MR86 HANDICAP at Durbanville on Wednesday Three of the most exciting Cape 2yo’s of last term, each from a top local yard, add plenty of lustre and interest to the Durbanville midweek programme on Wednesday. The trio will face race action at the country course for the first time in their short careers.
A
n R82 000 MR 86 Handicap run over 1200m opens the popular Place Accumulator bet and while a field of seven may give punters a sense of comfort to find a banker, race readiness and fitness is an unknown and the trio will all have bigger fish to fry in the months ahead.
Suited
Justin Snaith’s Gr3 Cape Of Good Hope Nursery winner Sergeant Hardy has not seen action in 17 weeks. The son of Captain Al won 3 of his 5 starts and looks eminently suited to the quick 1200m here. Joey Ramsden and the connections of the quality Western Winter colt Attenborough will be keen to
exact revenge for their boy’s defeat by Sergeant Hardy in the nursery when he was beaten 1,50 lengths by the Snaith star. Attenborough subsequently ran a not disgraced fourth in the Langerman when only 2,10 lengths behind his Australianbred stablemate Table Bay. His rest of 13 weeks is a worry, but he is all class and will come out fighting fresh.
Needs More
Candice Bass-Robinson sends out the exciting Our Mate Art, who finished two lengths in front of Attenboroug in receipt of 3kgs in the Langerman. The son of Arti Schiller looks to be a fellow crying out for a mile and he may be run off his feet by the superior toe of his class opposition. Cont. p.2

It’s not often in the life of any stallion that you hear reports from longstanding breeders along the lines of “best foal I have ever had” and “I have just foaled a cracker by Jackson”.
