Gr3 G 3 WINTER GUINEAS at Kenilworth this Saturday
F
The R250 000 Highlands, a part of Ridgemont, Gr3 Winter Guineas has been the platform to stardom for many a top 3yo over the years. Saturday’s renewal hosts a typically competitive class on the Kenilworth summer course.
ourteen runners go to post with Candice BassRobinson saddling a quartet of runners in a bid to pull off the double after stable star Marinaresco won the race in 2016. But it is the in-form 2015 Act Of War winning yard of Joey Ramsden who may hold the aces with the top two in the SP race ratings of I Travel Light and the Australian-bred Newlands.
Mayfair Leading owners Mayfair Speculators have three runners in the race – both of the Ramsden pair are theirs – but interestingly, first choice jockey Anton Marcus rides Turbulent Air for the Snaiths. Joey has found a decent sub though in veteran Piere Strydom who rides I Travel Light from the pole draw. The son of Mambo In Seattle has not seen action in 13 weeks since a fair 3,25 length Guineas seventh behind top galloper William Longsword. Earlier on, he took subsequent Selangor Cup winner and Cape Guineas and Met placer Gold Standard all the way to the wire in the Racing Association Stakes at Fairview and has always looked above average. His stablemate Newlands (the mount of Donovan Dillon) returns from a similar rest after his fourth behind Edict Of Nantes in the Cape Derby. This son of High Chaparral has been on the heels of some class acts and were it not for his 12 draw, he would be an automatic danger.
Skywalker A horse drawn wider than Newlands is African Night Sky, a lightly tried son of Dynasty who won his first two starts in decent style. The Justin Snaith-trained African Night Sky was a length behind I Travel Light in the Cape Guineas but has the advantage of a prep run under his belt. This R850 000 purchase is bred to go all the way in this series and gets the services of form heavyweight, Bernard Fayd’herbe. Our Mate Art is the first of the Bass-Robinson attack and he has not fared well with the draw gods. The son of Artie Schiller won well on debut and has clocked up a string of places at feature level in the interim. He ran disappointingly in the Cape Classic and Selangor, but looked keener on his return at the beginning of this month. The Elusive Fort gelding Elevated ran some decent races early on but was rested and given some time to grow into himself after a disappointing effort when last of 9 in the Cape Derby. He failed to show on his return run at the beginning of April but is highly regarded by his connections and gets a chance to register a long overdue second career victory.
Our Mate Art ran a promising race after a rest and has a chout on his earlier form
Superman Anton Marcus travels to the Mother City to ride Turbulent Air, who we must assume is the Mayfair Speculators elect. The Australian bred gelding ran a cracking third after being slow away on his return run behind the progressive Icon King and with a favourable draw has an excellent chance of building on his flashes of promise from earlier. Ollivander has his second outing after an unplaced effort in the Investec Cape Derby. The son of Silvano is likely to be more effective in the second and third leg of this series. Candid is the third of the BassRobinson quartet. His current form does not look up to the standard of winning here. The improving Rinjani ran second behind Gimme The Stars in the East Cape Guineas after casting a shoe in running, and while he looks held by African Night Sky at these weights, may have a back of the quartet chance.
Effective Verdier is a lightly raced son of Var who shed his maiden over the course and distance. He ran a decent third in handicap company last time and will be more effective over the extra. Dual course-and-distance winner Loadshedder has his first try in feature company and looks to be a progressive sort. The son of Gimmethegreenliight has run on well at all of his starts over the mile and may well be much better than his official rating suggests. Harold Crawford’s lightly raced maiden winner Perovskia ran on well
at his second start and should enjoy the step up in distance. This is only his third start and he is an unknown quantity. Recent 1200m maiden winner Best Nut Ever tries a mile for the first time and would need to improve dramatically on his current form to feature here. Greg Ennion’s Mangrove has drawn wides and looks to have a major task off his current rating – and formline - at these weights.
Promising There are plenty of promising 3yo’s in the line-up and with scope for improvement, the odd form turnover is likely. We are suggesting that African Night Sky may be the choice to hold I Travel Light and Our Mate Art – with Marcus’s mount Turbulent Air, the lurker. Elevated and Loadshedder look best of the rest.

The Winter Winner The R1 million Highlands, a part of Ridgemont, Cape Winter Series has been the launching pad of some of the great horses to race in this country. The Triple Crown has only been worn once – by the subsequent multiple champion L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate and Met winner Pocket Power, who scored his famous treble in the winter of 2006. Eleven years later, the names of Horse Of The Year Winter Solstice and July winner Power King stand out as two stars who went to the brink of glory in this arduous test of speed and stamina. In 2012 Variety Club, one of South Africa’s greatest ever milers, and a proven international performer, won the Winter Guineas before departing for the Champions Season in KZN, where he obliterated his contemporaries in the Gr2 KRA Guineas before slamming the best older horses in the country in the Gr1 Rising Sun Gold Challenge. He would go on to international success. The second leg of the series that offers a R250 000 bonus to the winners of all three legs, will be the R250 000 Gr3 Winter Classic which is run over the 1800m of the Kenilworth Winter Course on Sunday 21 May. The series reaches a climax with the 2400m R250 000 Gr3 Winter Derby on Saturday 24 June.

SPORTING POST • FRIDAY 28th - SUNDAY 30th APRIL 2017
Let’s Get Real he Gr1 SA Fillies Sprint winner is a few lengths better at Scottsville and comes off a disappointing Cape Summer Season, where she failed to deliver anything like her best form. She has been rested since her poor run in the Majorca – a race where she probably proved for once and for all that she doesn’t stay the mile. With Anton Marcus in the irons and freshened up, the highest rated and SP top ranked runner in the field must be the horse to beat.
The Race
This Fillies and Mares race is run at weight for age plus penalties for Gr1,2 and 3 victories in the past 18 months. Brett Crawford got his season off to a great start last Sunday in the Scarlet Lady and he saddles Listed Olympic Duel Stakes winner, Chevauchee. The Australian-bred comes off a rest of 16 weeks since a disappointing Paddock Stakes effort and could be in the mix if things go her way. Gr3 Diana Stakes winner Captain’s Flame almost surprised the Cape Fillies Guineas winner Just Sensual in the Prix du Cap at her last start.
The daughter of Captain Al is very courageous and versatile and would be a welcome icebreaking ‘away’ winner for the Nel-Van Niekerk combination.
Life Is Great
Candice Bass-Robinson’s Gr2 Sceptre Stakes winner Live Life is in the form of her life having won three in a row. The 3yo has her first run in KZN but looks a serious speed filly with plenty of potential. She is unlikely to need the run from a fitness perspective and looks to be the main threat to the class mare. The Western Winter filly Frosty Friday has been rested over a year. The Gr2 placed filly won three on the bounce as a 3yo but is better over further. The Gr1 Majorca Stakes winner Nightingale should also find this on the sharp side and is being prepped for bigger dates later in the season. The Dennis Drier trained Chestnuts N Pearls appears to have her problems and has run only once as a 3yo. The course and distance winner has won at 2yo Gr1 level, but has never quite repeated anywhere near that level since. Glen Kotzen’s Var filly Our Destiny has done her fair share of travelling and finished like an express train after being hampered close
GOLD CIRCLE
T
Dean Kannemeyer’s good Trippi mare Real Princess loves the Scottsville track. She bids for the R250 000 Gr3 Poinsettia Stakes double at Scottsville but will have to be somewhere near best to hold the challenge from her talented younger opposition.
The classy Scottsville specialist Real Princess can register the double
home when gaining late for third in the Listed KZN Stakes at this track last time. While she has proven something of an enigma in terms of best distance, she must have a money chance if repeating that last effort over the 200m extra here. Former Cape-based Shane Humby sends out his first KZN feature runner in many a year in the Jay Peg filly, Neala. She looks outclassed and is likely to need the outing after a 13 week break. Miss Varlicious ran below her best in the KZN Stakes after a string of decent placed efforts. The quick mare looks to be at her best over the minimum trip.
No Secret
The 2016 Gr1 Allan Robertson winner The Secret Is Out has failed to visit the winner’s enclosure since that peak of her 2yo season.
BYWORD STANDS AT MAURITZFONTEIN STUD
Her last few runs have been rather below par and trainer Vaughan Marshall tries the blinkers for the first time. Her course and distance record suggests caution for favourite backers – she shouldn’t be discounted. Strategic Move has proved effective over slightly further and may find the pace a touch hot at these weight terms. Stablemate Old Em is the second of the Tarry duo. The daughter of Trippi has not quite come up to scratch at feature level and will need to improve to feature. Vision To Kill is the only 3yo in the race. The fast daughter of Visionaire returned from a short break to run a good fifth in the KZN Stakes behind Jo’s Bond. She tries 1200m for the first time and her 50% win strike-rate suggests she can improve to challenge.

Top Level
Real Princess has earned her stripes at the top level and is course suited. It iis a concern that she may battle to bounce back at her first run post the Cape season. That could open the door for the likes of Live Life and Captain’s Flame. Our Destiny could be the quartet kicker.

Gr3 G 3 GODOLPHIN BARB at Scottsville this Sunday
T
The R2 million Var colt Varallo looks a promising sort in the making. He gets an opportunity to open his stakes account and make it three on the trot when he takes on seven rivals in the R200 000 Gr3 Godolphin Barb at Scottsville on Sunday.
he Varsfontein bred Varallo has won impressively at both his starts at the Pietermaritzburg track and while running green at both of those, he looks to carry too many guns for his opposition here. Anton Marcus rides him again for Charles Laird and this fellow has been a talking horse since ages before his odds-on debut in mid February. He has won readily at 1000m
and 1200m at this track, and will be ready to produce a big effort on Sunday.
Northern Light
The SP top-rated is Gauteng raider, Mujallad. The Mike de Kock grey is a son of Redoute’s Choice and won well at his second outing when beating Whorly Whorly over the Turffontein 1000m by 3,50 lengths. Over 200m further at the Vaal next time, Whorly Whorly turned the tables
with a 5,50 length turnaround. That must raise alarm bells but the beautifully bred colt must be better than that and looks to be Varallo’s’ major threat.
Amends
Sail From Seattle is our leading sire of 2yo winners and his son Autumn In Seattle will be keen to make amends for losing his unbeaten record to Oratorio flyer Arianos Bagofgold last time out. His first two wins were achieved in good style at this track and he must be a massive runner with his pace and master judge Richard Fourie in the irons. Mike Miller’s Argo Magic won his second and third start in good style, but failed to recover from an early bump when beaten 4 lengths by Arianos Bagofgold in a small field
last time. He has the track experience but may battle to beat Varallo. Justin Snaith has made a flying start to his 2017 KZN season and his Choisir colt Sir Frenchie started a red hot odds-on favourite to win his first start here three weeks ago. The Australian bred won 2 of his first 3 starts at home before failing to settle when beaten 1,50 lengths by Sniper Shot last time. Scottsville has been the graveyard of many a good horse and he will need to adjust and put his best foot forward.
Visionary
Garth Puller’s Visionaire gelding Real Vision popped up at 25-1 on debut at this track to beat Reverend by 5,50 lengths in a decent time. He can run into the place money with the expected improvement.
Elegant General was backed from long odds and duly landed the gamble on his polytrack debut. The opposition strength is unknown and he has his first outing on the turf – he is difficult to assess. Vaughan Marshall’s Woljayrine comes in after an unplaced debut three weeks ago at Greyville. The son of Jay Peg drifted right out to 20-1 there and ran green, pulling up blowing – a sign of a horse that should strip fitter on Sunday.
Impeccable
All told, and natural improvement aside, we are going with Varallo to maintain his impeccable record at the expense of Mujallad and Autumn In Seattle. Don’t leave Snaith out of the bigger permutations.
Gr3 STRELITZIA STAKES at Scottsville this Sunday
T
The 2yo filly arena is often a minefield of uncertainty and without a genuine standout in the field, Sunday’s R200 000 Gr3 Strelitzia Stakes looks a trappy race – with upset potential. welve fillies will line up at the 1100m start and with most sparingly raced and a few class out-of-towners in the mix, a categorical selection looks dicey.
Faith
That’s unless one places faith in Joey Ramsden’s Made In Hollywood, who tops the SP ratings. The daughter of Querari caught the attention with a runaway win at her second start. She was fancied to go in next time out but was humbled by Gimmethegreenlight’s good son Dutch Philip – the standout Cape 2yo male at this stage. Made In Hollywood has her first start in KZN and with Anton Marcus up will be looking to atone for that defeat. Frank Robinson saddles one of the local hopes in Antonius Pius daughter, Under The Stars. This good Greyville polytrack debut winner has her first show on
the turf and if matching her poly strides may be worth including to beat the Capetonian. Muis Robert’s maiden Flamboyant gets 2kgs from the winners and may be seen by some as a winner without a penalty after losing her race in the boardroom at Scottsville last Wednesday. She has shown improvement at both her starts and is worth considering.
Kotzen Kids
Kenilworth debut winner Princess Peach was slow off next time when beaten 6 lengths by Call To Account in the Listed Summer Juvenile Stakes. This beautifully bred daughter of Captain Al has been rested since Sun Met day, but is worth keeping an eye on. Second of the Kotzen duo is Kuda Sprint third placed Gold Image, who finished two lengths ahead of susbsequent dual stakes winner
GOLD CIRCLE
Hollywood Or Bust Under The Stars tries the turf for the first time Barrack Street on Met day. The daughter of Horse Chestnut may need this after a 13 week break, but comes into contention on form and reputation.
Debut
Scottsville debut winner Awesomeness faces stronger at her second start. The daughter of Alado caught the eye there as she was slow away and ran green before putting her act together late. The Ivan Moore-trained debut winner Great Aim is another unknown. She won at 66-1 and it is difficult envisaging her following up on that. The daughter of Main Aim did beat Rose Hill, who underlined the form strength when she ran another decent race next time when beaten 2 lengths by Sheza Rockstar. The pacy Sean Tarry entry Lolita Delago has her first run in KZN after running a poor race in the Listed Storm Bird Stakes last time out.
Rain Dance
Neptune’s Rain has run two decent races – winning well on debut and then showing pace before being outrun late next time by Crymeariver. She should not be intimidated by the drop in distance and is worthy of quartet inclusion. Dennis Drier’s Vanity Fair showed pace on debut to stay on for third and then followed up with a smart win next time out.
She looks decent.
Holly’s Vision was backed to 9-10 to score an impressive Greyville polytrack debut win in mid February. The form looks rather weak and she takes a leap in class. Roy’s Mojarra made her debut on the polytrack a week ago. She was unfancied and never showed. She faces a baptism of fire at her first outing on the grass.

Mother Of All Moment
Craig Zackey and Nother Russia ahead of the pack at the finish of the Gr1 Empress Club Stakes
Gr1 Empress Club Stakes Turffontein last Saturday
W
hile eyebrows were raised in some quarters when the R1 million HSH Princess Charlene Of Monaco Gr1 Empress Club Stakes was delayed a week to fit into the royal schedule, the climax of a thrilling sentimental win for South African horseracing’s own ‘royal families’ dominated matters on a big day. With Mike de Kock having saddled the winner’s champion dam Mother Russia in this race in 2010, as well as more recently Europa Point (2012) and Majmu (2015), the champagne flowed on a thrilling afternoon of glorious success for the association with the yellow and black silks that put the champion conditioner on the map. Off her relatively modest 96 rating, the recent spectacular winner of the Gr3 Acacia Handicap looked to have a big ask at level weights facing what was regarded as one of the best fields to line up in this prestigious event in many years. But Nother Russia showed that she is way better than everybody (including the handicapper) thinks and that she has every intention of racing into the golden hoofprints of her star Mum. Racing from a decent draw this time, Craig Zackey had Nother Russia much handier than she was in the Acacia, and placed her six lengths off the action as Heaps Of Fun led Negroamaro and Fort
JC PHOTOS
Mauritzfontein’s Jessica Slack labelled it ‘one of the best moments ever’ with multiple champion trainer Mike de Kock echoing her sentiments, after the Tiger Ridge filly Nother Russia had stormed to her maiden Gr1 success in front of an enthusiastic crowd. Ember for home. Anton Marcus brought Fort Ember into serious contention at the 450m, but the daughter of Elusive Fort, racing in cheek pieces for the first time, came under immediate pressure. Running around, she didn’t appear to be enjoying herself and that’s when Zackey and Nother Russia made their move. The lovely chestnut glided into the lead down the centre, and with many finishing strongly around her, she looked to have a race on her hands. But despite the apparent threats, Nother Russia was just too good on the day and she stormed home mostly unchallenged to beat the gallant Bella Sonata, who had come from stone last and had to play bridesmaid to the De Kock galloper for her second consecutive race, by 1,40 lengths in a time of 96,86 secs. The top two finished well ahead of the third placed Sean Tarry outsider Tahini, who held her fancied flying and very consistent stablemate Safe Harbour out of third position. Tarry also saddled fifth placed finisher, Trophy Wife, who played up at the start. The 7-2 favourite Fort Ember had every chance but faded out to midfield and 5 lengths off the winner. Lone Cape raider Star Express was well placed for a long way, but failed to live
up to trainer Justin Snaith’s dream win with Dancer’s Daughter in 2009. She faded badly late and finished last some 18,75 lengths back. Jockey Craig Zackey is enjoying a dream run and registered another career Gr1 – Dom Zaki’s Arabian Beat was his first in the 2015 SA Nursery. Zackey has never regretted the day he decided to take his chances with the naughty youngster! The young rider said that ‘the penny was now starting to drop’ and suggested that the winner is ‘very good’. Mike de Kock called it a family affair – “From Mother Russia to Mother Mary (Slack) and daughter Jessica buying the filly – to my family being part of the team. What a moment!” He thanked leading Horse Behaviouralist Malan du Toit for ‘weaving his magic’. An elated Jessica Slack was over the moon and confirmed that Nother Russia ‘wasn’t the easiest of fillies’. “I can’t believe it . What a moment! I have so many people to thank – Mike and Matthew de Kock, Craig Zackey, Malan du Toit, Matthew Sham for transporting
the most spoilt filly in the world – my Mum – and Jehan Malherbe for buying her,” she said. Nother Russia was an inspired purchase (albeit without Mum Mary’s knowledge) by Form Bloodstock on behalf of Jessica Slack for R550 000 off the National Yearling Sale. She was bred by Wilgerbosdrift by Tiger Ridge out of the champion Windrush racemare, Mother Russia. The latter, who raced in the Klawervlei silks when originally trained by Joey Ramsden, won 13 of her 27 starts. The champion was bought in training by Mary Slack as a broodmare prospect and transferred to Mike de Kock – whereafter she added 3 further Gr1’s to her sparkling total of 4 Gr1 successes – which included a rare fairer sex score in the prestigious 2011 L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate. Nother Russia with a record of 5 wins / 4 places / 9 starts and stakes of R1 021 625 is entered for the Gr1 Premier’s Champions Challenge on 6 May – where she will bump the champion Legal Eagle. A decision will be made before Wednesday as to whether she runs or not.

Justin Snaith has made a flying start to his 2017 KZN campaign and he was in the winner’s box again when Elusive Silva raised his hand as a possible July contender with an eyecatching victory in the Listed The Sledgehammer. Cape Winter Derby winner Elusive Silva, like Krambambuli who won earlier, is one of 9 Justin Snaith Vodacom Durban July entries and the Phillipi based horseman looks to be reaping the benefits of a patient approach during the tempting Cape Summer. “Elusive Silva tweaked his leg in the very soft going when he won the Derby. So we put him away and his owners were hopeful of a Met run – but then took the longer term view. It could reward them – he is a smart horse,” said Snaith after Anthony Delpech had steered the Silvano gelding to a good win. In his first run in 43 weeks, Elusive Silva turned on the jets late and moved up smoothly as he drew off to beat the seasoned campaigner Helderberg Blue by 1,75 lengths in a time of 110,76 secs. The winner’s stablemate Prince Of Wales – also back from a long rest – showed good enthusiasm late to bank the third cheque. Gauteng challenge Samurai Blade was the disappointment of the race as he finished at the back end after showing no spark. Elusive Silva has won 4 races with 3 places from 10 starts and took his stakes earnings to R380 500.The Nutfield Studbred Elusive Silva was a R375 000 Cape Premier Yearling Sale buy. He is a son of Silvano out of the onetime winning Fort Wood mare, Esprit. It was a good weekend for the winner’s part-owner Etienne Braun, who also owns Friday’s East Cape Oaks victress, Fortissimus. While Snaith was uncharacteristically cautious – saying that many in the field were having return runs – the glint in his eye hinted that Elusive Silva may well be worth a long-term ante-post nibble for 1 July.
The Ideal World filly Louisiana made it a feature clean sweep for the Cape visitors when she opened her stakes account in style with a smooth victory in the Listed The Scarlet Lady. The scratching of the Joey Ramsdentrained Epona threw the race wide open with the Snaith-trained Nima going off a weak favourite. The SMG Cape Town and Vasco sponsored Corne Orffer only had 3 rides on the afternoon but paid for his travel costs with a well executed victory on the progressive Ideal World filly. New Brett Crawford KZN assistant trainer Peter Muscutt has made a great start with the away string and he confirmed that Louisiana had needed her first run three weeks earlier. While fellow Capetonian Variance dictated matters off a modest pace, Orffer pulled Louisiana out at the 650m and bided his time before setting her alight at the 350m. The Jamaica Handicap runner-up quickened readily to skate clear down the outside and win going away by a length in 112,17 secs. (Elusive Silva ran the 1800m a half hour earlier carrying the same weight in 110,76 secs). Gauteng visitor Banking April shaded the lightly raced 3yo Party Crasher (one for the black book!) for third, with favourite Nima possibly being the one Snaith runner on the day to show some ring rustiness as she plodded into fourth. Louisiana has won 4 races with 6 places from 13 starts and stakes of R321 350. After their sensational Gr1 Empress Club Stakes win on Saturday, Louisiana rounded off a big weekend for her breeders and partowners, Mauritzfontein. She is by Ideal World out of the three time sprint winning Silvano filly, Southern Pine. Mauritzfontein offer a half-sister (#188) to Louisiana by Philanthropist on next week’s BSA National Yearling Sale.
Murray On A Roll Callan Murray maintained his run of feature successes when he produced the Mogok filly Fortissimus late in proceedings to win the East Cape Oaks. Murray hasn’t missed a feature win in the Eastern Cape every week in April and he added to his sparkling form when booting home a good double on the afternoon. He rode a well judged race on the Justin Snaith trained Fortissimus, relaxing the Cape raider in midfield as Fantasy Quest and Rainbow Skink showed the way ahead of Another Night. Into the home run, Murray tracked Beataboutthebush before switching between horses down the inside. Greg Cheyne looked to be posing as Beataboutthebush cruised into the lead at the 350m, going very well. Fortissimus taking her time to get going, steadily moved up on the rail and drew off to account for Beataboutthebush by 1,50 lengths in a time of 123,18 secs. Justin Snaith enjoyed a feature double after saddling Silvano gelding Strathdon to win the Derby Plate earlier. Fortissimus is raced by Etienne Braun and the Linington & Sons bred daughter of Mogok was an astute R20 000 buy (by Hill Racing Pty Ltd) at the 2015 BSA National 2yo Sale. She is out of the thrice winning Al Mufti mare Arabian Glamour. The winner’s half-sister by Sail From Seattle sold for R250 000 on the CTS Emperors Palace Select Yearling Sale a few hours after the win. Fortissimus, who ran some decent feature fringes as a 2yo, scored her first stakes success, now with 3 wins, 2 places from 15 starts and R244 450 earnings. She was also received the BSA Added Value Stakes Bonus of R77 500. Fortissimus appears to have improved when stepped up over ground and could yet train on into something decent.
Chase Earns His Stripes An inspired rush of quick thinking initiative halfway down the home straight by jockey Chase Maujean sealed victory for the Geoff Woodruff-trained Silver Stripe in the R150 000 Listed Spook Express Handicap. Maujean is one of the best lightweight riders around and his move to grab a three length advantage as pacemaker Bright Bronte raised the white flag at the 500m, was the match winning genius in the small field. Only eight fillies and mares lined up in the 2450m feature and after his victory with the Australian-bred Wild Ash in 2015, Geoff Woodruff would have fancied his chances again with a powerful pair of course and distance specialist, Silver Stripe and the very capable year older, Zante. Things worked out well with Muzi Yeni stretching the field as Bright Bronte held an eight length lead into the home straight. It was clear the pacemaker was in trouble early and Maujean brought Silver Stripe through runners to challenge. The daughter of Silvano caught her opposition flat-footed as she grabbed a three length lead into the final 400m. Despite a late assault by the consistent Patchit Up Baby, Maujean didn't panic and kept his mount balanced. Silver Stripe stuck gamely to her task and held an advantage of 1,25 lengths at the line to hold the strong finishing Patchit Up Baby in a time of 154,08 secs. Zakirah was reported not striding out, while the pacesetting Bright Bronte faded right out to trail in last of the eight. Bred by Drakenstein Stud, Silver Stripe is a daughter of Silvano out of the Gr1 winning Badger Land mare, Badger’s Gift, who won 8 races from 1200m to 1800m. This was a deserved first stakes success for the 4yo who has won 3 races with 3 places from 10 starts and stakes of R264 250. Woodruff had enjoyed a good day up to that point as he also saddled the Pathfork gelding Starpath who won the R250 000 HSH Princess Charlene of Monaco Maiden Plate.
Feature Double For Snaith Cape Feature Clean Sweep
Staying All Day Smart stayer Krambambuli gave Justin Snaith the first leg of a feature double when he outgunned his six opponents to win the R120 000 Highland Night Cup over 2400m. This non black type event is named in honour of the top-class champion stayer Highland Night, who achieved the rare distinction of a Gold Cup double, winning it in 2002 and 2003. The Gr2 Cape Stayers winner, Krambambuli had not had the benefit of a prep run and this performance first time up over 2400m after a 12 week break was eyecatching. One of the better stayers around, the son of Black Minnaloushe is likely to have the Gold Cup as his main target in Champions Season and Bernard Fayd’herbe, who rode a hat-trick of winners on the day, confirmed that the 5yo gelding had impressed him. Relaxed early as Serissa went up to show the way, Fayd’herbe slipped Krambambuli down the inside rail at the 300m and he stayed on best to beat the gallant Serissa by 2 lengths in a time of 149,76 secs. Sun On Africa was a short head back in third, while Kannemeyer’s classy Cape Speed needed the outing after his Met run and could only manage a modest fourth. Krambambuli has won 6 races with 8 places from 23 starts for stakes of R738 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. Since being stepped up to ground, Krambambuli is showing all the right signs and he will be worth following.

Jessica Slack
With a win in the 2017 HSH Princess Charlene Gr1 Empress Club Stakes, Nother Russia seems to be showing every sign of following in her illustrious dam’s footsteps. other Russia was the diminutive filly with the distinctive white blaze and fearless, never say die attitude that more or less ruled our tracks for 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011. Bred by Veronica Foulkes’ Normandy Stud by Windrush out of the Russian Fox mare, Russian Muse, she was a R160,000 purchase at the 2007 GrandWest Yearling Sale. Initially campaigning for Joey Ramsden’s Goodhope Racing and racing in the interests of Klawervlei Stud, she was purchased by Mary Slack and transferred to Mike de Kock for the latter half of her career. From 27 lifetime starts, she achieved 13 wins and 12 places, including 10 Stakes races and 4 Gr1‘s – the Queens Plate, Majorca Stakes, Paddock Stakes and Empress Club Stakes for lifetime earnings of over R5 million. Mother Russia retired to stud at Mary’s beautiful Wilgerbosdrift near Piketberg and was stood to resident sire Tiger Ridge, but sadly only had one foal before dying prematurely. However, the fact that the filly, Nother Russia, is her only foal only adds lustre to the tale. Jessica Slack, still clearly thrilled with the win, confessed that she had spent Sunday morning going over the photographs and savoring the moment. “She is such a star. It’s so divine. We are all on cloud nine, it’s definitely not sunk in yet,” she enthused warmly.
Purchase
Although it would seem that her destiny has always been written in the stars, Nother Russia actually had quite a tough start in life. Jessica relates,” Just after Mother Russia foaled, she got post foaling biliary. She was taken off to the clinic and her milk dried up. The whole experience affected her ability to mother the foal and so Nother Russia was fostered onto another mare and was actually brought up by somebody else. It was quite a traumatic start for her, but she was a super friendly foal. I think it was because so many people worked with her when she was little. You could cuddle her while she was lying on the ground - luckily she didn’t turn into a spoilt brat!” Jessica purchased Nother Russia as lot 462 on the 2014 National Yearling Sales, for R550k. Asked how she secured her, Jessica explains, “We all loved her. Guy and I were looking at upgrading our broodmare band at the time and had a discussion and decided
she was surely the best bred filly on the sale. I spoke to Mike de Kock and Jehan Malherbe and they were both keen, so we decided we would try and have a go at buying her. I never said a word to Mum,” she laughs. “In all honesty we never believed in a million years that we would be able to afford her and clearly everyone else must have felt the same way, because as far as I know, it was only us and Mrs Sanne who bid on her. She was small and slightly unimposing, but she was not a midget and didn’t have bad legs – I don't know why no-one else was interested, but what a pleasure and how lucky for us! When the hammer went down, Mum went over to Mike and said “I didn’t know you liked her, who did you buy her for?’ and Mike replied, “Your daughter!” It was a classic moment,” she says, warming to her story. “After the sale, we took her back to Mauritzfontein to chill in a paddock with the other fillies. It was just after the sale that Mum came down to Mauritzfontein and got the call that Mother Russia had died. It was just awful that she didn’t have any other foals, but it does make Nother Russia all the more special.”
Challenge
Mike instructed the Mauritzfontein team to give the
filly a bit of extra time to mature. However, when she finally did start training, she proved a bit of a challenge. “The poor thing was scared of the horse box and starting stalls and had all sorts of issues like that. Craig Zackey came in and worked really hard on her in the pens. For her first start, Mathew (de Kock) came to me and said, “Craig’s been working so hard on her, can I put him on?’ I said yes and that’s where that relationship started,” she explains, “but the whole team has just been wonderful. Malan has worked with her and I must also thank Matthew Sham – I think at one stage she had a whole 16 berth box to herself because she wouldn’t load,” she laughs. “In between she came back to the farm for a rest and Gail Page put a lot of work into her. We have some old, unused starting stalls on the farm and every day she practiced going to and from the paddock. Everybody’s been very kind and good, everyone in Mike’s yard has been so wonderful and that’s made it all the more special.” From 9 starts, Nother Russia now has 5 wins to her credit, including the Gr3 Acacia Handicap and last weekend’s Gr1 Empress Club Stakes. She has never come home without a cheque. “The other thing that is so amazing is that Mum has now bred 3 Gr1 winners in the last few months – Nightingale, Orchid Island and Nother Russia – and Nightingale and Nother Russia are from the same crop,” she says proudly.
Smart Call
It would be remiss not to ask after Smart Call and Jessica confirms that her star race mare, now in the care of Sir Michael Stoute, is back on track. “Smart Call is doing really well. Alec has just been over to visit and seems very happy. He says she looks great, her coat looks really good and she’s happy and sound. He watched her have a canter with Queen’s Trust, the filly who won the Breeders’ Cup race that Smart Call was supposed to run in and she did well. Michael Stoute has entered her for the Gr2 Dahlia Stakes on 7 May and also for a Gr2 on 18th May. Of course it does not mean she will run, but he must think she might be ready. She’s definitely good and sound, although I’m saying all this touching
wood, but everything seems good,” she smiles. “Michael Stoute is so nice and seems good especially with the older fillies. It’s lovely to have a horse with him and great that he and Alec get on so well, so we’re really excited.”
National Yearling Sale
Mauritzfontein have a 23 strong draft on offer and stud manager Guy Murdoch highlights their three Var colts in particular. “The colt I’m really hot about is the one out of Queen Of Persia (lot 118). Her daughter Persian Rug jumped a shadow in the Thekwini Stakes and finished 3rd instead of winning. Queen Of Persia is also the dam of the Michael Azzie-trained Isphan, who was 3rd in the SA Nursery. This is the same family as Marinaresco and I think he’s a really special colt.” “We’ve got one very smart Gimmethegreenlight colt (lot 55) and sadly, only two Ideal World colts, although one is a half-brother to Marinaresco. We’ve got a very nice Byword colt (lot 355), out of the full sister to the dam of Smart Call, who I think is a very special horse. Byword has had 4 runners so far and we’ve had 3 seconds from about 7 runs, which is not too bad. He’ll have a winner imminently. We have 5 Ideal World fillies that are very nice,” he continues, “and we’ve got a nice Dynasty colt out of a Horse Chestnut damline (lot 165).” However, what will be foremost in prospective buyers’ minds is that
2017 offers the very last crop of Fort Woods. The grand old man of Mauritzfontein produced a very small crop in his final season at stud of which Mauritzfontein are offering 3 colts. Jess picks out lot 75 for a special mention. “Stolen Paradise, a half brother to Derby winner Cape Speed, is quite literally the last Fort Wood ever born. Fort Wood only had about 20 foals in his last year, so there won't be many around. My favourite in our draft is probably the Fort Wood colt out of Franny (lot 411) - he's a beaut - and there is a colt out of Welwitschia at Wilgerbosdrift (lot 253) that must be one of the best looking yearlings I have ever seen. Fort Wood is A proven sire of sires, so let's just hope that one of these boys can fill some of the void that he has left behind.”
Stallion roster
Asked about their stallions, Guy confirms that the feedback on Byword is good. “Glen Kotzen has two he’s pleased with, the Bass yard has one, Dennis Drier has a nice colt and Joey Ramsden has a colt that looks above average as well, so we’re very happy with what he’s doing.” The Byword incentive offers a bonus cheque to the best Byword stakes winner at the end of their three year old career (applicable only to his first two crops – 2014 and 2015 - and only to horses that have passed through the sales ring). Guy explains that it consists of a R500k bonus of which R300k goes to the owners and R200k to the trainer. “It’s quite a nice incentive, but we’re hoping that by the time it pays out, we won’t need it anymore,” he grins. “Ideal World speaks for himself. In Saturday’s Petra Diamonds Listed Spook Express Handicap, Patchitup Baby was 2nd and Zante 4th, Smart World won at Greyville on Friday, Amazing Strike won at Turffontein on Saturday and Louisiana won the listed Scarlet Lady at Greyville on Sunday, so we’re happy.”

Are the National Horseracing Authority taking their motto of the ‘Power Of One’ a touch too literally? Take the Scottsville first race on 19 April. Gold Circle reported that following a race review called by a Stipendiary Steward, jockey Anton Marcus, the rider of the beaten Valcar, was forced to object as with only 3 Stipendiary Stewards on duty, an objection by 1 of the Stipendiary board would have left only 2 to deliberate the objection when the rule requires 3. Valcar had been hampered by the winner, Flamboyant. After a lengthy deliberation, the objection was upheld. At the last two KZN meetings, there were yet again only 3 Stipes on duty. There were 6 on duty at Turffontein on Saturday, but only 3 at Kenilworth. Is this what they call progress?
There are 13 Gr1 races to be run in the SA Champions Season which officially gets underway with the Independent on Saturday Raceday at the Theatre Of Champions on Sunday, 7 May. The festival runs through to the end of July with about R30-million in feature race stakes on offer for the 54 races, that includes 31 graded events.
T
Arrowfield Stud stallion Snitzel (Redoute’s Choice) is the sire of current July favourite Heavenly Blue. At home, the son of Redoute’s Choice remains on track to break the record for the most 2yo winners sired in a season after Snitzepeg (2 c ex Pegasus Queen by Fusaichi Pegasus) won at Ballarat on Monday. He was Snitzel’s 28th individual 2yo winner so far this season. Snitzel sired 30 2yo winners last season, equalling Without Fear (Baldric), and looks poised to set a new benchmark in 2016/17.
Seeing The Light
Husband-and-wife team Alec and Lezeanne Forbes teamed up to win the second at Greyville on Sunday with the smart looking Gimmethegreenlight filly, Light On Her Toes (2f ex On Her Toes by Western Winter). The dam won 5 races, including the Gr1 Allan Robertson and Gr2 KRA Guineas racing in a partnership of Team Valor and the Singhs. Lezeanne found Light On Her Toes for just R70 000 on the National Yearling Sale and says modestly, ‘I got lucky before the Gimmethegreenlights started firing’. The man with the biggest smile is owner Alesh Naidoo.
Cut......... .......
Cape apprentice Craig Bantam had his claim cut to 2.5kg after he went gun to tape on State Ballet at Kenilworth on Saturday to reach the 20-winner mark.
Avontuur stallion Var was represented by his 9th individual juvenile winner at Kenilworth on Saturday when his son Virtue (2g ex Hunter’s Glen by Complete Warrior) finished well for a smart debut win. Virtue beat his paternal half-brothers Henry Tudor and Forest Prince into second and third respectively to seal the Var trifecta . Forest Prince looks one to watch next time out after he made up lengths inside the final 200m. There are 28 Var progeny on the National Yearling Sale next week.
Winning Form sponsored Muzi Yeni may have felt that April had him fooled after a winner drought in recent weeks. But he turned that around at Flamingo Park on Monday with a double, that included his 100th winner of the season on Elysian Fields.
The Martyn Meade-trained Eminent (3 c ex You'll be Mine by Kingmambo) maintained his unbeaten record when running out an impressive winner of the Gr3 Craven Stakes over a mile at Newmarket on Thursday, in the process providing Frankel (Galileo) with his seventh stakes winner.
Silvano’s daughter Silver Stripe (4f ex Badger’s Gift by Badger Land) became her sire’s 69th stakes winner when scoring in the Listed Spook Express Handicap at Turffontein on Saturday. The Maine Chance based son of Lomitas has been represented by 9 individual stakes winner this season so far. His son Elusive Silva (4g ex Esprit by Fort Wood) signalled his Durban July claims with a good win in the Listed The Sledgehammer at Greyville on Sunday. There are 20 Silvano progeny on the National Yearling Sale next week.
Mauritzfontein – Wilgerbosdrift sponsored Anthony Delpech has been selected as a member of the Rest Of The World Team who will be out to defend their Shergar Cup title at Ascot on Saturday 12 August. Delpech follows in the footsteps of Gavin Lerena, who was part of the winning team last year. Frankie Dettori, Jamie Spencer, Kerrin McEvoy and Emma-Jayne Wilson have been confirmed as team captains for the 2017 Dubai Duty Free Shergar Cup; the world’s premier international jockeys’ competition.
Jockey Wayne Agrella is something of a restless talent who we feel doesn’t ride as many winners as he should. He turned his luck around the past few days though with a good win on Maximizer for Paul Peter at Turffontein on Saturday and then rode a double at Flamingo Park on Monday. Keep an eye on Wayne!

SPORTING POST • FRIDAY 28th - SUNDAY 30th APRIL 2017
I
t’s probably not the best way to start a column, but I confess to being jolly cross. Capital Letters cross. And yes, it is about race 1 at Greyville on Sunday, 23 April 2017. When the FOURTEEN HORSE FIELD (I am emphasizing the number deliberately), were ringing down at the START of race one, jockey Anthony Delpech noticed that thanks to the position of the false rail in relation to the position of the stalls, there was not enough room for all 14 horses that were patiently waiting to be loaded. Well, not if everyone wanted to share the same track, anyway. It subsequently transpired that two horses – Green Street Bloodstock’s Oligarch (trained by Dean Kannemeyer) and Ms V J Borg and Klawervlei Stud’s Freddie Flint (trained by Paul Lafferty) had to be scratched in order to make the field fit the well, field. Racing was delayed and two horses did not get a run at all, thanks to an issue that should never have been allowed to happen. While the chat forums have already been buzzing with descriptions of ‘Gold Circus’ and the like, overall the sentiment seems to be one of disbelief and deep disappointment. It’s pretty hard not to disagree. BUT THIS IS NOT FUNNY. This is our KZN Champions Season. I feel a bit silly saying all this as it feels like I have said it all a hundred times before. However, the fact that we are having this conversation again, proves that at a fairly serious level we still don’t get it. Somehow we manage to focus all our time and energy on all sorts of peripheral issues. In fact, almost anything other than where it counts – our horses.
Who is responsible? It is my understanding that the local racing executive is in charge of overseeing the general track and course set-up on a race day and the official stipes report lists Arvin Maharaj as the Gold Circle Duty Officer for Sunday. The track managers would have had some input with regard to the configuration of the false rail and we know that the Greyville track managers are Ralph Smout and Kurt Grunewald. But before we start stockpiling our rotten tomatoes, it’s also worth bearing in mind that the NHA also has a role to play and is also tasked with being a ‘back-up’ and checking that things are as they should be before racing can commence. The Stipendiary Stewards on duty were Mr Sean Parker as Chief Stipe, Mr
D M Anderson as Senior Stipe and Mr R Jeewanlall. So we have s o m e h o w managed to sneak a potential disaster past a number of supposed checks and one has to wonder quite how it was possible. I’m not sure how to do this in writing, but I want to take someone – in a position of authority – and shake them by the shoulders until their teeth rattle. How on earth does someone not do some basic maths to allow enough space for the carded runners as well as the false rail? And how does no-one notice this omission until the field is practically ready to load? What if a jockey had not noticed the problem until after the lever had been pulled – what might have happened then?
The bigger picture Before Gold Circle think I am picking only on them, this is a far broader problem. As with so much else in racing, we appear to be missing the point. Which is that we are not care-taking our core business – our horses (apologies for the repetition, but that point does not seem to have hit home, so I may repeat it a few times). I am sorry to be boring about this, but we have had ‘shocking’ starting stalls, stall gates that don’t open, stall gates that partially open, complaints about the running surface, complaints about the pull up, mystery devices that appear and disappear in saddle cloths, rules that get made (and ignored) depending on expediency, rather than the rather obvious reason that they are rules and probably implemented for a reason and therefore need to be obeyed. By everyone. And now we have an issue with the false rail. Given the recent similar incident up at the Vaal, it seems these things are catchy.
Made, not born The first question that pops to mind is how anyone with an ounce of horse sense could have allowed this to happen. That question leads to the rather depressing answer that we have reached a point where most of our staff are not horse people anymore. This will not be a popular thing to say, but it is easy to fall in love with horses and buy yourself a racehorse. That does not make you a horseman. Only time and a lot of blood, sweat and tears creates horsemen. Not to get too

‘Velveteen Rabbit’ on you, being a incident, which makes it all the more horseman isn’t how you are made, puzzling that a mere few weeks it is something that you evolve into, later we are seeing a very similar gradually and over a long period of set of problems. We seem to be time. It’s not something you pick up in danger of getting to the point of having to write a race day check list. in an afternoon. These days racing is run, by and No 1: a serviceable track (all the large, by business people. This is way round), functional starting fine, as long as they stick to the stalls, the false rail correctly placed, business side of things. It’s when other rails correctly placed… Folks. These are not ‘nice to they start compromising the grass roots functions that things begin to have’ items. These are things we unravel. We have administrators need to have in order to conduct a and track managers and bean race meeting safely, along with other counters, rather than ex jockeys, ex boring items such as vets, first aid trainers and folks who know the feel staff, ambulances, handlers at the of leather in their hands and whose start, etc. bodies carry I understand Somehow we manage reminders of that we are all what happens to focus all our time and human and that when the basics do get energy on almost anything mistakes are not adhered made, but you to. We need other than where it counts – cannot overlook to know these basics like these our horses. things. And if we when there are can’t, then we need to hire the right lives and large volumes of betting people to tell us – and we need to revenue at stake. listen to them. The NHA launched an investigation We change rules at the drop of a into the Vaal incident. I’m not sure hat (sectional timing - yay!), we move we’ve heard any result (nevermind dates of races at the drop of a hat an apology from the Operator), so (‘it’s good for racing!’), we adjust it’s difficult to predict what might the distances of races, we throw our happen here. But the question stakes out of whack, we organise needs to be asked, how were either huge parties and loud bands and of the race meetings allowed to all manner of celebrities, impressive start? Better yet, what safeguards installations and side shows on our will be put in place to make sure big days. Why? To suit us. Anyone incidents like these will not be spot the small flaw in the logic here? repeated? The elephant in the room is the 500kg animal that we all depend on.

If the horse has product, then is it any wonder that a high opinion of the rider, he will things go wrong? let himself be guided, if not, he will People, and by people I mean resist.” Well, it seems not only is customers, are not stupid. They can the horse resisting, we seem in smell insincerity and incompetence imminent danger of losing our grip a mile away. If we give them a sub on it altogether. standard product and substandard As we have unfortunately seen service, they are not going to come just last week, our training tracks back. At this stage we are not even are not great in terms of security. servicing our industry stake holders We still don’t have a full-time Stipe at the most basic level, let alone the in Kimberley. Former jockeys, who lofty aspiration of serving customers retired on a a disability payout, or (shock horror) shooting for the are being allowed to ride again, stars and trying to attract new ones. jeopardising the existing and future cover for other riders. As no one Deja Vu else wants to tackle that one head I covered much of the same on, I’ll do it. Sorry guys, I’m sure material when discussing the Vaal you are both lovely blokes, but it’s
making things rather difficult for everyone else. We still don’t have a proper system in place to manage and work with our grooms – and somehow see fit to punish trainers who do their best to follow the letter of the law in dealing with their staff. The every day, bare necessities of getting the job done so that we can put on the show are slowly coming apart at the seams. Racing execs can fly all over the country and the world at the drop of a hat, we have time and energy for ill-conceived marketing campaigns, whopping executive salaries, random stakes hikes, eye-popping amounts spent on websites and now there is news of big development plans for Kenilworth. But there is not enough money to secure our training facilities, establish a decent Thoroughbred aftercare programme, or adequately staff the NHA. With the horses stolen in Philippi, it took the NHA three days to take action and while an enquiry is all good and well and will hopefully produce something worthwhile, not to put too fine a point in it, it didn’t help the horse which had been dead and buried for two days by then. The fact that I know the industry is under pressure makes me feel wretched for saying this, but folks, it’s just not good enough. It’s not good enough for our horses (the thing this whole system hinges on) and it’s not good for the rest of us, either. I will no doubt be accused of being negative, but as we have heard clearly from both our Operators lately, our turnover and revenue are in decline. We have just seen the latest set of results from Phumelela who seem to be flying (and good for them), while bemoaning the fact that racing revenue continues to slide. We need customer trust and confidence more than ever. That means getting the basics right. And getting the basics right requires getting the right people in to do the job (and letting them get on with it). Perhaps if we kept our eye on the ball and made the horse our priority – as it should be – then there would not be the need to waste valuable time and energy spinning stories. Perhaps once we have exhausted all the other options, we will do the right thing.

Gadsby - Trainers Greyville Start Issue To Engage With NHA ‘Our Fault’ Says Hawkins
T
Marketing Executive Graeme Hawkins has conceded that Gold Circle had no excuses for the circumstances that led to jockeys lodging a protest on safety grounds just as the runners were being loaded for the first race at Greyville on Sunday.
he first race at the city venue was delayed over a half hour past the scheduled off-time after Anthony Delpech and his colleagues were seen pointing out concerns in front of the stalls to starting officials. Hawkins, who was quick to respond to the Sporting Post’s enquiries, explained that the width of the track after installing the 6m false rail did not allow for 14 runners to be safely despatched from the 1200m starting stalls. “The jockeys justifiably lodged a protest in this regard. Our local operators’ conditions make allowance for the field to be reduced in circumstances such as these. The process took much longer than it should have, as we undertook a round-robin amongst the trainers for ‘volunteers’ and after much deliberation Dean Kannemeyer and Paul Lafferty came to the party and withdrew their runners,” he said.
Jooste – Just One Of The Oaks
Leading South African owner Markus Jooste is slowly spreading his wings internationally with horses racing in Australia, Europe, England and Ireland. 54 horses were entered for the Gr1 Investec Oaks, the premier English fillies’ Classic and highlight of Ladies’ Day at Epsom Downs on Friday, June 2, day one of the Investec Derby Festival, with Jooste having connections with four of the Oaks hopefuls. He has three in conjunction with the Markus Jooste world’s leading ownership partnership according to the TGR rankings, Magnier, Tabor and Smith and one in his own right. Key To My Heart, Longing and Pocketfullofdreams are owned in partnership with Sue Magnier, Michael Tabor and Derrick Smith and trained in Ireland by Aiden O’Brien. The Sky Is Blazing races in the familiar Jooste silks and is trained in England by William Haggas. Ireland’s champion trainer O’Brien has won the latest two renewals of the Oaks, with Minding (2016) and Qualify (2015), and been successful six times in all. He has the most entries (12) of any handler in 2017. – Racenews@racenewsonline.com
“We have had an internal inquiry with the Track Managers to ensure that this embarrassing situation does not arise again – like I said, we are making no excuses,” added the vastly experienced racing executive. Senior jockey Bernard Fayd’herbe apologised ‘on behalf of all the jockeys’, after riding a hat-trick later in the day. “This was embarassing. We hope that whoever is responsible gets a good smashing on the knuckles for it,” quipped the Cape based heavyweight. The Stipes Report was brief in its reference to the race: There was a delay to the start of the 1st Race as a result of safety concerns regarding the 14 horse field and the inside/false rail being positioned at 6 metres. Discussions between Gold Circle, riders, trainers and the Stipendiary Board took place and it was agreed that the field size had to be reduced. Horses FREDDIE FLINT (*A Arries) and OLIGARCH (B Fayd’herbe) were withdrawn.
The National Trainers Association will be engaging with the National Horseracing Authority following the fining of a KZN trainer after a Groom in his employ kicked a horse at Greyville during a night racemeeting. Association Spokesman Tony Rivalland said that the body was ‘flabbergasted’ by the charge and penalty meted out to trainer Paul Gadsby and that they would be meeting with the National Horseracing Authority to discuss the implications of trainers’ ‘vicarious liability’, amongst other issues. Rivalland said that he believed the matter could be resolved through constructive dialogue. Rivalland’s statement followed the National Horseracing Authority’s confirmation that at an Inquiry held in Durban on 18 April 2017, Trainer P M Gadsby was charged with a contravention of National Horseracing Authority Rule 10.5.1. This arose in that as the trainer responsible for the horse Patroclus when it was scheduled to run on 13 January 2017 at Greyville Racecourse, whilst standing in the wash bay area, it was allegedly kicked in the belly area by the groom, Mr Aviwe Makosana, in the employ of Mr Gadsby. Mr Gadsby pleaded not guilty to the charge but was found guilty of the charge. After taking into consideration the mitigating factors
raised by Mr Gadsby as well as the fact that images of the incident in question were published in the public domain, Mr Gadsby was fined the sum of R40 000, R20 000 of which is suspended for a period of 12 months provided that Mr Gadsby is not found guilty of Rule 10.5.1 or a similar offence involving the abuse and/or ill-treatment of any horse, during that period. Mr Gadsby has the right of appeal against both the finding and the penalty imposed.
Gr1 Audemars Piguet QEII Cup
Go Big On Japan With Mike de Kock having scratched Mubtaahij from Sunday’s HK$ 20 million Gr1 Audemars Piguet QEII Cup at Sha Tin in Hong Kong, local punters may want to consider Japanese hope, Neorealism. Mubtaahij was diagnosed with carpal canal syndrome last week and De Kock decided against the risk of travelling the Dubai World Cup fourth placer.
Looks Ready
In the absence of a horse that would have been a natural sentimental pick, we are siding with Joao ‘Magic’ Moreira’s ride, the Japanese hope Neorealism, who rounded out last year with two efforts at a mile, both under Ryan Moore. A fine third in the Gr1 Mile Championship at Kyoto and a fair ninth in the Gr1 Hong Kong Mile at Sha Tin both suggested that the 1600m was on the sharp side, but the experience of the latter could prove vital to success on this return visit. We believe Neorealism has a strong claim in this year's race. The six-year-old chestnut is a classic Japanese late-developer that is expected to peak this term. The Neo Universe entire impressed first-up this year with victory in the Gr2 Nakayama Kinen (1800m), but it is last year's Gr2 Sapporo Kinen (2000m) win under Christophe Lemaire that catches the eye. Against Neorealism will be classicplaced Dicton from France, Australian
Gr1 winner The United States and a select home team that features last year's runaway winner Werther, as well as two other past APQEII Cup victors, Blazing Speed (2015) and Designs On Rome (2014).
Magic Man
But Moreira will be the hungriest jockey in the race. With wins in each of Hong Kong's December international races and Champions Mile scores with Maurice (2016) and Able Friend (2015), the APQEII Cup is the only one of Hong Kong's six most senior Group 1 races that has so far eluded him. Last year he sided with Japan's Lovely Day, but the favourite was all-at-sea on the rain-softened turf as Werther sluiced clear. "I've never won the race so it would be nice if I could," he says, but he is not dwelling too much on his QEII blank. "I do look at these races but I don't put pressure on myself to win those races I haven't won. If it's meant to be, then it will be. No one has everything they want!" "I'm psyching myself up on that race where he beat Maurice, in the Sapporo Kinen," Moreira says. "If Maurice was in this race, he would be a hot favourite! So, if he can bring that sort of form
to this race, I think he has to be a winning chance."
Thursday – On The Mark!
Jewel
The Audemars Piguet QEII Cup is the jewel among Hong Kong's three spring features, with a purse of HK$20 million. The first Queen Elizabeth Cup was run on the Happy Valley sand track over 1575m in 1975 and had many different guises and forms until it was opened up to international competition as a 2200m turf contest at Sha Tin in 1995. In 1997, it switched to the 2000m distance familiar today. The race was taken by international visitors those first three years through Red Bishop (1995), Overbury (1996) and London News (1997), until the locals struck back with Oriental Express in 1998. Over the last two decades, it has been fairly evenly matched between locals and visitors, with 11 Hong Kong wins to nine for the raiders. Recently, it has been a stepping stone to Horse of the Year glory, with four of the last five local winners of the race taking Hong Kong racing’s top honour that season – Ambitious Dragon (2011), Military Attack (2013), Designs On Rome (2014) and Werther (2016).
Varsfontein Stud bred Silver Thursday, purchased for R1.3 million by Form Bloodstock at the 2016 National Yearling Sale, was an impressive winner for Mike de Kock first time out at the Vaal last Thursday. Silver Thursday is owned by Jessica Slack’s Mauritzfontein Stud, Andreas Jacobs’ Maine Chance Farms and Coolmore’s Mrs John Magnier –and her connections are expected to once again be in attendance at next week’s BSA National Yearling Sale. A daughter of current leading sire Silvano, Silver Thursday, the first winner for Captain Al’s Listed Syringa Handicap winner Secret Obsession, has a Dynasty half-brother (# 161) on offer at the 2017 National Yearling Sale.

A Cross Legacy The Danzig male line continues to flourish all over. The likes of Redoute’s Choice (Danehill), Snitzel (Redoute’s Choice), Zoffany (Dansili), Dansili (Danehill), Exceed And Excel (Danehill), Oasis Dream (Green Desert), Sea The Stars (Cape Cross), Fastnet Rock (Danehill), and War Front are just some of the Danzig line descendants active at stud. Recently two major members of this male line died, with Danehill Dancer’s demise followed last week by that of Cape Cross. cAPE cRoss, a full brother to local sA sire Great Britain, was a top class racehorse. He was by Green Desert, a July cup winning son of Danzig, whose other notable sire sons include invincible spirit and oasis Dream, and new Zealand’s multiple champion sire Volksraad. Green Desert was also maternal broodmare sire of top class sA sire Kahal. cape cross was out of a mare by
Ahonoora (Lorenzaccio), and from a long line of top class stallions descended from the champion race mare Pretty Polly. cape cross, who achieved his only Gr1 win when scoring a 20/1 upset in the 1998 Lockinge stakes, was retired to stud with the reputation of being a solid high class performer, but not a champion. He made his mark, though,
leaving a total of 108 stakes winners, including 13 G1 winners, who won at the top level in both the northern and southern Hemispheres. His daughter ouija Board landed the oaks in 2004, and sons sea the stars and Golden Horn won the Epsom Derby 2009 and 2015 respectively. Another daughter, Rising cross, ran second in the 2006 oaks at the long odds of 33-1. Between them, ouija Board, sea the stars and Golden Horn won a staggering 17 Gr1 races and all were official champions. All three were named Horse of the Year at least once, and both sea the stars and ouija Board (Golden Horn is yet to be represented by a runner) have already tasted Epsom classic success through their progeny. sea the stars, a six time Gr1 winner whose wins included the 2000 Guineas, Eclipse stakes and Prix de l’Arc de triomphe, has an Epsom Derby winner with Harzand. He also sired oaks winner tagrooda. ouija Board joined an elite group of Epsom oaks winning mares to
have produced an English Derby winner when her son Australia (Galileo) lifted the 2014 investec Derby. Australia was rated as the joint third best racehorse in the world in 2014, and is currently a young sire at coolmore. He is not the only notable performer produced by a daughter of cape cross. others include Gr1 cheveley Park stakes winner serious Attitude (Mtoto), four time group winner Western Hymn (High chaparral), Gr1 winner consensus (Postponed), multiple group winner Beautiful Romance (new Approach), and Gr1 winner shuka (Bachelor Duke). to date, cape cross mares have
The GrouP’s overall interim revenue grew 4% to r819m and aftertax profit 5% to r68m in the six months to end-January from the year-earlier period. Phumelela maintained its interim dividend at 34c. Its international arm grew revenue 37% to r174m — which would have been even better if not for 3 the strong rand during the reporting period. The rand averaged r17.54/£ during the six months to end-January versus r21.54/£ in the comparative period, a 19% gain. This resulted in a r2.5m foreign exchange loss, the company said in its results statement. Pretax profit from its international division grew 7% to r39m. The net loss from its traditional south African horse racing business widened to r22.74m from r6.87m in the matching period. revenue declined 2% to r645m.
Part of the reason for the widening loss was an increase in prize money paid out. “Local prize monies increased in line with the formula set out in the stakes agreement with the racing Association,” Phumelela said. But despite these losses, sA’s largest turf owner and data supplier does not intend to stop betting on horses. “horse racing is at the heart of what Phumelela is and the foundation for our successful and expanding international operations,” Ceo riaan du Plessis said in the results statement. “A highlight of horse racing in the period was the first-ever sun Met at Kenilworth, sponsored by sun International as the title sponsor and cosponsored by Gh Mumm. This prestigious race day carried record prize money with each race running an excellent field of horses,” Du Plessis said. “events such as the sun Met underscores the fact that horse racing holds appeal both as on-course entertainment for the family and for those viewing and betting locally and, increasingly, overseas.” originally reported on www.businesslive.co.za

While cape cross will best be remembered as an influence on the Epsom classics, his progeny did win other major races like the irish 2000 Guineas, Grand Prix de Paris, Hong Kong Mile and the Arc de triomphe. With sea the stars, Golden Horn, irish 2000 Guineas winner Awtaad and Australia all active at stud, the cape cross legacy looks set to continue.

A phone-bid of R3.8 million proved the show-stopper for the third-last lot of the Emperors Palace Select Sale, a yearling full brother to multiple Gr1 winner and sire Jackson. The Dynasty colt is from the US female line of champion sire Smart Strike, among other champions. Consigned by Highlands, he was secured by Jehan Malherbe of Form Bloodstock.

Fillies stole the limelight, with six of the nine lots which fetched a million or more. Second top-lot overall at the sale was a R2.6 million Captain Al filly, full sister to a stakes placed winner out of a Giant’s Causeway mare from an Australian black-type family. She was bought on behalf of Chris van Niekerk, the consignor Klawervlei Stud, which provided six of the million-club lots. Three of those were purchased on behalf of MV Magnier, all out of imported dams. They included a Kitten’s Joy filly, and a colt out of a Storm Cat mare. Mayfair Speculators was a notable absentee among the million-plus dreamers, but still turned out to be the leading buyer, securing fifteen lots totalling some R7 million.
Greys Inn
Compared to last year’s Select Sale, when 13 lots made a million with a top of R3.2 Million (twice), the overall median was down to R175k from R225k (and R300k the year before that). The colts median dropped to R200k (from R275k), the fillies median to R150k (from R200k). The Select Sale remains in the top-three in the country when measured by median. the price of the yearling compared to the average price of a yearling of the same sex at the same sale - 1.00 means the price is exactly average sire/horse dam

Branding In The Spotlight The National Horseracing Authority and the racing operators have tightened up on jockeys compliance with the wearing and display of sponsor branding. A leading jockey told the Sporting Post that ‘nothing had changed’ but he added that certain riders had apparently failed to comply with NHA rules 19.8 and 21.6. In a general notice to riders published by the NHA on 23 March, all jockeys and apprentices were instructed to furnish the Stipes with written approval from the racing operators stating that they were permitted to carry advertising material on their clothing or equipment during racemeetings. The directive gave 13 April 2017 as a deadline for compliance. The Racing Operator conditions relevant to this aspect are carried under Rule 18 – Copyright and Intellectual Property. NHA Racing Control Executive Arnold Hyde confirmed that the exercise had been a ‘getting the house in order’ process. “The issue tends to come to the fore on the big racedays and the rules are very clear. Most of the jockeys have complied with the request to regularise the matter,” said Hyde

A review of the week's best SPEEDRATINGS
Speedy Normanz
Fresh As Daisies
Fairview 21st April There was a 21km/h tailwind in Port Elizabeth on Friday and as a result the course was running fast. The only race over 1000m was the non-black type Flying Five and in a very good time victory went to the ultra-consistent NORMANZ. The runner up when SCANDAL broke the course record over this distance back in December, Tara Laing’s charge flew out when the gates opened and was very quickly two lengths clear. He kept up a strong gallop throughout and although the marginally more fancied CAPTAIN ALFREDO was gaining at the finish, he still had a length and three quarters to spare at the wire. The listed East Cape Oaks topped the bill and in what proved to be the fastest of the afternoon’s three 2000m races victory went to the uneasy FORTISSIMUS. Allowed to ease out to 8/1 from 5/1 at the track, Justin Snaith’s charge was always in touch with the leaders. She was ridden to lead as they approached the 100m marker and comfortably accounted for the locally trained favourite BEATABOUTTHEBUSH by a length and a half. They also ran three races over 1200m and quickest against the clock in these was EASY STREET in the pinnacle stakes. On leaving the stalls it was STAR BURST GALAXY who elected to make the running whilst the aptly named Easy Street was content to sit in midfield. She put her head in front going through the 300m and although the pacemaker kept on strongly to maintain second position, she went on to score very comfortably Horses worth following at their next few starts... by two. BELLA SONATA (G Van Zyl, Gauteng) TITBITS ELUSIVE SILVA (J Snaith, KZN)

Greyville 23rd April Three maiden juvenile plates over 1200m got proceedings underway on Sunday afternoon and in the fastest of these the favourite LIGHT ON HER TOES did the business. Nicely positioned in second coming off the bend, the daughter of Gimmethegreenlight took up the running 200m out, and kept on strongly below the distance to fend off a determined challenge from ZARNITSA by three quarters. Two listed events over 1800m topped the bill and in by far the fastest of these, The Sledgehammer, victory went to the Justin Snaith trained ELUSIVE SILVA. Racing for the first time since winning over 2400m in soft going at Kenilworth last June, the son of Silvano was always in touch with the leaders. He ran on strongly in the short home straight and won with plenty in hand by a length and three quarters. Although never any kind of a threat, Elusive Silva’s stable companion PRINCE OF WALES (off the track since December) ran on from the back to fill third position, beaten two lengths. Trainer Justin Snaith was also on the mark in the non-black type Highland Night Cup over 2400m when the 5yo KRAMBAMBULI landed the spoils. Initially priced up as favourite (16/10 out to 26/10), the Black Minnaloushe gelding, in a slowly run race, was always handy. He put his head in front 180m or so from home and won well from the regular place getter SERISSA (set the pace) by two. TITBITS After racing in midfield, KINGS CUP won the maiden plate over 1600m going away by three.
First Of Seven? Turffontein 22nd April
The Gr1 Empress Club Stakes topped the bill on the old stand side track on Saturday and in what proved to be the fastest of the seven races around the turn comparatively, the progressive NOTHER RUSSIA gained her fifth victory from just nine starts. Sent off third in the betting market at 6/1, the daughter of the very talented Mother Russia (won 7 Gr1 races) was always handy. She put her head in front going through the 300m and comfortably accounted for the running on BELLA SONATA by 1,4 lengths. The runner up had raced at the back and still five and a half lengths behind the winner at the 400m pole, she ran on stoutly. The supporting act was the listed Spook Express Handicap over 2450m and in what proved to be a very false paced affair, victory here went to the well-supported SILVER STRIPE. Backed into favouritism on course (9/2 into 5/2), Geoff Woodruff’s charge, in a very strung out field, raced sixth of the nine.
She ran on best of all when the field began to concertina in the home straight and went on to beat the strongly fancied PATCHIT UP BABY fair and square by a length and a quarter. Four of the afternoon’s ten races were staged over 1400m and stopping the clock in the fastest time amongst these was AMAZING STRIKE when registering his sixth career victory in the MR95 Handicap. Freely available at 14/1 on the off, Alec Laird’s charge raced fifth some nine lengths off the pace for most of the journey. He struck the front passing the 200m pole and kept on strongly in the closing stages of the race to beat the running on CORAL FEVER by a length and a quarter. The runner up had raced third last and was very steadily gaining at the finish.
