GOLD CIRCLE

It Is Written - the Dynasty gelding could win if finding his best form

FAIRVIEW MILE (NBT) at Fairview on Friday

P

Our racing programmers obviously don’t believe in a gradual weaning off. We have gone helter skelter from the champagne and caviar high of last weekend’s Sun Met celebrations at Kenilworth to the beer and braai of a Fairview non black-type feature this Friday.

unters are hardy and adaptable creatures and life will go on with the Fairview turf nine race programme offering some scope for decent exotic payouts.

Tara Laing has been in fine form over an extended period and Markus Jooste’s only lady trainer saddles three runners in the ten horse field.

Wayne Agrella jumps aboard the topweight, 7yo Readytogorightnow, who came back to something like his better form last time when running on very well over the course and distance to beat the capable True Master going away by 2 lengths.

The son of More Than Ready is a seven-time winner and it is worth reflecting on some of his career highs for a moment.

He won two legs of the 2013 Winter Series – the same races won in the past by names like Winter Solstice, Pocket Power and more recently July winner Power King and Marinaresco.

Readytogorightnow also finished fourth behind subsequent Met winner Futura in the 2014 Gr1 Champions Cup. But that’s recent history in the scheme of finding a winner on Friday and there are a few others that look likely to put the 7yo under pressure.

Back-Up His stablemates Orchestrated and Captains Slipper are both capable on their day.

Captains Slipper has a bad habit of hanging and is yet to win over the mile. The 6yo may have needed it last time when running a fair fifth behind Afrikaburn and certainly holds the edge on Eternal Jet and Mister Matchett.

Orchestrated has lost form after winning his second start since relocating from Gauteng.

His two runs on each of the poly and turf have rendered little and he will need to improve to feature.

Justin Snaith’s It Is Written has his first run in the Eastern Cape and the 2015 Gr3 Christmas Handicap winner (when in the care of Dean Kannemeyer) could run a big race, given the form of his last run.

He finished 5th and 3,30 lengths behind Met winner Whisky Baron last time out and also had subsequent Gr2 Cape Stayers Handicap winner Krambambuli just 0,40 lengths ahead of him at level weights.

With improved fitness at his third run post a rest, that looks close to winning form in this field.

Blinkers Off Big things are expected of the once promising 3yo Welsh Emperor who has the blinkers removed after a flat effort last time.

The son of Go Deputy runs like a horse looking for more but may well be best around this trip and if not in need of it after an 11 week break, must be considered. The trainer-jockey combo of Greeff and Met winner Cheyne are lethal here.

Renate du Plessis-trained Fly Like The Wind has threatened to win again soon with three decent runs in his 4yo term so far.

The son of Windrush enjoys running at them late off a decent gallop and is very effective over the track and trip.

It is also worth noting that he was sent to Cape Town for the first leg of the winter series last season and was not disgraced, running a 4,85 length fourth to subsequent Champions Cup winner, Marinaresco.

Martial Law The 5yo Kiss Me Hardy has his 45th run on Friday but appears to be battling for his next win – he has scored 50% of his successes at Flamingo Park and has only won once (his maiden) on turf.

He will strip a fit horse but

will need to show more to suggest he has any scope of challenging for the main cheque.

Laws Of Succession is the first of the Bremner duo and this dual course-and-distance winner has improved into a fair sort.

He ran on smartly to beat Fly Like The Wind by a narrow margin last time out on the poly and meets the Du Plessis charge on 1,5kgs worse terms – but on the grass.

Well drawn and with a handy galloping weight, he looks a must include for all exotics.

Jet Power Formerly with Dennis Drier and considered a classic prospect as a 3yo, his stablemate, the 6yo Eternal Jet has never reached the heights envisaged for him.

The 6yo son of Jet Master showed his first spark of zest for some time when taking off late over the turf 1400m at his last start to get within a half length of former Gr1 winner, Afrikaburn.

A repeat of that off joint bottomweight in this field would suggest he has a place chance but both Captains

Slipper (2kgs better for a 2,60 length beating ) and Mister Matchett (4,50kgs better for a 5,55 length beating) are closer to him.

Mister Matchett has plenty to do on current form and there is nothing to suggest that he can win over the mile.

He has tumbled down the ratings from a career high of 100 achieved as a 5yo down to a modest 78.

The son of Badger’s Drift has not won a race in nine tries since transferring here in October 2016.

He is also winless since October 2015, has only won up to 1400m and at the age of 6 is not improving either.

Written Word This is a tough little handicap, where It Is Written puts his hands up on readiness, class and best past performance.

The local hope Laws Of Succession is no slouch and may be ready to win again with plenty in his favour.

Fly Like The Wind and Welsh Emperor may be best of the rest, while Readytogorightnow last time improved and once ran off a 108!

Whisky Baron finishes powerfully under Greg Cheyne. Second placed Legal Eagle’s head is in the pic – while third placed Captain America (Corne Orffer) stays on gamely

Gr1 SUN MET at Kenilworth last Saturday

T

Phillipi trainer Brett Crawford saddled his third winner in the Cape’s flagship race when the Australian-bred Whisky Baron continued his meteoric rise through the ranks with a superb win in the R5 million Gr1 Sun Met, celebrated with Mumm Champagne, at Kenilworth on Saturday.

he 4yo Whisky Baron made it five straight wins since gelding six months ago, when he romped to a popular victory in South Africa’s richest group race in front of a festive crowd at the sunswept Southern Suburbs track.

Crawford celebrated a champagne day at his hometrack with wins in the Gr1 Investec Cape Derby and the inaugural Kuda Sprint rounding off the highlight of training first – and third – in the big one.

He won the then J&B Met with Futura in 2015 and Angus, a horse he said was fashioned in much the same mould as Saturday’s star Whisky Baron, in 2003.

For the 40 year old Greg Cheyne, who is the current SA national jockey log leader, it was a dream first Met win on a horse whose name would have been a marketing plus for the longstanding previous sponsors!

Cheyne, who is retained by

Ridgemont Stud, who recently announced their purchase of the iconic Highlands Stud, has been aboard at five of Whisky Baron’s six victories, and the pair have formed a formidable combination.

Corne Orffer took Captain America out to lead The Conglomerate, with Gold Standard and Legal Eagle in attendance, and plenty of jostling for position early on.

Captain America brought them for home and looked to be comfortable out front as Whisky Baron found himself some ten lengths back, with plenty of work to do.

All the action was on the outside as Legal Eagle and Gold Standard challenged the leader Captain America, who was drifting out under pressure at the 400m.

The gap between the tiring pacesetter and Legal Eagle became tight for Gold Standard, and Richard Fourie was forced to check his mount out as Legal Eagle chased hard.

At the 300m Legal Eagle looked to be in with a shout,

Gr1 Sun Menut ary

Ja Kenilworth, 28er for train rd Brett Crawfo

but Greg Cheyne appeared on the scene with Whisky Baron in full stride at the 250m.

The enthusiastic galloper took off to beat SA Horse Of The Year Legal Eagle by 1,50 lengths in a time of 122,71 secs – close on 5 seconds faster than the Investec Cape Derby run earlier.

For Legal Eagle, who recently won his second consecutive L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate, it was a case of history repeating itself, after the filly Smart Call had beaten him last year.

The ever present Captain America held on gallantly for third, a further 0,30 lengths back and survived an objection by Selangor Cup winner Gold Standard.

The 3yo Gold Standard ran on well but after his late check merely stayed on for fourth, without really looking a winner over the final 100m.

He looks a decent sort in the making and will be an exciting 4yo.

The challenge from USAbound Champions Cup winner

Marinaresco also failed to materialise and the son of Silvano ran a 4,05 length fifth. He remains a puzzle and may well have been flattered by that Champions Cup success.

The Paddock Stakes winner Bela-Bela ghosted down the inside rail looking very dangerous, but had no answers, stopping to run seventh.

The rest, including July winner The Conglomerate, were well beaten.

The Avontuur-sponsored Greg Cheyne, who was registering his first Met win and whose major previous success was on the ill-fated Big City Life in the 2009 Vodacom Durban July, said that winning the Met in his hometown was ‘something special’.

“I tracked a bit deep early on in the back straight and we managed to find the fence – the pace was genuine – I saw Legal Eagle and knew he was my lead. Whisky Baron gave me everything he had. I must say a massive thanks to Ridgemont Stud – Wayne and Belinda (Kieswetter) are the driving force and to Craig and Ross (their sons) who own the winner, a big word of thanks and congratulations”.

Brett Crawford confirmed that it had been something of a ‘fairytale ride’ since his charge had been gelded in July.

“I am a firm believer that when horses get into winning ways it gives them an edge.

He had a lot of ground to make up in the straight and looked to be labouring at one stage. But then he picked it up nicely and went on well.

A great run from Captain America too,” he said.

Bred by Arrowfield Stud, Whisky Baron was a A$50,000 Inglis Easter purchase for C Roscoe/ J Ramsden. He became the

ninth stakes winner for Redoute’s Choice half-brother Manhattan Rain.

He is the only Black Type horse among four winners out of the unraced Sinndar mare, Tazkara (Fr).

Whisky Baron is unbeaten as a 4yo and has won 6 races with 7 places from 13 starts for stakes of R3 446 375.

A great race – just such a pity at the way the public were kept in the dark about the objection.

Frankie Dettori’s R1500 salute on Edict Of Nantes

Nightingale flies up in the hands of Anthony Delpech to beat the obscured Star Express and Goodtime Gal

Gr1 KLAWERVLEI MAJORCA STAKES at Kenilworth Gr1 INVESTEC CAPE DERBY at Kenilworth last Saturday

T

Once rated the world’s best jockey, multiple British Champion Frankie Dettori always does things in style and rode his first ever winner in the Cape when steering Edict Of Nantes to victory in the R1 million Investec Gr1 Cape Derby at Kenilworth.

he four-time Prix de L’Arc de Triomphe winner and double Epsom Derby champion rode a beautifully judged race on Brett Crawford’s’ Edict Of Nantes and mastered the ‘Cape crawl’ – not something he is too used to – as he tracked pacesetter Zodiac Ruler all the way around.

Pace was always a question mark in the small field but this did not hinder the Investec Ambassador who proved that his trip to Cape Town courtesy of Bernard Kantor was no sightseeing party.

The boom one-time sales record-breaker horse Horizon started favourite but failed to deliver and the door was opened for the flamboyant Dettori to showcase his skills and this he did with aplomb.

With the confidence of being told that his mount would stay the 2000m, he tracked Piere Strydom and Zodiac Ruler all the way, before pulling the trigger at the 450m mark.

Edict Of Nantes moved ahead strongly and even though it looked like Frankie might have gone a stride or two early, the son of Count Dubois ran all the way to the line to win in a time of 127,43 secs.

Zodiac Ruler stayed on well to come back for second ahead of the filly Captain Gambler, who finished best of the Ramsden trio for third.

Horizon moved up at the 350m but failed to go on with his effort, while the highly vaunted Table Bay was ridden with different tactics but failed to feature.

ONLINE delivered to your email every Thursday

Edict Of Nantes doused the speculation that he had worked poorly in the build-up and after decent efforts in the Choice Carriers, Selangor and the Cape Guineas, showed that he has a bright future ahead of him.

Trainer Brett Crawford enjoyed a great day at the office and was celebrating a first ever Gr1 success for Mayfair Speculators.

A Klawervlei Farm Sale graduate, Edict Of Nantes has now won 4 races with 4 places from 10 starts and took his stakes earnings to R914 375.

He is the fifth Gr1 winner for Bernard Kantor’s Zafonic stallion Count Dubois out of the four-time winning Jet Master mare, Pagan Dance – who only won up to 1200m.

The R1 million Gr1 Klawervlei Majorca Stakes produced the finish of the afternoon at Kenilworth on Saturday with the race changing complexion late and ending with under two lengths covering the top four.

ith her stablemate Silver Mountain starting favourite, the pressure was off Anthony Delpech on Nightingale and the top jockey rode a superbly judged race to give Candice Bass-Robinson her first Gr1 success.

The Milnerton conditioner may well have thought that honour would fall to the likes of the more fancied stablemate – or even Horizon and Marinaresco later on – but Nightingale showed that her SA Champions Season form as a 3yo was no flash in the pan.

It was a watershed moment for Delpech in more ways than one – it being his first Gr1 win for his employers Wilgerbosdrift and Mauritzfontein since being contracted at the beginning of the season and also a first Gr1 for Mum and Daughter, Mary and Jessica Slack in their powerful partnership of Mauritzfontein and Wilgerbosdrift.

awa r d s Longines World’s Best Racehorses

All About Arrogate

Saturday’s Pegasus World Cup crowned a glorious week for Saudi Arabia’s Prince Khalid bin Abdullah and his wonder horse Arrogate.

The son of Unbridled’s Song, who is trained at Kentucky-based Juddmonte Farms, was named the best racehorse in the world in London last Monday and beat Chrome and Australian wonder-mare Winx to the 2016 Longines World’s Best Racehorse award.

After announcing his arrival in August by winning the LONGINES World’s 147-year-old Travers Stakes in a track-record time, the Best Racehorse Rankings colt then pipped the much-loved California Chrome at Leading Horses the last in November’s epic Breeders’ Cup Classic.

Rank Horse Rating Trained He picked up his biggest cheque in Saturday’s Gr1 1 Arrogate 134 USA Pegasus World at Gulfstream Park.

2 California Chrome 133 USA “It’s remarkable, it really is,” Juddmonte’s delighted 3 Winx 132 AUS racing manager Teddy Grimthorpe said after the plush 4 Almanzor 129 FR ceremony at Claridge’s Hotel.

5 A Shin Hikari 127 JPN “It’s a great result for Juddmonte and for Prince Khalid to 5 Maurice 127 JPN have his horse recognized.”

7 Frosted 126 USA Last year’s Met winner Smart Call and Saturday’s 8 Found (IRE) 124 IRE Sun Met runner-up and reigning SA Horse Of The Year 8 Hartnell 124 AUS Legal Eagle were joint Top Rated South African bred 8 Postponed 124 GB thoroughbreds of 2016.

8 Werther 124 HK They were given a rating of 119.

There was no early sign of things to come as Delpech struggled to find a gap for relief from his wide barrier gate. But his vast experience told as he settled Nightingale and relaxed her.

Into the straight, Nightingale only had one behind her as Final Judgement went for broke, challenging pacesetter Alexis, with Silver Mountain and Goodtime Gal looking dangerous.

At the 300m, things looked bleak for Nightingale, but Delpech was not giving up and he balanced her for a final thrust. She responded and kicked almost simultaneously with Star Express down her inside at the 250m.

The pair swept past Goodtime Gal and went for the line.

Delpech had timed his effort perfectly and Nightingale’s momentum carried her to a half length win over the very consistent Star Express, in a time of 99,01 secs.

The top two are both daughters of former champion sire Silvano – and the third placed Goodtime Gal made it a great race for the Maine Chance stallion, as she is out of a dam by the top sire.

Gr2 Golden Slipper winner Final Judgement hung on gamely to round off the quartet.

The favourite Silver Mountain plodded late and was a further 0,30 lengths back in fifth.

While the poor draw did not stop the winner, the 2015 Cape Fillies Guineas winner did not have the same luck but had every chance in the straight.

The 3yo Lady Of The House failed to build on her excellent fringe effort in the Cape Fillies Guineas and finished a 4,15 length ninth.

Gr1 SA Fillies Sprint winner Real Princess ran a dismal race and appears to not stay the mile.

An obviously elated Anthony Delpech said that Nightingale had often run behind some very good ones.

“I got lucky today. She’s a very good filly and will be a huge plus in the paddock. I am thrilled to have got my first Gr1 for MauritzfonteinWilgerbosdrift on such a great day,” he said.

Candice Bass-Robinson, who maintained the family’s good record in the race – Dad Mike won it the past two years – said that Delpech ‘had kept his cool’ and things had worked out well.

Bred by Wilgerbosdrift, Nightingale is a daughter of Silvano out of the four-time winning Fort Wood mare, Quickwood.

This was her first stakes success in 4 wins, 7 places from 14 starts for stakes of R1 153 375.

Fun With The S

U

N

Saturday, 28 January was the inaugural running of the Gr1 Sun Met Celebrated With Mumm. I confess I was a little nervous of what this year’s event would produce.

J&B have been around all my race-going life and their withdrawal, while not unexpected, still left one feeling a little bereft. A 39 year sponsorship is not to be sneezed at and was always going to be a tough act to follow, but I think Sun Met succeeded.

Firstly, the weather played along, which is always a huge help. We had enough rain during the week to get the track just about perfect and Sun Met Saturday dawned warm and sunny. There was a bit of a traffic jam trying to get to the event, but things moved along steadily enough for it to add to the anticipation, rather than be an annoyance.

New sponsor The sponsors and organisers had clearly gone to a lot of time, trouble and, let’s face it, expense, but it all seemed focussed in the right places. The course was beautifully dressed and the Sun Met and Mumm branding was everywhere, which immediately gave a sense of identity and coherence. Gone the traditional yellow and red and in its place the Sun guys had gone for a fresh, bright colour scheme which lent itself well to the party crowd and ‘Decades of Glamour’ theme.

I loved the bold colours and thought the winning post looked particularly jolly.

The sponsors successfully borrowed the idea of a fun and user-friendly installation for the selfie snappers, strategically placed just behind the winner’s enclosure which got the crowds closer to the horses.

There were interesting touches such as the electronic running boards along the track and lots of extra cameras, including one mounted on a jib arm along the track to film the canter pasts and post race activities on the track. The running boards were the source of a certain amount of concern among the horse folk, but were judiciously employed so as not to upset the horses and were deftly updated after every race to display the details of the winning horse.

Nice touch!

The tents and hospitality areas were sensibly spaced, allowing the course to feel pleasantly full, but not uncomfortably so and it was still possible to get around with ease. If I had to be nitpicky, the picnic areas along the rail might have been better placed back from the rail as tried so successfully at the L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate this year, as the areas were

not full and kept a lot of the public away from the rail and the cut and thrust of the fight for the line – perhaps this was why there was no roar from the crowd as the gates crashed opened this year.

While there was not the Met crush of my youth, there were more than enough people to provide an atmosphere. The Sun guys also seemed to hit on a really great vibe – the crowd was definitely Cape Town dressed up, there was a playful, festival atmosphere and those who came seemed in the mood to have fun.

All in all, the stage was set for a great afternoon’s entertainment and as always, the racing delivered in spades.

The Racing The 13 race card looked a bit of a marathon, but with great horses, great racing, lots of visiting horses, jockeys, trainers and even TV presenters, the crowd got more than their money’s worth and the afternoon flew by. A little like the July, the Met also seems to bring out racing folk that one doesn’t see at any other time of the year, so there were lots of fun people to catch up with, including Felix Coetzee, home for a brief holiday from Hong Kong.

Snaith Racing opened proceedings by winning the first race with Captain Swarovski (one of their 8 card winners from last year) for Michael de Broglio. Joey Ramsden’s Goodhope Racing team drew first blood in the first of the day’s features with Donovan Dillon securing the Listed Summer Juvenile Stakes for Bernard Kantor with his homebred Call To Account.

Brett Crawford gave an inkling as to what was to come, winning the inaugural KUDA Sprint.

The prospect of a 20 horse cavalry charge for R1 million in a field of 2yos is something of a daunting prospect, but Corne Orffer brought Mrs Sherrell’s Bold Respect home in a fighting finish from Wonderwall.

The CTS US Dollar sales races swept into their second year and phase 2 with the one million dollars now split in half, allowing two bites at the cherry with an

added carrot should the same person own the winner of both races. Having missed out on the Queen’s Plate festival, it was wonderful to see the Hunkydory Investments team on course to lead in their CTS Sprint winner, Live Life. The CTS Mile laurels belonged solely to William Longsword, who put the strong field to bed with a contemptuous 1.75 lengths.

I must comment on the exquisite winning trophies, which are beautifully crafted. Last year Investec produced a documentary explaining the design and manufacturing process and they are yet another touch which helps set the day apart.

Hmmm…

Being a stickler for tradition, it was curious to note that the CTS runners had names added to the number cloths, while the Cape Flying field did without – rather odd for a race with Gr1 status.

However, Carry On Alice’s distinctive blaze was easy to pick out as she flattened her ears to break her Kenilworth hoodoo. It was a much deserved victory for her delighted connections and great to see our champion trainer and jockey combination secure a Gr1 win. The day produced another bit of history when Candice B a s s Robinson celebrated her first Gr1 with a

very accomplished performance

by Nightingale and Anthony Delpech – clearly back to best after his shoulder op - in the Klawervlei Majorca Stakes. Congratulations to the Mauritzfontein / Wilgerbosdrift team, who have yet another good filly to add to their broodmare band.

Fantastic Frankie While only 9 starters took their place for the Investec Cape Derby, the crowd got their money’s worth from an ebullient Frankie Dettori who rode a beautifully judged race, getting the jump on the field to steer Edict of Nantes to a clear victory and another win on the card for Brett Crawford. He also thrilled the crowd with one of his famous flying dismounts.

Securing Frankie for the day was a coup for the organisers and Frankie rose to the occasion.

He was in Gallic good humour all day, smiling and waving to the crowd, posing good-naturedly for photographs and adding a touch of flair and fun to the day’s proceedings.

Frenchman Stephane Pasquier also added to the visiting jockey ranks and, having made his visit a busy one with rides at Turffontein, the Vaal, Fairview and Kenilworth, got a solid working tour of our local horses and facilities.

The inaugural Sun Met also saw a high quality field turn up to do battle and when one is presented with a field of horses of this quality, all you can do is be grateful for days, sponsors and races like this. It is always a shame that only one can win when so many deserve to, but given the spirit of the day, there could be no more appropriate winners than the Whisky Baron Kieswetter boys and their brass plaque and they were soundly cheered home. Also a very nice touch was the post race parade with Greg Cheyne taking Whisky Baron for a victory canter to show off his sash to an appreciative crowd. Huge congrats to Brett Crawford and his team on their third Met victory.

The Cape Stayers is always a crowd pleaser with the horses jumping right in front of the grandstand and I was chuffed to see Krambambuli and Aldo Domeyer celebrate a well deserved win for Snaith Racing.

Brett Crawford saddled his fourth winner of the day in Winter Prince in the Richmark Holdings Handicap (with a son of previous Met winner, Imperious Sue) and he and the stable deserve special fuss for a stellar day’s results.

‘Uncle Den’ Dennis Drier and Sean Veale grabbed a nail-biter in the penultimate race of the afternoon with the daughter of Horse Chestnut, The High Life and the Snaiths bookended the meeting with their winner in the last, Gimme Six with Gavin Lerena in the saddle for Hassen Adams. As the sun set over Kenilworth and the last of the horses were loaded for the drive home, the racing fraternity handed over the reins to the party crowd.

Fun for Everyone Huge congrats to the sponsors and organisers who achieved a very successful first crack of the whip. Although plans for a bridge across the chute could not be realised, the logistics worked well.

The course looked beautiful, there were no problems with starting stalls, loose horses or any other mishaps and there was certainly plenty on the card to please the purist. As a bit of fun, the breeding fundis would have enjoyed seeing all of Cloth Of Cloud, Silver Mountain and Helderberg Blue (all out of Our Table Mountain) in the CTS Sprint, Majorca and Cape Stayers respectively; full brothers Red Ray and Brutal Force lined up against each other in the Cape Flying Championship and William Longsword and his half sister, Real Princess represented their family in the CTS Mile and Majorca Stakes.

There were equal amounts of blue blooded racing folk on course, with a large gathering of the Garrett and Laird family appropriately stationed in the first floor Garrett Bar. It was a privilege to get a warm hug from Marlene Laird, frail but still full of life and good humour and getting to share some of their racing stories and memories. Syd Garrett single-handedly won 11 Metropolitan Stakes during his career, with Russell, Syd and Alec Laird collecting another 6 between them to date. With Syd Garrett’s youngest daughter, Glendyr and members of the extended Laird family having travelled from far and wide to attend the race was a bit of solid gold racing provenance, particularly on such an auspicious day. It was rather a shame their presence wasn’t made more of.

There seemed enough entertainment on course to keep the day trippers happy without the need for the ‘doef-doef’ music of years gone by and the horses and crowds co-existed very happily.

I bumped into Sun International’s Rob Dalton on the apron towards the end of the day, who expressed satisfaction with how the day had gone. With no post race press conference it is hard to know what the day’s attendance and turnover were, but it seemed a very promising start to what will hopefully grow into a long and lasting partnership. Cheers!

SPORTING POST • FRIDAY 3rd - SUNDAY 5th FEBRUARY 2017

That’s It For William $500 000 CTS MILE at Kenilworth last Saturday Cape Guineas winner William Longsword confirmed his connections’ dreams and plans firmly on track for his impending career as a stallion when he stormed away to win the inaugural $500 000 CTS Mile at Kenilworth on Saturday in what is likely to be his swansong appearance.

T

he son of Captain Al had rocketed to prominence when winning the big Cape classic six weeks earlier and stuck to the script as he notched his sixth win from eight starts in impressive style to take his career earnings to over R4 million.

With Anton Marcus taking the reins from MJ Byleveld who had won the Cape Guineas aboard William Longsword, the race worked out well as he tracked Cape Fillies Guineas winner Just Sensual (also in the Mayfair silks) into the straight and then brought his beautiful stride into play.

Trainer Vaughan Marshall, who guided the colt’s champion sire Captain Al through his career, had William Longsword on song and the 3yo proved too strong

for some quality opponents as he strode clear to win by 1,75 lengths in a time of 99,20 secs and bank the R3 300 000 first cheque.

The poorly drawn Snaith runner Copper Force caught the eye when he flew up from lengths back. The son of Royal Air Force cost just R70 000 at sale and took his earnings to close on R1,5 million at his sixth career start. He is one for the notebook.

The Gr2 Dingaans winner Singapore Sling stayed on nicely for his R990 000 cheque in third a short head away, while Gr3 Protea Stakes victor Janoobi, another Gauteng raider, was a half length back in fourth to secure a welcome R660 000.

The 2016 Lanzerac Ready To Run Stakes winner Safe Harbour also ran another cracker and was the first filly home. She was the final earner in fifth place, adding

the R264 000 to her Cape Summer Of Champions haul.

She has surely earned a break after a tough campaign and the connections of this R180 000 buy will be thrilled with her R2 million plus earnings and small black type picked up with outstanding runner-up efforts in the Fillies Guineas and Paddock Stakes.

Of the balance, Gr3 Starling Stakes winner She’s A Giver (6,50 lengths) disappointed again and went home empty handed from a forgettable Cape campaign.

After showing a lot of pace, Cape Fillies Guineas winner Just Sensual fell away to run 6,85 lengths down the field.

Jockey Anton Marcus said that he couldn’t quite make out the 3yo form and had been concerned about the fillies.

“William Longsword put things into perspective today.

The Guineas was no fluke!

He is a magnificent athlete.

I just want to say a big shout out to MJ Byleveld – it takes somebody bigger than the game to be so sporting. Also to the boss (Markus Jooste), who is here today – thanks for all the support.”

Owner Markus Jooste said that the script had worked out perfectly and he was proud of the association with a champion jockey who

William Longsword strides clear under Anton Marcus for his big payday had won the Met for them in 2014, a champion sire in Captain Al and champion breeders in Klawervlei.

Jooste’s Mayfair Speculators won 2 of the 13 races on the day – the Investec Cape Derby with Edict Of Nantes being the other – but would also have been pleased with the 2nd and 3rd respectively of Always In Charge and Attenborough in the CTS 1200; Red Ray’s improved effort for 3rd in the Cape Flying Championship; and Legal Eagle’s tremendous effort for second in the Sun Met. While plans in horseracing always tend to be fluid, the word is that the winner will be

going back to his birthplace to take up stallion duties.

While it is not generally the norm to send a perfectly healthy 3yo to stud in this country, there really is little sense in taking in races in the SA Champions Season like the Gr2 KRA Guineas, and he looks unlikely to stay the 2000m of the Daily News.

William Longsword, a R2,2 million Cape Premier Yearling Sale Book 1 purchase, was bred by Klawervlei Stud.

Carry On Alice stays on strongly under S'Manga Khumalo and stablemate Grant van Niekerk runs on powerfully

Gr1 BETTING WORLD CAPE FLYING CHAMPIONSHIP at Kenilworth last Saturday Champion racemare Carry On Alice showed her courage and blue chip ability when withstanding a towering late challenge from her stablemate Trip To Heaven and the top-class Red Ray to win the R1 million Gr1 Cape Flying Championship at Kenilworth.

A

Gr1 winner at 2, 3, 4 – and now as a 5yo- Alice’s record speaks volumes of the longevity and character of a sprinter who has mixed it with the best of the males of her generation, and come out tops, more often than not.

And she didn’t disappoint her fans on Saturday, getting her act together after a few off colour performances, to remind us just how good she really is.

SA Champion trainer Sean Tarry was expected to dominate the race and he did, with the winner’s stablemate and favourite running a cracker to get second.

Regular rider S’manga Khumalo had Carry On Alice just off the early pace towards the centre of the track as Captain Alfredo and Jo’s Bond made the running.

‘Bling’ pressed the launch button at the 300m and Carry On Alice came forward with

Jo’s Bond running the race of her life.

After a slow start, Trip To Heaven could be seen making ground but was way out of range.

At the same time Red Ray was moving up on the inside and Trip To Heaven was gathering his momentum and weaving through traffic.

Into the final 100m, Red Ray and Trip To Heaven came at Carry On Alice, but the magic mare had too much in reserve and she went on to a great win by 0,30 lengths in a time of 58,22 secs.

Trip To Heaven ran a ‘sensational’ race in the words of his trainer after his slow start to pip Red Ray for second.

Snaith’s speed filly Jo’s Bond ran out of her skin for a 1,15 length fourth.

The Wilgerbosdrift-Mauritzfontein sponsored Khumalo said that the winner had needed her last few runs. “She is a special mare and a real champion,” he added.

Another Million Dollar Race for SA This one’s for the birds.

Racing pigeons!

Emerald Resort & Casino hosts the 21st Million Dollar Pigeon Race this weekend, with prize money close to $2 million.

Over the years, more than 1500 international fanciers from 35 different countries have taken part.

Entrants from all walks of life pit their pigeons against each other – they include advocates, farmers, doctors, CEO’s and many noble houses from the Middle East.

Queen Elizabeth is entering on behalf of charity organisations both locally and in the United Kingdom.

Saturday 4 February is race day, when pigeon fanciers from all over the world converge to watch the action at the lofts.

The next day sees the auction of the top 50 pigeons - last year’s winning pigeon sold for $100.000 on www.iPigeon.com.

Horse breeders are mostly foreign to the intricacies of breeding racing pigeons. Among the entrants for the Million Dollar contest will be birds with sires and dams bred on close crosses – father to daughter, son to mother, cousin to cousin… all extreme athletes who can fly like the wind.

Hillbilly Rules!

More information regarding the race can be found at https://www.samdpr.com/.

Samples of big bird pedigrees, for interest and education, are here http://www.galaxyloft. com/pedigrees.html

Tarry explained that he had prepared Carry On Alice differently to last year, when she had finished third. He had brought her down earlier and got her fit through racing. The tactic worked!

“It is a real privilege to train a horse that has won a Gr1 every season,” he said.

Carry On Alice has won four Gr1 races, the SA Nursery at Turffontein as a two-year-

old, the SA Fillies Sprint at Scottsville as a three-yearold, the Computaform Sprint at Turffontein as a four-yearold and now the Cape Flying Championship aged five.

Carry On Alice was bred

by Klawervlei Stud and is by champion sire Captain Al, who had sired four of the first six winners on the big day.

The winner is out of the four time winning Western Winter mare, Carry On Katie.

Her dam was a multiple Gr1 placed Gr2 winner as a 2yo.

Carry On Alice has now won 9 races with 12 places from 26 starts and R3 941 250 in stakes.

She was purchased for R475 000 on the Cape Premier Yearling Sale Book 1 and races in the interests of Chris Van Niekerk, UK-based Dr J Warner and his wife Jill, in partnership with her breeders.

SPLIT TIMES for Sun Met-day Making Sense Of Results

The 1600m races 5 CTS Mile 7 Majorca S. 11 MR 95 Hcp

to bend 23.93 23.99 25.40

to straight 63.46 61.45 63.08

the bend 39.53 37.46 37.68

the straight 35.59 37.26 36.82

If you just looked at the pace for the first 400m and the final times for the CTS Mile and Majorca Stakes, you’d think they were much the same. You couldn’t be more wrong.

The Majorca Stakes was run at a useful, even pace throughout – meaning true-run, with good predictable future value in terms of ratings.

The CTS Mile is best forgotten in that respect. After a good paced first 400m, things were slowed up to such an extent that the distance around the bend was covered some 2 second slower than the other two mile races.

After that it was a sprint for home, where the horses racing handy coming off the bend had a distinct advantage.

To studiers of form and to handicappers using ratings the CTS Mile result is meaningless.

The 2000m races 8 Cape Derby 9 The Met 12 MR 90 Hcp

to bend 50.86 47.71 51.41

to straight 92.19 84.84 89.90

to finish 127.09 122.41 127.11

the bend 41.33 37.13 38.49

the straight 34.90 37.57 37.21

The pace shows what utter rubbish the Cape Derby represents – it was a crawl early on, and even that slowed up on the bend, then followed by a mad sprint for home.

This race is impossible to rate and best struck from all memory.

The Met on the other hand was true run, with a very useful pace throughout, and a result that should stand the test of time.

In comparison, the MR 90 handicap was slow early on, after which the pace gradually increased around the bend and up the straight. Not quite a sprint for home, but certainly not a true run race either. The only 3yo in the race won, a performance which illustrates to influence of a slow pace on weight-for-age – instead of a 2000m race where the WFA deficit for 3yo’s is 6kg, the slow pace made it much less. Interpreting that for rating purposes is a thumb-suck.

The Stayers 10 Cape Stayers

to bend 106.74

to straight 147.22

to finish 183.56

the bend 40.48

the straight 36.34

With the time for the straight fast and the time for the distance around the bend slow, the Cape Stayers was a false run race, decided in a sprint home. Why do we have stayer’s races if staying ability isn’t important?

Live The Life!

$500 000 CTS SPRINT at Kenilworth last Saturday The dashing Trippi filly Live Life banked the second biggest winner’s cheque in over a century of horseracing in this country when she stormed in to win the $500 000 CTS Sprint at Kenilworth on Saturday.

WAYNE MARKS

oming from some lengths off the inside group, recent Gr2 winner Live Life demonstrated her serious ability – and plenty of acceleration – when she was switched sharply from behind the Gr1 winner Always In Charge by jockey Grant van Niekerk and went past the smart Captain Al colt like he was standing still, to win going away.

It was just over a year ago that the ill-fated Illuminator made history when winning the inaugural CTS Million Dollar at the same track.

With Cape Thoroughbred Sales restructuring the golden carrot to create more winners by splitting the original 1400m contest into a 1200m sprint and a mile, the scene was set for a double feature thriller with 40 runners lining up in the two races.

And relative new owners Piet and Vivia du Toit’s Hunkydory

Investments were the happy recipients of the R3 300 000 first cheque as the Avontuur bred Live Life finished too strongly for Always In Charge (no complaints over the runner-up cheque of R1 320 000!) and went on to score by a half length in a time of 70,96 secs.

It was a terrific race for Avontuur, who banked the Vendor’s bonus of $5000 and also bred the classy Attenborough, who finished well in third – and grabbed R990 000 for his efforts.

The winner’s stablemate Extradite earned nearly double her purchase price in fourth with a generous R660 000 payout.

The final earner was the Snaith’s fifth placed Red Light Girl who banked R264 000.

The popular favourite Sergeant Hardy was never going well and finished 9,05 lengths downfield. His breathing issues may have returned to haunt him and his supporters.

She has won 4 races with 3 places from 9 starts and looks a certainty to travel to KZN for the SA Champions Season.

Sired by SA champion Trippi, the R2,5 million Cape Premier Yearling Sale graduate is a daughter of the smashing National Assembly 7-time winning speedster Viva.

Frankie Dettori

Fabulous Frankie There aren’t too many jockeys who jet into a new country, get on unknown horses on an unknown track, win a Gr1 and make it look easy, but it’s all in a day’s work for Frankie Dettori.

Frankie is nearly as fast off a horse as he is on one, but we managed to catch him between engagements on Sunday afternoon to talk to the Sporting Post about his Sun Met trip.

Chatting to Frankie is very much what one might expect after watching him win a race.

He is intelligent and lively and his energy and enthusiasm – even after a pretty tough schedule – are infectious. Still hoarse from celebrating his Derby victory at Kenilworth, he was full of appreciation for South Africa, our local racing and Kenilworth in particular.

Firstly, what made him decide to fly out for the Sun Met? “Last year I was offered the ride on Smart Call when Weichong Marwing hurt his back two days before the race.

When I spoke to the connections, I was on holiday and felt I wasn’t fit enough to do the horse justice.

It would have been unfair on me and the connections if I didn’t do well,” he explains. “In the end, she won by three lengths, so I was a little upset that I’d missed out, but it’s one of those things.”

“I do a bit of work for Bernard Kantor and Investec over in England and after a couple of wines for lunch with Bernard one day, he persuaded me to come to Cape Town for the Sun Met and because he was sponsoring the Investec Cape Derby on the same day, of course I agreed.”

HAMISH NIVEN PHOTGRAPHY

A Warm SA Welcome The Investec folk had planned a surprise welcome for Frankie at Cape Town International in the form of a large billboard inside the airport. “It was as I arrived just before immigration. It was quite embarrassing - half the wall had my face plastered across it! I was trying to keep my head down and look inconspicuous, but while I was queuing a couple of people tapped me on the shoulder to say ‘hey, that’s you !’” he laughs.

Kenilworth Frankie has ridden in South Africa before – perhaps most famously back in 1997 when he came over for a short tour, which was to culminate in him riding London News in the J&B Met. Unfortunately he was indisposed at the last minute, Douglas Whyte was drafted in for the ride and the rest, as they say, is history.

However, following the abortive 1997 trip, Frankie has been back to South Africa several times to participate in our local jockey challenges, but last weekend was the first time he’s ridden at the notoriously tricky Kenilworth track.

“I didn’t know what to expect, but I always like a new challenge in my career and in life and it was amazing. I got good support and good rides and how appropriate to win the race that my sponsor sponsored. It was just fantastic and I’ve got to thank so many people that looked after me – I can’t name them all, but the list is long.”

Asked whether he enjoyed riding at Kenilworth, he was full of praise. “Wow, it’s such an amazing track. I walked it beforehand and the layout of the track is beautiful Also the condition and maintenance – I have to compliment the track manager and staff – it was like galloping on a snooker table.”

The configuration has been known to catch people out, but Frankie took it all in his stride. “I think of all the South African tracks that I’ve ridden at, Kenilworth is probably the closest to an English or European one. I race on this kind of track every day and found it no problem.

I really enjoyed riding the track as I’m very familiar with those kinds of conditions.”

Derby Edict Of Nantes was eyecatching on parade and seemed to produce a smooth ride

in the 9 horse field. He jumped well, sat just off the pace and then sweeping into the straight, Frankie set him alight and they drew clear to what looked a comfortable win.

Frankie says, “I watched his videos beforehand. The trainer was very informative, as were the managers and owners.

Basically I very quickly realised that everybody was telling me that his forte was his staying power. I was also told about the horse by a few people that he was quite laid back and needed a bit of winding up.

Racing at Kenilworth is fast, slow, slow, fast – it’s a bit like dancing.

I knew we were going to start fast and that the pace was going to slack around the bend. The pace was quite slow in the middle of the race. I think it’s unusual for people to kick early at Keniworth and I realised that I had to make the move first and get everyone else in trouble. I decided to use the weapon with my horse and kicked really hard at the 500m just to get everyone else in trouble and the plan worked.”

Did it feel as easy as it looked? “In fairness, I was probably a little aggressive by my standards. I was told the horse was very laid back and big and bully and that I had to stoke him up a bit. That’s quite over the top for me – I am usually more quiet in the saddle.

I don’t like to punish a horse if they can’t win or place.

It is my 30th year of professional riding and that whole scenario of pushing a horse just for the sake of it doesn’t appeal to me any more.”

Frankie was in top form on Saturday, treating the crowds to some top class riding, a flamboyant Derby finish and of course, his trademark flying dismount.

The SA Experience South Africa is renowned for its hospitality – has he had a good stay? “I’ve been overwhelmed since I’ve been here. The passion for horse racing in this country is incredible.

Everybody’s so passionate and loves their racing.

To have a day like Saturday with all those huge sponsors – KUDA, CTS, Investec, Sun International, Mumm is just amazing. To have such a day and such a lot of money in one day! I’m was quite shocked at the knowledge and support and love in this country. I was often recognised in the street – it’s a bit like a soccer player scenario. There really is so much love and passion for horse racing here, I’ve been quite overwhelmed.”

Will there be any time to sightsee before he goes home? “I’ve got a friend out here with me and we had booked to go shark cage diving this week, but the closer it was getting the more nervous I was getting. Now they’ve told us the weather won’t be good enough, so it’s been cancelled, thank God!” he laughs.

He has a few more stud visits and social engagements lined up and then flies home on Tuesday.

“It’s just a short visit, but it’s been wonderful and hopefully next year I will try and stay a bit longer and bring my wife to see your beautiful country.”

‘How’s This?’ asks Aldo Domeyer as Krambambuli stays on best of all to give Justin Snaith his only feature win of the day

R1-million KUDA SPRINT at Kenilworth last Saturday

The inaugural R1 million Kuda Sprint produced a thrilling finish when the Ascot Stud-bred Bold Respect got the better of a short tussle with maiden Wonderwall to go on and win a good race for trainer Brett Crawford and the Sherrell family.

his was Ready To Run racing at its ultimate – the colt only having been purchased three months earlier and taking his stakes earned to close on R700 000 and a 350% return on purchase price.

Twenty hopefuls turned up for the 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.

With a mix of Gauteng raiders and locals the 1200m race was always going to be hotly contested and was won by one of the 5 winners in the field.

The race turned into an exciting duel over the final 200m, with Wonderwall challenging strongly, but Bold Respect showing his appreciation for the extra 200m to prove the stronger by a short head in a time of 72,24 secs.

Glen Kotzen’s good debut winner Gold Image stayed on without threatening the leaders in third, with Ramsden’s Apollo Star came out of the pack to run on strongly in fourth.

Corne Orffer is at his best to get Bold Respect home in a thriller over Wonderwall (Greg Cheyne) Sound failed to fire and finished 13,90 lengths back.

Winning rider Corne Orffer said that he had been instructed to try and get cover in view of the activity on the day. “ But I couldn’t get cover so I let him stride . He waited for Greg’s horse (Wonderwall) to get alongside him and then quickened. He will go places,” said the SMG Cape Town sponsored jockey.

Bold Respect was bred by Ascot Stud and is a son of July winner Bold Silvano out of the versatile three time winning Kabool mare, Respectable Lady – who was bred by Lance Sherrell’s Dad. Bold Respect cost just R200 000 at the CTS Lanzerac Ready To Run Sale and took his earnings to R690 000 with his second win from 3 starts.

He ran second on debut and has proven consistent.

Gr2 CAPE STAYERS at Kenilworth last Saturday It is a rare Met Day when Justin Snaith has to wait nine feature races to lift a trophy. 2017 will not go down as one of the family racing operation’s vintage Met assaults but all’s well that ends well.

A

s in any sport, when one has reached the pinnacle of extraordinary heights, it becomes extremely difficult repeating the feat year in and year out.

Take Met Day 2016. The Snaiths saddled eight winners in twelve races – including the first six in a row!

And things started well enough on Saturday, when Captain Swarovski bolted home under Gavin Lerena in the first to open their account.

One of four Captain Al progeny to win on the afternoon, owner Mike De Broglio claimed his own little piece of history – having enjoyed the final race winner, Baritone, on Met day 2016 and then opening matters in 2017.

With 40 carded runners on the afternoon, it was a long wait after Captain Swarovski for

Joey’s Call To Account

J

Joey Ramsden got his Sun Met day off to a flying start when breaking the Snaith stranglehold on the R150 000 Princess Charlene Of Monaco Foundation SA Listed Summer Juvenile Stakes run over 1000m at Kenilworth on Saturday.

ustin Snaith has won the 2yo feature for the past 5 years running and saddled the good looking first timer Kasimir, who was well supported into second favourite.

But Ramsden had the ace up his sleeve in the form of recent debut third Call To Account, who went off at 18-1.

Owned and bred by Bernard Kantor, the daughter of Captain Al blitzed her way up the inside rail under Donovan Dillon in the bright yellow silks and went on powerfully to resist the late challenge of Kasimir by 0,75 lengths in a time of 58,65 secs, to make it a Captain Al exacta.

The favourite Dutch Philip had every chance but battled to get going and stayed on for third a further 0,75 lengths back.

Var’s daughter Purple Diamond was best of the rest and showed good improvement at 100-1 to boost the quartet in excess of R9000.

Call To Account is out of the three-time winning Giant’s Causeway mare, Jean Jeannie – named in honour of the late Jean Jaffee.

Jockey Donovan Dillon said that he had been very confident after

Donovan Dillon steers Call To Account in the Bernard Kantor silks to a convincing win the winner’s good work during the week.

Trainer Joey Ramsden added that William Haggas had sent him the dam and the winner ‘was a lot quicker than her Mum!’ Call To Account was a R175 000 Cape Premier Yearling Sale Book 1 graduate. Her career record stands at 2 starts, 1win, 1 place and stakes earnings R101 250.

Justin – nine races to be exact – and he cut it quite fine as it was the last feature of the afternoon, too!

The yard had a strong three-cornered hand in the R400 000 Gr2 Cape Stayers, including the joint topweight and favourite Ovidio and Gr3 Algoa Cup winner, Captain Splendid.

But it was the third of their trio in the form of the Plattner home-bred Krambambuli who was to prove the star of the show.

Winless in over a year, Krambambuli confirmed the form of his solid Gr2 Peninsula Handicap fourth to subsequent Sun Met winner Whisky Baron at his last start and surged clear under an elated Aldo Domeyer to win by 1,25 lengths in a time of 183,72 secs.

Helderberg Blue came out of the pack to overtake the slightly lacklustre favourite Ovidio, who failed to kick.

Royal Badge ran a better race again to run fourth, while Captain Splendid was given a mountain to climb and caught the eye flying up for a 2,35 length fifth.

Justin paid tribute to the patience of owner Sabine Plattner.

“One would have thought I would have been fired after Krambambuli had been winless for 400 plus days. But it goes to show the reward for patience and I must thank Mrs Plattner.

She has been a solid supporter of mine since I started out.”

On the subject of Met Day, he conceded things had been tough.

“Look, it’s getting stronger every year with the international interest and participation. It’s a great day’s racing and I must pay tribute to the Kieswetter family on their achievement,” he added.

Krambambuli has won 5 races with 8 places from 22 starts and took his stakes earnings to R663 000.

Bred by La Plaisance Stud, he is a son of Black Minnaloushe out of the well-bred five time winning Woodman mare, Sailing To Rio, who also raced in the Plattner silks.

The multiple stakes placed Sailing To Rio won four in a row early on in her career and was very talented.

Things ended well for Justin – he saddled the final winner of the afternoon yet again. Gimme Six won the thirteenth, an MR 82 Handicap, in the hands of Gavin Lerena.

Big Red Lives On The year 2017 commemorates the 100th birthday of one of the sport’s greatest heroes

M

an O’War, famously described as the ‘mostest horse’, is widely regarded as the greatest racehorse bred in the US - although fans of US Triple Crown winner Secretariat often hotly dispute this!

Man O’War, known to his thousands of fans as ‘Big Red’ as was Secretariat later, won 20 of 21 outings, his sole loss coming as a 2yo when given a controversial ride in the Sanford Stakes.

The champion was voted the Top Horse of the 20th century by The Blood-Horse and ESPN, as well as the 81st athlete overall by ESPN - an unheard honour for a racehorse!

Winner of the classic Preakness Stakes and Belmont Stakes as a 3yo, Man O’War carried up to 138lbs (63kg) in his races, giving away as much 32lbs to his rivals. His winning margins varied from one length to a reputed more than 100 lengths (when whipping his solitary rival in the 1920 Lawrence Realization Stakes). He set eight track or world records.

Man O’War went on to enjoy huge success at stud, allegedly covering mares of widely vaying quality, and was North America’s Leading Sire in 1926.

His Triple Crown winning son War Admiral was top sire in 1945, and leading Sire Of Broodmares twice.

Man O’War sired 64 stakes winners from 379 foals, including War Admiral, and Belmont Stakes winners American Flag and Crusader.

Last week’s Pegasus World Cup winner Arrogate (Unbridled’s Song) has multiple lines of the champion, with

winner, is one of the leading examples of this once dominant male line. This grandson of Relaunch has sired over 60 stakes winners, including 2016 Breeders’ Cup winners Tourist and Folklore.

Tiznow is also making a name for himself as a sire of sires, his flag bearer the promising Gemologist, whose first 2yo’s last season included Gr1 Frizette Stakes winner Yellow Agate.

his grandsire Unbridled carrying at least six lines of Man O’War and sons. He is also found multiple times in the pedigree of America’s most recent Triple Crown winner American Pharoah (Pioneerof The Nile).

Fappiano, whose male line descendants include

sires Candy Ride, Unbridled, Unbridled’s Song and Empire Maker, is inbred to Man O’War. Three-time US Champion Sire Tapit is another inbred to the great horse. With his son War Admiral proving an exceptional broodmare sire (he is damsire of omnipresent

Buckpasser, among others), the name of Man O’War has been safely carried down the past century.

Gr1 producing sire of sires Tiznow, a former Horse Of The Year and dual Breeders’ Cup Classic

Man O’War features prominently in the pedigree of South African champion sire Captain Al, who is inbred to Busanda, a daughter of Man O’War’s War Admiral. Busanda is the dam of Buckpasser, these days found in virtually every stallion-pedigree.

Cee’s Tizzy, the sire of Tiznow, is broodmare sire of South Africa’s champion sprinter elect Trip To Heaven.

Pedigree notes – Gold Standard

Setting New Standards Three-year-old Trippi colt Gold Standard ran the best race in his career when fourth in the Gr1 Sun Met, this after suffering some late interference from Captain America and returning to the unsaddling without his off-fore shoe.

He finished a length behind Captain America, and his Merit Rating seems likely to be increased to somewhere in the region of 114.

Drakenstein Stud, who stand Trippi, had acquired a 50% stake in the colt from Suzanne and Hugo Hattingh on the eve of the Sun Met and he raced in the Drakenstein-blue silks.

Drakenstein’s racing manager Kevin Sommerville confirmed that Charles Faull, who has an outstanding record advising the top farm, had recommended Gold Standard.

"We naturally watch the progeny of all our stallions and Gold Standard caught the eye after his performance in the Cape Guineas, where he and the winner William Longsword pulled well clear of the rest of the field.

He is a magnificent specimen. Being by a champion in Trippi and from a strong damline - Elliodor, Dancing Champ and New South Wales are the first three broodmare sires of the female line - he really does tick all of the boxes," said Sommerville.

influence is stamina and classic ability. Trippi Charles Faull has proven that he can produce stamina if had more to he is put to the correct mare, as evidenced say. “We know by his son Trippi’s Storm in the USA.” Charles Faull all about Trippi, “We found Gold Standard a compelling so let’s examine prospect based on 4 factors:the damline. Gold Standard is out 1. His run in the Guineas and in particular the manner in of Olympic Dam, who is by Model which he was closing in the straight; Man out of Olympic Duel, so his 2. His beautiful classic looks and temperament; dam is by a champion, out of a 3. The fact that Glen Kotzen expressed an opinion after the champion. Olympic Duel won 13 Selangor that he feels 1600m is at the bottom end of the races, including the equivalent of horse’s range, predicting that he would prefer 2000m and 8 Gr1’s. She was a Met winner, thinks he could stay 2400m. Glen is also of the opinion placed in the July, and was named that he’s an exceptional racehorse; Champion Filly three times.”

4. Asked for an assessment on the strength of this year’s “Her dam Mashka bred two Guineas field, jockey MJ Byleveld said without any champions – Olympic Duel and hesitation that William Longsword, who just beat Gold Dancing Duel – and was twice Standard, was the best horse he’s ridden.” named Broodmare of the Year. It Faull ended by saying: “To summarise, Gold Standard is is also worth noting that Mashka bred to stay, his trainer thinks highly of him, and he has is inbred 4x4 to the Lord Derby- a tremendously powerful pedigree. The public should be bred mare Aurora via her sons advised not to be fooled into thinking that because he’s by Alycidon and Borealis. Aurora’s Trippi, he’s just a speed horse.”

This Time More Than Any Other Time A review of the week's best SPEEDRATINGS

with Steve Furnish

First In Line Fairview 25th January They raced on the poly track on Wednesday where four of the afternoon’s eight races were run over 1600m.

Quickest home in these was LAWS OF SUCCESSION when registering his seventh career victory in the bill topping MR87 Handicap. Always handy, Yvette Bremner’s charge ran on stoutly in the short home straight and in what proved to be a real thriller, he got the verdict by the narrowest of margins over FLY LIKE THE WIND. Another to cut it fine when finding the winner’s enclosure was GIVE IT AWAY when getting off the mark in the opening maiden event over 1900m. Backed into the red at the track, the best bet on the card for many also raced close to the speed. He put his head in front 400m out and in a race where just 0,35 of a length covered the first four home, he just held on.

Fourth placed VIDA FELLA came from the rear, and was finishing best of all in this race.

At the other end of the scale the easiest victory on the card was recorded by TIME TRIPPER when opening her account in the maiden 1600m. Nicely positioned in fifth as they came off the bend, the daughter of Traffic Guard was ridden to lead shortly after passing the 300m marker and drew clear easily from there onwards to score by four and a quarter.

TITBITS IRISH GREY ran on well from the backend of midfield when getting up in the very last stride to win the maiden plate over 1200m.

LORD WINDERMERE won the novice 1300m with some in hand.

Vaal 26th January The fastest of the three 1000m races on the inside track on Saturday was the MR72 Handicap won by the lightly raced 3yo CATHEDRAL COUNTY. Sent off favourite at 5/2, the son of Trippi was always handy. He ran on strongly over the final 400m and comfortably accounted for the front running STARK (sweating) by a length and a quarter.

The faster of the two 1200m maiden plates was the girls’ affair won by the newcomer GRANDE ROCHE. On leaving the stalls it was the second favourite GRATUITY who elected to make the running and going through the 400m, she was still four lengths clear. The 5/2 favourite quickened nicely at the business end of the race through, and cruised clear to score by three and three quarters after striking the front less than 100m from home.

Quickest home in the two 1700m races was WILD BRIER in the MR65 Handicap.

Exceptionally well weighted on his earlier form, the son of Ideal World raced fourth for most of the journey. He put his head in front at the 200m marker and with a ton in hand won going away by three.

TITBITS Despite being eased late, the 3yo LADY OF THE WORLD won the MR68 Handicap over 1000m going away by two and a quarter.

Consistency Reward Fairview 27th January The non-black type Fairview Merchants topped the bill at Friday’s turf meeting and in what proved to be the fastest of the three 1200m races the 6yo Var gelding NORMANZ gained just reward for his consistency. Taken straight to the front by S’manga Khumalo, Normanz led throughout. He was always around a length and a quarter clear and without any anxious moments, he went on to score by that margin.

They also ran three races over 1400m and stopping the clock in the fastest time here was FREDERICK FOX when registering his fourth career victory in the MR72 Handicap.

Easy to back at 6/1 on the off, Gavin Smith’s poorly drawn charge raced in the backend of midfield early on. He quickened best of all down the long home straight and won going away by a length and three quarters after striking the front 100m from home.

Another to win with authority from the stable of Gavin Smith (3 winners on the card) was EN GEE OH in the novice 1800m. Travelling the distance for the first time, the 3yo son of Philanthropist was soon up handy. He was ridden to lead as they approached the 400m and with his jockey looking around for challenges 100m out, he went on to win quite a bit more easily than the official three quarter length margin would suggest.

TITBITS STRAWBERRY LIPS didn’t find the clearest of passages en-route from the rear when winning the maiden 1400m with some in hand.

57,68 71,14 83,43 95,46

Aptly Named Greyville 27th January As is usually the case they raced on the poly track on Friday evening where the fastest of the three 1200m races was the MR62 Handicap won by the 3yo WAVEBREAKER. Sent off a warm favourite at 5/2, Frank Robinson’s charge was soon at the head of affairs. He quickened well at the top of the short home straight and extended his one length advantage to three and a half before crossing the line.

Quickest home in the three 1900m races was the aptly named ONE MAN SHOW when easily accounting for his nine rivals in the MR70 Handicap. Another to make all, the son of Tiger Ridge adopted almost identical tactics to those used by Wavebreaker and won going away by three.

The two remaining races were both run over 1600m and quickest against the clock in these was INTO THE GROOVE. Freely available at 8/1 on the off, Ivan Moore’s charge sat in midfield during the early part of the race. He was ridden to lead approaching the 200m marker, and clearly unphased by the heavy rain that was falling, he drew clear easily.

TITBITS After being a little slow into stride, SILVER JAY ran on well from midfield when getting off the mark in the opening maiden plate over 1200m.

* Fancied ** Strongly fancied *** Very strongly fancied

Smart Craftsmanship Greyville 28th January Having stolen two races from Kenilworth, there were just six races on the poly track card on Saturday. Three of these were staged over 1000m with the quickest being the MR60 affair won by ICE RUN. Nibbled at on course into 9/1 from 15’s, Tony Rivalland’s charge made all. He kept on determinedly in the straight and won by a half from the always second positioned HALLO MR. A maiden plate over 1400m had gotten proceedings underway and here we saw a very comfortable victory for the well supported even money favourite THE CARPENTER. Not the quickest into stride when the gates opened, Charlie Laird’s charge raced sixth for the first half of the race. He made his move coming off the bend and won going away by two and a half after striking the front 200m from home.

The best bet on the card for Sporting Post was BRAVE KNIGHT in the qualified maiden plate over 1000m and at the generous odds of 5/2, he did the business. Soon up handy, the son of Great Britain was ridden to lead shortly after passing the 300m pole, and after quickly drawing clear he went on to score very cosily by two and three quarters.
