got going when the race was over when fourth in the maiden plate over 1200m.

Hearty Breakfast Greyville Favourite backers got off to a nice start on Wednesday afternoon when PERPETUAL SILENCE did the business in the opening maiden plate over 1200m. Returning from a nine month break here, the son of Trippi got away well when the gates opened and raced at the head of what quickly became a very strung out field. He was three lengths clear going through the 300m and that proved to be just enough to hold on from the gaining WINTER IS COMING by a half.

Four of the afternoon’s nine races were run over 1400m and considerably quicker than the other three was the MR66 Handicap in which BREAKFAST CLUB scored for the second time in just four outings. Always handy, Dennis Drier’s charge quickened nicely after having to switch 250m out and won well by two. ARGO’S JET ran

20th July on well from midfield to finish third in this race.

The faster of the two maiden plates over 1600m was the boy’s affair won by TRINITY HALL. Drawn wide and a little slow into stride to boot, Paul Gadsby’s charge was guarding the rear as the twelve runners turned for home.

Once in the straight though he quickened best of all and finding a dream run down the inside rail he got up late to deny the limited COURAGEOUS KING. TITBITS After losing two lengths at the start the poorly drawn SOUL OF SPAIN ran on well from the back when runner up in the MR70 Handicap over 1400m. She was racing off a mark 19 points below that of her former best here and should still be very well handicapped next time out.

Just The Tonic Vaal 21st July The new classic track staged Thursday’s newcomer GREEN PEPPER, Roy Magner’s meeting where three of the afternoon’s eight charge sat fifth for most of the journey. He quickened well 400m out and got the verdict by races were run over 1600m.

Stopping the clock in the fastest time in these 0,4 from the running on RAFA. Race six on the card was a MR75 Handicap was RAISE THE RED when landing the MR85 over 1200m and here we saw a smart Handicap.

He put his head in front going running as they approached the 100m marker through the 100m and kept on strongly in and won going away from the well-supported the closing stages of the race to beat the well HONOLUA BAY by two. supported BELENOS by three quarters.
