SPORTING POST • FRIDAY 30th DECEMBER 2016 - SUNDAY 1st JANUARY 2017

The Trippi ﬁlly Impala Lily is improving and could be a danger to the more fancied runners

2012

The New Year kicks off on a high note at Greyville on Sunday with the running of the R250 000 Gr3 Flamboyant Stakes. Local hopes will lie with the 2016 top two, Olma and Lala, who will be out to stem the tide of a strong challenge from up North. he Gauteng raiders have a good record in this fillies and mares weight-forage plus penalties contest, which is run over the Greyville turf mile.

Weights

The weights are set with winners of Gr1 races getting 3 kg for each such win, while Gr2 wins attract a 2kg penalty and Gr3 victories a 1kg premium. These are not cumulative. Olma gave Lala 5kgs and a two length beating in this race on the first day of the current year. The daughter of Dynasty won a polytrack handicap and also ran a course-anddistance cracker in the height of the SA Champions Season when beaten a half length by Cape star Inara in the Gr1 Garden Province Stakes in July. She was rested after a blank effort in the Gold Bracelet

and was then tried in an ill conceived return run in the Gr2 Joburg Spring F&M Challenge. Her connections don’t appear to want to accept the fact that she just doesn’t perform in Gauteng! She pulled up lame after her last start over the mile at Scottsville. She has the class and ability at best.

Good Form

In contrast to Olma, the year younger Lala has shown good recent form. She has drawn very wide though and could find herself chasing again. The Gauteng challengers Fort Ember and Heaps Of Fun look serious contenders. The Gauteng Fillies Guineas winner Heaps Of Fun has not won in ten months but has produced enough forward form to rate her a major force in this field. She only managed to get within 2,65 lengths of Inara in the Garden Province

over Sunday’s course-anddistance, but ran a cracker when 2,10 lengths behind Met fancy Bela-Bela in the Woolavington. She showed plenty of toe at her last start over 1200m and looks ready to win again.

Sparingly Raced

Fort Ember has been lightly tried, winning 4 of her 8 starts. Her one and only try over the course-and-distance was in the Gr1 Thekwini two seasons back where she ran 2,75 lengths off Lauderdale – in a race where subsequent form has proven questionable. She did then win three on the trot before placing in the Gr2 Ipi Tombe Challenge and running a nice prep three weeks ago behind Patchit Up Baby. It is interesting to note that Lyle Hewitson won the Gr3 Christmas Handicap in the same silks over the same course and distance last Monday!

Disappointing

The enigmatic Dawn Calling heads the Duncan Howells attack. The daughter of Trippi came out of her 2yo as the unlucky bridesmaid – with second places in the Gr1 Thekwini and the Gr2 Golden Slipper. Despite that, she remains a modest one-time winner and is yet to win this term. She was also well beaten in the Cape Fillies Guineas behind Just Sensual. She enjoys the best of the draws here and gets another chance to redeem herself. The Drakenstein owned and bred Impala Lily is a filly on the up and looks to be effective on turf and poly. The daughter of Trippi has enjoyed a short break since conceding 4kgs and disposing of the highly vaunted Dawn Attack last time out. Even though she is out of a mare who won up to 2500m, Impala Lily has yet to show herself to be effective at the mile – and this must be a concern for her connections.

Further?

Gavin van Zyl’s Work Ethic looks to be a filly that we have yet to see the best from. Bred on staying lines, the mile may be on the sharp side for her. She must also be much better than her penultimate run when finishing over 6 lengths behind Girl On The Run in the Gr3 Yellowwwood Handicap at Turffontein. She could also have Playboy Buddy’s beating on her last effort – but that won’t necessarily translate to win potential in this line-up. The second of the Duncan Howells three pronged attack is the 5yo Littleblacknumber. The daughter of Black Minnaloushe has not been at her fiery best in her three runs

this term. If she repeats her Gr2 Tibouchina effort of last season where she ran 2,65 lengths off Alexis – with Olma behind her – she must have something of an outside place chance at best.

SPORTING POST • FRIDAY 30th DECEMBER 2016 - SUNDAY 1st JANUARY 2017 Lyle Hewitson keeps Rikitikitana at it to stave off Celtic Captain (Brandon Lerena)

Gr3 CHRISTMAS HANDICAP at Greyville last Monday

Sacrificing his Christmas lunch while the rest of us overindulged paid dividends for Avontuur-sponsored Lyle Hewitson when he piloted the Sean Tarry trained Rikitikitana to an impressive win in the R250 000 Gr3 Christmas Handicap at Greyville on Boxing Day.

he polished and talented Hewitson’s professional approach belies his youth and he had no issues making the 52kgs set for the 4yo Rikitikitana in a typically competitive Christmas Handicap line-up. The day started well for him and trainer Sean Tarry, when two races earlier, the pair was awarded a win in the boardroom after Lucky Luciano was on the receiving end of

some rough stuff from the original winner Silver Rose. The Stipes took what felt like an eternity to reach their decision – but it is another call we have to say we feel they got right. Run over the turf mile, the Christmas Handicap saw last year’s runner-up Stormy Eclipse start a weak second fancy after the money came for Rikitikitana’s stablemate, Lunar Approach. With the temperamental Rikitikitana losing

a few lengths at the break, Andrew Fortune led the way in the bright orange silks of Sylvester The Cat, who made the running ahead of Celtic Captain and Budapest. At about the 800m backers of Lunar Approach were horrified to see their favourite pulled out of the race by S’manga Khumalo – we have not yet ascertained the reasons for the pull-up. Into the straight, Rikitikitana was closer to last as Ashton Park went down the rail with Sylvester The Cat fading out.

Topweight Celtic Captain was staying on well and looked dangerous inside the 250m, but Hewitson had things under control as he had Rikitikitana in full cry, storming down the centre to win by a half length in a time of 98 secs. Trainer Gareth Van Zyl dominated the places as Celtic Captain held his form well and ran a gallant second 0,75 lengths in front of his stablemate Budapest – who appeared to enjoy the change in race tactics adopted by Alec Forbes.

Stormy Eclipse came on too late under Anton Marcus but managed fourth, ahead of the one-paced Ashton Park. Marcus had what looked a top book of 7 rides and managed to ride a double on the afternoon. This was Rikitikitana’s biggest success to date – he has won 4 races with 8 places from 21 starts and took his bank to R457 550. Bred by The Alchemy, he is a 4yo gelded son of Toreador out of the four-time winning National Assembly mare, Russian Foxtrot.

Sergeant Leads Tevez Catches Them Offside The Charge SOUTHEASTER SPRINT (Listed) at Kenilworth last Saturday

Candice Bass-Robinson turned an afternoon of mixed fortunes on Cape Guineas Saturday around in festive style with three good winners in front of a small holiday crowd in bright sunny conditions at Kenilworth on Christmas Eve.

he Milnerton based family operation had a Gr2 winner a week earlier, but frustrating seconds and thirds have bedevilled their stats in recent months. It seems though that they have kicked into some good form in advance of very important dates on the Cape Summer Of Champions calendar in the first month of 2017, and things have turned sweetly. Their big winner of the day was the athletic black 7yo gelding Tevez, a dual past winner of the Gr2 Cape Merchants, who proved too classy in the R150 000 Listed Southeaster Sprint. With Anton Marcus in town to do duty for Mayfair Speculators, MBR stable jockey Grant van Niekerk was relegated to ride Line Break (who didn’t go down to the start very well), while Aldo Domeyer got the commission to ride the third of their runners, in the Elusive Fort gelding, Ernie. Tevez likes to be given a chance early and it was a surprise to see him jump keenly, before being eased back

as Tar Heel and then Olympian led the charge. Greg Cheyne showed his hand at the 450m as he grabbed a two length break on Captain Swarovski, with Marcus riding a patient race, angling Tevez across from the inside to the outside rail. With a bit of crowding and hardluck stories going on behind him, Marcus gave Tevez his head at the 200m and the enthusiastic gelding was in the clear and in the words of a local commentator, ‘not for the catching’, as he stretched clear. Tevez ran on powerfully to hold off an eyecatching late challenge from the gallant long-priced Asstar by 0,75 lengths in a time of 65,49 secs. The winner’s stablemate Ernie, who went down like a winner, showed improved form to get third 0,40 lengths back. He is one for the notebook. The second favourite La Favourari was not disgraced in fourth. Captain Swarovski looked dangerous late, but faded out to seventh and 3,35 lengths behind the winner. The classy Gulf Storm never showed and finished a short head

behind him. Triptique went to the start scratchily and ran accordingly, finishing stone last and 11,80 lengths back. Jockey Anton Marcus said that Tevez was a gutsy sprinter who always gave of his best. “He broke well and I left him where he was comfortable. I can never be accused of swinging on to many of them,” he laughed in a prompt from the interviewer that Tevez raced more prominent than usual. Trainer Candice Bass-Robinson said that Tevez was ‘not the easiest of horses to ride’. “”When Anton popped him out the gates first, I thought..mmm! But things worked out well and he ran on really welly to win,” she said. An evergreen presence in the local speed ranks, Tevez was having his 36th start. He has won 7 races with 16 places for stakes of R1 208 800. A R700 000 National Yearling Sale purchase, the Avontuur bred Tevez is a 7yo gelded son of Caesour out of the four-time winning Elliodor mare, Minelli – that makes him a half-brother to champion sprinter Val De Ra.

NEED FOR SPEED SPRINT at Kenilworth last Saturday

Freelance Cape based jockey Richard Fourie is making a serious bid for a national title this term and his four winners at Kenilworth on Christmas Eve was the highlight of an entertaining meeting.

ourie’s quartet of winners included an armchair end-to-end win on the Justin Snaith-trained Sergeant Hardy in the R150 000 Need For Speed Sprint. The son of Captain Al is said to be a ‘roarer’ and a fellow with serious breathing problems. His heart and natural ability outstrip those ailments though and there was no stopping him as he galloped his 8 rivals off their feet in the non blacktype feature for a smooth win over the 1000m. He beat Soweto Moon by 3 lengths in a time of 59,34 secs. The 12-10 favourite Attenborough never got into the mix and ran a rather disappointing 6,05 lengths fourth. Sergeant Hardy had just been run out of it late in the Lanzerac Ready To Run Stakes by Gauteng filly Safe Harbour, after he had hung badly late. Trainer Justin Snaith quipped that had his rider Anthony Delpech known him a little better, things could have worked out better there. But the smart sprinter will get another chance at big money. He

lines up next on Sun Met Day in the $500 000 CTS 1200. Bred by Veronica Foulkes of Normandy Stud, it was a blessing in disguise that this multiple stakes winning galloper failed the Vet at the sale due to his breathing issues. He now races in a partnership of Veronica and her son, Oscar. Sergeant Hardy was the fourth consecutive Captain Al Saturday feature winner in the Cape this December. Search Party won the Gr2 Cape Merchants on 3 December, Jo’s Bond won the Gr2 Southern Cross Stakes on 10 December, William Longsword won the Gr1 Cape Guineas on 17 December and then Sergeant Hardy rounded the quartet off on a humbler note with his win here. He was a R450 000 Cape Premier Yearling Sale Book 1 buy back and bred by Normandy Stud. The colt is by champion sire Captain Al out of the four-time winner Hard Lady (by Hard Up), who also raced in the vieux rose and white silks. He has now won 5 races with 2 places from 7 starts and stakes of R935 425.

The R250 000 Gr3 Lebelo Sprint brings the curtain down on 2016 at Turffontein on Saturday. Mike Azzie will be hoping to crack open an early bottle of bubbly with the beautifully bred Rivarine ending the year on a high. he 3yo son of Var bolted and was withdrawn from his last scheduled engagement in the Golden Loom on Charity Mile day.

Distractions

The youngster is still a colt and it appeared on that occasion that the crowd and the lights may have upset and excited him. He will be looking to make amends here and on his excellent form as a leading 2yo could put this lot to bed if he behaves and things go his way. Avontuur-sponsored Lyle Hewitson gets the ride and he is at the top of his personal game at the moment after a great win on Monday in the Christmas Handicap at Greyville. Sean Tarry’s Captain’s Causeway has only his eighth career start and is set for his fifth win if things go his way.

The son of Captain Al bounced back strongly after a six month rest to beat Pivotal Pursuit, who won so well on Tuesday at the Vaal, going away. As the unexposed force, he looks to be the older horse – if there is going to be one to take on and beat Rivarine. S’manga Khumalo will give him every chance.

Top Weight

Paul Peter’s African Ruler carries top weight and is bound to be concerned in the finish again. The son of Trippi gets the services of Andrew Fortune – with regular rider Gavin Lerena riding Greasepaint. African Ruler had every chance at his penultimate start in the Golden Loom when appearing to go a little onepaced late and beaten 1,60 lengths by Bull Valley. With Fortune up the plan may well be to make less use of the 4yo and let him rather try and run at them late.

Problems

Alec Laird’s Dollar Dazzler is a talented 6yo but his formline tells a story of a horse with problems. The son of Var has failed to recapture his earlier smart form and has not visited the winner’s enclosure since April 2015. The fact that his connections are persevering with him suggests that he is showing enough to crack another win and he did show plenty of pace last time when a fair 5,60 lengths off the high-class Trip To Heaven in the Gr2 Joburg Merchants last time out. Clinton Binda’s Manx Park has shown signs of breathing problems and his recent form suggests that he could battle to assert himself here. He is 1,5kgs better off with Greasepaint for a 3 length beating at their last start but does not strike us as a likely contender for the first cheque. The second of the Mike Azzie runners is the Var mare

Easy Game, who campaigns in the Avontuur silks these days, in advance of her stud career. She faded rather tamely in the Gardenia Stakes last time out, but prior to that put in a good effort when beaten 1,90 lengths by Wrecking Ball – in receipt of 5,5kgs.

Name Of The Game

Easy Game is as much as 5kgs better off with the younger Wrecking Ball here and even though she would have to lift her form to feature, she cannot be disregarded. The lightning fast Wrecking Ball comes in 1,5kgs better off with Captain’s Causeway for a 1,50 length beating over 160m further than they meet on Saturday, last time. The daughter of Great Britain is best suited to the minimum trip and could make them run if she gets away and is in the mood. The relatively inexperienced Queen Laurie is another who seldom runs a bad race, and after chasing the topclass Green Pepper home in the Listed Gardenia Stakes (over Saturday’s course and distance) at her penultimate start, she just failed to hold off The Thinker in lower rated handicap company last time.

Overdue

The 6yo Kahal gelding Greasepaint scored a long overdue win – his first in over a year – at his last start after knocking on the door for ages. This consistent sprinter meets Seattle Singer, whom he beat a short head there, on a half kilo better terms, but there should be little between them again. Seattle Singer is the third of a trio of fast 3yo fillies. The smart stakes placed daughter of Sail From Seattle just does not know how to run a bad race and has mixed it with the boys in a handicap previously.

Met Plans Scuppered The excitement over the participation of the Mauritius Horse Of The Year Parachute Man in the R5 million Sun Met has come to nought as a result of red tape. The former Cape-based son of High Chaparral was one of 28 entries for the big race to be run at Kenilworth on Saturday, 28 January 2017. His trainer Ricky Maingard said plans had been abandoned due to the South African Directorate of Animal Health refusing to consider the use of the Kenilworth quarantine station for their use on arrival in the RSA. Are we ever going to internationalise the Met or Queen’s Plate?

Champion jockey Anton Marcus’ admission after his win aboard Tevez in the Listed Southeaster Sprint at Kenilworth on Saturday that he can never be accused of ‘swinging on to too many of them’, was an interesting conﬁrmation of his preferred riding style. Tevez has always been a late swoop merchant – but Marcus somehow got him to win readily with a more prominent galloping display.

The 2015 Melbourne Cup heroine Michelle Payne hopes to one day ride a horse she trains in the Melbourne Cup. Payne, who is registered as a jockey-trainer in Victoria, will head to Europe in the middle of next year looking for a horse to fulﬁl that dream. She said she might follow the lead of recent internationally bred Cup winners by looking to France and Germany rather than England. Payne is one of just six jockeys to also have a trainer's licence in Australia.

That’s the amount Australian jockey James McDonald won from his winning bet on his mount Astern last December. It seems an expensive price to have had to pay for an 18 months suspension dished out by NSW Stewards after he pleaded guilty to having an interest in the bet. His lawyer argued for a lighter ﬁne as “the betting public, including the owner and the trainer, would think 'well he is trying'.” Gotta love lawyers' rationale!

SPORTING POST • FRIDAY 30th DECEMBER 2016 - SUNDAY 1st JANUARY 2017

Adam Marcus

Paying His Dues Adam Marcus got his trainer’s licence at the tender age of 22, striking out on his own at 23.

He has been training under his own name for a little over 4 years now and saddled Royal Badge to victory in the Gr3 Cape Summer Stayers Handicap on Cape Guineas day.

Driving through the gates of the ‘new’ section of Milnerton training centre, one used to be met with a bit of an eyesore. The area to the left of the loading ramp was neglected with the disused nooks and crannies of the perimeter walls piled with bags of bedding and refuse, waiting to be removed. However, in March 2012, things began to change. A maroon and white sign appeared on the nearest block, stables were cleaned, doors rehung. Slowly things got tidied, mended, and smartened up. The refuse disappeared, grass was planted, the layout was rearranged and now, instead of feeling as though you’re in a derelict part of the training centre, it feels brisk, clean and organised.

Adam Marcus Dressed in jeans and a baseball cap, Adam Marcus strides out to greet you. Born on 20th February 1989, Adam is still a few months shy of his 28th birthday, but has packed a lot into those 3 decades. Being the son of the great

It gave me goose bumps to get unquestioning support like that Basil Marcus, Adam spent his formative years in Hong Kong and England before returning to South Africa to complete his schooling in Cape Town. A talented cricketer, he chose valour over discretion in making racing his career path. When you ask him why, he smiles wryly. “My dad tried to talk me out of it, but there’s nothing else I’d rather do. From the time I was 14, I was at the yard every day after school. My dad wanted me to learn from the ground up, so I was in the feedroom for a year and then groomed for 2 years - I’m pretty good at it too. My dad felt it was important for me to understand how horses feel from the saddle, so that I was better able to understand feedback from workriders and jockeys, so I did 4-5 years of work-riding, although I’m probably not up to Dad’s

standard,” he jokes. After matric, Adam did a stint with Herman Brown jnr in Dubai, getting to work with the likes of Jay Peg and Desert Links. When he returned to team up with his dad again, he took on the role of being Marcus Racing’s head assistant.

Big horses Basil relocated to Singapore and built up a highly successful string, including horses such as Ato, Flax, Clear For Action and Trafalgar Legacy. When Basil chose to return to South Africa, they decided it was the right time for Adam to take over Marcus Racing. But why not simply start again here? Adam explains, “My dad had a string of approximately 140 horses at the time of which I was in charge of a barn of 44. The plan had always been for me to take over the Singapore string, but unfortunately things didn’t turn out as planned but the two year period was filled with valuable knowledge and experience.

Starting out Adam picked up the phone to Mrs Oppenheimer, who had been a loyal client for many years. “I asked if she’d support me if I took out my trainer’s license. She answered ‘Let me know when your barn is ready and the horses will arrive’. As a 23 year old, it gave me goose bumps to get unquestioning support

like that and she was as good as her word. I started with 6 horses of which 3 were Mrs O’s. It was wonderful working for a lady of her stature and we had a very good relationship. Whether she had a maiden or a graded runner, to her every single one was like winning the July and I was very sad when she passed.” The front office, for client comfort, is simply, but comfortably furnished. There are photographs of stable stars – past and present - on the walls and although it’s only a select few for now, Adam says when he reaches 100 winners, he’s planning a big collage. The back office is the engine room and houses all the stable paperwork, neatly ordered into files. Work lists, veterinary lists, dentist, physio and chiro visits - each horse’s entire history recorded in minute detail in Adam’s neat handwriting.

The meticulous organisation continues through to the feed and tack room, which Adam shows off proudly. There are three different brands of feed (“I’m a fussy eater and hate being offered food I don’t like,”), all the buckets are spotlessly clean and neatly stacked and there is an electronic scale to weigh each ration, as well as any leavings. In the tack room, the saddles and bridles are neatly arranged. Each horse is allocated its own set of tack, adjusted to each individual as well as to keep the spread of infections and diseases to a minimum. It takes a while to figure out what is missing and when I finally do, I realise it’s mess. There isn’t any. Although that ought to feel regimented, it simply feels efficient. Horses thrive on routine and the Marcus horses are calm and good-natured, happily putting their heads over the doors to say hello as we pass and all glossy with good health.

Appearances matter One shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, because what you see isn’t always what you get, but on the other hand, sometimes it is. Also, it’s a matter of principle for Adam. “I like to think we have the gold standard. I put a lot of pressure on myself to make sure my horses get nothing but the best.

I’m not in a position – at least not yet – where I have big clients with big buying power behind me to buy the top bloodstock, so I put everything I can into every single horse to make sure they reach their potential. Feet are very important to me – my horses never go one day overdue, but whether it’s feed or vaccinations or planning a horse’s races, I control as much as I can, because all those details add up to lengths on the track.”

I get a grand tour of the yard and knowing what it looked like before, it’s hard not to marvel at how things have changed. Adam explains, “Every cent I make goes into the yard. It has taken a long time and there’s still a lot more to do, but I’m doing it bit by bit as I can afford it.”

I have my own yard and 5 years’ experience and I’m only 27 “Because my dad is so supportive and spends a lot of time here, people seem to think I am just the figure head and he does the training and buys me any horses I like. “If only! Yes, my dad is very generous in helping pick horses at sales and is happy to advise if I ask, but most of the time he says ‘you know what to do’. I train his homebreds, so he comes to the yard to stroke and cuddle his horses and enjoy being around them, but that’s as far as it goes. The rest is all me. Like any businessman, I’m responsible for the rent, wages, feed and equipment, canvassing for clients, running the books, etc. It’s not easy. But I’m lucky to have had the education and experience I’ve had so far. My dad gave me a good grounding and I was incredibly fortunate to work with horses like Jay Peg and Ato, so in many ways, I’m ahead of the curve – I have my own yard and 5 years’

experience and I’m only 27. “My stats are consistently just below the top yards with 100200 horses, so I know I do a good job, but realistically one is only as good as your stock. I’m at a point where I’m doing well, but either need a big client or a big break to reach the next step. There are not many young trainers coming through the ranks, particularly in Cape Town, so in many ways I am part of the future, I just need the opportunity to get to the next level. Either way, I believe that hard work will get me there, I just need to hang on until it happens.”

Royal Badge We stop in to look at current star, Royal Badge, being rubbed down for the afternoon. “He’s from a really lovely family from James Armitage’s Sandown Stud. First we bought Priceless Jewel who won 8 races including the Champagne Stakes, Olympic Duel and Prix Du Cap and finished 3rd in the Gr1 Majorca Stakes. Then we bought Crystal Cavern who won the Stormsvlei Mile and now there’s Royal Badge, so all my feature winners have been out of So Royal.” “His early form was very good. I wasn’t in a rush to geld him as he didn’t need it physically, but his behaviour was getting a little out of control, so we did it after the Winter Series. His first two runs back were definitely below his true ability]. The first time out over 1400m he sat back and never got into it. Aldo came back and said ‘don’t be put off’, but I was concerned as I’d thought more of him than that. “Next time out was over 1800m with Corne Orffer. I have to say, it’s not often a jockey comes back and says the horse gave him a good feel when they finished last! I was questioning myself after those first two runs, but his work at home was sensational, so it was nice to see him bounce back to best in the Cape Summer Stayers Handicap.” He went up 5lbs from his last win and he’s a MR95 now, so we’re aiming him for the 3200m Handicap on Queen’s Plate day. My dad always says ‘keep yourself in the best company and your horses in the worst’, so I thought it wise to go the handicap route as I feel he’s still ahead of the handicapper at this stage and should be competitive off that rating. Then there’s a 2800m on Met Day. “I’m lucky to have patient owners and it’s a privilege to be able to produce him through the ranks. He’s definitely one of the best in my short career.”

New Course Record

Scottsville 18th December The only race over 1000m in Pietermaritzburg on Sunday was a MR104 Handicap and in new course record time victory went to the 4yo son of Var ISCA. Sent off second in the betting market at 5/2, Gavin Van Zyl’s charge raced at the back of the six early on. He ran on strongly at the business end of the race and after striking the front 100m out, he kept on to beat the previous record holder MUSCATT by 0,15. Three of the afternoon’s nine races were run over 1400m and quickest home in these was ROY’S AMAZING ASH in the boy’s division of the maiden plate. Taken straight to the front by Brandon Lerena, the well supported outsider (14/1 into 7’s) just kept finding in the straight and held on to beat the 18/10 favourite GLEN COCO by 0,25 They also ran three races over 1600m and stopping the clock in the fastest time here was the 5yo top weight BALTIC AMBER. Ridden for the first time by Anton Marcus, the Alado gelding stumbled at the start, but despite that was soon positioned close to the speed. He was visibly doing it easily at the top of the straight and went on to score comfortably by two after taking it up 300m out. TITBITS

No Beating About The Bush Fairview 19th December They raced on the turf on Monday where the fastest of the three 1200m races was the MR86 Handicap won by the progressive 3yo BEATABOUTTHEBUSH. Now unbeaten in three starts, the Gimmethegreenlight filly was soon up handy. She was ridden to lead 150m from home and only having to be pushed out won well by three quarters. They also staged three races over 1600m and causing a major upset in the fastest of these, a MR75 Handicap, was TRICIA DUPONT. Freely available at 22/1 in this her first outing since relocating from Gauteng, the daughter of Dupont also raced handy. She put her head in front shortly after passing the 200m marker and won going away by two and a half. A maiden juvenile plate over 800m had gotten proceedings underway and in what proved to be a real thriller victory here went to the second favourite BRIGHT FLAME. Holding just a narrow lead over the runner up DICKENSIAN throughout, the pair ran on strongly in the second half of the race and with the rest some three and a quarter lengths adrift they could only be separated on the nod.

MAIN EXCHANGE only had to be pushed out when running on from midfield to win the girl’s maiden plate over 1600m with authority by three and a half. A winner with some in hand, OFF THE BIT won the novice plate over 1600m much more easily than the official winning margin of a neck would suggest.

Strong Stuff Kenilworth 20th December All the rage to win the opening maiden plate over 1200m on Tuesday was the newcomer HEAD HONCHO and the son of Querari didn’t let down his supporters. Sent off a strong favourite at 11/10, Andre Nel’s charge raced in midfield during the early part of the race. Once given rein though he quickened well and in what proved to be the fastest of the three races over the distance, he comfortably accounted for another newcomer in KINGSTON PASSAGE by three quarters. The only other distance to stage more than one race was 1600m where the faster of the two was the maiden plate won by VERDIER. Taken straight to the front by Richard Fourie, the 3yo son of Var enjoyed a two lengths advantage for most of the journey. He was briefly headed by PERGOLA 150m out, but fought back gamely below the distance to score by a half. An allowance plate over 1800m topped the bill and here we saw another smart performance from WHISKY BARON. Backed through all rates into 13/20 from 12/10, Brett Crawford’s charge raced fourth of the six early on. He put his head in front 400m out and went on to win with authority from the well-supported outsider MACDUFF (16/1 into 5/1). TITBITS Baulked twice despite initially racing handy, the newcomer PHILAE showed a nice turn of foot when getting up late to win the girl’s maiden plate over 1400m.

Sparkling Wine Scottsville 21st December Racing returned to Pietermaritzburg on JACK THE KNIFE. Drawn wide, the runner up Wednesday where victory in the fastest of the didn’t find the clearest of passages when running three 1200m races, a MR64 Handicap, went to on from the backend of midfield. Quickest home the easy to back KINGSVIEW. Freely available in the two 1600m races was the Mike De Kock at 12/1 on the off, the King’s Apostle mare led trained NORTHERN CHORUS. Sent off throughout. She gave her all over the final 400m at 11/2 to win the MR66 Handicap, the Fort and held on by a half from the dead-heaters Wood filly raced sixth for most of the journey. She quickened well at the top of the home STORM KITTEN and CAMOMILE. There was another upset in the faster of the straight and despite hanging, she went on to win two 1400m races, a MR70 Handicap, when the very comfortably by two and a half. 7yo POIVRE registered his fifth career victory. TITBITS Priced up at 13/1 on the off, Poivre was always After being a little slow into stride, the newcomer handy. He was ridden to lead as they approached WYNKELDER ran on very well from the backend the 200m marker and just held on by the of midfield when getting up late to win the maidnarrowest of margins from the luckless 55/1 shot en plate over 1200m going away.

Come In Number Six Vaal 22nd December Three maiden plates opened up proceedings on the inside track on Thursday and quickest home in these was the newcomer BRIGTNUMBERSIX when getting off the mark in the only division for the girls. Nibbled at throughout the day into 5/1 from 14’s, Lucky Houdalakis’ charge raced in midfield during the early part of the race. She quickened well when the race began in earnest and won going away by a length and three quarters after striking the front 100m from home. Race four on the card was a maiden plate for the girls over 1800m and here we saw a very easy victory for the 18/10 favourite END GAME. Confidently ridden by Piere Strydom, Sean Tarry’s charge sat sixth early on. She put

her head in front going through the 400m and went on to score as she liked by just over four. The faster of the two 2000m races on the card was the MR81 affair won by the lightly weighted SEAL MY FATE. Sent off at 13/1 after opening up at 20’s, the daughter of Horse Chestnut attempted to make all.
