t’s probably in the entrepreneurial nature of the punter to try and find the lurker and something to beat the favourite. But this may well be one battle left to the obvious.

Top Team

Sean Tarry and Anton Marcus have enjoyed a beautiful Cape Summer Of Champions with the star 5yo Legal Eagle.

Does it get better in terms of big race preps than two smooth victories in the Green Point Stakes and the L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate his second consecutive win in our premier wfa mile – on the descent into a Met bid?

He just has so much in his favour – the proven track record, the compressed weight scale of the race and the relatively kind Kenilworth 2000m – yes, let’s not forget that he’s not just your average champion miler – a win in the 2450m SA Derby throwing that tag out of the window.

Scraping the bottom of the excuses barrel, we could suggest that he ran two such cracking miles, that the edge may be off. Did he even peak too early?

We will find out just after 5pm on Saturday.

Snaith Special

Justin Snaith has a three cornered attack and he dearly wants to win this race.

He saddles the only filly in the race in Paddock Stakes winner Bela-Bela, who bids to make it 4 wins in 8 years in the Cape flagship for the fairer sex.

She has enjoyed a similar prep to last year’s winner Smart Call and gets the services of top man Anthony Delpech from a good draw.

Her only defeat in her last five starts – which included two Gr1 successes – was her 2,65 length sixth in the Durban July after things did not go her way. Ignore this grey flyer at your peril!

Marinaresco has had his bottom smacked twice recently by Legal Eagle and while his ego would have been severely damaged, he

SA Horse of the Year Legal Eagle

Superhero

The evergreen Captain America is back for more after his game third from off the pace in a true run race to Smart Call in the 2016 renewal.

Have we had the wrong impression of this fellow’s ability at a mile and beyond?

Consider this. He was beaten 4,50 lengths by Smart Call, and 1 length by Legal Eagle, all running to their best ratings. Captain America gave Legal Eagle ½ kg, which reflects in their ratings: 112 vs 113.

In the recent L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate, which looks to have been a true run affair, Legal Eagle won by 2,25 lengths. They raced off level weights, with ratings of 112 and 116.

On Saturday Legal Eagle has 60kgs to lumber and Captain America 58kgs – four points difference in terms of ratings. Given the evidence from the 2016 Met and this year’s Queen’s Plate, Captain America probably has as good a chance as Legal Eagle.

Luck in the running could make all the difference.

1 Martial Eagle 2 Hill Fifty Four 3 Beach Beauty

To complicate matters or not? That poser faces racing fans ahead of Saturday’s R5 million Gr1 Sun Met. On paper, our reigning SA Horse Of The Year Legal Eagle looks perfectly poised to register his sixth career Gr1 success and atone for a surprise defeat in this great race in 2016. will be out to show he is a better horse over 2000m.

With a good draw and a great turn of foot being his major assets, the pressure will be on jockey Grant van Niekerk to have him in a better position to attack.

On The Rocks

The half unknown factor in the race is the Australian-bred Whisky Baron.

The 4yo has had a soft prep of note which he has passed with flying colours, winning the Gr2 Peninsula Handicap to make it four on the trot last time.

His trainer Brett Crawford has suggested Whisky Baron reminds him of his past Met winner Angus – that’s high commendation!

A revelation since gelding, it is interesting that the ‘ungelded’ Whisky Baron finished 0,40 lengths behind Marinaresco twice in the Winter Series last term. Now the ‘new improved’ version faces the Bass-Robinson flagbearer in receipt of 2kgs on Saturday. Makes you think, doesn’t it…

Sean Tarry’s second stringer, the dual Gr1 winner French Navy, will have his supporters despite his 40-1 tag in the market.

His last win was achieved over a year ago in the Gr3 London News Stakes and his two prep runs since a disappointing July effort have been largely unspectacular.

But this 2000m looks likely to suit him down to the ground and a Met bid has always been on his supporter’s bucket list.

The son of Count Dubois has a superb finishing effort and has the added plusses of a 1 draw and one of our greatest jockeys in the saddle in Weichong Marwing.

Young Gun

The exciting 3yo Gold Standard is the sole ‘young gun’ in the Met line-up, but has earned his place courtesy of some top – class recent performances.

Word has it that his trainer Glen Kotzen took a line through another 3yo in Bold Rex’ performance against his elders, when deciding to take his chances here.

Bold Rex finished just over 7 lengths behind Legal Eagle in the Queen’s Plate – and Kotzen rates Bold Rex substantially inferior to Gold Standard!

The Gr2 Selangor Cup winner has a scintillating turn of foot and got going a fraction too late when chasing

Cape Guineas winner William Longsword home, beaten a half length.

Beautifully drawn, with a handy 52kgs on his back and top man in Richard Fourie in the irons, Gold Standard will be out to disprove those who say he has it all to do.

Cape Derby runner-up Brazuca is well held by Legal Eagle and French Navy on their Gr1 Premier’s Champions Challenge clash last term.

The son of Teofilo may have needed it when finishing 3,80 lengths back with a no show behind Whisky Baron last time. He can’t be fancied.

Investec Derby winner It’s My Turn had both Marinaresco and Brazuca beaten at level weights over the course and distance a year ago. He was placed in the Gr1 Daily News 2000 and the July to show that he is not far off the best at his peak.

But this smart 4yo looks held by Whisky Baron on his most recent runs and the astute Piere Strydom remains his best hope of producing a shock result.

Wheel Of Fortune

Andrew Fortune rides Baritone, the third of the Snaith trio.

This Trippi colt was highly regarded early on and finished a highly commendable fifth and only 2,70 lengths behind Marinaresco at level weights in the Champions Cup at the end of last term.

His prep was overshadowed by a not persevered with ride in the Jet Master Stakes and that would surely have put a damper on any confidence on the part of his connections.

Weiho Marwing’s Gr1 winner Mac De Lago travels from Johannesburg and looks to have plenty to do.

The Australian-bred 5yo carried 4kgs more that It’s My Turn when beating him a half length in the July but went wrong in the Summer Cup and needs to build on his fair fourth in a small field in the Gr3 London News Stakes at his final prep a fortnight back.

His wide draw will not be in his favour.

Class Couplings

Two top local stables in Dean Kannemeyer and Joey Ramsden come to the party with two relatively longshot couplings.

Kannemeyer has the Gr3 Byerley Turk winner Mambo Mime and KZN Derby winner Cape Speed carrying the DKR flag.

Both are 100-1.

The 4yo Mambo Mime was identified early on as a possible Met horse and while he distinguished himself with some top-class SA Champions Season performances, we would have preferred to see more fire in his prep runs.

After a nice third behind Rabada in the Gr1 Daily News 2000, he was running on steadily in the July when finishing 3,85 lengths off The Conglomerate. He is 2kgs better off here with the Ramsden galloper and ran a fair third 3 lengths off Whisky Baron at his penultimate start.

His run in the Gr2 Peninsula Handicap last time out was hardly encouraging though.

Stablemate Cape Speed could well up his game with the blinkers fitted.

This five time winner ran a rather flat race in the Cape Summer Stayers and that coupled with the fact that he has drawn widest of all, deters suggestions of him as a possible placer.

Word is that he impressed Anthony Delpech in the blinkers at last Thurday’s gallops.

Ramsden Duo

Joey Ramsden’s Australianbred coupling is headed by 2016 July winner The Conglomerate.

The son of Lonhro gets the services of visiting international rider Frankie Dettori and will prefer the extra 400m of this contest after failing to spark in the L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate when 5,60 lengths behind Legal Eagle.

He ran a cracker at his penultimate start when beaten 1,30 lengths at level weights by Master Sabina in the Sansui Summer Cup. He will strip a fit horse on Saturday and must have a chance for the back-end of quartets.

Listed Darley Arabian winner Macduff is an interesting inclusion and we hear a change of tactics is planned.

The son of Street Cry is comfortably held by Whisky Baron on his last two starts and looks to have a massive ask at the weights.

Top Sort

Legal Eagle tops the betting boards. He tops the SP ratings. He has proven himself time and again.

We are looking no further, but suggest inclusions of Captain America, French Navy, Whisky Baron, Gold Standard and Bela-Bela for the doubters.

The Blue Label Telecoms Gr2 CAPE STAYERS at Kenilworth on Saturday

At The Rails

I

The R400 000 Gr2 Cape Stayers has undergone a few name changes over recent years. The 2800m round the course marathon remains a major crowd spectacle slap bang in the middle of the inaugural second Pick 6.

magine two Pick 6’s on a day. That’s an exciting thought and great innovation on the part of Saftote.

But two chances to win the big one means pressure on the punting budget and the need to find a few bankers along the way. This race is not one of them!

In The Mood We have been down the staying ranks road a few times.

There are few stars and the bulk are ageing handicappers who could turn up feeling different levels of enthusiasm for the challenge.

Helderberg Blue tops the SP ratings but while a class act on his day, he is not the most big hearted racer at the best of times. The 6yo cost a fortune at sale and while he has earned over a million, he owes us all.

The son of Jet Master has not been in the winner’s enclosure in over two years but showed some signs of life over ground during the SA Champions Season.

His best performance was a fast finishing second to Enaad in the Gr2 Gold Cup and while he did not distinguish himself in the Green Point Stakes or the Premier Trophy, staying may well be where he can grab a fifth win.

Party Time His stablemate Three Balloons is an average stayer who tends to plod late and has not put his head in front in over a year.

The 5yo has run two fair seconds and looks a back end of quartet prospect at best.

Piere Strydom has gotten to know Justin Snaith’s Danehill Dancer gelding Ovidio at his last two starts and the 6yo (there’s a few of them!) ran on steadily in the Gr3 Chairman’s Cup at his last start.

He is a decent proven stayer who won this race in good style last year and fit and ready, he could well make it a double.

Gold Cup winner Enaad has his first run in the Cape and has not sparked in five runs since winning the Gold Cup. Mike de Kock knows how to win this race though and the son of High Chaparral stays well.

Overdue Joey Ramsden’s 7yo Coltrane has not been at his best of late and ran a quiet fourth at his last start in a small field in the Gr3 Chairman’s Cup. It could be argued that the son of Giant’s Causeway is overdue to win the race – having finished in second position the last three years. He is drawn wide but Joey gets them fit.

The Marwing brothers team up with the Silvano filly Zafira, who comes in on bottom weight and looks to have a shout at best.

She is 4kgs better off with Enaad on her Gold Cup 4,55 lengths finish and cannot be disregarded.

Krambambuli ran fourth and only 2,90 lengths behind Whisky Baron in the Peninsula Handicap after a very decent second to Icy Trail in the Premier Trophy.

The son of Black Minnaloushe is not guaranteed to stay the trip but must be a major threat if he does.

Gauteng visitor Arch Rival failed to show in the Cape Summer Stayers Handicap and does not inspire confidence on his current form.

Disappointing Royal Badge won the Cape Summer Stayers in promising style but then failed to confirm to follow through in the Chairman’s Cup when fancied.

East Cape Derby winner Captain Splendid has proven a bit inconsistent and ran 8,70 lengths behind Royal Badge and has been rather disappointing.

Glen Puller makes a bold move with the Warm White Night gelding Solar Night who steps up in ground after decent form over shorter.

Gr2 Cape Stayers PAST WINNERS

The class stayer Ovidio looks to have enjoyed the perfect prep

Vaughan Marshall’s 7yo Gothic has been formless for some time and appears to have lost his enthusiasm for racing.

Oh So Modus is a typically one paced stayer who has changed stables from Renata du Plessis in PE to Paul Reeves at Milnerton. He looks outgunned in this line-up.

Investec Gr1 CAPE DERBY at Kenilworth on Saturday

P

It has been seven long years since Joey Ramsden unsaddled an Investec Cape Derby winner.

The Milnerton conditioner holds an edge in numbers with three of the ten runners in Saturday’s prestigious classic. But are the trio good enough to hold rising star Horizon?

ast sales record-breaker Horizon faces his biggest test to date at his sixth outing after his confidence boosting success in the Gr3 Politician Stakes three weeks ago.

Learning how to race now, the son of Dynasty impressed in that traditional Derby Trial and he has enjoyed what amounts to a mostly perfect prep into the race.

Anton Marcus has jumped ship from onetime boom 3yo Table Bay to ride the Brett Crawford-trained Edict Of Nantes – both race in the Mayfair Speculators flag.

The latter finished a half length behind Table Bay in the Cape Guineas and the only conclusion we can draw for the switch is that Marcus feels that Table Bay won’t stay the 2000m and was stopping in the Guineas.

Edict Of Nantes impressed with late storming runs in the Cape Classic and the Selangor Cup and looks a massive runner here.

Ramsden Trio

Heading the Ramsden attack, the SP toprated Table Bay enjoys the services of the globetrotting Frankie Dettori and is the officially highest rated of the ten runners by some way.

It would be folly to write off the son of Redoute’s Choice after two one-paced thirds over shorter. But the jury is out and 1400m may well be his chop.

The Gr3 Langerman placer Newlands ran on well for second behind Horizon in the

Politician Stakes, but was well beaten and should battle to reverse matters with the BassRobinson colt.

Third of the Ramsdens is the Listed Irridescence Stakes winner Captain Gambler.

The half-sister to Dubai exported Winter Derby star Liquid Mercury may take to the extra ground.

Gr2 Golden Horseshoe winner Zodiac Ruler has not quite put it all together in three runs a s a 3yo.

The Australian bred is technically held by Table Bay, Edict Of Nantes and Elevated on his Guineas run and tries the 2000m for the first time.

His sire won over 1200m /1400m at 2 and was considered high class over a mile at 3. On his dam side there is also no guarantee that he will find the 2000m. But Piere Strydom is a magician, so he cannot be written off!

Slowly

Elevated has been brought along slowly by the Burger-Van Reenen partnership and takes his place here after an eyecatching late run for fourth – albeit a well beaten one – behind William Longsword in the Cape Guineas.

He has been a model of consistency and had run five consecutive seconds (including two features) after winning his maiden.

While appearing to be held by Table Bay, the son of Elsuive Fort looks bred for this trip – and that could be the big leveller. A late foal and still fairly backward, he looks to be an exciting prospect for next term.

2014

KZN Raider

Winter Is Coming is the sole KZN representative in the race. Yet to be tried beyond a mile, the nicely bred Western Winter colt could be anything – but will have to raise his game to be competitive.

He beat local KZN boom unbeaten youngster Red Chesnut Road last time out and won his polytrack maiden by 8 lengths at his third start.

Ollivander is the second of the Bass-Robinson runners.

The son of Silvano ran on nicely for third and 2 lengths behind Horizon in the Gr3 Politician Stakes last time.

He is 3kgs worse off here but is another who could enjoy the extra 200m and could knocking on the back door of quartets door.

Omaha Tribe probably earned his berth here courtesy of a smooth handicap victory over older horses at his last start over 2500m. That said, it is difficult seeing him playing a part on what he has shown overall to date.

Pace

The 2000m trip opens the contest. There is no guarantee of a pace but two yards have back-up fire to create one if circumstances dictate.

Horizon has improved smartly and will get every inch of it. The classy Edict Of Nantes finishes too late – like

a horse crying out for this ground. Table Bay doesn’t look like he goes all the way. Elevated and Zodiac Ruler are the dark horses.

We are going with Horizon to hold Edict Of Nantes, with Zodiac Ruler in third.

2015

2016

A Derby Dynasty If you’d want to breed a Derby winner, you’d probably go to Highlands star stallion Dynasty. Horizon bids to give his sire his fourth winner in six years on Saturday after Jackson (2012), Legislate (2014) and It’s My Turn (2016).

A winner of the race in 2003 from draw 10 in the fastest time in 15 years, Dynasty went on to win the July from draw 20 and was awarded Equus Horse of the Year and Champion 3yo colt.

He was retired to stud after an offer of R50m to send him to Dubai was rejected.

His first crop made him the Equus Outstanding sire of 2010 and he became the first 3yo Horse of the Year in the history of SA to produce a 3yo Horse of the Year from his first crop. This colt, Irish Flame, was interestingly part-owned by the MD of Investec who sponsor the Derby. The Cape Derby was first run in 1925 as the Western Province Derby over 1800.

In 1946 the name was amended and run as the ‘Cape of Good Hope Derby’. The Birch Bros bred the first 4 home in the race, and the winner, Feltos, became the first horse to win both the WP Guineas and Cape Derby. In 1949 the Derby moved to Kenilworth permanently. In 1976 Gigantic became the first horse to win the Derby over its new distance of 2000 meters. Gigantic proved a tough and versatile campaigner, winning both the Gold Bowl and Holiday Inns.

In 1993 Eli’s Truth pulled off the Guineas/ Derby double downing top filly Vesta in the process. He was one of just four foals in his sire’s, Eli’s Star, first crop! In 1999 the filly Dog Wood won at her final career start.

In 2006 the Derby was sponsored by Investec Bank for the first time. In a thrilling finish, original winner Money Bags was demoted to second, and Floatyourboat awarded the race.

Floatyourboat proved himself a classy performer, subsequently winning the Gr2 Merchants and finishing second to legendary stablemate Pocket Power in the Queen’s Plate.

R1 000 000 KUDA SPRINT at Kenilworth on Saturday

T

The inaugural running of the R1 million Kuda Sprint was unsurprisingly oversubscribed. The golden carrot of a near instant return on investment has set up the mouthwatering prospects of a hard-fought contest down the Kenilworth 1200m straight.

he R625 000 first cheque makes it plenty to play four in this 2yo contest restricted to eligible graduates of the 2016 Lanzerac CTS Ready To Run Sale as well as the 2016 Emperors Palace CTS Ready To Run Sale.

Weights There is nothing complicated about the weights – winners, of which there are four, get 60kgs, with maidens lumping 58kgs.

The two fillies receive a sex allowance of 2,5kgs.

The final field was at the sole discretion of Kenilworth Racing in consultation with the Handicapper. Winners and placed horses (1st to 4th) were given preference. Thereafter, all first timers and (unplaced horses chosen by the panel) were drawn by ballot conducted by a Stipendiary Steward.

There were 17 horses that were placed (including winners). These were the first horses included.

The balance of the acceptors were balloted for the three remaining spots.

The three horses that came

in by ballot were Sunday Falls, Wall Street Trader and the R350 000 unraced Rikers Island.

Scant Form There is little form to go on in this first leg of the Place Accumulator.

Justin Snaith’s bottomweight Lacerta comes in on top of the ratings.

The daughter of Twice Over is a twice raced maiden who has run two good places. She ran on well when fourth and 3,30 lengths behind the highly regarded Namibia last time.

Gold Image is the second filly in the field and beat the boys on a smooth well-supported debut.

The daughter of Horse Chestnut is reputed to be quite special.

Dynasty’s son Barrack Street beat subsequent winner Bold Respect on debut over 800m at Kenilworth on 10 December.

He is one of five Sean Tarry runners in the race.

Bold Respect beat Volcanic Sunset at his second start over 1000m and – like many of them – can only improve over the extra 200m.

Recent gutsy Turffontein

winner Puget Sound makes the long road trip down for the exciting young Onamission Syndicate.

Gavin Lerena sticks with this colt who impressed beating Alex The Great on debut.

Piere Strydom also stays with his debut winning ride Sir Frenchie for Justin Snaith.

The Australian bred ran on strongly to beat Bernie on debut and will relish the experience under the belt and the extra.

Mike de Kock's debut winner Puget Sound is on a mission

Star Material Apollo Star is the sole Ramsden representative.

The son of Alado ran on steadily on a 100-1 debut for fourth and 3,75 lengths back to Bold Respect.

Bernie, one of three BassRobinson runners, is 2kgs better off for a 1,75 length debut beating by Sir Frenchie.

Stablemate Big Mistake ran green when beaten 2,60 lengths by Barrack Street on debut.

The second of the Mike de Kock team is Captain My Captain, who has been beaten twice as favourite.

His conqueror last time, Dutch Philip, looks very promising.

Well Beaten Henry Tudor was a well beaten third behind the filly Gold Image on debut.

Wonderwall finished ahead of Captain My Captain last time when unfancied on debut behind Dutch Philip.

Tony Nassif is a rare but welcome visitor as he brings the What A Winter colt Snow Boarding to the Cape. This fellow ran a low-key fourth on his 800m Turffontein debut in early December and will need to improve to feature.

Sunday Falls was beaten

8,35 lengths by Barrack Street on debut.

Varside has had two outings and will need to improve to beat the likes of Sir Frenchie.

Volcanic Sunset improved on an unplaced debut to run a 2,25 length second to Bold Respect at his second start.

Frankie Dettori rides Vortex Star for Sean Tarry. The son of Pathfork was quietly fancied when running green on debut and 2,25 lengths behind Sir Frenchie.

Stable jockey S’manga Khumalo rides Warrior’s Rest who started 17-10 and finished

0,40 lengths behind Vortex Star in that race.

Wall Street Trader will have to improve dramatically on his 66-1 unplaced debut effort.

Winners We are inclined to side with the winners , with the fillies, who naturally tend to be more forward at this stage coming into the picture.

The prospects of an upset result are not beyond the realms of possibility, without a standout ‘hot number’ in the line-up.

9 Class sprinter Real Princess tries the mile in a tricky race

Gr1 Majorca Stakes PAST WINNERS

2012

Klawervlei Gr1 MAJORCA STAKES at Kenilworth on Saturday

I

Mother Russia, Dancer’s Daughter and Sun Classique are just three of the past winners on the illustrious R1 million Gr1 Majorca Stakes honour roll. Saturday’s renewal of this prestigious fillies and mares mile at weight-for-age boasts plenty of depth and looks to be one of the most open in years.

n the absence of a standout star performer, and with draws and recent form slumps adding to the puzzle, this has to be one of the trickiest races on the card. The three talented 3yo’s could even surprise their seniors.

Bass Hat-Trick?

The Bass family are aiming for a hat-trick of successes after the now retired Trippi flyer Inara won it in 2015 and 2016. And their hopes will rest squarely on the shoulders of the frustrating Silver Mountain.

The 4yo daughter of Silvano has failed to put a winning effort together since her dazzling burst in the Cape Fillies Guineas in December 2015.

For a filly labelled a ‘champion’ and ‘future star’ that record is not good enough and excuses aside, there will be hopes that her fast finishing third behind Bela-Bela in the Paddock Stakes three weeks ago will be the spark that lights the flame of a revival.

Against her will be her wide outside draw.

Her stablemate Nightingale also had no luck with the barrier position but has been threatening to win again soon and was only 0,75 lengths behind Silver Mountain in the Paddock Stakes.

Prior to that she chased Goodtime Gal home in the Gr3 Victress Stakes and on her best showings during the SA Champions Season last term, she is close to Silver Mountain.

Tries Ground

Dean Kannemeyer saddles the highest rated galloper in the race in the Gr1 SA Fillies Sprint winner Real Princess.

This high-class half sister to Guineas winner William Longsword has only ever tried the mile once and that was an unplaced effort in the 2015 KRA Fillies Guineas.

She has won twice over 1400m and sprints like a filly that will stay on.

Her recent disappointing sprint efforts have no doubt forced her trainer to try the mile again. At her best now at 5, she is well drawn and topping the SP ratings, a massive effort can be expected from her.

Bad Traveller

KZN raider Olma has her first outing in the Cape and is very decent on her day.

The daughter of Dynasty has been a notoriously bad traveller to Gauteng and her connections will be hoping that she finds the Cape more to her liking.

She stayed on without any real fire for fourth in the Flamboyant Stakes last time out – which was her best

run in a while. Further back she ran Inara to a half length in the Gr1 Garden Province Stakes – so is not half bad at her best!

Brett Crawford’s Alexis has had only three runs since beating Silver Mountain in that Gr2 Tibouchina Stakes thriller last term.

She has drawn very wide and will need to put her best foot forward to challenge here.

Her 3yo stablemate Lady Of The House has drawn against the paint and looked dangerous late when just missing the places in the Fillies Guineas.

The well bred daughter of Dynasty gets the services of Anton Marcus on Saturday and should be involved in the finish.

The third of the Crawford trio is stakes sprinter Beach Goddess, who tries the mile for the first time. She has a good turn of foot and is well drawn. A chance if she gets the trip.

Frustrating

Dennis Drier has the top rated 3yo in the race in Philanthropist’s smart daughter Sail.

It has been a frustrating season for this filly with a win in four jumps but a stakes victory still eluding her.

Her 3 odd lengths off Just Sensual in the Fillies Guineas and then Bela-Bela in the

1 Ebony Flyer 2 Frequent Flyer 3 Barcelona Winter

Paddock Stakes show that she is right there up with the class. We’d think that she is best ridden cold and a placing looks very attainable on Saturday if things go her way.

Gr2 Golden Slipper winner Final Judgement has drawn well at 2 and has just failed to go through with it after a good start to the summer when going close to Ektifaa in the Choice Carriers Fillies Championship.

The daughter of Judpot had excuses in the Fillies Guineas with a slipped saddle and ran a meritorious 2,35 lengths off Bela-Bela in the Paddock Stakes.

She looks more effective over the 200m shorter here and can be a dangerous pacesetter with the master Richard Fourie in the saddle.

Snaith Duo

The Justin Snaith pair of recent PE feature winner A Time To Dream (a wide draw

to contend with) and the gutsy Star Express are not without hope.

The latter is marginally preferred after her top-class effort when just shaded out of the place cheques in the Paddock Stakes.

The very capable Gr3 Diana Stakes winner Captain’s Flame ran a great race in the Jet Master Stakes and is bound to be competitive as she reverts to her own company.

She won three features on the trot last year and hails from an in-form stable.

Goodtime Gal found Captain’s Flame her nemesis – running second at all of those three feature wins!

She was eventually rewarded with a feature success in the Gr3 Victress Stakes before finding the Paddock Stakes a bit tough. Gavin Lerena stays with her and she runs from a good draw.

It looks tough for the rest.

Top Rated

Real Princess is the top rated mare in the race and oozes class. If Keagan De Melo can settle her she can go very close.

Silver Mountain and Nightingale are too classy to ignore and if overcoming those wide draws will be right there.

Lady Of The House and Sail are the progressive youngsters.

It should be a humdinger of a race!

You Can Bet On It!

The Majorca Stakes will offer one of three Quartet carryover opportunities on the Sun Met Day card. The tricky race 7 Quartet pool will start with a carryover of R100,000 and is expected to reach R700,000.

History will also be made at the Sun Met meeting when punters will have the opportunity to participate in two Pick 6 bets.

With 13 races run at a single meeting for the first time the decision to have two Pick 6 bets looks an obvious option.

The first will run, as normal, from Race 4 to Race 9. A carryover of R1.5 million has already been announced and the pool is likely to reach R7 million.

The second Pick 6 starts in Race 8 and will run through to Race 13. A carryover of

R500,000 was announced on Monday and the pool is forecast to reach R2.2 million.

The other very popular bet on the day is the Quartet and on the Sun Met, which is Race 9 on the card, the pool will kick off with a carryover of R600,000 and is likely to rise to R5 million.

Race 13 will have an extra R50,000 in the pool which is expected to reach R450,000.

There will also be two Jackpots, the first running from Race 5 to Race 8 and the second from Race 9 to Race 12. Jackpot 2 will be boosted by a R100,000 carryover with the pool reaching around R1 million.

The BiPot kicks off in Race 2 and a R50,000 carryover is likely to produce a pool of R500,000.

$500 000 CTS SPRINT at Kenilworth on Saturday

E

At current rates of exchange, the CTS Sprint carries a stake of around R6 750 000.

The winning owner pockets half of that.

With sales prices ranging from Louis Goosen’s ‘cheapie’ Great Britain filly at R125 000, to the bolder investment of R2 million for Joey Ramsden’s magnificent Western Winter colt, it is difficult to knock a concept that creates happy winners.

ven in Hollywood it is difficult finding 73 odd seconds of effort that can produce a payout of R3 375 000 and after close on a half century in horseracing, ownerbreeder Veronica Foulkes must be looking forward to Saturday and the participation of her magnificent Captain Al gelding Sergeant Hardy with great anticipation.

The Justin Snaith-trained stakes winner is the highest rated of the 20 3yo’s lining up for the sprint leg in a race where all carry 60kgs, with a 2,5kg sex allowance for the girls.

The race is restricted to eligible graduates of the 2015 Cape Premier Yearling Sale, the 2015 CTS March Yearling Sale and the 2015 Emperors Palace Select Yearling Sale. Last year’s inaugural CTS Million Dollar, which was run over 1400m, has thus effectively been split into two races – a sprint and a mile contest. That means more winners and more diverse appeal.

The two sons of Captain Al, Sergeant Hardy and Always In Charge, stand out head and shoulders above their 18 opponents.

The Gr3 Cape Of Good Hope Nursery winner Sergeant Hardy has won 5 of his 7 starts, despite serious breathing issues that would have retarded the progress of a lesser light.

His 0,75 length second to Safe Harbour in the Lanzerac Ready To Run Stakes was probably his greatest effort and Justin Snaith felt that he would have won had jockey Anthony Delpech known him better.

Back down the straight at his last start, he was simply too strong for his opposition and won well. He looks to be getting better with each run.

Gr1 Gold Medallion winner Always In Charge enjoys the course and distance. He bounced back strongly at his first run as a 3yo when returning from a 5 month break to win from what looked a hopeless position, beating Orion’s Quest going away.

He was well fancied from a nice draw in the Lanzerac Ready To Run Stakes but faded out to seventh and four lengths off the winner. He

looks held by Sergeant Hardy on that run but may well be a different proposition over the sprint track.

Joey Ramsden’s Attenborough, at R2 million the most expensive horse in the race, also runs in the Mayfair Speculators silks – one of six to give the commentator a headache!

The handsome colt has never been out of the money in all nine starts but is quite well held

by Sergeant Hardy.

Elusive Path is the first of the 90 something merit rated geldings and finished just 0,30 lengths behind Sergeant Hardy in the Lanzerac. The son of Pathfork showed good pace last time to beat Cuban Emerald over the course and distance and could hang on for minor place money.

Recent Gr2 Sceptre Stakes winner Live Life and the unbeaten Gr1 SA Nursery winner Cloth Of Cloud head the fairer sex attack.

Live Life beat the multiple Gr1 winner Carry On Alice over the course and distance last time and gets asked a big question here.

Cloth Of Cloud returns from a 39 week break and missed what would have been a vital prep in mid January.

The daughter of Captain Al is quite quirky but did won on debut at this track a year ago and makes for an interesting runner.

It looks tough for the rest, but this is horseracing for major stakes and anything could happen.

Sean Tarry has another trio of good fillies to back up his attack.

Myfunnyvalentine and Exquisite Touch are both stakes performers and not without hope if the top-rated echelon put a foot wrong.

Louis Goosen makes the long trip down from the Vaal with the recent Listed Swallow Stakes winner, Hashtag Strat. This speedball gets thrown into the deep end and it is good to see the jocokey loyalty as they stay loyal to Deon Sampson who rode such a pearler last time.

Duncan Howell’s Blaze Of Mystery and the highly regarded A Womens Way are the lone KZN representatives in the field. Their first visit to race in the Cape will be a baptism of fire.

$500 000 CTS MILE at Kenilworth on Saturday

T

It has been some years since the Cape Guineas winner has faced the Cape Fillies Guineas victress head on in their very next start after the classic success.

he clash between the Klawervlei bred pair of Vaughan Marshall’s William Longsword and the Joey Ramsden-trained Just Sensual adds a classy dimension to the richly endowed CTS Mile.

We have already done the sums for this life-changing dollar denominated sales race which is restricted to eligible graduates of the 2015 Cape Premier Yearling Sale, the 2015 CTS March Yearling Sale and the 2015 Emperors Palace Select Yearling Sale.

Power Hand It is serious money in anybody’s book and South Africa’s champion owners Mayfair Speculators hold another strong hand, with a total of 11 horses carrying the famous ‘springbok’ silks between the 40 carded runners in the CTS Sprint and the CTS Mile.

They thus have a strong hand in terms of both quality and quantity in this event with the prospective soon-to-be Klawervlei stallion William Longsword taking on the Cape Fillies Guineas winner Just Sensual, on whom Frankie Dettori will have his work cut out to overcome the widest draw.

Anton Marcus takes the ride on Captain Al’s high quality son William Longsword, who shot to prominence with a gutsy win over Sun Met hopeful Gold Standard in the Cape Guineas. The striking bay colt could well be making his swansong appearance here and all connected to him will be keen to make it a champagne appearance.

Wide Gate Just Sensual is one of a Joey Ramsden quintet and what a shame it is that the Cape Fillies Guineas winner has drawn in Youngsfield Military Base. The R2 million daughter of Dynasty, much like her Gr1 winning male counterpart, shot to fame on the occasion of her stunning late burst to beat Safe Harbour in the fillies’ classic.

Lightly raced, the winner of 3 of her 4 starts now takes on some decent males and will be hard pressed to make it four on the bounce.

The Gr3 Starling Stakes winner She’s A Giver is yet to show in her two Cape starts and was beaten 5,75 lengths by Just Sensual in the Guineas.

She faded disappointingly when dropping in class at her next start and has a chance to redeem her big reputation at her third start in the Cape.

Very Fit Safe Harbour has been a model of consistency since her big money win the Lanzerac Ready To Run Stakes. The daughter of Elusive Fort has had two hard fought runner-up finishes since and gave the impression of a filly who did not stay the 1800m, when going down 0,40 lengths to BelaBela in the Paddock Stakes.

She will strip a fit filly on Saturday.

Geoff Woodruff saddles the Gr2 Dingaans winner Singapore Sling who gets the rails position after a fair 4.60 length seventh placed finish in the Cape Guineas.

The son of Philanthropist could improve again and warrants place consideration.

Janoobi finished 5,45 lengths behind Singapore Sling in the Dingaans and has a wide draw, coupled with the services of Piere Strydom for his first Cape start.

Snaith African Night Sky is the first of the Snaith runners. The son of Dynasty has won 2 of 3 starts against lesser and gets his chance to show how good he really is. His good draw and Richard Fourie will add value to his effort.

Stablemate Copper Force didn’t have the same luck with the draw but is another making his way through the ranks. The R70 000 bargain Buy has won 2 of 5 starts and tries a mile for the first time.

We have mentioned that Joey Ramsden has a strong hand and the two Mambo In Seattle colts I Travel Light and Dancer are both decent sorts.

I Travel Light beat Met hopeful Gold Standard in a PE feature three runs back and disposed of some established older handicappers at his last start. Ramsden also saddles the lightly tried Australian bred A New Dawn, who ran a 3,15 length fourth to Gold Standard in the Selangor Cup. Sean Tarry’s recent Vaal winner Tilbury Fort has drawn very wide but ran a cracking race when runner-up in the Listed Secretariat Stakes at his penultimate start.

Star The out of province form is difficult to collate with the local star William Longsword, who looks very capable of winning his final start.

His forward racing style will also suit Anton Marcus and they will run them ragged – with Just Sensual looking the most likely to be doing the chasing.

Betting World Gr1 CAPE FLYING CHAMPIONSHIP at Kenilworth on Saturday

T

The duel for speed supremacy in the 2016/17 Cape Summer Of Champions reaches a climax at Kenilworth on Saturday with the 48th running of the R1 million Gr1 Cape Flying Championship. SA champion trainer Sean Tarry has a very strong hand in the 1000m contest.

arry looks set for a wonderful day and this weight-for-age affair is yet another race he could well dominate with a top-class gelding and champion filly carrying his flag.

Top Form

Unbeaten as a 5yo, Trip To Heaven achieved a well deserved Gr2 double when skating clear to win the Diadem Stakes last time. That followed his excellent Gr2 Merchants win at home on Summer Cup day.

At 120, he is the highest rated sprinter in the country (without a Gr1 under the belt) and looks fit and ready to win.

The big question mark will

be the 1000m trip as he did come on late in the Diadem.

And the fact that S’manga Khumalo has opted to ride his star female stablemate will naturally be a concern to the conspiracy theorist brigade.

His replacement Grant van Niekerk knows his way down the Kenilworth 1000m and will give him every chance.

His stablemate, treble Gr1 winner Carry On Alice can mix it with the boys as she showed when winning the 2016 Gr1 Computaform Sprint in great style.

That said, she has not yet reached her peak this term, with two runner-up finishes achieved in the Gr2 Southern Cross Stakes and the Gr2 Sceptre Stakes at her last two starts.

This third run after a break to could be her chance to shine and she would not be a surprise winner.

JR’s Trio

Joey Ramsden has a decent trio, headed by Mercury Sprint winner Red Ray. This 6yo entire was having his first outing in 7 months when running on far too late for a 4,20 length fourth behind Trip To Heaven in the Diadem.

He has never won over the minimum trip and the son of Western Winter will have to be a lot sharper than that last effort to challenge on Saturday, despite his 1 kg turnaround at the with Trip To Heaven.

His lightly raced stablemate Brutal Force has his first run

Highveld

BREEDERS ASSOCIATION

Subsequent to the successful meeting in late 2016, the inaugural meeting of the HTBA will be held at Heversham Park Farm at 12h00 on Saturday 4 February 2017.

All interested persons are welcome to attend.

Lunch will be provided.

For further information contact Fred Brons: 083 325 8161

since chasing Gulf Storm home in this race last year.

While fitness will be a concern, he is very effective over this trip. Watch the betting market.

Piere Strydom has switched from Talktothestars to ride Tar Heel, the third of the Ramsden trio. This very quick son of Var was bumped in the Listed Southeaster Sprint when fading late for fifth behind Tevez, but is very effective over what is his favourite course and distance.

He does look well held by Trip To Heaven though.

Star Talk

So why would Striker get off Talktothestars?

Coenie de Beer’s’ barefooted son of Overlord ran a poor race in the Diadem but was found to be not striding out.

He showed terrific speed when fifth and only 1,70 lengths off Gulf Storm in this race in 2016 and could be a danger if back in good order and running to his true ability. He comes out tops on the SP ratings and will be ridden by visiting Frenchman, Stephan Pasquier. Candice Bass-Robinson saddles the revitalised Tevez, who followed his Southeaster Sprint win with a smart, although well beaten, second to Trip To Heaven in the Diadem.

The son of Caesour is in fine fettle and effective over the 1000m – he needs to go into bigger perms.

Out Of Sorts

Last year’s winner Gulf Storm has not found anything near his best form and failed to fire in the Southeaster and the Diadem. His stablemate Search Party is preferred and followed up his Gr2 Merchants score with a fair third 3.80 lengths off Trip To Heaven in the Diadem.

The son of Captain Al shows good pace and could be effective over the 1000m if allowed to stride. Mike Azzie bravely ventures into ‘enemy territory’ with the only 3yo

2014

in the sixteen horse field in Var’s progressive son, Rivarine.

This fellow, whose dam River Jetez won the big one on this day seven years ago, is tested in Gr1 waters for the first time as a 3yo and showed his wellbeing with an effortless win against weaker in the Gr3 Lebelo Sprint on New Year’s Eve. Multiple Gr1 placed as a 2yo, the talented four-time winning speedster is quite quirky and it will be interesting to see how he takes to the challenge.

Class

It takes a decent sort to win this – the honour roll is littered with stars. We are going with

2015

2016

a Tarry exacta and suggest that Trip To Heaven will handle the blitz and be good enough to hold the fiery Carry On Alice, with Red Ray and Tevez the dangers.

Rivarine has to travel and if that goes well and he is as good as we believe he is, then he could upset the applecart.

But he will have to bring his A-game to the party.

Age Of Speed The Cape Flying Championship was launched in 1969 over the Milnerton 1000m and run for a stake of R4000. The late Phillipi based Theo De Klerk saddled the very first winner Benzol, for his wife Lavinia. While he never won the race himself, multiple champion sire Captain Al is represented by two sons and two daughters in Saturday’s race.

His outstanding daughter Carry On Alice ran third behind Gulf Storm last year and looks to put in a big performance this time round to add to the impressive fairer sex record.

Var is represented by four runners on Saturday and his champion daughter Via Africa won the race in 2014, while yet another Var star in Val De Ra, dam of Miss Frankel who made her debut last Saturday, won it two years prior to that.

The outstanding Australian-bred Laisserfaire won the race in consecutive years in 2001 and 2002. In earlier years, Alec Soteriadis trained the Scott Brothers bred Leta under John Garcia to win in 1970. It was to be eleven years before the fillies would strike again. Retired Mike Bass, who has an outstanding win and place record in this Gr1 showpiece saddled the brilliant Sweet Chestnut to win in 1981.

Paarl based Glen Kotzen sent out Nobely Born in 1997, but does not have a runner this year. In the 47 year history of the race, the greatest winner is surely the ‘Iron Horse’ Sentinel, who won the race for three years in succession from 1973.

The 1975 Jack Stubbs Memorial - then the name of the Cape Flying Championship - over 1000m at Milnerton is remembered by many as the cherry on top of a fabulous career for Sentinel.

On a perfect Cape summer day, seven-year-old Sentinel whipped talented speedster Harry Hotspur, with two other precocious youngsters way back in third and fourth – remember Archangel and Yataghan?!

Other multiple winners were Free Enterprise, Signor Amigo, Flobayou, Cordocelli, Laisserfaire, Nhlavini and present day Drakenstein stallion, What A Winter. The race was switched to Kenilworth from 1996 and the brilliant Eric Sands trained Flobayou thus holds a rare distinction of being the only horse to win the Gr1 sprint at both Milnerton and Kenilworth.

Anton Marcus, who rides prospective future stallion Red Ray on Saturday, rode Jet Master to victory in this race in 2000.

Sun Met Fashion Stakes

If fashion is more your game than form, the Sun Met theme of ‘Decades Of Glamour’ will be on the top of your selections for Saturday.

“With its iconic red sash, Mumm Champagne has accompanied the world’s most daring and glamorous social affairs for almost two centuries and made its mark as an icon of celebration.

Building on our partnerships of the Melbourne Cup and Kentucky Derby, we look forward to bringing our daring spirit to life on the African continent in the French ethos of ‘art de vivre’, celebrating heritage and glamour in all its forms”, said Etienne CassutoBrand Manager of Mumm.

The idea is to allow the public to pick their favourite fashion decade, source their outfits with their friends and enhance their overall experience of The Sun Met celebrated with Mumm.

For some suggestions www.capetownlately.co.za have described each decade loosely as follows:

1920’s The Great Gatsby

An era of feminine selfexpression where waists dropped and hemlines rose. The Flapper look was the rage, with long necklaces, cloche hats and

chemise or shift dresses storming to the fore.

1930’s - Vintage

Known as the Golden Age of Glamour for women’s fashion an era of escapism and glamourous Hollywood starlets. Favouring simple art deco lines the style moved to smaller cloche hats, skirt hems dropped and broad shouldered, puffed sleeves entered the fray.

1940’s - Retro

A decade defined by the war years, the padded or puffed shoulder was the dominant look. The Silhouette with broad square shoulders and trim waist and hips was desired. This was complimented by tiny hats, large bags and nylon stockings.

1950’s - Polka Dots

This decade is influenced by two silhouettes, the wide circle skirt and the pencil skirt. Ball gowns were complimented by elbow length gloves and sparkling

jewelry. Summer dresses also incorporated floral and polka dot prints. Chanel introduced suit jackets and slim skirts in highly textured tweeds.

1960’s Flower Power

The era where no skirt was too short brought the arrival of the mini skirt and hot pants. The hippy revolution was about long hair, long legs and long nights. Bellbottoms bubbled to the surface. The swinging sixties were defined by a number of icons from the gamine supermodel Twiggy to the “original” first lady Jackie Kennedy who brought us skirt suits, pillbox hats and supersized sunglasses.

1970’s - Disco

This decade was all about “freedom”, “identity” and “personal expression”.

The hippie culture continued and fashion resulting from this period displayed rebellion.

From mini-skirts to wide lapel suits, knee high boots and lace onsie’s the 70’s had it all.

1980’s - Glam Rock

One word comes to mind when you think of 80’s: BIG. It was a time of excess and over-thetop flamboyance. Shows like Dallas and Dynasty depicted bedazzled evening wear studded with sequins and beads. Metallic dress colours like silver and gold also added some shine to this decade.

1990’s - Denim

This decade saw a return to minimalist fashion.

Supermodels such as Cindy Crawford, Naomi Campbell and Eva Herzigova towered over the

2017 Gr1 Sun Met

The time for talking will be long over when the famous fifteen are despatched from the 2000m at 17h10 on Saturday.

hampion trainer Sean Tarry saddles a powerful double header in current Horse of the Year and dual Queen’s Plate finisher, Legal Eagle.

Legal Eagle finished second to Smart Call in last year’s race, but has done little wrong since, adding three more Group 1’s and a Group 2 to his CV. Legal Eagle shoulders joint top weight of 60kgs, has the services of Anton Marcus in the saddle and has drawn 9.

The second half of the Tarry offensive, 5yo Count Dubois gelding French Navy, will be having his start since his end of season break.

Marwing’s Mac

Weichong Marwing has the ride and the pair have an impost of 58kgs and have drawn 1. Sean said, “Obviously I”m very pleased with French Navy’s draw. Legal Eagle could have been worse. It’s not panic stations, but we’re not over the moon.” Weiho Marwing saddles Mac De Lago for a second bite at the Met cherry after a mid-field finish in 2016.

The 5yo Encosta De Lago gelding also shoulders 60kgs, has drawn wide at 14 and will have Aldo Domeyer in the irons next Saturday.

Weiho commented, “It’s not

the best draw, but we’ve been dealt the cards and will work around it. His prep has gone very well and I’m very happy with where he is now.

He’s a horse that has a lot of ability and I’m confident he’ll give his best.”

JR’s Happy

The charismatic Joey Ramsden mounts a two pronged attack.

Asked about his draws, Joey commented, “I’m very happy with the 7 draw for The Conglomerate and Frankie is a brilliant jockey.”

Macduff has drawn 11 out of 15 and Joey says, “I’m not too fussed about the draw.

The Kenilworth track is running very quick this year and we made the mistake of trying to place him too handy last time, but he has a good form line on Whisky Baron.”

Someone who is smiling is Candice Bass-Robinson.

She saddles Marinaresco who will jump from gate 2 and has regular rider Grant van Niekerk on board. Her comment was short and sweet, “He’s got a good draw at last, so I’m happy!”

The 4yo Silvano gelding will carry 59.5kgs.

Snaith Trio

The Snaith Racing team saddles three runners.

The 4yo Dynasty gelding It’s My Turn carries 59.5, has drawn 6 and will be ridden by his Cape Derby winning partner, Piere Strydom. Jono says, “We couldn’t be happier with the position we’ve drawn as Piere would love to have him closer to the pace this time out.” The 4yp Trippi colt, Baritone has drawn 3, carries 57.5kgs and Andrew Fortune has been engaged for the ride. “Andrew will have him just off the pace from this draw. He is trying this trip for the first time and it’s difficult to assess his chances.”

The diminutive grey filly BelaBela is sure to be a favourite with purists and day trippers alike. She has a plum draw of 5, carries 57kgs and Anthony Delpech, who flew down to ride her Met gallop this week, will take the reins again next Saturday.

Jono says, “Anthony was very impressed with her gallop and with the 5 draw she has to be in the frame, but obviously it’s difficult against the boys.”

Baron Brett

Brett Crawford saddles Captain America and Whisky Baron.

Captain America goes for his second tilt at the Met title and has a 10 draw and regular partner, Corne Orffer in the saddle and 58kgs to shoulder.

Gr2 Peninsula Handicap winner, Whisky Baron has jockey log leader and Ridgemont retained rider Greg Cheyne in the irons, an 8 draw to go with his no 8 saddle cloth and 57.5kgs to carry to post.

Brett said Whisky Baron has a “fair draw”. He was less pleased about Captain America’s 10 draw, but was characteristically philosophical. “It’s not the best draw and we would obviously prefer lower, but I think we’ll be alright from there.”

Luck Needed

Gauteng challenger Johan Janse van Vuuren saddles the Teofilio import, Brazuca who has shown himself at home on the Kenilworth track with top class finishes in the 2015 Cape Guineas and 2016 Cape Derby.

He has drawn 12, carries 57.5kgs and Gavin Lerena has been secured for the Met ride.

The straight shooting Janse van Vuuren commented,

fashion industry during this period. Tailored skirt and trouser suits, short skirts and dresses, baby doll dresses, animal prints, hot pants, slim pants and high heels. High shine fabrics such as satin, metallic, sequins, vinyl and silk were prominent.

2000’s Modern Fashion

An era epitomised by style icons such as J. Lo saw fashion trends such as the boyfriend blazer, statement necklaces paired with classic sheath dresses, skyscraper platform shoes, miniskirts, mix and match prints and cocktail rings.

“Unfortunately we don’t have a cracking draw. The horse runs from off the pace and he does have a turn of foot, but he’ll need a bit of luck. I was very happy with his gallop, but it’s a strong field and he’s got a tough task.”

Dean’s Dream

Dean Kannemeyer has two runners.

Cape Speed is a 4yo Ideal World gelding and has drawn widest of all at 15. He has the services of Keagan De Melo in the saddle and will carry 57.5kgs. Mambo Mime is a 4yo colt by Mambo In Seattle.

He has drawn 13, has Grant Behr in the irons and will be carrying 57.5kgs.

Dean got something of a raw deal with double digit draws for both his runners, but remained upbeat.

“Cape Speed is drawn on the extreme outside, but we’ll take our chances. He blew 800m with blinkers on Thursday morning and he went very well, so I wouldn’t be surprised if he finished on top of them. You can ignore his last run. He jarred a knee a little, but we’ve sorted that out. He’s fit, he’s well and we’re going to take our chances here. Mambo Mime has got good 3yo form. When

we brought him back as a 4yo, we gave him a prep over 1200m, which was obviously a little sharp for him and he finished right on top of Whisky Baron in December.

His last run (in the Peninsula Handicap on Queen’s Plate day) was a bit disappointing, but he came back a bit shaken up as well. He’s put that behind him and worked nicely on Thursday, and if he puts his best foot forward, he could well be in the shake up.”

Jolly Good Fellows

Glen Kotzen and Richard Fourie have formed a formidable partnership this term and have a plum draw of 4 for their good looking Trippi colt, Gold Standard.

He is the only 3yo in the race and will carry a rock bottom 52kgs.

A smiling Glen Kotzen commented, “Obviously we’re delighted. We were hoping to draw somewhere between 1 -7 (7 is our lucky number), so we’re happy. You don’t know how much pressure there is until you’re the one up there doing the draw, but we’re happy. He’s exceptionally well and put up a great gallop at home just a few days ago, which is why we just paraded him on Thursday.”

Sean Tarry

Cape Crusade There was a lot of talk when Legal Eagle was promoted to a 120 rating ahead of the 2015 Vodacom Durban July, but Sean Tarry’s charge has done nothing but underline his class ever since.

With a second Queen’s Plate title firmly in the trophy cabinet and the 2017 Sun Met at his mercy, we caught up with champion trainer, Sean Tarry.

“Legal Eagle was in good health and we were always confident of his honesty and his ability for the Queen’s Plate, but we were obviously worrying about the conditions and factors out of our hands.

The wind was a huge worry.

The day before Carry On Alice was exposed for most of the race and found wanting in that last 100m and the way the draws had panned out, I was hoping we weren’t going to end up in front.”

“I watched the race from the RA facility on the first floor.

At no stage was there any concern about his position or how he was travelling and at every check he was in the right place, so there was no concern. Even though the head wind can stop you, it was fast going in terms of the ground and looking at where the dangers were at certain stages in the race, there wasn’t a lot to worry about.

Once he hit the front it was very hard to imagine them coming to get him.”

Matching set Consecutive Queen’s Plate victories with the same horse is an incredible achievement.

“You say that, but the first one was very special. Last year I’d never won the Queen’s Plate; secondly, there had been big talk about some of the other runners and we were the under dogs and lastly, we weren’t quite sure how he would run.

The Queen’s Plate was part of his Met prep programme.

I knew he’d run well, which is why Anton was on the horse and I felt he had a chance, but he was not one of the fancied horses, even though he was the highest rated and went out as no 1. So to me, last year’s win was big.”

“This year there was more expectation, so it was a completely different race for me. It was a matter of making sure all the i’s were dotted and the t’s crossed and just trying to make sure everything was right on the day. In my heart of hearts, even though Marinaresco had got that close to us in the Green Point Stakes, it was hard for me to imagine that Marinaresco would improve at a quicker

rate than my horse, but you always respect the opposition.

It’s brilliant to have won it twice, and probably the best part is that it is a double.”

Deserving owners “Mayfair have formed a great team who are very loyal to each other and it’s great that Markus can be rewarded for the money he’s put in.

Obviously it has nothing to do with finances – you can never catch up with the expenditure - but to be rewarded with the Gr1’s he’s had in Cape Town of late – the Guineas and then this – he deserves it.

We would have preferred it if we weren’t the victims in the Fillies Guineas, though!” he quips.

Top Of His Game As a 5yo, Legal Eagle seems at the height of his powers.

Sean comments, “Yes, he is stronger this season, bearing in mind we were fortunate enough not to have to race him after his last Gr1 win and he was afforded quite a bit of time between runs. I think that helped him strengthen and tighten up and as I said, at no time did we ever have to get hard on him in work and that allowed him to get fitter without us having to push him. From that rest, I was allowed to just keep building him and I believe we are still in that routine.”

Legal Eagle has campaigned all over the country and has 9 wins and 5 places from 15 starts, which makes it all look pretty straightforward. Is he an easy horse to manage?

“He’s got this air about him and this x-factor, but he’s actually a horse that may actually fall apart if you had to get too hard on him.

Behind the scenes there have been issues, but we’ve never been pressurised and have always been able to take the best decision for the horse.

I wouldn’t say he’s difficult, but he is a delicate horse and does need looking after.”

“In terms of racing, the time he ran in the July was horrific in terms of the interference he found at certain stages of the race. He was going so well at the 500m mark,

it looked like he would win it, but the complexion of the race changed so quickly.

Being the big, free-striding horse that he is – when I talk to Anton, we always talk about him going through the gears - you’ve got to let him build up and build up – in that race he was knocked from side to side and just couldn’t recover his stride in time. He still ran a courageous race and finished only 2.5 lengths off them. I wouldn’t call his career trouble-free and that race in particular stands out in my mind.”

Picking horses Tarry is renowned for his eye for a good horse at a good price, with Legal Eagle looking particularly good value as a R425k purchase from the 2013 National Yearling Sale.

How does he do it? “I believe first of all you have to look at all the horses on the sale, if possible. If you’re short on time, you have to focus on certain pages, but then you don’t know what might be stashed away, so the time you put in is essential. I buy a type and I tend not to deviate. I like a classic type that walks well.

Then we sit down and look at the pedigree afterwards.

Sometimes I’ll consult with my brother and he will advise on certain families, but if I like a horse strongly, I’m not going to take advice from anyone.

If I like it, I buy it. Often the extra advice does help when it comes to pedigree and things like that, because you can’t cut yourself in too many pieces. You have to focus on certain aspects and take advice on other areas.”

What made Legal Eagle stand out? “First of all, he was my type and he had an awesome walk. He may have been a little horse, but he looked like he would fill out.

You always hear everyone talking at sales, saying this is the best walker on the sale.

I heard many numbers of all the good walkers, but no-one mentioned him.”

“Obviously I did consider spec buying him because I didn’t have anybody in mind and hadn’t had any instruction for him. It was fairly early in

Greys Inn’s career, so maybe he was a little under the radar based on the stallion still having to do his bit, but in the arena I was going to buy him.

He got to R400k fairly quickly, but once the price went over that, I said to myself ‘I might have to bail out here’.

I hadn’t had any interaction with Markus Jooste or anyone from Mayfair as far as this horse was concerned, but Markus happened to be standing next to me and must have been watching.

He asked ‘Do you like this horse?’ I said ‘yes, I like him a lot’ and he gave me the go ahead. It was something of an unorthodox purchase by Mayfair’s standards – they are usually a lot more structured and well-researched - but Markus obviously trusted my judgement.”

Gelding “We did run him a run as a colt (on 28 October 2014) and although the distance was a little sharp for him, he finished the race off quite nicely. Piere Strydom rode him on debut and he thought he may need gelding. I wasn’t convinced at the time, but I felt he was a decent horse and didn’t want to have to interrupt his programme later on. It was a team decision and he seemed to improve after gelding, so I certainly can’t knock the move.”

Team effort

“I think the word team says it all. My front line include Monique Mansour who is managing the Cape Town string at the moment, Deshone Steyn in Durban and in Joburg I’ve got Andries Ndzongo, Shylock Mtwesi and Thabiso Nako. Thabiso, Andries and Shylock have a massive job. We divide the horses into teams, each guy heads up their team and they do it with distinction.

Deshone is in Durban and we have 40 stables there.

Sometimes it’s at 75% and sometimes it’s 100% full, so his numbers fluctuate, but it’s a consistent operation.

Johannesburg is where all the hard graft takes place – all the planning, sending horses from Joburg to Cape Town or Joburg to Durban. You can’t do too much in the way of pre-planning, but broadly speaking you have a list of horses that are doing well and as they progress, you move them around to the areas where they are needed.”

Met plans Legal Eagle has pulled up well from his Queen’s Plate outing and plans are on track for the Gr1 Sun Met.

Legal Eagle will jump from gate 9 and stablemate French Navy has drawn pole position. Sean says, “Obviously I’m very pleased with French Navy’s draw. For Legal Eagle things could have been worse, so it’s not panic stations, but we’re not over the moon either.”

Will there be any special preparation? “Legal Eagle is a natural, so I err on the side of caution when I’m at a crossroads with him and his work. Knowing his ability, I rather go in to a race doing a little less and focus on keeping him more sound and well than trying to get him 100% fit. I don’t try and get him fit, I just try and keep him at a certain level and keep him ticking over. I maybe do a bit less with him than with my other horses. Where you don’t know if you’ve got the best horse, then you rather try and have the fittest horse.

With him, I leave a little to play with.”

“I don’t want to get ahead of myself, but obviously I’ve got a plan in place for the Met and we just go from day to day. It’s about everything going right every single day and getting everything right and concentrating every single day. But to have the favourite for the Met is fantastic and he’s a worthy favourite.”

Honour Roll

T

The Met has walked a long road since first run in 1883 and won by Sir Hercules. 134 years later, Sun International are in the fray and the stake has been boosted to R5 million!

he race known as the Met Mile had a chequered existence for many years in the early 1900’s, but by the 1960’s was firmly established as one of the ‘big three’ races in the country, along with the Vodacom Durban July and the original Summer Handicap in Gauteng.

While the Met retained its status as one of the big three, it had begun to lose its sparkle with the handicap conditions and large fields resulting inevitably in a few good horses competing against numbers of opponents

not blessed with the same degree of ability. Visiting trainers began to baulk including the legendary Sydney Laird and it was time for an in-depth look at the race and its future.

In 1973 it was changed to a conditions race - weight-for-age plus penalties - and it drew a deep new breath on which to build for the future. This coupled with a rejuvenating injection of enthusiastic promotion to restore it to its former glory came in 1978 when Justerini and Brooks, producers of J&B Rare Scotch Whiskey, stepped in as sponsor and the J&B Met was born.

And as if to celebrate the dawning of a new era, into the line-up for the race as a four-year-old that year stepped one of the greatest horses ever to race in South Africa, Politician, a magnificent chestnut with an outstanding record.

He had won two of his three starts as a juvenile and six of his 10 starts as a three-year-old including the Dingaans, the Cape Guineas, the Cape Derby and the South African Guineas.

After running fifth in the Rothmans July, now the Vodacom Durban July, as a three-year-old, he was second in the Champion Stakes at Greyville then won the Hawaii Stakes at Turffontein and the Cape Trial Handicap at Milnerton.

He was the talking point of South African racing and a horse the public wanted to see.

The crowds streamed into the course drawn by the aura of this allconquering beast and he never let them down and, with “Big Race” Bertie Hayden in the irons, he cruised home 3,25 lengths clear of dead-heaters Arion and Fast Piece.

With a stake of R50 000 that year and a sensational finish, the large crowd was thrilled and the foundation

was set for the development of the J&B Met into the massive racing and entertainment spectacular that it is today.

And if the thrill of the first J&B Met was not enough, Syd Laird returned the following year with Politician and jockey Bertie Hayden and South Africa watched in awe as possibly the greatest performance by a thoroughbred in South African history was played out before an even greater crowd than the year before. Carrying top weight again - this time under 58,5kg - Politician became boxed as they swept into the home straight.

There was nowhere for him to go and with 200 metres of the race left the chances of him getting a run let alone winning looked impossible.

But the strapping chestnut was not to be denied and virtually finding his own way through the horses ahead of him he produced an explosive burst of breathtaking acceleration to catch the champion filly Festive Season just short of the post and beat her by half a length.

The roll of honour includes the names of many of the top horses to race in the country including Foveros, Wolf Power, Model Man, Empress Club, London News, Horse Chestnut and Pocket Power.

Gr1 SUN MET

I

Lead-up races to this year’s big Gr1 event have been fascinating, in respect of the pace at which they were run and the influence of pace on their outcomes. The way the official handicapper worked out MR ratings for these races has been equally fascinating.

It all started with the Gr2 Green Point Stakes early in December.

Horse of the Year Legal Eagle made his return to the main stage after an impressive warm-up sprint, two lengths off Trip To Heaven at level weights. Champion 3yo Marinaresco had been in his seasonal warm-up sprint as well, so the encounter between the champions was much anticipated, even if they weren’t expected to be quite at their peak. The small field of eight for the 1600m event included the previous year’s winner Captain America and stable companion Sail South.

Captain America had met Legal Eagle a few times during the year, in Gauteng and the Cape, coming off worst four times.

Legal Eagle started even money favourite for the Greenpoint Stakes, with Marinaresco at 7/2. Legal Eagle’s pre-race MR was 120, Marinaresco’s 110 – meaning a ten point difference, equivalent to five lengths over 1600m. Both carried the same weight of 60kg. Given the MR ratings it should be no race.

The scenario unfolded dramatically, Sail South setting a pretty much suicidal pace, with stablemate Captain America in second.

Legal Eagle took it easier, but still raced quite close up, with Marinaresco sensibly further back. Sail South predictably ran out of wind, as did Captain America who staggered across the width of the track in the final stages.

Legal Eagle looked to get home comfortably, but his excertions probably told as well and in the end a motoring Marinaresco got to within a long neck.

This was by far the fastest of the three 1600m races on the day, more than 3 seconds quicker than the second fastest, the Gr1 Fillies Guineas. The reading of the race is that the pace was too fast, that Marinaresco was in the right place, and possibly flattered by his proximity to the winner at the finish.

The official handicapper increased Legal Eagle’s rating from 120 to 123, which meant that in the real world Marinaresco’s rating should have gone from 110 to 122.

But official handicappers have their hands tied by official Rules, and Marinaresco ended up with a rating of MR 115, which is 8 points or 4 lengths less than Legal Eagle’s MR 123. Go figure.

The Gr1 Queen’s Plate run over the course and distance early in January was to be the showdown between Legal Eagle and Marinaresco. The 1600m race is run at weightfor-age, so both carried 60kg, as did Captain America and Sail South. Legal Eagle started odds-on favourite at 13/20, with Marinaresco 2/1, Captain America 28/1, and Sail South 66/1. The official MR’s for them were 123 Legal Eagle, 115 Marinaresco, 114 Captain America (who had been dropped from 117 after the Green Point Stakes), and 112 Sail South.

The pace was a sensible one, set by Captain America’s stable companion Midnight Zone (in the same ownership as Legal Eagle), with Captain America second and Legal Eagle close-up in third. Marinaresco and Sail South were at the back of the field. Legal Eagle got to the front 200m out, going on to win unchallenged by two lengths from Captain America. Sail South, coming from from last, just shaded Marinaresco for third.

This was a true run mile, where the Green Point result was put in perspective, at the same time giving the official handicapper a real headache as to how to rate the race.

These are Green Point pre- and post-race MR, and post-QPlate MR: preGP MR 120 117 112 110

Now for the Gr1 Sun Met

Let’s concentrate for a moment on the Sporting Post ratings (AR), which differ from the official ones.

Going back to the Green Point Stakes, the Sporting Post published pre-race ratings for that race looked like this (AR is the actual ability rating, RR the race rating adjusted for weight):

mass 58.0 59.0 60.0 60.0

AR 111 112 113 106

In the Sun Met Legal Eagle has 60kg, and Captain America 58kg – four points difference in terms of ratings, which compares to their AR 112 vs AR 116.

So given the evidence from last year’s Met and this year’s Queen’s Plate, Captain America has as good a chance as Legal Eagle.

Luck in the running could make the difference.

At present Legal Eagle is 15/10 favourite for the Met, with Captain America at 20/1.

Marinaresco carries 59.5kg, giving Captain America 1.5kg.

The latter’s rating, both with Sporting Post and the official handicapper, is higher – even before taking into account the weight difference. Marinaresco is presently quoted at around 5/2.

What about the rest?

Current betting shows Whisky Baron and Bela-Bela as the only other two other runners quoted in single figures.

Whisky Baron is an improving 4yo, who scored an impressive victory in the Peninsula handicap over 1800m on Queen’s Plate day. That was a true run race, much like the Queen’s Plate.

Whisky Baron’s AR 101 increased to 104, on which he might still be able to improve somewhat.

His official MR went from 103 to 110. Whisky Baron carries 57.5kg in the Met. Bela-Bela won her last two starts spectacularly. Those races were false run, where she finished fast from off a slow early pace both times.

Such efforts do not always translate well to races that are true run.

Bela-Bela was rated MR 107 following her KZN winter season, which increased to 109 after her last win in the Gr1 Paddock Stakes on Queen’s Plate day. A bit different from Sporting Post which had her on AR 104 in KZN, and gave a lower 102 for the narrow Paddock Stakes win. The grey filly carries 57kg.

These ratings, both for AR and official MR, put Marinaresco, Whisky Baron and Bela-Bela in the same ballpark at the weights for the Met. They will have to improve to challenge the favourite.

One more.

Legal Eagle’s stable companion French Navy had a break from July to December, had one warm-up sprint, then was not entirely disgraced in

the Queen’s Plate. Last year he ran 2 lengths off Legal Eagle in the Gr1 Champions Challenge at Turffontein over 2000m at level weights, and is 2kg better off this time on 58kg. His MR 115 was dropped to 113 following the Queen’s Plate.

French Navy has a Sporting Post AR 110 (ran 103 in the Queen’s Plate), and is quoted at around 40/1 in the betting.

Brazuca was a short-head behind French Navy in the Champions Challenge when Legal Eagle won last April, then was off the track until November, making a winning return. His next start was in the race won by Whisky Baron, where he set a good pace before throwing in the towel, running well below his best rating. A return to his career-best rating of AR 106 and MR111 puts him in the firing line.

In short, this Met doesn’t appear to be as clear-cut as the betting would suggest.

Captain America and French Navy make for interesting each-way betting opportunities together with Brazuca - with added appeal for swingers, trifecta and quartet bets.

Ratings Rule, OK?

RR if adjusted to QP weights 60kg for all)

Gr2 Green Point Stakes (1600m) Horse Sail South Captain America LEGAL EAGLE Marinaresco

They raced off level weights, their ratings AR 112 and AR 116.

RR 123 122 121 114

RR 119 120 121 114

Let’s go crazy for a moment, and imagine that the Green Point never happened (given the assumption about the pace there, that may be a reasonable view).

For the Queen’s Plate it may then make sense to have Captain America as line-horse with AR 112, equalling his career-best rating.

Sail South then runs one below his career-best mark, on AR 110.

Legal Eagle then goes up by 3 points to a new career-best AR 116.

Marinaresco then goes up by 3 points to a new career-best AR 109.

It appears that Marinaresco’s reputation in terms of ratings is based on one race, the Green Point Stakes - not only with Sporting Post, but also the official MR. Although how the official handicapper comes to the current MR ratings is somewhat of a mystery.

So who’ll win the Met?

Captain America ran third last year, from off the pace, in what is on record as a true run race.

He was beaten 4½ lengths by Smart Call, and 1 length by Legal Eagle, all three running to their best ratings.

Captain America gave Legal Eagle ½ kg, which reflects in their ratings: AR 112 vs AR 113.

In this year’s Queen’s Plate, which looks true run, Legal Eagle won by 2¼ length from Captain America.

The age of the oldest horse to win the Met this century.

That was the Silvano gelding Martial Eagle who shocked in 2013 for trainer Yogas Govender and owner Sabine Plattner. He never won another race.

Past Met winning trainers have runners in Saturday’s race.

Sean Tarry won it in 2005 with Alastor, while Brett Crawford scored with Angus in 2003 and Futura in 2015. Both have two runners on Saturday.

Just to make you feel old.

That’s how many years it’s been since Garth Puller won his first Met in 1976 aboard Gatecrasher for trainer Herman Brown. The ‘Head Waiter’ won it again in 1994 aboard Pas De Quoi and in 2005 on Alastor.

Those 29 years must be something of a record between first and last wins in any Gr1!

That’s how many years ago it was that big race favourite Legal Eagle’s rider Anton Marcus won his first Met. Marcus won the race again in 2014 on Hill Fifty Four and goes for his hat-trick on Saturday.

Jockey Robby Albarado joined an elite group at Fair Grounds Race Course & Slots on Sunday where he rode his 5000th victory. The 43yo became the 33rd rider to reach the milestone and has won 201 graded stakes, including 35 Gr1’s. His top victories have been the Preakness Stakes and Breeders’ Cup Classic aboard Curlin in 2007, as well as the Dubai World Cup aboard the two-time Horse of the Year the following season.

QUICKSILVER Super sire Var, who enjoyed another good sale at the weekend, had a smart winner when his son, Quicksilver, won in Singapore on Friday. Ridden by former SA based rider Nuresh Juglall, the Ricardo Le Grange trained gelding bolted clear to romp home by 1.8 lengths over 1400m. It was a third Singapore win for Quicksilver, who was bred

by Boland Stud. Out of the Caesour mare Calpurnia, Quicksilver was a R280 000 buy from the 2013 Emperors Palace National Yearling Sale.

The number of Pick 6s punters can lose in one go if they get the Met winner wrong. Racing operators have included the Met in the racecards for meetings at Kenilworth (the real venue), Greyville and Turffontein (the ghost venues).

Knuckleheads

The British Professional Jockeys Association is considering use of legal action in response to the growing trend of social media abuse of its members by internet trolls. The use of social media has been in the news recently with the criticism of jumps jockey Ciaran Gethings following him being unseated in a race while another jumps jockey, Tom Scudamore, has made public this week that a critic wished him dead.”It is an unfortunate reality of modern day life that the anonymity afforded by social media empowers a small number of knuckleheads to behave in a way they otherwise wouldn’t, including saying things and making serious allegations that they’d never dream of saying to someone’s face,” said Paul Struthers of the PJA.

The highest weight carried by a Met winner this century.

That was Dynasty’s son Futura who won for Brett Crawford in 2015.

Shor� Memorie�

Dual Gr1 winner French Navy has been backed from 40-1 to 25-1 for Saturday’s Sun Met following Sean Tarry’s comments about the horse at last Thursday’s draw ceremony.

The champion trainer told Michael Clower: “People in this game have short memories but just look at his last Grade 1 race in Jo’burg. He has come along nicely and I was very happy with his run in the Queen’s Plate.

I think he is a value bet for a place.”

The New Zealand Racing Board has announced an additional $4.77 million in funding to improve prize money levels, address ageing infrastructure, and to encourage the entry of young people to racing. More than $2.8 million will be made available to boost stakes for a greater return to owners, trainers, jockeys and drivers and in turn attracting higher quality racing and improving the overall race experience for industry people and punters alike.

The Youth Development Fund will aim to help build the next generation of racing participants by applying more than $645,000 to encouraging the development of career paths into and through the industry.

A Walk Down Met Memory Lane

W

The Queen’s Plate may be able to boast the title of South Africa’s oldest race, but the Met is one of the most distinguished and the most popular on the calendar. hile most cite the 1883 running, won by Sir Hercules, as the first running of the Met, some resources hint at earlier renditions, possibly tracing as far back as 1876.

Either way, I went and did a few sums and realised that our oldest Met winning jockeys include Colin Palm (who turns 78 in March) and James Maree, who turns 70 years old this April.

Colin won two Mets – first in 1959 on Bulbul and again in 1964 on The Giant, both for H.E. ‘Cookie’ Amos. James Maree won the Met in 1967 on Ding Dong, beating into second place none other than Colin Palm on the mighty Renounce.

I thought it might be fun to canvass them for their recollections of the Met of yesteryear.

Colin Palm Colin Palm was born on 31 March 1939 and was the 12th of 14 children - 6 sons and 8 daughters. His father, Bennie Palm, was a jockey and three of Colin’s older brothers followed in their father’s footsteps and became jockeys, Oscar, Earnest and Robert (Bobby) – who was associated with the mighty Riza.

When it was his turn, Colin followed suit.

Colin was originally apprenticed to his elder brother Ernest in Durban.

“He suggested I go to Cape Town to ride for Cookie Amos who was looking for an apprentice at the time, so I went straight there

and joined Cookie,” explains Colin, who says he would have been around 17 years old at the time.

Cookie Amos was at the height of his considerable powers at the time and the two formed a very successful partnership. Asked to describe Cookie, Colin says without hesitation, “He was an outstanding person and a first class gentleman.”

The 1959 Metropolitan meeting was still held over three days Cookie started riding in Joburg, but made his way to Cape Town where he rode and worked for the outstanding Syd Garrett for many years. “Now HE was a genius,” reminisces Colin. When Cookie got too heavy to ride, he took out his trainer’s licence.

“Cookie was a very good trainer,” continues Colin. “At the time I was lucky to get that position – he had a lot of good horses and it’s always easier to win on a good one than a bad one. He was a first class gentleman. After a race, or usually the next day, he’d sit down and we’d discuss what had happened. Having been a jockey himself, he gave a lot of insight.

He was a top class horseman. He was always analysing the well being of the horse. He had a string of about 50 horses and was incredibly thorough. He could tell when a horse looked well, was working well and eating well.

“He had a very good eye and noticed immediately if a horse was not behaving how it should. We would take temperatures regularly. I remember one day a horse spiked a slight temperature and he sent him back to his box, saying ‘What’s the good of running a horse with a temperature?’ He was a very good man and a very good trainer.”

Bulbul In 1959, the year Colin first won the race, the Metropolitan meeting (as it was known then) was still held over three days, horses jumped from tapes and the purse for that year was £10,000.

The SA Racehorse boasts, “The Metropolitan meeting opened the Cape racing season in fine style with tote and turnstiles breaking a record on Metropolitan day and a total of £216,585 through the tote for three days, considerably higher than last year.”

Cookie’s boss, Syd Garrett had trained the mighty Black Cap and Cookie trained his son, Bulbul who was out of the Epigram mare, Wagtail and owned by the Chairman of the local executive of the Jockey Club, Mr Phillip Hill.

Colin remembers Bulbul as “a tall black horse, although one would call him dark brown. He used to like to run freely, and didn’t like to be Mr and Mrs P.P Hill with their 1959 Metro politan Handicap settled. He always winner Bulbul, who was trained by Mr H.E Amos. did his best when handily placed into the straight. Going into the James Maree Different era Met we were very confident.

They came from off the pace, hit the front late and won easily.

“It was fantastic to win the Met. Not everyone gets the opportunity.”

Colin says, “Just a few strides before the line, she changed strides, shortened and broke down, but she tried so hard. She was a phenomenal filly and gave you everything.

“She had a beautiful head and was really well made and she had a temperament to go with it. When she was racing, she was cool, calm and so easy to ride. I don’t think King’s Pact would have beaten her, but it would have been a very good race! I rode a lot of good horses, but there was never another like her.”

SPORTING POST • FriDAY 27th - SUNDAY 29th JANUArY 2017

Playing Fair For Both Sides One of the ingredients that helps spice up the CTS Cape Premier Yearling Sale which was held in Cape Town last weekend is the line-up of auctioneers, who have helped grow and shape the event.

A

ndrew Miller is a proudly South African talent, with many strings to his bow.

His father was a livestock farmer and Andrew more or less grew up attending auctions.

His father, Mike, was a keen polo player and was the most capped Springbok player before hanging up his mallet. Andrew also played for many years and is an old hand at buying horses off the track to produce for polo, so has a longstanding affinity with Thoroughbreds. He has also done commentating work for radio and TV. His son David plays cricket for the Proteas.

Andrew has been an auctioneer since 1982, first working for a local livestock auction company before gaining experience in the USA, working and travelling with 5 of the leading auctioneers of the day.

Andrew now owns his own auction company in Durban called In 2 Assets, specialising in commercial and industrial property, but he is still in high demand on the livestock circuit. He freelances to the stud stock industry and as an auctioneer has conducted thousands of sales over the past 35 years.

His association with racing started in 1986 when he started working with the TBA. So when the first Cape Premier Yearling Sale came around “I was already in the saddle, so to speak,” he smiles.

Asked how the sale has grown since he joined he opines, “The Cape has some very good studs and a strong band of stallions, and I think it helps that the yearlings don’t have to be traveled too far. There’s been a concerted effort to get good horses and I’ve seen the catalogue improve and grow year on year and the prices have risen to reflect that. It is a sale that commands huge respect.

How does he prepare for a sale? “You’ve got

to prepare and prepare properly. Each auction is different and it’s basically a reality show, so there will be mistakes and things will go wrong and you have split seconds to rectify things. It can be difficult when there is no energy in the room, so it’s important to know the characters and understand who’s in your audience. Of course it’s lovely when there’s a buzz and I think this sale has created that. There’s pizzazz and expectation. The venue, the stock, the overseas interest – it’s a cocktail of things that all adds up to making it into what it is.”

Is there a lot of pressure? “Sure, but you learn to grow with it. There’s 1000+ people all waving, ordering food and drinks and you have to keep focussed. We each do 15 lots at a time, so that it’s short, sharp and you can stay on top of your game. It’s an industry shop window and it’s an important one, so a lot rests on our shoulders to try and make it as good as possible. because what we do represents the company as well.”

What are the challenges? “You are representing both parties up there, so you’re up there to try and get the best possible result. You need to be fair to your bidders and of course you want your vendor back – it’s important to him as it’s cost him a lot of time and effort.

There are significant values at stake and you can’t afford to make mistakes. If you do, you need to move past them quickly and smartly.

Preparation is key to try and eliminate as many potential problems as possible.”

Highlights? “For me as a South African, having the opportunity to work with global superstars like John O’Kelly and Grant Burns.

When you work in the trenches with them, you become friends and working alongside them is an absolute highlight.”

John O’Kelly

John has also been with the sale since day one and we asked for his insights. “It happened by accident, really,” he says in his Irish lilt. “I was at a sale in Keeneland and picked up a leaflet for

the first Cape Premier Yearling Sale. I bumped into Robin Bruss and said ‘Oh, I see there’s a new sale happening’ and he asked “Why don’t you come along?” I thought, “What a pleasure, as you say out here!” he chuckles. He’s been coming ever since.

John also does extensive preparation and thoroughly examines all the lots he’ll be selling beforehand. “I need to see every horse before I sell it. There are different types and different families and different things that one looks for in each. Of course everyone has their own way of doing things, but I think if you know what you’re selling, it’s more fun.”

John earns his livelihood in the bloodstock business and works as a yearling sale inspector, mainly for Tattersalls. Has he seen a change in the CPYS draft over the years?

“Oh absolutely. The physical specimens have improved out of sight since the first year and there are very few horses that don’t merit being here. It’s a very early sale, which makes it great timing for the international market, but it’s a major job to select yearlings in the spring when they are still growing. Getting together a draft like this is an incredible achievement by your selectors, John Kramer and Tom Thornbury and makes our job easier, so well done to them and to the CTS directors. “Every year come October, one is already looking forward to January in the Cape. Where else would you rather be in January?”

Neisius Hits The Big 60

H

Retired nine-times Cape champion jockey Karl Neisius spent the best part of 40 illustrious years in the saddle trying to win the Met. He had a few close calls but never filled the golden gap on his distinguished CV.

e turns 60 on Friday. There were a good few times that Neisius rode in the Met on his birthday but the racing gods were never that generous with a double celebration and he will attend the Cape’s big race on Saturday for the second time since his retirement as a spectator.

He rode the final of over 3200 career winners in September 2015 before hanging up his boots on medical advice after inflammation and osteoporosis in his kept him out of the saddle.

Neisius, 58, told Michael Clower at the time: “The doctors told me that if I carry on my back is going to deteriorate more and they have medically boarded me, saying I am unable to do my job.”

He has not taken the plunge into the training ranks but is a regular visitor to the Milnerton Training Centre.

Born in Wales, he moved to South Africa with his riding school-instructor mother and step-father when he was seven.

He was apprenticed to Ralph Rixon and rode his first winner on Glad Rag Doll at Kenilworth in March 1973.

He rode his 3 000th winner on the Dean Kannemeyertrained Cape Royal 39 years later at the same venue.

Some 55 of his 3 200-plus winners have been in Grade 1s, most notably the 1991 Durban July on Flaming Rock.

Looking back over his career he told Michael Clower: “All my Gr1 wins were special and the Queen’s Plates were huge. Dynasty was probably the most amazing horse I rode and probably the one with the most potential.”

Dynasty is the sire of Sun Met runners It’s My Turn and Bela-Bela.

New NHA Chairman

THE National Horseracing Authority of South Africa have announced seasoned businessman, Mr Ken Truter, as its new Chairman.

Mr Truter, a UCT graduate, has been a successful horse owner and entrepreneur for many years and held numerous directorships within the business and horseracing landscapes.

Ken is currently retired

and is mainly involved in property investment. He is a passionate racehorse lover.

This is evident through his keen involvement in various industry initiatives.

Ken has been a racehorse Owner and Breeder since 1979 and in 2000 was named as the Western Cape Owner of the year.

He is currently Chairman of the Western Cape Equine Trust.

Besides enjoying ownership in a number of great horses, his highlight, as a breeder, was as a shareholder of the High Season Stud that bred Champion Horse Jay Peg. The NHA and its Board thanked the previous Chairman, Mr Andrew O’Connor, for successfully leading the organisation through some turbulent times over the last two years.

Chrome Eclipses Them The Sunshine State became the Golden State on Saturday night at Gulfstream Park at the 46th annual Eclipse Awards dinner, as California Chrome made off with the golden statuette as Horse of the Year for the second time and led a parade of California-based connections who won divisional titles.

C

alifornia Chrome outpolled Arrogate for Horse of the Year after both won divisional titles earlier in the evening. California Chrome was the unanimous choice among the 248 voters as champion older dirt male, while Arrogate captured the title as champion 3-year-old male.

Winners for the 2016 Eclipse Awards were selected by voters from Daily Racing Form, the National Turf Writers and Broadcasters, and the National Thoroughbred Racing Association.

World’s Richest Race Two-time Horse of the Year California Chrome was installed favourite despite drawing the outside post in the 12-horse field for Saturday’s inaugural $12 million Pegasus World Cup Invitational.

Y

ounger rival Arrogate, who dealt Chrome his only defeat in 2016 by a half-length in the Breeders’ Cup, also received a tough assignment on the inside post.

Arrogate is the next pick in what is expected to be a two-horse duel over 1800m on the dirt at Gulfstream Park.

Keen Ice, who finished third in the Breeders’ Cup in November, will start from the ninth spot. He is rated third at 12-1.

The rematch between Chrome and the Bob-Baffert-trained Arrogate has amped up interest in an event that already had plenty of lustre due to the uniqueness of the 12 entrants putting up $1 million apiece to buy a spot in the field.

The winner will collect $7 million.

“We’ll both have to be a jockey’s race, I think,” said Art Sherman, 79-year-old trainer of California Chrome. “They’re going to be heads up coming away from there and hopefully get a clean break and we’ll see what happens.

“The only good thing I thought about this is he won’t have to be in the starting gate for long. You can’t make any excuses.

Chrome is Chrome. He’s got tactical speed. I was hoping that we might get closer inside. But he’s going to overcome all of this.”

Chrome will need to use his speed for a quick break in the short dash to the first turn to avoid getting parked. Odds are stacked against horses starting from the outside in a large field.

Notably, Big Brown won the 2008 Florida Derby from the 12 post at Gulfstream, then went on to win the Kentucky Derby from the No. 20 post, only the second horse in 52 years to win it from outside the 16th starting spot.

Arrogate, who won the Eclipse Award as 2016’s outstanding 3-year-old, will have a shorter route to the turn but will have to guard against being cut off by others with early speed.

There was no news as we went to print as to the possible broadcast of the race on Tellytrack.

cape premier yearling sale Prices 21-22 January 2017 - Cape Town International Convention Centre

Local Sires Rule The Roost

Foreign buyers were to the fore at the two-day showpiece in Cape Town, with their focus firmly on the progeny of the leading South African sires. There was only modest interest in the ten Rock Of Gibraltar yearlings, while two of the four eagerly awaited progeny of champion Frankel found themselves selling among the also-rans at around R1 million – a barrier broken by 40 other yearlings.

The South African record price for a yearling, set at this sale last year, was equalled when Tom Magnier bid R6 million for a colt by champion sire Trippi. Consigned by Drakenstein Stud, he’s the first foal of Gr2 winning Dynasty mare Demanding Lady (rated AR 95) who has a US-pedigree background.

Kuda Holdings secured the second highest prices colt at R5.75m. This one is by Dynasty, and the first foal of Gr1 winning Jet Master-mare Viva Maria (rated AR 102), consigned by Lammerskraal Stud.

Three yearling colts shared the Top price at R6-million for Drakenstein’s bronze medal, each selling for R4.5m.

Trippi colt, the first foal out of Gr2 Demanding Lady Lammerskraal Stud consigned a Dynasty half brother to Gr1 Cape Guineas winner Solo Traveller, secured on behalf of Coolmore Australia. Bernard Marais was the final bidder on a Captain Al colt consigned by Drakenstein Stud. He’s the second foal of multiple Gr1 winning Jet Master mare Ebony Flyer (rated AR 108). The third of the trio is a first foal, by Captain Al out of Gr3 winner Orator’s Daughter (rated AR 98), consigned by Klawervlei Stud. David Redvers signed the ticket, acting on behalf of Qatari Sheikh Fahad al Thani, whose first venture this is into South Africa.

The top priced filly went for R4 million, the fourth-highest price overall. Consigned by Klawervlei Stud and bought by Justin Casse, she’s by Frankel, and the first foal of Irish-bred Fastnet Rock mare Little Fastnet (rated RPR 70 at 2). The dam is half sister to Gr2 winner Requinto (Dansili), both out of Irish champion 2yo filly Damson (by Sadler’s Wells stallion Entrepreneur). The filly is inbred 3x3 to Danehill, and 3x4 to Sadler’s Wells.

China Horse Club principal Teo Ah King was present to see his representative Mick Flanagan sign for the next highest priced lot at R3.75m, a colt by Captain Al. He’s the second foal of his dam Happy Archer, a multiple Gr1 winner (rated AR 106). This is the second year China Horse Club was active in South Africa.

The number of yearlings sold at the sale was on a par with last year (222, slightly down from 227). The overall median price remained the same as in 2016 at R375k, as did the colt’s median at R400k. The filly’s median price was slightly down, to R325k from R350k.

SPORTING POST • FriDAY 27th - SUNDAY 29th JANUArY 2017

Met-day Pedigree Pointers

L

With nine feature races on the card, Sun Met-day promises to be an interesting one for the progeny of several of South Africa’s top stallions and broodmares.

ammerskraal Stud’s broodmare Nacarat (Pas De Quoi) left a remarkable legacy, with five stakes winners to her credit. She could be to the fore on Saturday, when her sons Brutal Force and Red Ray (both by Western Winter) contest the Gr1 Cape Flying Championship. Both

have run second in this race previously, Red Ray behind Via Africa (Var) in 2014, and Brutal Force being oh-sonarrowly denied victory last year.

Laptop Lady (Al Mufti) is best known as the dam of Equus Champion Jay Peg (Camden Park). She now has 2yo son Barrack Street (Dynasty), who will line up in the R1million Kuda

Sprint, while year older daughter Epona (Silvano) takes her chances in the CTS Mile. Jay Peg himself will be represented in the Majorca Stakes by daughter Neala.

Last season’s Broodmare Of The Year Our Table Mountain (Fusaichi Pegasus) has Cloth Of Cloud (Captain Al) in the CTS Sprint. The filly was Equus Champion 2yo last season. Her classic winning

half-sister Silver Mountain (Silvano) should be a big runner in the Gr1 Majorca Stakes.

Our Table Mountain’s frustratingly talented but temperamental son Helderberg Blue (Jet Master) is one of 13 to contest the Gr2 Cape Stayers.

Pagan Princess (Fort Wood) joined an elite band of mares to produce more than one Gr1 winner when her son William Longsword (Captain Al) landed this season’s Cape Guineas. The colt must be a huge runner in the CTS Mile, while his Gr1 winning half-sister Real Princess (Trippi) goes beyond sprints for a change, in the Majorca Stakes.

Klawervlei’s champion sire Captain Al, who was all the rage at last weekend’s Cape sale, is on track for a memorable Met day.

The eight-times champion sire of 2yo’s will have some 26 runners on the card. He is well represented in the Listed Summer Juvenile Stakes (four runners), a race his progeny captured twice before (Only Emily and Sergeant Hardy). The Captain has six runners in the CTS Sprint, four in the Gr1 Cape Flying Championship and is represented in all of the Kuda Sprint, CTS Mile, Gr1 Majorca Stakes, Gr1 Cape Derby, Gr1 Met and Gr2 Cape Stayers.

Another champion sire, Silvano (Lomitas), has four runners in the Gr1 Majorca Stakes, headed by likely race-favourite Silver Mountain.

Silvano, whose full sister is the dam of leading Gr1 Cape Derby hope Horizon (Dynasty), has Ollivander in the same race. Silvano also is the sire of Met hope Marinaresco, and has Gothic and Zafira in the Gr2 Cape Stayers.

First crop sires

While proven stallions may dominate Saturday’s big day, first-crop sires are also represented.

Champion Sprinter What A Winter (Western Winter) is making a promising start to his stud career. The triple Equus Champion has a trio of runners, headed by impressive debut winner Dutch Philip in the Summer Juvenile Stakes.

He has a pair of runners in the Kuda Sprint, with Snow Boarding and Warrior’s Rest.

Four-time Gr1 winner and European champion racehorse Twice Over (Observatory) has his daughter Lacerta in the Kuda Sprint.

Gr1 broodmares

Several Gr1 winning matriarchs have runners. They include Sparkling Gem (winner of the Gr1 Cape Fillies Guineas), Zaitoon (SA Fillies Classic), Give Me Five (Allan Robertson Fillies Championship), Roxanne (Thekwini Stakes), Consensual (Golden Slipper), River Jetez (J&B Met), Soft Landing (Garden Province Stakes), Overarching (SA Fillies Sprint, Horse Chestnut Stakes), Final Claim (Garden Province Stakes), Macavelli Miss (Thorndon Mile), Republic Lass (Australian Oaks), Shadow Dancing (Cape Fillies Guineas), Imperious Sue (J&B Met), Battle Maiden (Garden Province Stakes), On Her Toes (Allan Robertson Fillies Championship) and Laisserfaire (Champion Sprinter).

Mac De Lago (out of Macavelli Miss) and The Conglomerate (out of Republic Lass) are the only runners in the 2017 Sun Met to have been produced by a Gr1 winner.

Jackson Sets CPYS Record The progeny of Highlands Farm Stud’s young sire Jackson proved popular at the 2017 Cape Premier Yearling Sale this past weekend.

J

ackson, whose first crop are now yearlings, had members of his initial crop fetch up to R2.2 million, with his top lot being a filly out of the well bred Western Winter Undine.

That filly was knocked down to Brett Crawford –the former trainer of Jackson –for R2 200 000.

This price was the highest paid for a first crop sire at the Premier Sale –which is certainly a great start for Jackson!

Jackson also had a colt out of the Pulpit mare Temple Goddess fetch R750 000, while a Jackson half-sister to former Equus Champion 2YO and Wilgerbosdrift’s young sire Soft Falling Rain fetch R500 000 to the bid of the Bass Racing Team.

to retire to stud, Jackson himself was the top lot sold at the 2010 Emperors Palace National 2YO Sale.

He went on to prove himself a top class performer, winning or placing in 13 of 17 outings with his victories including a 2.15 length thrashing of dual Horse Of The Year Variety Club in the Gr1 Investec Cape Derby.

Jackson went on to add the G1 Daily News 2000 and Gr1 Champions Cup to his tally of big race wins and retired to stud having earned over R2.3 million in stakes.

A half or full brother to 2 graded winners, Jackson is from the same family as dual US Champion Sire Smart Strike, whose champion son Curlin was responsible for five individual Gr1 winners in 2016. www.capebreeders.co.za

7 Winning Pacemakers

Maximising Potential

Kenilworth 18th January A maiden plate for the girls over 1000m got proceedings underway in the Western Cape on Wednesday and in what proved to be a very good time on the day, the favourite SILK TRIP did the business. Always deep in the red, Andre Nel’s charge led throughout. She was just three quarters of a length clear for most of the journey, before drawing clear in good style over the final 300m to score by four and a half.

Another to win from the front in good time on this card was the recent maiden winner RED GRANITE when completing a double in the faster of the two 1400m events, a MR68 Handicap. Two lengths clear turning for home, Joey Ramsden’s charge kept on strongly in the straight and although WHISPERING LIGHT did reduce the deficit to three quarters, she did have that one held.

The faster of the two maiden plates over 1600m was the boy’s affair won by WILDLIFE SAFARI. The third of seven to win from the front on this card, the son of Querari ran on strongly at the business end of the race and only having to be pushed out won very comfortably by a length and three quarters.

TITBITS The only horse not to win from the front on this card was FRIENDLY TIBBS. Positioned fifth of six turning for home, this one ran on best of all when the race developed into a sprint, and got up late to deny the favourite BIG ED.

Vaal 19th January The outside track was the chosen circuit at the Vaal on Thursday where three of the nine races were staged over 1000m. Quickest home in these was SECRET STAR when registering her second career victory from just six outings in the novice plate. On leaving the stalls it was WINTER AL who predictably set the pace and going through the 300m it looked like the 5yo mare would go on to make all. The daughter of Pathfork quickened well from there onwards though, and with the rest some nine lengths adrift, she got up late to score by a half.

They also ran three races over 1400m and stopping the clock in the fastest time amongst these was the 3yo MAXIMISER. Shouldering top weight of 61kg here, Paul Peter’s charge wasn’t the quickest into stride.

He was soon well positioned to strike despite that though, and went on to score with authority by two and a half after hitting the front 200m out.

The biggest winning margin on the card was the 2,80 lengths recorded by ANGEL OF LIGHT in the faster of the two 1200m races, a MR68 Handicap.

Backed through all rates at the track into 9/2 from 9/1, Erico Verdonese’s charge was a little sluggish into stride, and as a result she raced in the rear early on. Once given rein though she quickened best of all, and drew clear easily after putting her head in front 130m or so from home.

TITBITS The strong favourite GUNSHIP was eased late when comfortably accounting for her eight rivals in the maiden plate over 1000m.

Extending The Sequence Fairview 20th January Friday’s action took place on the turf where onwards, she won with total authority by two three of the afternoon’s nine races took place over and a half. The faster of the two 1600m events 1200m. Very marginally the fastest of these was was the MR68 Handicap won by the former the MR85 Handicap won by NATURAL TAN. Gauteng campaigner TRICIA DUPONT. Now Easy to back at 7/1 on the off, Alan Greeff ’s a winner of two from two since relocating to charge was always handy. She was ridden to lead the province, Gavin Smith’s charge raced fifth shortly after passing the 200m pole and went on for most of the journey. She was ridden to lead 150m from home and comfortably accounted to score comfortably by a length and a half.

The stable of Alan Greeff were also on the for the running on QUEEN JUSTINE by two. mark when SANCTUARY completed a hat-trick TITBITS in the MR82 Handicap over 2000m. Sent off a CHINA EXPRESS made up many lengths from strong favourite in what proved to be a slowly midfield when getting up late to open his acrun affair, the daughter of National Emblem was count in the maiden plate over 1400m. soon positioned close to the speed. She took up Baulked for a run 350m out, ANOTHER NIGHT the running as they approached the 400m marker was finishing best of all when third beaten 2,85 lengths in the MR63 affair over 1600m. and only having to be pushed out from there

Generous Circus Greyville 20th January They raced on the poly track on Friday evening where the fastest of the three 1600m races was the MR82 Handicap won by Sporting Post’s best bet NIGHT CIRCUS. Freely available at 7/2 on the off (R5,20 on the tote), Dean Kannemeyer’s charge was always handy. He ran on strongly in the straight and after getting the better of his stable companion TANJIRO, he won comfortably by a length and three quarters.

They also ran three races over 1400m and quickest home in these was the friendless veteran SOUNDS POSITIVE (8/1 out to 22/1). Winning for the seventh time in 31 starts here, the 7yo Miesque’s Approval mare was always well positioned to strike.

She did so going through the 200m and won well by two from the running on favourite RED MOON

AT NIGHT (reported as coughing and something amiss).

Race five on the card was a MR84 Handicap over 2000m and here it was nice to see the once highly regarded PERSIAN RUG find the winner’s enclosure.

Third in the prestigious Gr1 Thekwini Stakes back in August 2015, Mike De Kock’s charge was racing off a mark some 14 points below that of her former best here. In a race where there was no real pace throughout, Persian Rug ran on best of all when the race developed into a sprint, and she comfortably accounted for KILLER WOMAN by two and a quarter.

TITBITS

Lightly raced HEIR LINE ran on well from midfield when getting off the mark in the maiden plate over 1600m.
