Gr1 CAPE GUINEAS at Kenilworth on Saturday

Disregard Table Bay’s below-par Selangor Cup showing as a rare off-day and suddenly Joey Ramsden’s top colt becomes a good thing for Saturday’s R1 million Gr1 Cape Guineas.

hey say it doesn’t wash making excuses for beaten horses. Maybe that holds true nine times out of ten - but there are always exceptions – especially in this game. And we are inclined to dig deep to find a reason to give the emphatic Cape Classic winner a chance to redeem his massive reputation. Table Bay came of age – so every man and his dog thought anyway – with a sensational score in the Cape Classic at end October. The win had seasoned veterans labelling him the next big thing, with comparisons with some big names of the past from the top yard. Next time out over 200m further, he fluffed his lines with that forgettable Selangor Cup third behind Gold Standard and Edict Of Nantes. On Saturday he comes in rated head and shoulders above his fifteen rivals. Marcus is

back aboard and he has a midfield draw – no excuses for a rip-roaring redemption!

Hot Combo

If there is anything to beat Table Bay, it could well be the Selangor winner Gold Standard, who taught us not to underestimate PE form last time. The son of Trippi hails from a hot jockey-trainer combo and was impressive when winning the Gr2 mile. He is likely to be a serious Derby candidate but would not be winning this out of turn. One of five runners to carry the Mayfair Speculators silks here, Edict Of Nantes was just 0,40 lengths off Gold Standard and 2,25 lengths ahead of Table Bay in the Selangor and was running on strongly at the business end. He was another well beaten by Table Bay in the Cape Classic and has the worst of the draw to contend with on Saturday.

Heavenly Horse

Mike de Kock has whittled down his 2016 Cape Guineas bid to just Heavenly Blue – an exciting son of Snitzel. While drawn very wide, the grey looks set to relish the long run-in and after two good seconds in the Graham Beck Stakes (behind Doosra) and the Dingaans, will come in fit. His conqueror in the Dingaans won’t make things easy though. Summer Cup King Geoff Woodruff ’s Singapore Sling is another having his first Cape run and Gavin Lerena takes over the controls from Chase Maujean. The son of Philanthropist is another likely to enjoy the summer course straight. KZN hopefuls Gunner and Hack Green are jointly rated nearest to Table Bay. Both are well drawn and capable, but will need to raise their game in this league after quiet preps in the admittedly sharp, Gr2 Cape Merchants.

Snaith Duo

A leading Cape racing stable has a vacancy for a motivated and disciplined self-starter to commence duties early in 2017. This opportunity offers the right individual the scope to grow and develop in a professional environment. A minimum of three years’ experience in a racing related environment would be an advantage.

58.0 ( 4) 1/1 58.0 ( 7) 40/1 58.0 ( 3) 13/2

Justin Snaith’s pair of Bishop’s Bounty and Zodiac Ruler will prove competitive on best form and it is of some interest that Piere Strydom switches from the former to the latter. They both ran in the Lanzerac Ready To Run Stakes where Bishop’s Bounty (with Strydom in the saddle) finished 3,10 lengths ahead of Zodiac Ruler. Both are highly thought of 3yo’s, and with the better draw in his favour, Bishop’s Bounty may well be the pick – whatever Striker’s thought processes may have been. William Longsword has always enjoyed something of a reputation and it was no surprise to see him supplemented after clock-ing up his fourth win from 6 starts last time. The son of Captain Al has

beaten little of note and was well beaten by Gold Standard in the Selangor. That said, if he can overcome his awful draw, he can challenge for the cheques.

Champion

Sean Tarry has enjoyed a good Cape summer so far and he saddles the Visionaire colt Africa Rising, who finally cracks a decent draw. He ran on steadily for a 3,60 lengths finish behind stablemate Safe Harbour at his Cape debut in the Lanzerac Ready To Run Stakes and looks set to improve over the extra 200m. Boom Dynasty colt Craven gives the pair of trainer Brett Crawford and jockey Bernard Fayd’herbe an opportunity to repeat their 2013 success with the overseas based, Elusive Gold. The Avontuur-bred Craven has started at short odds at all his four starts and atoned last time for an inexplicable slump at his third start, with a smooth win beating Dancer 2,50 lengths in an MR 73 Handicap. He is well drawn and gets a big chance to show us how good he is.

Guineas First

Local hope Elevated represents a first Cape Guineas runner for Riaan Van Reenen and Carl Burger. The son of Elusive Fort has run five seconds on the trot – including a well beaten 4 lengths by Table Bay in the Cape Classic. The Favour Stud-bred gelding has not been favoured by the draw gods, but looks likely to relish the summer course. Pacific Spirit is the only PE raider in the field and certainly warrants the travel costs outlay based on his good form in his five starts. While history is not in his favour, he has run on smartly

at all of his starts – winning three of them, and showing that he stays the mile when narrowly beaten by Cape raider King Of The Rally at his most recent Fairview start. The son of Sail From Seattle will be ridden by Karl Zechner and could have any amount of improvement to come at his first start on a left-handed track.

Right Path

Elusive Path is the second of the Marshall runners. This son of Pathfork was well beaten by Table Bay in the Cape Classic and looks well held by the Ramsden star. He then caught the eye with a decent forward showing in the Lanzerac Ready To Run Stakes when prominent for a long way and beaten only 1,05 lengths by the filly, Safe Harbour. That may not be Guineas winning form on the face of it, but he is worth including in quartets. Table Bay’s stablemate A New Dawn finished just a half length behind him in the Selangor Cup and has done little wrong in his four runs to date.

Rematch

One swallow doesn’t make a summer. We are going to take the Selangor Cup effort as a rare off-day performance from Table Bay. He won’t have things easy, but the rematch between him and Gold Standard will make for a moutwatering sub-plot in a race where Heavenly Blue, Singapore Sling and Craven could easily spoil the party. And it doesn’t end there, with improvement likely from those waiting in the wings.

Gr2 PREMIER TROPHY at Kenilworth on Saturday

Trainer Mike de Kock has sidestepped the Cape Guineas with his smart 3yo Bold Rex, opting rather to take on what looks to be a very beatable bunch of his elders in the R400 000 Gr2 Premier Trophy at Kenilworth on Saturday.

his 1800m contest often hosts a whole bunch of Met entries, but the eight horse field bucks the trend for the 2016 renewal, with only three on the big race entry list so far. De Kock’s Bold Silvano gelding Bold Rex is one of those and the Ascot Studbred galloper looks to be a youngster going in the right direction.

Conditions

The Premier Trophy sees 3yo’s carrying a base 51kgs, 4yo’s 57,5kgs and 5yo’s and older 58kgs. Winners of a Gr1 race get a 2kg penalty, while a Gr2 success incurs a 1kg premium. A winner of 4 of his ten starts, Bold Rex has run two top-class feature places. These include a meritorious third to Bezanova in an admittedly false-run Victory Moon Stakes. Bold Rex emerged from that with a 101 rating – the maximum 6 point penalty he could get in terms of the race conditions. It was a cracking effort and Bold Rex actually ran closer to a 108, according to the official handicapper. He then came out and ran his usual honest race (with a possible stamina question) when staying on for third and 4,35 lengths back in the Dingaans. He is very fit and if he adapts to the left-handed course, he strikes us as a massive contender for top honours. Joey Ramsden’s older St Tropez returns to his original home-base after a tough KZN and Joburg campaign that

yielded little. Often fancied, he is a horse that has shown flashes of decent ability – but has seldom delivered. The son of Silvano was beaten 9,40 lengths in the Summer Cup and he needs to show a little more to have us including him again.

On The Trail

Candice Bass-Robinson has a pair in the race, with the 4yo Icy Trail looking the scopier. The son of Go Deputy has won his last two starts beating the talented Prince Of Wales on both occasions. Those were pure handicaps and the 4kg swing in favour of Prince Of Wales could be a bridge too far for Icy Trail on Saturday. But he is a fit horse who has continued to strengthen and improve, and could be equal to the challenge. His stablemate, the disappointing Helderberg Blue has his third dip at winning this race. He ran second to Dynamic in 2014 and then third behind stablemate Paterfamilias last year. The son of Jet Master

has never lived up to early expectations and ran a poor race when not persevered with in the Green Point Stakes when trailed off behind Legal Eagle. He is likely being aimed at the Urban Honey Stayers on Sun Met day.

Snaith Quartet

Justin Snaith saddles the rest – a whole 50% of the field with four runners carrying the top yard’s banner. S’manga Khumalo takes the reins on the very consistent Prince Of Wales, who has come up through the handicaps with good credentials over the past six months. He has a solid turn of foot and was unlucky to bump the rampant Icy Trail at his last two starts. We have already alluded to the weight swing in Prince Of Wales’ favour and he must go close to picking up his first feature success. Topweight Ovidio will be ridden by Piere Strydom, but looks hard-pressed to take these on over this trip. The son of Danehill Dancer was scratched with an elevated temperature from his scheduled last start in the Kenilworth Cup and this looks to be a prep for the Met day staying race. The now 7yo Dynamic beat Helderberg Blue to win this race in 2014 – and has not won a race since. The son of Dynasty is capable on his day, but his recent form is hardly encouraging. Krambambuli has not won a race in over 14 months but has produced sufficient decent perfomances to give him a

shout here. The son of Black Minnaloushe ran on well at his penultimate start for a 1,75 length fourth behind Nebula in the Gr3 Algoa Cup, but never quickened last time when a 9,05 length last to Whisky Baron.

Pace

The pace could play a role as it often does down in Cape Town. But with two yards holding the ascendancy in numbers and preferring a pace, it

should be a true-run affair. We are siding with the fit De Kock raider Bold Rex – if he stays - to win this and secure his Met berth. Prince Of Wales and the enigmatic St Tropez could be next best.

Gr3 VICTRESS STAKES at Kenilworth on Saturday

The inclusion of Sean Tarry’s recent Gr3 Fillies Mile runner-up Tambalang in Saturday’s R250 000 Gr3 Victress Stakes line-up could give the locals something to think about. The daughter of Go Deputy is the only visitor and lone 3yo in a competitive field.

eam Tarry are never scared to travel and have already chalked up some decent successes in the Cape Summer Of Champions. The move to take on the older established locals with the lightly raced Tambalang is a vote of confidence and also a test of her ability - and the outcome could be interesting.

Weights

The weights for the 1800m fillies and mares feature is structured on the basis that 4yo’s and older carry 57 kgs, while the 3yo’s carry a base of 50,5 kgs. The older group are subject to penalties of 3kgs for a Gr1 win, 2kgs for a Gr2 success and 1kg for a Gr3. Last year’s runner-up Harlem Shake has her second run of the season and carries top weight of 60kgs with regular rider Heavelon van der Hoven in the saddle. The Gr3 Final Fling Stakes winner is a gutsy and aggressive racer who is perfectly distance suited and will strip fitter after her end November prep over 1400m.

Smart Sort

Candice Bass-Robinson saddles the smart Silvano filly Nightingale, who has also had one prep. She acquitted herself with honour during the SA Champions Season

when placed in the Gr1 Woolavington 2000 and the Gr2 Gold Bracelet. Her form to the top class Bela-Bela underscores Nightingale’s ability and this course and distance winner looks set for a big effort. Mike Robinson will be thrilled to have pulled a pole position draw for his Royal Air Force filly, Goodtime Gal. This consistent placer will not lack in the fitness department with four excellent lead up runs, that included a gallant second in the Gr3 Diana Stakes.

Snaith Trio

Justin Snaith has a strong hand with his trio. Fear Not has changed stables from Adam Marcus and has her third run for Snaith. The daughter of Ideal World ran a cracking second to Icy Fire last time and now enjoys a 1,5kg pull for a 0,30 length beating. She is always thereabouts. The Listed Settlers Trophy winner Francia has performed with distinction in decent male company and has maintained consistent form. The only question mark against the daughter of Dynasty is that she would prefer 200m further – but runs fresh and could be a factor with Anton Marcus up. Piere Strydom rides another Dynasty 4yo in the Foster’s Qing. This talented galloper won

Gr3 CAPE SUMMER STAYERS HANDICAP at Kenilworth on Saturday

four on the trot in her 3yo term but has not quite been as effective recently. She can be monitored for a form turnaround.

Burn The Turf

The beautifully-bred Icy Fire has won her last two after chasing Harlem Shake home in the Final Fling Stakes. The Brett Crawford filly meets Puller’s topweight on a kilo better terms for a 1,75 length beating. Andre Nel’s Quine has won 4 of her 6 starts and steps up to the 1800m for her first big test. If the daughter of Querari sees out the trip, she must go into permutations. The stable were victorious last year with Ma Choix. Promising 2yo Anglet has not been far off at her two starts as a 3yo. She looked to be the sort looking for a trip and the 2015 Cape Fillies Guineas placer could bounce back. The Marshall pair of Tonya and Adorado may have a bit to do on paper, but are both fit and well drawn – and a back end of the quartets looks a possibility.

Competitive

This is a very competitive race with Nightingale and Goodtime Gal standing out, against the background of the Tarry threat in Tambalang. Harlem Shake and the improving Icy Fire look next best.

At last. A staying race with a double digit subscription. That’s a rarity down Kenilworth way and the R250 000 Gr3 Cape Summer Stayers Handicap could make for one of the most interesting contests of the afternoon. he honour roll shows that no trainer has dominated this race down the years with everybody getting their chance for glory.

Class Stayer

Dean Kannemeyer is one man keen to reverse that trend. He saddled Blake and subsequent Gold Cup winner In Writing to win in 2011 and 2012 respectively, and it is no secret that he rates both of his runners as class stayers on their day. His Gr3 Track & Ball Derby winner Cape Speed has had one fair prep since finishing unplaced in the Gold Cup at the end of last term. The Sun Met entry patently needed the run when chasing the free striding Kilrain home in an MR 95 Handicap and he will have come on with that run. The son of Ideal World’s formline of 5 wins and 2 places from his 11 starts stands out against his opposition and he will be very effective over the trip. His Gr3 Lonsdale Stirrup Cup winning stablemate Balance Sheet has developed a bad habit at the starting stalls and was never in his 1400m prep last time. This son of Silvano stays well though and if reproducing his better form (as when chasing Wild One home in the 2015 Gold Cup) would have a chance of upsetting the apple-cart, even under top weight.

Cup Score Mike de Kock’s Smart Mart won a hard fought tussle in the Listed Kenilworth Cup last time and will have the advantage amongst the visiting contingent of having seen the track. The handicapper has been kind to the son of Mambo In Seattle who comes in with a handy galloping weight and must go very close again. Geoff Woodruff’s Gr2 Gold Bowl winner Arch Rival has his first run in the Cape.

The son of A P Arrow ran slightly below par in the Listed Java Handicap on Charity Mile day, but is a dogged stayer with a touch of class – his victory over subsequent Gold Cup winner Enaad being testament to that.

Snaith Seeks Double Justin Snaith, who won this last year with Current Event, has a trio in the race. Ultimate Dollar has drawn wide and will be building his confidence back at home after a loss of form following his top-class Tabgold 2200 in 2015. A class sort who tries the 2500m for the first time, he could challenge. The East Cape Derby winner Captain Splendid looks the most likely of the Snaith attack. That said, he failed to kick in the Kenilworth Cup and looks held by Smart Mart on that showing. Ignoring that, the son of Captain Al is drawn well, gets the services of Piere Strydom and has no fitness issues. His year older stablemate Arezzo actually finished 2,50 lengths ahead of him in the Kenilworth Cup and they meet on the same weight terms. The Go Deputy entire has registered his last two wins at Fairview and may be a place prospect at best. Adam Marcus’ Royal Badge is a classy son of Go Deputy whose form is probably not a genuine indicator of his true ability. Winless in just under a year, he ran a good race when beaten just 1,65 lengths by ruling Sun Met favourite Marinaresco in the Winter Classic in May. He tries serious ground and will be near peak fitness after two prep runs this term.

Marshall Duo Vaughan Marshall’s pair of Gothic and the past Gr2

Betting World 1900 winner Dynastic Power will have their supporters. The now 7yo Gothic is a decent stayer whose mental block in the finish has cost him a few first cheques. He has to be better than a three-time winner and will get every inch of the 2500m. Dynastic Power has battled to find his form since a sensational victory over subsequent Vodacom Durban July hero Power King in the 2015 Betting World 1900. The son of Dynasty comes off a six week break and reunites with his original pilot, Aldo Domeyer, who won the 2014 Gr3 Winter Guineas on him. He may be the upset potential in the field.

Her World Candice Bass-Robinson saddles My World and Three Balloons – both good stayers on their day. Three Balloons finished 0,75 lengths ahead of his stablemate in the Kenilworth Cup last time behind Smart Mart and there is little to choose between the two again. The ‘jockey-strike’ of the hot in-form Richard Fourie has us leaning towards My World, although both look to have a few lengths to find on the class in the race. Greg Ennion’s Roman Discent comes in at the base of the handicap. The son of Dynasty is fit and stays well but is in under sufferance and could be outclassed by the bigger hitters in a strong line-up.

Complex Staying handicaps are never simple to dissect. The proven stayers have a way of resurrecting their form and delivering on the day. Cape Speed oozes class and could regain his winning ways. He needs to get past the handily weighted Smart Mart, the lurker Royal Badge and the sometimes inconsistent Captain Splendid. It is not a straightforward closing leg of the Pick 6!

Donovan Dillon keeps Jo’s Bond going to hold Carry On Alice and Scandal

CROSS STAKES at Kenilworth last Saturday

Just a week after his son Search Party had gone end to end to win the Gr2 Cape Merchants down the Kenilworth straight, super sire Captain Al celebrated a repeat performance when his daughter Jo’s Bond did all the donkey work into the teeth of the South Easter to register a courageous victory in the R400 000 Gr2 Southern Cross Stakes.

he Klawervlei Stud-based Captain Al is enjoying another terrific season and after the previous Saturday’s Merchants 1st and 3rd finish, he went one better on the Western Cape Equine Trust raceday on Saturday with a cracking top two finish for himself and his home base, Klawervlei Stud. The ten strong field looked to be dominated by two Gr1 stars – last year’s winner Carry On Alice and the SA Fillies Sprint champion, Real Princess. But Justin Snaith and jockey Donovan Dillon were not going to be intimidated by

impossible tasks on paper. With Jo’s Bond easy to back at double figure odds after her lacklustre performance in the Listed Laisserfaire Stakes last time, and looking to have plenty to find at the weights, all the focus was on the top rated duo, with Carry On Alice going off at 15-10, despite her suspect fitness after a 27 week break. Donovan Dillon had Jo’s Bond out quickly as she led Rock On Baby, Varumba and Victoria Lavelle, with S’manga Khumalo sheltering Carry On Alice from the wind a few lengths off down the outside. Jo’s Bond hung on to her lead but looked

Hong Kong Records Broken

On The Up Records fell, new benchmarks were set and heroes were lauded at Sha Tin Racecourse on Sunday, at the annual HK$83 million LONGINES Hong Kong International Races.

vibrant and vocal crowd of 100,710 turned out to savour the four Group 1 races at the end-of-year showcase, generating an electric atmosphere. That figure was a new high for the event and 17.4% up on the previous year. Turnover for the 10-race card came in at HK$1.518 billion. “It’s the highest turnover ever for this day, and an increase of 4.7% on last year,” HKJC CEO Winfried Engelbrecht-Bresges said. “But the attendance was even more pleasing, with a record for the day of more than 100,000 people, combining Sha Tin and Happy Valley. “The reaction from our customers and racing fans was exceptional today,” Mr. EngelbrechtBresges added. And in the current era of internationalisation, the CEO was pleased to see commingling return a record for the day at HK$72.8 million. “Our commingling figure was an increase of more than 40% on last year, with a figure of over HK$72 million, which accounts for 4.8% of the day’s total turnover. This shows again that we think our strategy of world class racing, including beaming the races around the world, giving customers the opportunity to bet into the

largest per-race tote pools in the world, is the right strategy. “To give some context, 10 years ago, this meeting had turnover of just HK$930 million and a crowd of 56,000. Our commitment to excellence and to promoting the international element of the sport has clearly been wellreceived by our customers, both here in Hong Kong and around the world.” Japan’s champion trainer Noriyuki Hori became the first overseas handler to notch a double in one day at the LONGINES HKIR thanks to Satono Crown (Hong Kong Vase) and the brilliant Maurice (Hong Kong Cup), the first horse to win the Mile and then follow-up in the Cup since the races took on Group 1 status. “The performances of the horses on the track today were world class,” Mr. Engelbrecht-Bresges said. “If you look at Maurice in the Cup, it was a world champion’s performance. Anthony Kelly, the Hong Kong Jockey Club’s Executive Director, Racing Business and Operations, said: “On Wednesday evening at Happy Valley we had over 29,000 people in attendance, and we had more than HK$1.2 billion in turnover, so between four days in Hong Kong we’ve had 130,000 race goers and HK$2.8 billion in turnover on 19 races, so that speaks for itself.

dead and buried at the 350m as Carry On Alice stormed up the outside, with Scandal cutting a launch-pad down the middle. Superstar Carry On Alice tried her heart out but had no answers to the superior fitness of the leader who dug deep. With Donovan Dillon keeping her beautifully balanced, Jo’s Bond kept on resolutely to score her biggest success to date to hold off Carry On Alice by a half length in a time

of 59 secs. Recent SA 1000m record holder Scandal was relaxed early and finished very well for third, a further 0,40 lengths in arrears. Beach Goddess stuck to her station down the inside, but failed to produce her customary kick, holding on for fourth. Second favourite Real Princess was always outpaced and ran no better than a 3,65 lengths fifth. She seems better at 1200m. A R325 000 Cape Prem-

The winner is a genuine 1000m specialist – all her 7 wins achieved over the minimum trip. She also has 2 places from her 16 starts and took her stakes tally to R542 525. Carry On Alice must improve with the benefit of this run under the belt.

SPORTING POST • FriDAY 16th - SunDAY 18th December 2016

Hong Kong is the racing model that most look up to and regard as the ‘template’ for a successful racing jurisdiction. It has been a slow process, but they have had visionary leaders with a commitment to change and have been prepared to take a long-term view. The HKJC has always been admired for its turnover and the fact that they can make racing work as a business model, and their International racing festival and large purses have served to put them on the map and attract the world’s best - be it horses, jockeys or trainers. With their recent inclusion in Part 1 of the International Pattern or ‘Blue Book’ as one scribe aptly put it, they have truly arrived.

ith many of our horses, jockeys and trainers lured over there and all returning speaking glowingly of the experience, I have become increasingly interested in hong Kong and how and why they do things - and more specifically, how they do it so successfully. One of the most interesting things is that despite their perceived success, hong Kong is constantly striving to improve.

“I don’t want you to think like me, I just want you to think”

- Ayn Rand

This brings me neatly to Charles Faull’s philosophy of ‘know the game, love the game.” Steve haskin recently wrote a fantastic piece for the Bloodhorse on how he thinks women are the future of racing. This is because while most male racing fans get introduced to racing via a family member, most women get involved in the sport because they like and know and are passionate about horses and I thought that was pretty interesting. As I’ve written before, horse people tend to be fairly well versed on their subject, so it’s hard to fob them off with vague or poor service. When all is said and done, goods aren’t sold, they are bought, which implies that you need your customers to WANT to buy them. Therefore you need your customer to trust you and feel comfortable with you. There is a fantastic piece of marketing theory called Raving Fans by Ken Blanchard. In it, he states that generally speaking, customers are only satisfied because their expectations are so low and because no-one else is doing better. And as long as the service is no less mediocre than anything else on offer, you muddle along just fine. however, if you really want a thriving business, you have to provide such excellent service that you don’t simply have satisfied customers, you end up with raving fans.

Why I think this is possible for racing There is lots of doom and gloom about how the sport is becoming irrelevant, and we don’t appeal to the current generation, etc and I say hogwash. Two recent incidents lead me to this conclusion. The first was a rather fun blog posted by a (female) writer on an equestrian website called The Chronicle Of The horse, in which she describes taking a racehorse for a gallop. If you mention galloping a racehorse to any red-blooded horse person, the majority will respond with a wistful sigh and the words ‘bucket list’. It is something most people seem to put on

a pedestal as one of the most wonderful things in the universe. Isn’t that interesting? exhibit 2 is from when a local racing yard recently took a load of horses for a splash on Melkbos beach. A local photographer was on hand to shoot some pics and posted them on the Melkbos residents’ Facebook page. The photo went viral and given racing’s supposed terrible reputation, I followed the ensuing discussion with interest to see what would transpire. My first surprise was that all the commentary was positive - people were genuinely interested and excited to see racehorses on their local beach.

Customers are only satisfied because their expectations are so low and because noone else is doing better Secondly, they were mostly entirely unaware that most of our jockeys are part of their local community and that there are something approaching 1000 horses right under their noses at Milnerton training centre. however, therein lies opportunity. It is clear that there is interest from the layman in who we are and what we do from the horse / beauty / sporting perspective, but unless we come out and make ourselves visible, people don’t seem to know how to go about it. If you Google horse racing and South Africa, or even Cape Town, while you do get a choice of results, there are not many that tell you a little bit of the how and why and more importantly, how you can join in. Going back to hong Kong for a second - they have - amongst other things - one of the most advanced systems of providing comprehensive, up to date information on their horses, trainers, jockeys and all other relevant aspects of their racing. They have a great website, they are massively media friendly and they have got the hang of turning their athletes - be it human or equine - into stars down to a fine art by providing information. Masses of it. Meaning that people know (or know how to access) any bit of pertinent information they feel they want to know. Nothing is hidden. And based on providing that information, their customers feel secure and confident enough to wager their money.

How can we do this? Racing turnover comes from betting / wagering. I will repeat that – wagering, not gambling. The phrase ‘I bet you’ or ‘I’ll wager’

implies ‘I think’ and I think this is key. Racing is supposed to be ‘the brain game’. It is supposed to be an intellectual challenge whereby you study form and then make an informed decision as to what you think the outcome of the race might by and back up your opinion - if you so choose - by putting your money where your mouth is. I feel that this crucial element sometimes gets missed as we seem to sell / market racing to paraphrase Meghan Trainor as ‘all about that bet’. There is no problem with promoting the bet, but without relevant, pertinent information, cor-rectly interpreted and time-ously disseminated, wagering is reduced to gambling. Without the element of knowledge, we reduce our wonderful, interesting, colourful, intellectually challenging sport into the equivalent of throwing money into a capricious slot machine. The SP is a dedicated racing newspaper, so the likelihood is that our readers are already racing fans / converts. It is unlikely that ‘Joe Normal’ members of the public will pick one up out of curiosity or accident and have a leaf through. however, in terms of the mainstream newspapers - which the industry pays to have space in - your chances increase exponentially. It is also highly likely that racing fans might make use of the racing information and tips in publications such as the Racegoer and the free TAB sheet handed out at your friendly (?) tote. As the folks in charge of the sport are supposed to be the experts, our customers naturally depend on them for sound, reliable information. I’ll say it again - information – not tips. People want to be provided

with information and then left to make their own decisions. If we do not provide it, or as has happens fairly often - we provide incomplete or poor information, well, is it any wonder the public gets frustrated with us?

Getting better I think the first timer initiative is a good start. Of course, it is not a silver bullet, we are talking small steps in the right direction, but the important thing is that we are heading the right way. One of my constant frustrations is the traditional brain freeze that results from criticism. Of course no-one enjoys being criticized, but if we all sat around patting each other on the back all day, we’d never get anywhere. The point, which seems to get missed, is that criticism does not mean ‘you’re rubbish and should immediately cease what you’re doing (unless you really are truly awful). Criticism usually implies some sort of positive interest (or the critic wouldn’t have been there in the first place) and then suggestions or comments on things they don’t like. That doesn’t mean they don’t like the rest (although admittedly this vital point often gets missed), it simply means there are things they think would improve matters if they were changed. The best explanation I saw for this recently was a report on a recent clinic by the riding guru George Morris in which he explains to the audience that if you are having a problem with your horse, stopping the exercise generally does not solve the problem. You have to keep riding and fix it as you go along. Very similar to that criticism thing. Don’t stop, but do try and fix

the bits that can be improved. Martin Locke recently wrote about the Tellytrack offering and it was interesting that he picked up on a lack of pertinent, live pre-race information as well as parade ring and canter down footage. This is vital information for people sitting at home or in the Tote. Also, post race interviews – so often left until the replays late at night - are crucial as they often contain vital information and discussion about a specific horse that is available nowhere else. Unfortunately our post race interviews are usually flighted sometime between midnight and six, when most sensible people are tucked up in bed. So the best source of information is unavailable to our customers who probably have a 9-5 job and need some shut-eye. As I said earlier, when all is said and done, goods aren’t sold, they are bought. If we want people to give us their money, we need to give them a good reason. And if we want to create raving fans, we NeeD to keep collecting and disseminating information and we need to do it well – not just to the same level of mediocrity as the competition. Shoot for the stars and all that. We don’t necessarily need pedigree analysis, but the real, meaningful stuff - equipment changes, feed changes, working well at home, recovering from a virus, etc. But we need to provide this stuff in sufficient time for people to factor it into their equations. And we need the same level of info on ALL the runners otherwise the rest is meaningless. They say the best time to plant a tree was 10 years ago. The second best time is now.

SPORTING POST • FriDAY 16th - SunDAY 18th December 2016

Rocket Man For Noordhoek Twice Singapore Horse Of The Year Rocket Man is set to enjoy a deserved retirement in the equine friendly surrounds of trainer Mike Stewart’s ‘The Dunes’ training centre at Noordhoek on the Cape Peninsula.

ocket Man was honoured with an official retirement ceremony at the final Singapore meeting of the season on Sunday 3 December. The champion, who carried international owner Fred Crabbia’s famous black and red silks to 20 wins, five seconds and one fourth from 27 starts, stepped down with stakes earnings in excess of $6.7 million – the highest ever made by a local racehorse. A career highlight was undeniably his historic Gr1 Dubai Golden Shaheen (1200m) win, followed by the 2011 Gr1 KrisFlyer International Sprint (1200m) win, and a dead-heat with the John Moore-trained One World in the Gr2 Cathay Pacific Jockey Club Sprint (1200m) in Hong Kong in 2010. The handsome bay was ridden at all three international wins by Felix Coetzee, while his countrymen Robbie Fradd (eight wins) and Barend Vorster (seven wins) also had the pleasure of being associated with the star. Now an 11 yo, the son of Viscount was once ranked the world’s second-highest rated sprinter, behind top horses like Hong Kong’s Sacred Kingdom and Australia’s wonder mare Black Caviar. Four years after his last race, the most globally recognisable racing brand name to have come out of Singapore in the modern era was paraded in front of his adoring fans before the running of the Rocket Man Farewell Stakes, a $125 000 race over 1100m. With jockey Barend Vorster aboard, he was presented with a basket of carrots while 2000 black Rocket Man caps were handed out to fans. Trainer Patrick Shaw and his staff, including assistant-trainers Ricardo Le Grange and Jacci de Tert, were on hand to see their hero take his final bow. “It’s every trainer’s wish to have a horse like Rocket Man,” said Shaw, who himself is taking a 6 ½-month sabbatical from December 15, and will hand over to Le Grange in the interim. “I’m going through mixed emotions as I watch him say his goodbye. On one hand, I’m sad to see him go as he’s done so much for us. “But at the same time, he’s going to a lovely place on the beach in Cape Town where he will spend the rest of his retiring days. “My good friend and trainer Mike Stewart has a stabling facility there and has a small area on the side where he will stay. “My daughter is in Cape Town and will visit him often. I will be going up and down back home, and every time I go to Cape Town, I will drop by to see him.” Shaw said that Rocket Man’s welfare had always been his and Fred Crabbia’s No 1 priority. “It was a situation where I was always worried by his injury. You can’t always see it and we had to go on the vet’s advice,” he explained. Rocket Man has for the best part of his racing career been plagued by leg issues – first a condylar fracture to his offside cannon bone as a three-year-old and then a suspensory ligament injury to his nearside leg three years later, but as a sign of his bottomless courage, overcame them to continue racing at the highest level.

KZN Summer Challenge Series – The Finals The KZN Summer Challenge Series might be one of the best kept secrets in racing, but it is a great initiative designed to give the average handicapper in that province an opportunity to compete for larger stakes. The three 2016 finals were held in wet conditions at Scottsville on Sunday. With steady rain falling all day, it was pleasing to see the meeting manage to run 8 of the 9 carded races, with riders steering clear of the inside running rail in the last few events. Race 9 was abandoned. Three final races for a stake of R200 000 each were run over 1200m, 1600m and 1950m.

Turffontein In The Dark…

Night Time – Not The Right Time!

If night racing at Turffontein is fundamentally no good and draining industry funds, why are we persisting with it? This simple question is asked by multiple SA Champion Trainer Mike de Kock on www.mikedekockracing.com.

hey say lightning doesn’t strike twice in the same place, unless, of course, you happen to be in the vicinity of Turffontein Racecourse! We in Gauteng have had a number of meetings at the city track interrupted or partly abandoned this season due to lightning. The reasons for taking precautions against the mean Highveld blitzes are obvious, but the stipendiary stewards seem to have found a new ‘toy’ in the lightning detector. Sadly, like with reading races, they are still learning to interpret the lightning device. There seems to be no clear cut policy and it looks like we have another issue here for NHRA boss Lyndon Barends to deal with – goodness knows he’s had his share of problems to address over the last few months!

Let’s face a few facts…

In summer, bad weather in Johannesburg normally comes around in the late afternoon. When they do, the age-old Gauteng thunderstorms are known to happen after 3pm. As it stands these days, we have late starting times to our race programmes, 1pm or even 1:30 seem to be the norm. When the storms and lightning appear, invariably our race days are interrupted halfway through, just when punters have settled down and the exotic bets are gathering momentum.

ensuring that most race days are fully completed? Late starts is one issue, racing at night is another. Has the time not come for the racing industry to do away with night racing?

Attendance

On Charity Mile Day, for example, racegoers and a host of invited guests had to wait for almost an hour and a half for approaching lightning to blow over, and they could only have so many more snacks and drinks before boredom set in and some started leaving the racetrack. This happened before the feature race had been staged. Last Tuesday evening’s meeting at Turffontein had to be abandoned due to lightning after Race 5.

Turnover Lost

There are several more examples I can mention but the point is, during weather interruptions it is obvious that betting turnover is lost at the affected meetings. Punters lose their cool. Industry participants lose nomination fees, staff fees, travel costs and, to be frank, their tempers too! Are there any good reasons, whatsoever, for our race meetings to start as late as they are? Does it not make sense to start at 11.30 or 12pm, thereby almost

This season, night meetings were cut down to nine from last season’s 20 due to dwindling turnovers and dwindling attendance figures. And, naturally, lightning is an automatic risk at every night meeting. Night racing really has not been near as popular as expected since it moved from Newmarket some years ago. Back in 1996, when night racing was introduced as a novelty at the old Alberton track, we drew consistently big crowds and turnovers were more than good enough to sustain it. That, however, was a different era. When Newmarket closed down, a number of highprofile owners demanded that the lights be moved to Turffontein for night racing to continue and while Phumelela kept its word on the issue, the owners referred to have hardly raced in Gauteng in recent seasons. They’ve abandoned the ship. What we have now with night racing is nothing but sheer aggravation and inconvenience to horsemen and their staff.

Traffic

Late-afternoon traffic in Johannesburg is madness – getting horses and humans to the track from the training

centres is a mission on its own. After races most horses and grooms only get home around midnight, some have to be up again at 4am to start work. Staff and travel costs are higher, operational costs are higher too, it’s a tough night out there for officials, horses and handlers. Most importantly, we don’t get a fraction of the old Newmarket crowd at Turffontein. There is far less interest in the night events. Sponsors have never embraced the concept and we have it on good authority that, with moderate turnovers, night racing is being run at a loss. • A day race meeting normally yields close to R4,5million, a night meeting up to R1-milion less. • Ninety percent, yes 90% of off-course outlets close at 6pm. You read that right. • Around 75% of punters cannot place a wager after 7pm because they have no access to totalisators or online betting! Interest fades into the evening, and betting activities wane as a result.

Elite

Facts are facts, and in this case we have a Listed company losing money by trying to please a minute proportion of racing’s elite. Surely the time has come for Phumelela to re-consider the viability of night racing. It makes sense to cut losses, perhaps that’ll leave some more cash we can add to the stakes pot, please God? Night meetings seem to be working pretty well at Greyville, and there’s always been an opportunity to reintroduce the once-popular ‘twilight’ meetings held in the Cape several years ago. Upcountry, however, we have run into a brick wall.

Greyville Gets Thumbs Up

KZN Track Update

The Greyville turf is looking in magnificent shape at present and there are innovations afoot which aim to have it in as good condition during the winter months from now onward.

he city course’s turf track copped plenty of criticism during the last SA Champions Season, which takes place in the depth of winter in May, June and July. Gold Circle’s new Racing Executive Raf Sheik revealed the full ‘spring treatment’ given to Greyville every year would, from next season onward, take place in January and February. He pointed out currently that the treatment takes place nine months ahead of KZN’s main season, meaning the track is already worn by the time this world class three month festival

of racing begins. Furthermore, there are changing seasonal patterns all over the globe, including in Durban. January and February are now probably Durban’s two best months of the year for growth, as the climate during this period combines warmth with moisture. In future there will also be plenty of turf racing at Greyville after the SA Champions Season. Depending on the condition of the track, it will either be rested in August for up to five weeks, or turf racing will continue unabated at Greyville right through until the end of the year. Meanwhile, there is a plan

from next season onward to have two separate ‘spring treatments’ for Scottsville. Despite plenty of rain this past weekend, racing went ahead as planned. The aim is to have either the Inside or the Outside track open at any given time. This will ensure there is turf racing in KZN throughout the year. When the Scottsville Inside track is being treated, there will only be racing down the straight at Scottsville on the Outside track. In order to achieve the two separate Scottsville Spring Treatments, their pull-up areas will have to be separated.

Plans are in motion to achieve this. The Scottsville Spring Treatments will take place in and around the month of October every year. Sheik said the secret to the current top class condition of the Greyville turf track included bringing in expert advice during the Spring Treatment. Furthermore, torrential rain caused the cancellation of the earliest intended turf meeting, and this allowed the track an extra month of unhindered growth. Early next year there will be full turf meetings at Greyville on January 1, January 22 and February 19. Thereafter the track will be closed for six weeks in order to give it a “light treatment.” This should ensure it is in good shape for the 2017 SA Champions Season. www.goldcircle.co.za

SPORTING POST • FriDAY 16th - SunDAY 18th December 2016

Today the Guineas, Tomorrow the World Winners of the Cape Guineas have traditionally gone on to remarkable successes. Not just in South Africa, but also abroad, despite the major hurdles placed in front of those wanting to travel to far-away shores. Variety Club and Jay Peg have put South Africa firmly on the international map.

Added to success on the track, a high proportion of Cape Guineas winners went on to become stallions - some, like Captain Al, spectacularly so. And let’s not forget their dams, a group with a high proportion of Broodmare Of The Year winners.

emory is short. So just for fun, here’s a brief history of a decade of Cape Guineas heroes. They are shown with date, weight, draw, and odds – the latter suggesting that finding winners for the famous mile is quite predictable, most of the time.

Jan 2005 - Rabiya 57.0 (2) 5/1 Bred by Fieldspring Racing’s John Newsome, the grey Rabiya was by Jallad and the first foal of Royal Academy-mare Mystic Spring, subsequently voted Broodmare of the Year, and later also dam of Bela-Bela and Secret Of Victoria.

Trained by Dean Kannemeyer, Rabiya came into the Guineas as the winner of two races from six starts. He followed up a month later in the Gr2 Cape Derby, then reappeared 3 months later to win the Daily News 2000, which made him favourite at 28/10 for the Rothmans July. He tragically broke down during that race and did not survive.

Jan 2006 - Express Way 57.0 ( 8) 18/10 Bred in Argentina, Express Way was by Royal Academy out of the Roi Normand mare NightFall, who was already represented in SA by stakes placed Australlis, and later would have Cape Guineas third Galaxy.

Trained by Dean Kannemeyer, Express Way came into the Guineas as unbeaten winner of 4 starts. The remainder of his 3yo career was an anti-climax, with one fourth place from four starts. He raced in Dubai as a 4yo, finishing third in the Shadwell Trophy over a mile and earning a 108 Timeform rating. Express Way returned to South Africa to take up stud duties at Rosedene Stud, but did not produce anything of note.

Jay Peg

Jan 2008 - Pointing North 57.0 ( 8) 5/2 Bred by Northwood Stud, Pointing North was by Joshua Dancer out of Model Man mare Compass Point.

Trained by Robbie Sage, Pointing North came into the Guineas as the unbeaten winner of three races. He did not race in South Africa again after that, and appeared one year later in Dubai. He was unsuccessful there in 2 starts. Taken to the UK, he raced there twice in August 2009 in Listed company, without getting on the board.

Dec 2008 - Le Drakkar 57.0 (14) 5/1 Le Drakkar was bred in Australia, by Danzig-stallion Anabaa out of NZ-mare My Mo Rally.

Jan 2007 - Jay Peg 57.0 ( 2) 22/10 Bred by High Season Stud, Jay Peg was from the first crop of AP Indy stallion Camden Park, out of Al Mufti mare Laptop Lady. He was closely inbred, as AP Indy’s dam is half sister to Al Mufti.

Trained by Basil Marcus, Jay Peg came into the Guineas as a winner of six races from eight starts. He followed up with a win in the Cape Derby three weeks later. Taken to Durban for the winter features, he did not win in three starts. Voted the Champion 3yo Colt for the season, he then travelled to Dubai where he won the Gr1 Dubai Duty Free. This was followed by a victory in the Singapore Cup, bringing his earnings to the equivalent of some R40 million. Jay Peg had a second season in Dubai, finishing 2nd in the Gr2 Jebel Hatta, then returned to South Africa to take up stud duties at Klawervlei. He has been moderately successful, with 2016 SA Fillies Classic third She’s A Dragon his only Gr1 performer.

Trained by Dean Kannemeyer, he came into the Guineas as the winner of 2 races from four starts. His Guineas win was followed by a third in the Cape Derby. He did not race again in SA, and reappeared a year later in Dubai. His best performance there came in 2011, when third in the Gr2 Al Fahidi.

Dec 2009 - Noordhoek Flyer 57.0 ( 6) 9/2 Bred by Wilgerbosdrift, Noordhoek Flyer was imported in utero, and is by Pivotal out of English mare Serra Negra by Kris.

Trained by Joey Ramsden, Variety Club came into the Guineas as winner of 5 races from nine starts. He followed with two second places, in the Queen’s Plate and Cape Derby, then won the Winter Derby, SA Guineas and Gold Challenge. As a 4yo Variety Club took the Green Point Stakes, Queen’s Plate and Gold Challenge. Voted South Africa’s Horse of the Year in 2012 and 2013, he travelled to Dubai early at five. He won the Godolphin Mile there, and a sensational Hong Kong Champions Mile, which

Sun Met

Marinaresco Tops The Boards The Met is in every way the Wimbledon of horse racing in South Africa. The 2017 iteration of this race is just one step away from being a pure WFA championship event with rules which makes it a ‘WFA plus a single Gr1 penalty’ - and most runners with a real chance would normally have won a Gr1.

Filly and Colts

Nominations included four 3 year old colts and one filly. The last 3yo to run was KING OF PAIN in 2013 (year of MARTIAL EAGLE). The scarcity of 3yo runners must be partly affected by the proximity of the Cape Derby on the same day. BELA-BELA is the only filly nominated for a race which really has seen fillies or mares do very well. Receiving 2.5kgs gives females a fighting chance and even though only a few have run in recent years, those few often place. In the 7 post POCKET POWER Mets, only 10 fillies have run. 3 of 10 fillies have won vs 4 of 100 colts. Within that MOTHER RUSSIA ran 2nd twice, and BEACH BEAUTY 5th and 3rd.

Who is The Horse?

As the nominations came out, it was obvious that

reigning Horse Of The Year LEGAL EAGLE looked the obvious favourite. As a lightly raced and brilliantly campaigned champion, Tarry has kept LEGAL EAGLE as far away from handicaps as a trainer could, and after the JULY as a 3yo has never set foot in one. The Green Point Stakes on 3 December turned the Met on its head from a betting point of view as MARINARESCO’s fantastic turn of speed threw a shadow over LEGAL EAGLE’s professional win. It was such a display of prowess coming from a prep very similar to LEGAL EAGLE, that anyone who watched had to wonder whether the 0.4l deficit could see the tables being turned with an extra 400m and 0.5kgs. The question was no longer if it was possible, but now whether it was probable.

Fear or Favour

The Met’s advantage over the July and the Summer Cup is that aspiring winners do not have to worry about penalties on the way there, and what you get are races like the Green Point and the Queen’s Plate which give you every ounce of Gr1 displays without “fear or favour”. The Met betting opened reflecting the Green Point result with LEGAL EAGLE and MARINARESCO looking to make it a boat race and being offered about 2/1 the pair and some as low as 16/10 the pair. Next in the betting were last season’s top 3yo’s IT’S MY TURN, BELA-BELA, and BLACK ARTHUR. But the market quickly remembered that the days of 4yo’s with 53kgs and 54 kgs have come and gone and the drift set in immediately as the task of carrying 57kgs to 59.5kgs made the challenge

of tackling LEGAL EAGLE and the hot challenger a bit daunting. Current 3yo’s still have a job to do and only HEAVENLY BLUE has attracted some early ante-post bets from those prepared to forfeit if the horse does not run.

Marinaresco Outright

Money talks and some significant wagers on MARINARESCO has flipped him to outright favourite and LEGAL EAGLE has slipped a point out as a call for support. There is some respect for July winner THE CONGLOMORATE, but for the rest shopping around can get big odds on the rest. MASTER SABINA is one who can win anything as long as it’s a handicap and the Summer Cup champ is 20/1 everywhere. Some say it’s not a betting race this time, but as usual if what you like wins then that’s not true. If you can pick either MARINARESCO or LEGAL EAGLE, you are actually being offered odds which could make for a nice bet come the day, and certainly something to double onto.

earned him a 131 Timeform rating. Retired to stud at Klawervlei in 2015, Variety Club proved infertile and did not sire any offspring.

Dec 2012 - Capetown Noir 58.0 ( 4) 1/1 Bred by Lammerskraal Stud, Capetown Noir is by Western Winter out of Fort Woodmare Akinfeet. A daughter of Cape Fillies Guineas winner Dance Every Dance and stakes placed in Dubai, Akinfeet was voted Equus Broodmare of the Year.

Trained by Dean Kannemeyer, Capetown Noir came into the Guineas as winner of three races from five starts. He followed up with a win in the Cape Derby, and as a 4yo annexed the Queens Plate. Capetown Noir retired to stud in 2015 at Summerhill, where his first crop are foals in 2016.

Dec 2013 - Elusive Gold 58.0 ( 7) 28/1 The longest priced winner by far in the last decade, Elusive Gold was bred by Ascot Stud, by Gone West-stallion Sail From Seattle out of Circle Of Gold, by Al Mufti.

Trained by Brett Crawford, Elusive Gold came into the Guineas as winner of two races from four starts. He was exported to Hong Kong following his Guineas win. Renamed Golden Sleep, and trained by Tony Millard, he has won once there from two dozen starts, for earnings of HK$1.1 million.

Dec 2014 - Act Of War 58.0 ( 2) 13/20 Bred by Arc-en-Ciel, Act of War is by Dynasty out of Cordoba-mare Si Senorita, who was voted Equus Champion Broodmare in 2015.

Trained by Joey Ramsden, Act of War came into the Guineas with 5 wins and a nose second from six starts. He followed up with a second in the Cape Derby, and a first place in the Winter Derby. Lightly raced as a 4yo, he won the Matchem Stakes before finishing his racing career with a 6th place in the Queen’s Plate. Taken to stud, Act Of War served his first mares at Summerhill in 2016. He is the fifth son of Dynasty to make a stallion.

Dec 2015 - Noah From Goa 60.0 ( 3) 5/1 Bred by Wilgerbosdrift, Noah From Goa is by Storm Cat-stallion Tiger Ridge out of Fort Wood-mare Limerick.

Trained by Mike de Kock, Noah came into the Guineas as winner of four races from five starts. His next start was in the Queen’s Plate, where he finished less than two lengths third to Legal Eagle and Legislate. He was not seen out again in SA, and went on the long road to Dubai, where he is set to make his debut early in 2017.

SHORT HEADS

Month holiday. That’s how long thirteen time Hong Kong champion jockey Dougie Whyte got for failing to ride out Scales Of Justice to the line in the Gr1 Kingston Town Classic. Despite the support of the horse’s trainer Lindsey Smith and managing owner Chris Wells, the 45yo superstar was handed the heavy sanction on Friday, six days after the race was won narrowly by Stratum Star. Years – the length of patience with the expensive hobby of owning required to celebrate a ﬁrst feature winner for Racing Association CEO Larry Wainstein. The popular Racing Executive’s moment in the sun came courtesy of the Joey Soma trained Fortissima who won – you guessed it – the Gr3 Racing Association Handicap on Summer Cup day. The CEO was thrilled to be acknowledged with an owner of the week award by – you guessed it – the Racing Association. Well done Larry.

Emotional Rescue?

Owners, trainers, jockeys, grooms and punters feel it. So do horses it seems. The Vaal Stipes Report from Saturday tells the whole story: ‘At approximately the 500m Silver Stripe (P Strydom) which was hard ridden, was disappointed when attempting to make his run between Inga (M Yeni) and A P Chanel (*M Thackeray)’.

Disappointed? Tell us about it…!

20 000

That’s the Racing Association bonus cheque handed to Snaith assistant trainer Choppies McLachlan at Fairview on Friday after owner Fred Crabbia's Casino King had shed his maiden. The former trainer’s chirp on the lines of ‘thanks but I don’t know if it makes much of a diﬀerence’ was brutal honesty at its’ most refreshing. Crabbia is one of our biggest owners.

The 2yo filly Soul Stirring was an impressive winner of the Gr1 Hanshin Juvenile Fillies over a mile at Hanshin, Japan, on Sunday. In the process she became the first Group One and sixth stakes winner worldwide for first season sire Frankel (Galileo). Soul Stirring, is the second foal of sixtime Gr1 winner Stacelita (Monsun). Frankel is third in the leading first season sires table in Great Britain by earnings behind Sir Prancealot (Tamayuz) and Sepoy (Elusive Quality).

Love The Chase (Not For Love), the dam of California Chrome (Lucky Pulpit), will visit Pioneerof The Nile (Empire Maker) in 2017. Love The Chase, who is currently in foal to leading sire Tapit (Pulpit), was recently purchased by John McCormack Bloodstock at the FasigTipton November Mixed Sale for US$1,950,000. Pioneerof The Nile is the sire of the Triple Crown winner American Pharoah, Classic Empire, winner of this year's Gr1 Breeders' Cup Juvenile and the Gr1 winner Midnight Storm. Pioneerof The Nile stands at WinStar Farm in Kentucky where his fee for 2017 is US$110 000.

Winners over 4 days of racing for Paarlbased trainer Glen Kotzen at 4 different racecourses in 3 different provinces must surely be something of a record. That’s what the bang in-form Woodhill Racing team achieved from last Friday at Fairview, to the same evening at Greyville, then Kenilworth on Saturday, to a wet Scottsville on Sunday – and finally back to a sunny Kenilworth on Tuesday!

ZOFFANY RULES Australia's reigning Horse of the Year Winx has been installed odds-on favourite to win Sydney's richest race in the autumn - the A$4 million weight-for-age Queen Elizabeth Stakes, which is run at Randwick in April. Winx has not been beaten since her second in the ATC Australian Oaks in April last year, winning her past 13 starts including the 2015 and 2016 Cox Plates at Moonee Valley. Winx won her second Cox Plate last month by a record eight lengths before she was sent for a spell. She is also the early favourite to join Kingston Town as the winner of three Cox Plates.

Justin Snaith’s Gr2 Golden Horseshoe winner Zodiac Ruler lines up in Saturday’s Gr1 Cape Guineas with a big shout to give Zoﬀany another credit. The son of Dansili sired his 11th stakes winner when the Stefano Botti trained 2yo Opinion Maker (ex Bella Estella by Sternkoenig) ran out a narrow winner of the Listed Criterium Di Pisa at Pisa, Italy, on Sunday. Zoﬀany shuttled to Coolmore Australia for four seasons between 2012 and 2015.

SPORTING POST • FRIDAY 16th - SUNDAY 18th DECEMBER 2016

Jeff Lloyd

From ‘The Guv’ to ‘The Goat.’ Jeff Lloyd was born in the UK on 1 September 1961. He and his family settled in South Africa in 1973 and Jeff joined the SA Jockey Academy a few years later.

The rest, as they say, is history, with big race wins and SA Championship titles aplenty. After suffering a stroke in 2013, Jeff has clawed his way back to the top. With an Aussie title and another 7-card whitewash, at 55 years young, he is riding better than ever. We catch up with ‘The Guv’.

The horse gene seems to have come from Jeff’s father, who was keen on racing and had aspirations to be a jockey as a young man, but didn’t have the necessary connections to follow it through. He settled for electronic engineering and the family found their way to South Africa when he was offered a job here.

SA Career Jeff joined the Academy in 1975 under the tutelage of Cyril Buckham, David Cave and the evergreen Vince Curtis and seniors included the likes of Stephen Jupp, Paul Gadsby and Felix Coetzee, who is a still close friend. Apprenticed to Brian de Villiers, Jeff had his first ride under rules over 1600m at Greyville finishing 8th. His first win came courtesy of a grey filly named Panache in a 1200m C Div sprint at the Vaal in January 1978. He remembers, “It was my 38th ride after riding for 7 months. She won by 5 lengths.” Jeff was Transvaal Champion Apprentice in 1977, 78 and 79,

leaving De Villiers to join the up and coming Ricky Maingard stable.

My father taught me to never give up Jeff comments, “I still think this was one of the best decisions I ever made, he taught me to be a true professional and conduct myself well.” It also afforded the opportunity to ride horses such as Bodrum, Rotterdam, Fairy Ring and of course, the mighty Wolf Power, who Jeff counts as one of the best he’s ridden alongside the Gary Alexander speedster, Tommy Hotspur.

Championships Jeff was SA Champion jockey 6 times (finishing on 313 wins for the 1991/92 season to break Muis Roberts’ long-standing record), Mauritian champion 5 times and now has an Aussie title to add to the list. The hard work, travel and commitment it takes to win a title are not for everyone

- what is the key to his success? “I would have to say my hunger to always be the best and always keep improving myself was thanks to my father who always made me work for everything I was given and taught me to never give up, something that has stayed with me forever. However I do think my laid back attitude, and separating my professional life from my home life has helped.” It wasn’t all smooth sailing though. “Most young sportsman don’t know how to deal with the lows when things go wrong. I was no different when my hot, inexperienced head got the better of me in the Cape Guineas riding Wolf Power when I brought down 2 horses and received a 6 month ban. Thankfully Ricky Maingard stuck by me and kept me focused. He put me back on Wolf Power in a Group 1 my 1st meeting back, despite the owners wanting Michael Roberts. Of course the Wolf won by 5 lengths.”

Support Aside from Maingard, Jeff was associated with many of SA’s top trainers, including the likes of Jean Heming, David Payne, Mike Bass and Tony Millard. “I’ve always loved working with a stable

rather than freelance as you get more attached to the horse. They all train their own way, but one thing they all had was work ethic, there are no short cuts to being a great trainer. I still regard Mike Bass as one of the best conditioners I have ever ridden for and he holds a special place in my heart. Since relocating I have ridden for David Payne with great success in Australia. I have been lucky throughout my career to be associated to many top yards and still believe Philippe Henry to be one of the best trainers I have ridden for.” Some of Jeff’s SA highlights include 5 Met wins, 3 Queen’s Plates and a Summer Cup and although Pocket Power is most easily associated with Bernard Fayd’herbe, it was Jeff rode him to his first Queen’s Plate and Met wins. In fact, Met day 2007 was particularly memorable as Jeff rode 6 winners on the day’s card including the Met on Pocket Power, the Cape Derby on Jay Peg and the Fillies Classic on Sun Classique.

Moving Downunder Jeff moved to Australia in 2007. “It was quite a rushed decision but we felt we were doing the right thing by our children. I had no idea how difficult it would be and just how tough racing is here in Australia. Giving up everything I had back home, coming off a season where I had just ridden 12 Group ones and having to start from scratch was not easy. No one cared what I had achieved before it was all about what I could do here.”

My kids are the reason I’m still going and striving to break all the odds “We initially immigrated to Sydney where I rode successfully winning for my old boss David Payne on my 1st meeting. It snowballed from there and after a very successful first season I was invited to ride in Hong Kong on a 3 month contract. I stayed for 3 and a half years before deciding it was time for my children to return to Australia.” This time they settled in Queensland. “We have so many friends here and it has been very easy to settle. We love the life style here on the Gold Coast and couldn’t be happier.”

Aussie racing

“In Australia there are three levels in racing, Metropolitan, Provincial and Country. Metropolitan meetings are held twice a week, where the bigger stake money, top jockeys and better horses race. Unlike SA, the premiership is won on how many winners you have at Metropolitan meetings only. Racing in Australia is like a cult. It receives so much following, there are 4 racing channels on TV and a whole section in every newspaper everyday. Children from a young age love horse racing and everyone, young and old get dressed up for every meeting.” Jeff won his first Australian Gr1 aboard Nom Du Jeu in the 2008 AJC Derby for the Murray Baker yard. “It was a big moment and definitely cemented my place amongst the metropolitan jockeys. I am currently riding a horse for Bjorn Baker (the son of Murray Baker), called Winning Rupert who has won 3 from 3 and is very special.”

Stroke In March 2013, Jeff suffered a serious setback. He suffered a fall at a mid-week Doomben meeting and despite breaking a finger and getting whiplash, fulfilled his engagements for the rest of the day. He took some medication for what he thought was a headache overnight and headed to work as normal the following day. “As we were told to get on our mounts in the 1st race, I got a very bad dizzy spell which never passed, so had to get off the remainder of the day. Not knowing I had suffered a stroke, I still drove 2 hours home.” Upon seeking medical advice, it was discovered that he had suffered an ischemic stroke (a tear in the main artery to the brain). “I was taken straight to ICU and remained in hospital for 2 1/2 weeks. I was told I would never ride again, which at the time I accepted quite easily, just being relieved to have got out of it without any permanent damage.” Ten months later he considered getting back in the saddle and after getting the all clear from his neurosurgeon, he went back to the track and started riding work on 5 March 2014. “It honestly felt like I had never been away. In some ways I think it helped me because having a forced 14 months on the sidelines gave my body that had never had a break time to rest. My back feels better now than it has for the last ten years!”

Australian title Jeff’s recovery has been nothing short of miraculous. Almost a year after his stroke, he was back at the races and on 22 April 2014 he was back in the winner’s enclosure on the David Payne trained Paederos. Not

with

merely

making a comeback, Jeff became the oldest jockey to win this year’s Brisbane Metropolitan title in Australia – with a little help from an old friend.

I was told I would never ride again “I was quite a long way off the first 2 jockeys lying 3rd on the log and content thinking how well I’ve done, when Felix Coetzee phoned me to catch up and say well done. When he heard I was content finishing third with 2 months to go he wouldn’t have it and in his way of saying things, by the time we finished talking I knew I had to push harder and try and achieve the impossible. It was a fight till the last week, but I went into the last meeting 5 ahead and when I won my 3rd ride on the day I had secured the title. My family and friends had all come up to Doomben to surprise me so it was so special arriving at the winners box and seeing them all cheering. My sons were crying. I finished the day with two winners, winning the title by 7 and I have Felix to thank for it.”

Better than ever Jeff followed that up with a fantastic 5 winners on the Eagle Farm card in September and a record-breaking 7 wins at the Sunshine Coast on 30 November. “I have had 7 wins on 3 occasions in South Africa, but this time I rode 7 winners at a Metro meeting and am the first jockey in history to do this in Australia. It was really special to me as my kids, who follow my career very closely, were able to witness it.” Jeff’s wife Nicola and their three children are his biggest supporters. His sons have taken to calling him the ‘GOAT’ – Greatest Of All Time – and there may be a book in the pipeline with the same name. “My kids are the reason I’m still going and striving to break all the odds, it just gives me so much satisfaction seeing their faces after days like that. It always worried me that the majority of my career had taken place before they truly understood it and it is so rewarding to have them be part of my journey.” “I am so lucky to have my wife Nicola and the kids to share this with and am very fortunate to have had more ups than downs throughout my career. Nicola is by far my biggest supporter and motivates me all the time.” Jeff is currently associated with the Toby Edmonds yard and enjoying a strike rate of nearly 30 percent. Although it’s hard to imagine there are too many goals left for the internationally acclaimed rider, he is as focused as ever. “I will be trying to keep surprising myself and setting more goals while I’m still riding. After riding I’ll go where the sport takes me, hopefully keeping myself busy.”

Night Time Is The Right Time

A review of the week's best SPEEDRATINGS

Five From Sixteen

Scottsville 4th December Four of the eight races in Pietermaritzburg on Sunday were staged over 1600m. The fastest of these was the conditions plate won by LITTLE CHAPEL. Sent off as the rank outsider of the eight horse party at 22/1, Dean Kannemeyer’s charge raced in the rear for most of the journey. Once in the home straight though, she quickened best of all and in what proved to be a thrilling finish, she got up in the very last stride to beat WAITY KATIE. The only other distance to stage more than one race was 1200m where the faster of the two was the MR93 Handicap in which SEA FEVER registered his fifth career victory. Soon into stride, the Argonaut gelding raced up with the pace throughout. He kept on strongly at the business end of the race and just held on by the narrowest of margins from SPANISH CAPTAIN. The runner up came from the rear and had to switch 300m out. Much easier a winner from the front was CAPTAIN AT SEA when getting off the mark in the maiden plate over 1600m. Always a couple clear, Gareth Van Zyl’s charge won without any anxious moments. TITBITS

Outside Support Kenilworth 6th December A MR88 Handicap topped the bill in Cape Town on Saturday and in what proved to be the faster of the two 1600m races, we saw a smart performance from the 3yo WILLIAM LONGSWORD. Always top of the boards, Vaughan Marshall’s charge raced second for most of the journey. He was asked to take up the running at the 400m marker and after quickly going clear he comfortably accounted for the running on LINEKER by a length and a half. The faster of the two 1400m events on the card was the MR70 Handicap in which SHALL BE FREE registered his second career victory. Supported throughout the afternoon into 6/1 from 14’s, the son of Elusive Fort raced in the backend of midfield during the early part of the race. He ran on best of all over the final 400m and under a well-judged ride from apprentice Balloo, he got up late to deny the more fancied COPPER FORCE (raced handy – led 180m). In terms of distance the easiest victory on the card was that of BEAU when getting off the mark in the maiden plate over 1400m. Another to find good outside support, Dean Kannemeyer’s charge was soon positioned close to the speed. He put his head in front going through the 300m and although the best bet on the card for most BORDER CONTROL (1/3) chased hard, he went on to score with authority by three and a quarter. TITBITS Lightly raced KAPTEINSPANDISEILE ran on well from the backend of midfield and despite shifting right across the track, only went down by a neck in the opening maiden plate over 1200m.

Turffontein 6th December Due to an electrical storm they were only able to run the first five races on the old stand side track on Tuesday evening. Three of these were staged over 1400m and quickest against the clock in these was the 3yo daughter of New Approach, AL HAWRAA n the MR88 Handicap. Allowed to drift right out to 13/1 from 7’s at the track, Mike De Kock’s charge raced in midfield early on. She ran on strongly down the long home straight and won with some in hand after striking the front 100m out. A maiden juvenile plate for the girls over 800m had opened up proceedings and here we saw a very easy victory for the wellsupported joint second favourite KISSABLE. Taken straight to the front by Randall Simons, the daughter of Antonius Pius led throughout. She held just a slender lead passing the 400m pole, but once given rein she quickly went clear, and won easing down by almost six and a half. FURIOSA in the maiden plate over 1400m was the best bet on the card for most and he did indeed do the business. Deep in the red at 4/10 at the off, Sean Tarry’s charge was always handy. There were anxious moments going through the 400m, but the penny did eventually drop and once getting into top gear he went on to TOP SPEED RATINGS score comfortably by for this WEEKEND just over a length. (Ratings shown have already been TITBITS adjusted to allocated weights) Adopting a change of tactics here, the 66/1 shot IRRIDIUM SILVER was always clear when causing an upset in the maiden plate for the girls over 1400m.

Greyville 7th December the final 400m and went on to score comfortably from the running on PANZA by a length and a quarter. The faster of the two 1400m maiden races on the turf was the boy’s division won by the well-supported BLING SWING. Backed into even money from 18/10 at the track, Paul Lafferty’s charge was always handy. He put his head in front as they approached the 300m marker and drew clear easily in the closing stages of the race to beat his stable companion CUPKING by five. TITBITS SAN JULIAN BAY and THE MONEY MAN both ran on well from off the pace when 3rd & 4th respectively in the MR64 Handicap over 1600m.

Master Stroke Vaal 8th December Three of the nine races on the outside track on Thursday were staged over 1400m and stopping the clock in the fastest time amongst these was COUNTERSTROKE in the MR72 Apprentice Handicap. Positioned at the back for most of the journey, the 5yo Count Dubois gelding cut through the field like a knife at the business end of the race and won going away by a length and a quarter. They also ran three races over 1600m and quickest home here was MAN’S INN in the MR80 Handicap. He led throughout in what was always a very tightly bunched field and just got the verdict by a neck over the more fancied CHEROKEE GREY.

In Full Swing The action took place on both surfaces on Wednesday afternoon. Two maiden plates over 2000m were first up and quickest home in these was NIGHT CIRCUS in the boy’s affair. Sent off a clear favourite at 2/1, Dean Kannemeyer’s charge raced handy in what soon became a strung out field. He ran on strongly in the short home straight and comfortably accounted for the always handy BOLD REIGN by a length and a quarter. A MR80 Handicap over 1000m on the turf topped the bill, and here favourite backers were again on the mark when SWAKOPMUND did the business. Taken straight to the front by Anton Marcus, the top weighted son of Imperial Stride led throughout. He ran on strongly over

The faster of the two 1000m races was the MR68 Apprentice Handicap won by the 3yo Noordhoek Flyer filly CAPTAIN’S GIRL. Soon up with the speed, Louis Goosen’s charge was four lengths clear going through the 200m and it looked as if she would go on to score as she liked. She did start to shift around in the latter stages of the race though, and that allowed the pack to close in to a length and three quarters before the wire. TITBITS The always handy TEENAGE DREAM comfortably accounted for her stable companion SEPTEMBER BLOOM (the favourite) when getting off the mark in the maiden plate for the girls over 1400m.

SPORTING POST • FRIDAY 16th - SUNDAY 18th DECEMBER 2016

Roberto Rules Worldwide While he may have died in 1988, the great sire Roberto (Hail To Reason) continues to make his mark throughout the world, writes Sarah Whitelaw.

n exceptional sire, and sire of sires, himself, Roberto’s name can also be found in the pedigree of such outstanding sires as Dubawi (Dubai Millennium), Dansili (Danehill), Kitten’s Joy (El Prado), and Giant’s Causeway (Storm Cat) – to name but three. Roberto, whose sire sons included such top class stallions as Kris S, Silver Hawk, Dynaformer, Al Mufti and Red Ransom, has once again played a role in the pedigrees of some of the world’s top racehorses of 2016.

North America Arch (a grandson of Roberto) is broodmare sire of one of North America’s

hottest young sires in the form of Uncle Mo (Indian Charlie). The sire of three Gr1 winners in his first crop (including champion 2yo and subsequent Gr1 Kentucky Derby hero Nyquist), Uncle Mo looks to have another potential star for 2017, in the form of recent Gr2 Remsen Stakes winner Mo Town. Uncle Mo (who will cover the great mare Beholder in 2017) will stand for a stud fee of $150 000 next year. Arch’s sire Kris S, an outstanding sire and broodmare sire, is also damsire of 2016 Gr1 Queen Elizabeth

II Challenge Cup winner Time And Motion (Tapit) – past notable stars produced by Kris S mares include none other than US Horse Of The Year Zenyatta (Street Cry) –who lost but once in her career and fellow Breeders’ Cup winners Sweet Catomine (Storm Cat), Life Is Sweet (Storm Cat), and War Chant (Danzig).

Go Far With A Var!

Avontuur’s super sire Var had another good weekend just past when his haul of winners included a pair of impressive juvenile debut scorers.

irst of the Var sired two-year-olds to win first time out was the Pippa Mickleburgh bred Bank On It, who won for owners Mayfair Speculators over 800m at Kenilworth on Saturday. Trained by Dennis Drier - a noted fan of Var - the filly ran on smartly to account for a well bred field of juveniles, and Bank On It looks a smart sort in the making. Out of the Western Winter mare Count The Cash (and thus bred on the same cross as stakes winners Le Var and Winter Passion), Bank On It was a R600 000 buy at this year’s March Yearling Sale. She was the second top lot sold at that sale. Just one day later, another

Var filly made a winning debut. This time it was Trini’s Var Hyte who outclassed her male rivals to win by three and a half lengths at Scottsville. Out of a daughter of Miesque’s Approval, the impressive Trini’s Var Hyte was a bargain, R75 000 buy at this year’s National Yearling Sale. Former sprint king Var who was represented by three winners in all this past weekend - has an exceptional draft of 24 lots on offer at next month’s Cape Premier Yearling Sale. Var’s draft includes a filly out of Gr1 winner Bambina Stripes (Lot 1), a filly out of champion and French Gr3 winner Captain’s Lover (Lot 9), a half brother to Gr1 SA Classic hero Divine Jury (Lot 35), a full brother to Gr1 filly Schiffer (Lot 133), a half brother to

Gr1 winner Thunder Dance out of a Gr1 winning half sister to Captain Al (Lot 184), and a colt out of Gr1 Paddock Stakes/Gr1 Empress Club Stakes winner Thunder Dance (Lot 207). ww.capebreeders.co.za

Another exceptional sire son of Roberto was Dynaformer –whose top runners included the ill-fated Gr1 Kentucky Derby winner Barbaro. While the latter died before ever covering a mare, Dynaformer does look to have left behind a high class sire son in the form of Temple City. The latter recently enjoyed a Gr1 double when his son Annals Of Time and daughter Miss Temple City won the Gr1 Hollywood Derby and Gr1 Matriarch Stakes respectively. The Roberto sire Lear Fan also continues to exert a major influence in the USA –he is broodmare sire of former champion sire Kitten’s Joy, sire this year of G1 Coral Eclipse winner Hawkbill as well as brilliant Breeders’ Cup winner Oscar Performance. Another example of the Roberto influence to be found in the USA can be seen in the form of one of the top 3yos of 2016-Brody’s Cause (Giant’s Causeway). Winner of both the Gr1 Breeders’ Futurity and G1 Blue Grass Stakes, Brody’s Cause, who has since been retired to Spendthrift Stud, is one of large number of top class thoroughbreds who are inbred to Roberto. Others include US champion Big Blue Kitten (Kitten’s Joy), classic winner Danish Dynaformer (Dynaformer), the aforementioned Hawkbill, Gr1 Prix Ganay winning sire Planteur (Danehill Dancer), champion and Gr1 Investec Oaks winner Snow Fairy (Intikhab) and Gr1 Gold Cup hero Rite Of Passage (Giant’s Causeway).

France Red Ransom (Roberto) is the sire of Intikhab- whose maternal granddaughter Found (Galileo) lifted the 2016 Gr1 Qatar Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe. Subsequently retired, Found won Gr1 races at two, three and four, with her other major success coming in last year’s Gr1 Longines Breeders’ Cup Turf. (Intikhab is also broodmare sire of South African champion Igugu (Galileo) –whose half

the local sire band. (Interestingly, the ill-fated Summerhill sire Await The Dawn (Giant’s Causeway) was inbred to Roberto).

sister Ngaga (Fastnet Rock) is currently unbeaten in two starts to date.

Australia All American (a son of Roberto’s outstanding sire Red Ransom) is responsible for this year’s brilliant filly Yankee Rose. The latter, who famously cost just AUS$10 000 as a yearling, made history in 2016 when she became the first filly ever to lift the Gr1 Spring Champion Stakes.

South Africa Former champion sire Captain Al (by the Roberto sire Al Mufti) continues to feature as one of the country’s elite sires this year. The eight times champion sire of 2yos, and sire of last season’s Equus Champions Always In Charge and Cloth Of Cloud, has made a terrific start to the 2016-2017 season, and his runners have dominated recent Cape feature races. (Captain Al sired 1-3 finishers in the recent Gr2 World Sports Betting Merchants, while daughters Jo’s Bond and Carry On Alice ran 1-2 in Saturday’s Gr2 CTS Southern Cross Stakes). Another extremely exciting sire from this sire line at stud in South Africa is Philanthropist (Kris S). The strapping chestnut (represented by a double at Kenilworth on Saturday) has made considerable waves with his first crop of 3yos this season including the impressive graded winners She’s A Giver and Singapore Sling, and Philanthropist looks an exciting addition to

At the Cape Premier Yearling Sale

Call.

The name of Roberto can also be found in the pedigree of Ideal World (Kingmambo) –sire of last season’s Equus Champion Smart

Other stallions with a first SA crop of 2yo’s are Marchfield (AP Indy), whose dam is by Red Ransom, and Twice Over, whose sire Observatory is out of a Roberto mare. One of Marchfield’s 2yo daughters is out of Kitty Cat, a mare inbred to Roberto.

Japan Winner of Sunday’s Gr1 The Longines Hong Kong Cup, Japanese superstar Maurice (Screen Hero) is another outstanding runner descended in male line from Roberto. Now retired to stud, his win on Sunday was Maurice’s sixth at Gr1 level, with his previous top level wins having included the Gr1 Hong Kong Mile, G1 Yasuda Kinen, Gr1 Tenno Sho and G1 Mile Championship.

The former Horse Of The Year is by Gr1 Japan Cup winner Screen Hero –a grandson of the Roberto son Silver Hawk. Roberto’s sire sons Brian’s Time and Real Shadai (Leading Sire in Japan in 1993) both enjoyed marked success at stud in Japan, and it will be interesting to see if the brilliant Maurice can do the same.
