PE challenger Classify steps into the big league on Saturday

Gr3 SPRING SPREE STAKES at Turffontein this Saturday

Dorrie’s Diamond Can Dazzle

T

The Sham yard has been in sparkling form down in the Eastern Cape and they travel their bargain buy Classify to Gauteng for Saturday’s R250 000 Gr3 Spring Spree Stakes. The son of Sail From Seattle has the R750 000 Grand Heritage later this month as his main target.

he Ascot Stud bred 6yo Classify, who hails from the family of international Gr1 winners Irridescence and Perfect Promise, was originally bought by Mike Azzie off the 2013 National 2yo Sale for R400 000 – and was subsequently acquired by Dorrie and partners for R5 000.

He has won 5 of 9 starts in the Eastern Cape and based on his performances and the opinions of three different top-class jockeys that he could hold his own in Gauteng, the Sham team will travel the long road. They own New Turf Carriers so transport costs probably didn’t really come into consideration.

“In terms of the Grand Heritage qualifying criteria Classify must have had at least one run from first entry up to final supplementary entries on 18 September. So based on some expert advice on acclimatisation from Mike and Matt de Kock, we thought we would take our chances in the Spring Spree. So it’s either stay for the Grand Heritage or home James on Monday,” she laughed.

Dorrie conceded that the Turffontein Inside Track 1200m was a touch tight for the big gelding, who takes his time to get going.

“They should be too quick for him, but Marco (Van Rensburg) knows him well and he deserves a chance to show us how good he is,” she said.

Champagne Gary Alexander sent out 2016 winner Kangaroo Jack and he teams up with Mark Khan with 63kg topweight Champagne Haze. Pierre Jourdan’s talented half-brother ran on well in the Mercury Sprint for a 2,40 length fifth last time and as a classy course-and-distance winner warrants serious respect - if overcoming his wide draw.

The 7yo Captain Aldo is another drawn wide but is overdue an eighth win after running four seconds at his last five starts.

Finchatton looks held by Pure Blonde on his last start.

A Team The Azzmen conditioned Will Pays has been allotted top weight of 64.5kgs for the Grand Heritage and will also be looking to run his usual game race here. He has drawn against the rail and could get closer to Pure Blonde (drawn 15),who he meets on a kilo better terms for a 0,70 length beating last time.

The Alec Laird trained Pure Blonde

is in prime form and goes for three in a row. He is also a kilo worse off with Captain Aldo on their last meeting and will need every ounce of Weichong Marwing’s brilliance in the saddle to overcome the wide draw.

Course and distance winner Amazing Strike comes in fresh off a six week break and Francois Herholdt returns from a successful Saudi stint to ride him. He never runs a bad race and there is little to separate him and Will Pays.

Improver Piere Strydom has been effective for the Azzies but Angel’s Power needs to find his best to challenge here.

Spring Steel is the third of the Azzie trio and must have a shout on his best form with a handy galloping weight of 52,5kgs.

Brett Warren’s Sporting Monarch is an improving sort and could reverse the placings with Pure Blonde with the benefit of his 3,5kg swing for a 2,70 length beating last time.

Romi’s Boy is the third of the Alec Laird trio. His form is consistent but he comes off a 12 week break and may need it.

Paul Peter’s Maximiser comes in off his impressive Listed Darley Arabian win on the polytrack on Gold Cup weekend and may find this on the short side. The son of Querari is very highly thought of and worth inclusion in quartets.

Deep End This race looks likely to be decided in the first 300m, with a good measure of the class drawn wide.

Dorrie Sham throws Classify into the deep end and the race will be on late, with the likes of Champagne Haze and Captain Aldo set to challenge Pure Blonde and Will Pays. Maximiser is no slouch either. Go wide.

Gr3 Spring Spree Stakes PAST WINNER 2016

1 Kangaroo Jack 2 Angel's Power 3 Moofeed

61.0 ( 7) 1/1 53.5 ( 8) 14/1 58.0 ( 4) 14/1

On The Surface…

The Gr3 Spring Spree Stakes has a short history – the reason our past winners honour roll on this page only reflects the inaugural running in 2016. It was won last year by Kangaroo Jack, a smart son of Querari trained by Gary Alexander.

The Spring Spree stakes was previously known as the Gr3 August Stakes, an event run annually over 1200m on the Vaal Sand - which closed for business in October 2015, ending fourteen eventful, even turbulent, years. An expert judge, champion jockey Piere Strydom once said he could not imagine there was a worse track on earth than the Vaal sand.

Requiring masses of water, and with the top layer being replaced some years ago, it was hardly surprising that the track was generally thought to be unsustainable commercially and environmentally into the future.

Whoever was to blame, in the end, the Vaal sand simply failed to satisfy the need for an alternative racing surface to turf on the Highveld during winter – which was the very reason for its introduction in the first instance. Turf is the best racing surface in the summer but during the Highveld winter grass tracks become hard and divot repairs cause inconsistencies.

But there are now issues with the Vaal turf, too. Seven meetings scheduled for the Vaal in September have been switched to Turffontein. Has the plan failed and is the installation of a polytrack at Turffontein now inevitable?

Phumelela went on record saying that the replacement of the sand with a turf surface is ‘strategically the first step towards the installation of a synthetic racing surface in Johannesburg’.

“An enormous amount of energy, money and time has gone into the Vaal sand track down the years, but the complaints are endless and it’s unlikely that all stakeholders will ever be satisfied,” said former Phumelela Horseracing Executive Patrick Davis on the announcement of the Vaal sand closure.

So where to next?

Louis Mxothwa steers Harvard Crimson to a smooth win in the Fairview feature

LISTED JOCKEY CLUB STAKES Fairview last Friday

W

Justin Snaith repeated his exacta feat of 2016 in the R150 000 Listed Jockey Club Stakes at Fairview on Friday. The former SA champion saddled the first, second – and fourth for good measure – to finish in the fillies and mares 2000m contest.

ith Fairview scheduled for a spring treatment, punters savoured the Eastern Cape’s last turf race-meeting until the end of October, when the grass hosts a FridaySunday double header. The ‘PE July’, the Gr3 Algoa Cup, is the big attraction.

But that’s light years away in punting terms and it was a day of

fair results – and very pleasing to see the young Louis Mxothwa register a double – after his treble of the previous Friday.

The Snaiths know a good thing when they see it, and had to dig deep to find four top jocks for their feature quartet. And it was Mxothwa, the SP Digest Stats Star of the week, who drew the right one.

Snaith had saddled the Australianbred Acrostar to win the 2016

last Weekend

renewal of this feature and after Harvard Crimson had run a game second last year, the daughter of Dynasty made amends in fine style this time round.

Mxothwa deserves plenty of credit.

He rode a beautifully judged race, after the mare had found herself caught wide early on.

As Money Penny led Peach Delight and Qing into the straight, Mxothwa angled Harvard Crimson towards the centre inside, but found his way blocked and had to switch out for a clear passage.

With stablemate Nima shadowing her, Harvard Crimson asserted her superiority late and drew away.

She finished best of the lot under the in-form rider to win by 2,75

lengths in a time of 127.32 secs.

Nima, under a determined Richard Fourie, came in here off some decent strength KZN Champions Season form, but had no answers to the year older lady.

The ever consistent Crackpot is something of an equine ATM for staunch Gauteng owner Graham Roberts and she stayed on for third – beaten 7,25 lengths by the winner.

Qing, the third of the Snaith runners to place, was a half-length behind her in fourth.

The favourite Beataboutthebush moved up with what looked like a double handful halfway down the straight, but her effort was as flat as a pancake and she faded to finish over 12 lengths off the winner. A

disappointing effort The Snaith Racing-bred Harvard Crimson is a 6yo daughter of Dynasty (Fort Wood) out of the four-time winner Badger Express (Badger Land). Highlands stallion Dynasty has made a cracking start to the season – and the Highveld feature season only gets under way next Saturday!

A R60 000 CTS 2013 Cape Ready To Run Sale bargain, she was registering her first stakes success and her 6th win from 28 starts for 7 places – and stakes of R428 425.

Dorrie Sham took the training honours on the afternoon with a treble – Ed: see Doris’ Day below while Louis Mxothwa and Muzi Yeni shared the riding accolade with two winners each.

Gareth van Zyl will complete his tenure as Brian Burnard’s private trainer this week.

Rock Deejay

Speedsters Stakes

Fairview Friday

Doris’ Day! Trainer Dorrie Sham has made a flying start to the new season and saddled a hat-trick of winners at Fairview on Friday to maintain the yard’s good form.

Dorrie – known as Doris to some – enjoyed the distinction of having bred the R110 000 Speedsters Stakes winner Rock Deejay in her winning treble. With Justin Snaith saddling the Jockey Club Stakes winner Harvard Crimson, it completed a unique feature double for trainer-breeders on the day.

The non black-type Speedsters Stakes hosted a small field of seven and the well-weighted Vous Et Var was a popular banker for many.

But replacement rider Muzi Yeni had other ideas and declaring a half kilo over Rock Deejay’s carded weight,

the Winning Form-sponsored jockey allowed the son of Seventh Rock to stride out front.

Registering a personal hat-trick, Rock Deejay kept on strongly to win in a time of 58,98 secs.

Vous Et Var was left with a bit to do and took off late to make ground on the leader – a half length being the deficit at the line.

Zevenastic was 3,25 lengths further back with Villa Del Largo running a modest fourth – his welterweight of 64kgs bogging him down.

Bred by Dorrie Sham, the 4yo gelded son of Seventh Rock (Rock Of Gibraltar) is out of the six-time winning Julia’s World (Sportsworld) and has won 5 races with 3 places from 11 starts and stakes of R267 700.

“Brian will be leaving some of his string with me and diversifying and spreading the rest. The timing has worked out really well. I had a very good National 2YO Sale and am very blessed to have acquired 7 horses there, and still have shares available in a couple of them.”

Van Zyl took the bold step of going out under his own name at the beginning of last season, striking out as private trainer to Brian Burnard.

He made his first day at the office one to remember when saddling Northern Storm, the first horse under his own name, who came home lonely under Anton Marcus on Friday, 28 October 2016. A little over an hour later, Celtic Captain made it a debut double, winning the Listed Jonsson Workwear Michaelmas Handicap under Warren Kennedy. As first days at the office go, he knocked it out of the park.

Gareth closed off a very satisfactory first season with 25 winners from 182 runners (a win strike rate of 13%, putting him alongside the likes of Justin Snaith, Joey Ramsden, Dean Kannemeyer, Charles Laird and Candice Dawson). His place percentage of 57% put him alongside Ormond Ferraris and Geoff Woodruff on the national table.

With a solid start under his belt as private trainer to Brian Burnard, Gareth is widening his net to become an open trainer, while Brian will be diversifying his racing interests.

Miss Frankel

Five years after he won the Juddmonte International, Frankel’s son Cracksman took his rivals apart in devastating fashion in the Betway Gr2 Great Voltigeur Stakes on Day 1 of the York Ebor Festival last Wednesday.

But the big Frankel moment of 23 August 2017 for South African racing fans was the Maiden Plate in the sleepy KZN Capital City – the victory signifying an emotional milestone for all those connected with Miss Frankel.

Ridden by Anton Marcus, the beautiful chestnut had to endure some anxious moments in the stalls before getting away on terms to beat her 13 opponents in the Maiden Plate over the 1000m.

With the going appearing to favour the middle to outside, Marcus had the Avontuur flyer out like a bullet from her 3 gate and drifted her to the middle of the track. She won in a common canter and looks to have a bright future.

South Africa now joins England, France, Ireland, Japan, USA, Argentina, Chile and Australia on the Frankel world map.

Bred and raced by Avontuur, Miss Frankel is a daughter of Var’s Equus champion Val De Ra, who won 11 of her 13 starts, including four Gr1’s.

And the great news for racing fans is that Miss Frankel will be on the Dennis Drier Cape Summer Season squad that arrives in the Mother City next month!

Kentucky Ruling Hailed By SA Expert reading and analyzing the court’s ruling.

A South African horseracing legal expert has hailed a landmark finding by a Kentucky Court, saying that he hoped other racing jurisdictions would soon follow suit and adopt the judgment “We’ve been on about the ‘strict liability’ rule for years as well as the disclosure of quantitative analysis,” said Attorney Robert Bloomberg when approached for a comment on the judgement.

Bloomberg was reacting to the findings in favour of trainer Graham Motion that the strict liability rule applied by the Kentucky Horse Racing commission is unconstitutional.

“It stands to reason that if you have no knowledge, played no part and can give a perfect valid explanation as to why a miniscule quantity of a prohibited substance showed up, whether through the environment or otherwise – or even if you can’t, but can show that the quantity detected can have no pharmacological affect on a racehorse and further that the racing authority, apart from the lab result have no other direct evidence, then why should you be found ‘guilty’ due to an archaic, unfair and unjust rule?” said Bloomberg.

While South African trainers are united via their various regional associations, it would take fairly deep pockets to fund an Application to the Constitutional Court – notwithstanding the fact that a costs order would be granted, if successful.

We live in hope that a benefactor may yet step forward to fund a move to have the rules amended.

Wider Reach

Unconstitutional

Bill Finley writes in the Thoroughbreddailynews.com that a Kentucky court has ruled in favour of trainer Graham Motion and owner George Strawbridge, tossing out the penalties assessed by the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission after their horse Kitten’s Point (Kitten’s Joy) tested positive for the medication Methocarbamol following her win in the Gr3 Bewitch S. in 2015 at Keeneland. Franklin Circuit Court Judge Thomas Wingate justified his decision, in part, on his finding that the “KHRC’s creation of an ‘absolute insurer rule’ for trainers is unconstitutional.”

That portion of the ruling could mean the beginning of the end of the trainer responsibility rule. The rule is a long-standing provision in American racing that whenever a horse tests positive for an illegal medication or drug, the horse’s trainer, no matter the circumstances, is responsible and subject to penalties.

Defence

“The court held that Kentucky’s absolute insurer rule is unconstitutional, that if you are going to fine somebody, disqualify their horse, take away purse money, you have to give them the right to defend themselves,” said Motion’s lawyer Craig Robertson. “And if you

Robert Bloomberg - happy with ruling have a rule that imposes strict liability that says ‘if there is medication in your horse, it’s your fault, period,’ then that’s not constitutional. You have to allow the trainer to be able to offer reasons as to how and why that medication got into the horse’s system and that it was not his or her fault. That’s the broader implication of this ruling that can impact every single medication violation in Kentucky going forward.”

Marc Guilfoil, the executive director of the KHRC, said the commission will look into what course it may take.

“We are evaluating the opinion and the order issued by Judge Wingate in the Graham Motion case and are in the process of evaluating all legal options,” Guilfoil said.

Ed Martin, the president of Racing Commissioners International, said he would withhold comment until

For now, the Motion decision only affects cases involving trainers in Kentucky, but Robertson said that may not be the case for long.

“As of right now, it’s a Kentucky ruling, so it’s only binding in the Kentucky courts,” he said. “That being said, we as lawyers oftentimes argue that, ‘Hey, this other state has done something, you should do it here too.’ That can be a persuasive argument. If I were hired to defend a trainer in New York, Florida, California or any other state and they had an absolute insurer rule similar to Kentucky’s, I would argue to them, ‘Look at what the Kentucky courts have done, you should do the same thing in your state.’”

When asked if the Kentucky decision could eventually lead to the end of the absolute insurer rule in all states, Robertson replied: “It could.”

Goalposts

Motion’s attorney believes that modern drug testing has become so good that it has changed the narrative when it comes the rules regarding trainers and medication positives.

“We’ve gotten this to this point where the testing is so fine and you can test at such minute levels,” he said. “For example, in this case, the threshold was set at one nanogram for Methocarbomol, which is one billionth of a gram. Twenty years ago you couldn’t test at these low levels and now they’ve gotten to the point where they’re able to test at such low levels, it makes things such as environmental contamination

Europe’s leading source of Classic/Gr. 1 Winners since 1766

much more problematic. Twenty years ago, if you got a medication overage, there was a whole lot of the stuff in the horse’s system. The law has to change along with the times.”

Methocarbamol is a muscle relaxant that works by blocking nerve impulses or pain sensations that are sent to your brain, and it also prevents cramping.

The court’s other justification for throwing out the penalties handed down by the KHRC was its contention that the threshold levels for the particular drug were arbitrary and capricious, and that the commission was not able to come up with any science to prove that such low levels of the medication could improve a horse’s performance.

Science A Must

“You have to have science behind something like this,” Robertson said. “You just can’t arbitrarily pick a threshold level out of the air.”

After Kitten’s Point tested positive, Motion was hit with a relatively light penalty, a $500 fine and a five-day suspension. Robertson commended his client for refusing to accept the penalties and waging what turned into a two-year fight.

“In the grand scheme of things, most trainers would have accepted the punishment, even if they felt they had done nothing wrong, and just moved on,” he said. “Instead, this was two years of litigation and involved a lot of money in legal fees and an emotional toll. But Graham felt very strongly about his reputation. He wanted to defend it and he wanted to stand up for all horsemen, because not everyone is in a position to challenge something like this.”

New Direction For Singapore Racing

I

The Singapore racing industry is on the cusp of a major paradigm shift as it moves into a bold new direction come the 2018 racing season.

n a press release, the Singapore Turf Club announced three main initiatives to keep the industry sustainable into the future and drive key changes to the local racing scene.

The cornerstone of the initiatives behind this major overhaul will be centred on quality over quantity.

Right-size Number of Races

To ensure good field sizes and competitive races, 800 races are mapped out for the 2018 season, down from the current season’s 900.

This optimal number of races was derived after weighing up the median number of runners per race versus a projected horse pool of 1,250 horses.

One significant measure which will be implemented from next season is a one-off increase of five rating points for all horses across the board.

This one-off increase in rating points will increase the horse numbers in the higher Classes and lower the numbers in Class 5, thus providing sufficient number of horses to enable more higher classes of races to be programmed.

Horses, however, will not be disadvantaged by the five points increase as they will all still be racing against the same horses, carrying the same weight differentials.

The aim is to achieve bigger field sizes (10 to 12 starters) in higher classes coupled with an increase in

the number of Class 3 and 4 races and a reduction of Class 5 races.

Over time, this will encourage the influx of better quality horses as there will be more higher class races being staged.

The one-off increase in ratings of horses will be carried out at the end of the 2017 racing season.

Another significant measure to give the racing programme a ‘racier’ edge is to cap race distances at 2000m as Singapore-based horses are more competitive over shorter distances.

With the capping of race distances to 2000m, significant changes to the distances of the feature races will include reducing the distance of the Singapore Gold Cup from 2200m to 2000m, the Emirates Singapore Derby from 2000m to 1800m, and the Raffles Cup and the Chairman’s Trophy from 1800m to 1600m respectively. (Please refer to the attached table)

Adjust Prize Money to Encourage Quality

Prize money for Singapore races will be adjusted to favour and encourage quality. At the top end, Group 1 and Group 2 (with the exception of the Aushorse Golden Horseshoe) races will carry minimum prize money of $1 million and $500,000 respectively.

The two richest feature races, the $1.35 million Group 1 Singapore Gold

Cup and the $1.15 million Group 1 Emirates Singapore Derby will remain at that level while the other Group 1 races will be carrying prize money of $1 million each. They are the Kranji Mile, Raffles Cup, Singapore Guineas, Queen Elizabeth II Cup, Lion City Cup and Patron’s Bowl while Group 2 races that will be worth $500,000 each are the Merlion Trophy, Singapore ThreeYear-Old Classic, EW Barker Trophy, Stewards’ Cup and Chairman’s Trophy.

At the other end of the spectrum, prize money for Class 5 races will be adjusted, again to emphasise on quality. Prize money for Class 5 races will drop from $35,000 to $20,000.

This drop in prize money for Class 5 races however would only affect a small number of horses as about half of the horses presently in Class 5 will be eligible to race in the Class 4 NonPremier races.

Class 4 races will be divided into Premier and Non-Premier divisions with Class 4 Premier races carrying the present prize money of $60,000 and Class 4 Non-Premier races (catering to low-rated Class 4 horses) will carry prize money of $45,000.

Restricted Maiden and Novice races will see their prize money increase from $75,000 to $85,000 to encourage owners to invest more in young quality horses.

The prize money changes will take effect from 1 January 2018.

Reintroduce International Races

The Club will reintroduce two international races over the distances of 1200m and 1600m in 2019 and will carry purses of $1.35 million and $3 million respectively.

SA Jockeys Salute A Gentleman South African horseracing was shocked to learn on Thursday 24 August of the sudden passing of popular KZN jockey Alec Forbes.

The 41 year old Alec Forbes rode a winner at Scottsville last Wednesday but had not been feeling well and was admitted to hospital that evening.

In a statement issued by the Coastal Jockeys Association, Vice- Chairman Greg Cheyne said he spoke for all South African jockeys in expressing shock and sadness at the sudden passing of their colleague and friend.

“We are all deeply shocked.

Our sincerest condolences go out to Alec’s wife Lezeanne, his young son Zac, as well as Jordan and Savannah, who live in Europe. He was a top-class rider and a gentleman of the sport. I personally spoke to Alec on Gold Cup day and he said he was nursing a broken foot. He was in good spirits. We are so saddened for his family,” said Cheyne.

Together with Greg Cheyne, Alec Forbes was the last remaining member of his year at the SA Jockey Academy to still

sport – and even to lovers of the sport. The SAJA Board surely know that the industry is at a low ebb – why the aversion to disseminating simple good news?

The Al Rayyan Apprentice Cup popped up as the non-exotic tenth race on the Scottsville Sunday programme, and despite confusing some bettors and tote tellers, went ahead as an entertaining show – with no whips being used by the greenhorns.

Ten of the Qatar apprentices, some with no winners to their name and even having their first race ride in certain instances, were put through their paces. And it was fascinating to watch, with a variety of unorthodox

he honour roll of the SA Jockey Academy is an impressive one. But living in an information bubble and leaning on star past graduates to maintain public awareness and credibility only works up to a point.

Positives like apprentices competing in international competitions – and conversely, the Qatar Racing Club having identified the SA Jockey Academy as a potential training ground for their riders to upgrade racing in the Gulf State, need to be told. It needs to be shouted to the world – to parents of prospective future jockeys, to sponsors, to Government, to detractors of the

Alec Forbes rode his first winner at his 8th ride for Snowy Reid on Don’t Blame Me at Scottsville on 19 May 1993. He also rode a host of Gr1 winners – his most memorable association being with the Equus Champion Val De Ra, on whom he won the 2011 Computaform Sprint to beat What A Winter. He also partnered another Var star in Via Africa.

A memorial service for the late Alec Forbes will be held at Greyville in the Parade Ring on Thursday 31 August at 12:00.

Al Rayyan Apprentice Cup The SA Jockey Academy is currently recruiting for the 2018 intake of tomorrow’s stars. One would imagine then that the inaugural running of the R100 000 Al Rayyan Apprentice Cup at Scottsville on Sunday would at the very least have received a touch of publicity and hype to reinforce the profile of one of the most highly regarded professional jockey institutions in the world.

Racing remains on the upgrade in Qatar. Widely experienced former National Horseracing Authority of South Africa Racing Control Executive Dave McGillivray took up the position of Chief Steward with the Qatar Racing and Equestrian Club when leaving here at the end of 2014.

Horse racing has always been part of the Arabian Culture and the Qatari’s have been racing their horses for centuries. Officially horseracing was established in 1975 by an Emiri decree. The Racing Season consisted of 4 official racedays with Thoroughbred and Arabian races. Unofficially there were many more. Starting

Stalls from Australia and a Photo Finish System were used for the first time.

In 1991 a local company constructed a new racetrack with the existing Grandstand being upgraded. At that time the Racing Season was increased to 12 race days, with 5 races each day. Races were programmed for Thoroughbreds, Local Thoroughbred and Arabians.

In 1994 a new track was again constructed by a local company.

The Racing Season was increased to 20 racedays. Overall Prize money was increased from $500,000 to $2,000,000. The photo finish was upgraded to a Lynx system and New 16-stall starting gates were purchased from Steriline, Australia.

In 2001 the French Company Gregori commenced construction of the current Al Rayyan Race Course. This project incorporated modernised Grandstand, air conditioned stabling, Indoor Horse Swimming pool, new Vet Hospital and Farrier Section.

Durbanville Racecourse was given the thumbs up after a gallop on the beautiful new surface on Monday and will host seven straight meetings commencing on 23 September 2017.

The Cape’s country course closed for business in October last year for extensive refurbishment in a bid to create an environment for a better class horse.

“We rebuilt the track because it was very undulating and there were areas that became waterlogged,” said Kenilworth Racing GM Dean Diedericks.

“In consultation with roleplayers, like trainers and jockeys, we also lengthened and widened the home straight and built cross-falls, 3.5% on the bend and 2% on the straight. We believe the cross-fall on the turn will, to a large degree, remove the draw bias. We also created a dogleg for the 1000m start, which used to start right on the start of the turn. And the finishing post is being realigned to provide a longer pull-up area.”

In addition, subsurface drainage and a fixed irrigation system have been installed with the goal of creating a world-class racing facility.

Durbanville is important in the bigger scheme of things as it takes the pressure off Kenilworth and accommodates gallops on alternate weeks for horses from Milnerton and Phillipi.

With the drought situation in the province, the option of having a viable alternative to save Kenilworth for the premier Cape summer feature season has been an even more pressing priority.

Original plans that were mooted to extend the Milnerton grass gallop track into an oval are likely to be dropped because of the restrictions imposed by the conservation area.

Although women in racing are not that rare, young black women are. Smart, young, black women with megawatt smiles who are enthused about the racing industry are very rare indeed, but take all that, wrap it up in a broad smile, add wide brown eyes sparkling with warmth and good humour and you have Hazel Kayiya.

azel is a major coup for the South African racing industry. Not only is she living, breathing affirmation that there is still a career path to be had, but a shining example of what can be achieved if you put your mind to it. And luckily for us, this dynamic young woman is only just getting started.

About Hazel

Hazel was born to a close knit family in the small Zimbabwean town of Kwekwe. Her parents are “my beacon, my cheering squad and above all, my sounding board”.

Hazel describes herself as the middle of the family’s three ‘free spirited girls’. Her elder sister is a registered nurse in London while her younger sister works in logistics in Canada. Hazel’s studies brought her to South Africa in 2006, where she would graduate with Honours in Accounting from the University of KwaZulu Natal.

Hazel’s horse racing journey began when she threw her hat into the ring for a Financial Audit Clerk position at Gold Circle in June 2011. “Having worked for Deloitte Zimbabwe for three years, I was drawn to risk management and internal control procedures,” she explains. With the restructuring of the Internal Audit department in 2012, she found herself promoted to Risk Assurance Audit Manager.

In 2013 Gold Circle started an Executive Development Program (EDP) with the aim of training people from previously disadvantaged backgrounds for senior management positions in the company. “My mentor and superior at the time, Sylvia Powel-Rees, put my name forward for the program and I was very fortunate to get selected. I think it is very important to note that I wouldn't be where I am today if it wasn't for Sylvia. The horseracing industry is very male dominated and we need more females like her creating and affording opportunities for women to be part of the c-suite level.”

It was as part of the EDP that Hazel attended Summerhill’s School of Management Excellence.

Why Stud management?

“Gold Circle saw it as a necessity to groom not only managers, but industry leaders and where better than to start right at the beginning where the magic happens?”

Summerhill’s stud management course is tough even for people with a life time of horse experience and as a total neophyte, Hazel admits it was a challenge. Aside from the theory, there is plenty of practical work including grooming, basic farriery and foaling mares, although Hazel says the blistering cold is all worth it when a foal is born and you are on night duty. However, Hazel most enjoyed her experience starting young horses. “I have a soft spot for Rich Girl (AUS) (Rock of Gibraltar (IRE) - Miss Moguls). I remember walking into her stable to take her to the paddock so that I could muck out the stable. It was the first time I had to go into the stable by myself to get a horse. As I entered she moved around the box. I was afraid, so I just froze in my tracks and she came and put her head on my shoulder. I think that's the moment I fell in love with horses.”

“There were times I wanted to walk away and call it quits. There were instances that I did cry and felt disappointed when my efforts were in vain. However, credit has to go to Heather Morkel who was a great mentor and teacher, as well as Mick Goss. I had an amazing support system, not only on the farm but also from Gold Circle that helped me persevere and finish the course.”

Although joking that she exchanged her Jimmy Choos and Gucci perfume for gum boots and the smell of horse manure, Hazel graduated one of the top students in her class as well as being voted Team Player. “Horse racing is a people business and being nominated as team player was a humbling moment for me,” says Hazel thoughtfully. As recognition for being one of the top students of 2013, Hazel received a CATHSSETA International Internship to the Hong Kong Jockey Club.

Spreading her wings

A stint at the HKJC is the envy of anyone looking to carve a career in racing and Hazel concurs. “Being in Hong Kong was a life changing experience which continues to shape me to dare to dream, to be better and do better.” Her internship included three weeks working with the Asian Racing Conference team, getting a behind-the-scenes view into what makes the conference work as well as meeting some of the top minds in the industry. She did a one month stint with the Racing Development board and devoted the remainder of her time learning about the HKJC and gaining

an understanding of their racing culture. Inbetween Hazel attended race meetings alternating between the Judges box and the Stipendiary Stewards team and also travelled to China to witness the beginning of the Conghua Training Facility, attend races at the Macau Jockey Club and tour their stables.

Hazel returned to South Africa, being promoted to Gold Circle’s Corporate Services Executive and then received an offer from Hong Kong and joined the HKJC in September 2016. She currently works under the HKJC’s Executive Director, Andrew Harding and her responsibilities include coordinating and supporting the HKJC engagement with the International Federation of Horseracing Authorities (IFHA) Executive Council and Technical Committees, managing strategic relationships and promoting the participation of racing by Asian Racing Federation (ARF) member countries. She also compiles annual returns of statistics on wagering and prize money.

“Being part of the HKJC and the ARF has provided me with significant exposure in the key trends in not only the betting industry but also the racing administration aspect of the industry,” she observes.

Is it challenging being a female in racing?

“The horse racing industry is still very traditional and still is an old boys club. Certainly, it has been progressive in giving more opportunities to females, but I think more can still be done.

“My journey in horseracing has been very different to most.

Being a millennial and female, you sometimes feel as though the deck is stacked against you and it can be intimidating at times. I was very lucky to have Heather Morkel and Sylvia Powel-Rees as role models to look up to and learn from, who have always told me that I am capable and I deserve a seat at the table.

I have a strong respect for woman in the horse racing industry. I am because of them.”

“Perhaps where I have found difficulty is that there are no opportunities for growth in the industry and what young people can bring and offer to the table.

I think promotion should be based on competence and not years of service, or because so and so has been in the industry for x number of years longer than you.

Industry leaders need to surround themselves with people who think differently to them who bring in a fresh perspective. Hire and promote the right people. I believe that’s how we will be able to effect change. Invest in skills development for the youth in the industry as they are the next

generation of leaders.”

Has your South African grounding stood you in good stead abroad?

“Being part of the HKJC I am working with some of the smartest people in the industry and I’m learning a lot, but my educational background, including my schooling at Summerhill, have provided me with a good steady work ethic platform, more so the Gold Circle EDP. This exposed me to understanding the fundamentals of horse racing - how do you streamline operations to reduce costs? How do you negotiate in the board room and communicate with employees at various levels in the organization?

Project management and critical thinking skills.”

“I even had a 12 week coaching session that helped me develop and understand my strengths and how to maximize them. I have to give credit to Gold Circle, especially my three mentors Michel Nairac, Michael Smith and Mick Goss. I appreciate the importance of mentorship and coaching and how they challenged me to strive for excellence, and I believe that foundation has been instrumental in my growth here in Hong Kong.”

“However, there are some things that I have learnt here that perhaps should have been part of my learning curve in South Africa. For example, we had our end of season function at a restaurant not owned by the HKJC and as one of the directors was giving a speech the microphone stopped working. People collectively agreed “this would never happen at the Jockey Club.”

I learnt two things that evening - your employees are at the core of your business; they are by far your best advocates.

Horseracing needs to create an engaged work culture that makes its employees take pride in the quality of their work, be it in any position you are at. More importantly, we need to take pride in the small things. If you can’t get the small things right, how can you get the big things to work?”

Any lessons from Hong Kong that we could apply here?

“The horseracing industry in South Africa needs to listen to its customers, listen to its staff. Your customers are the lifeblood of the industry, and the staff is the heart.

As an industry, we need to learn to listen effectively and efficiently and solve problems as they arise.

Too much money is wasted and opportunities are missed because of recurring problems that should have been fixed if they were done right the first time.”

What is next for Hazel Kayiya?

“With the influence of my current role I find myself gravitating towards the field of strategy, collaboration and communication. Operating the Asian Racing Federation Secretariat has exposed me to the multifaceted world of International Business Management and I hope to pursue studies in the field of International Business. One thing I know for sure, horse racing needs to be bold and try new things. We are constantly coming up with variations of what’s already there and that formula ceased to work a decade ago. We should stop settling for ‘this is how we have always done it’ and just getting by to the next season. We need to strive for excellence, from our customer service, to wagering offerings, to how we manage our employees. Hopefully in my lifetime the South African horse racing industry will be brave enough to acknowledge that the status quo is not working and will be bold enough to effect change.”

Uniformity?

In some provinces, horses can be loaded without a jockey – in others not. Surely a starting brief should be uniform nationally under one NHA? Who, after all, dictates the policy?

CLOSE! After being pipped

by Marsha in the Gr1 Coolmore Nunthorpe Stakes at York last Friday, champion Lady Aurelia returns to Keeneland this week.

The recent Gr1 King’s Stand Stakes winner was full of beans after her narrow loss and trainer Wesley Ward said that he felt that Lady Aurelia – much like her blushing jockey Frankie Dettori – thought she had won the Nunthorpe. Scat Daddy’s daughter has her final race of the year in the $1 million Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint on 4 November at Del Mar.

Goose Flies KZN Flag Longstanding Vaal trainer Louis Goosen has relocated to Ashburton in KZN in a strategic business move. He attributed the move to his last poor season and the loss of the Vaal sand, amongst other factors. His interview with James Goodman on Monday evening’s Winning Ways Show (Dstv 239) is well worth a watch.

Following a nerve wracking loss of ground at her last start, Aussie superstar Winx will wear ear muffs in the Gr2 Chelmsford Stakes to be run over a mile at Randwick on Saturday as she chases her 19th consecutive win. Winx is aiming to create history this spring by joining the legendary Kingston Town as the only horse to win three Cox Plates.

Jockey Wanted

NO EXCUSES

The powerful Sabine Plattner Racing operation is looking for a new jockey after parting ways with Grant van Niekerk . “I still rate Grant highly but he and I didn’t really gel as a team in the way we should, and his contract came to an end at the end of last season. At the moment we are freelancing but the job is open and we are looking,” trainer Andre Nel told Gold Circle journo Michael Clower.

The US$2 million Breeders' Cup Distaff is the likely next start for dual Eclipse Award winner Songbird after her shock loss in Saturday's Gr1 Personal Ensign Stakes at Saratoga. In only the second defeat of her career, she was nabbed late by the highly regarded 5YO mare Forever Unbridled. Nice to hear no excuses being tendered!

Multiple SA champion jockey Mark Khan made a winning comeback to the saddle after a seven year absence last Thursday with a win on the aptly named, Effortless for Gary Alexander. He followed up for the same yard on Saturday on Zest And Zeal.

In an interview with Andrew Bon, Khan answered the doubting lobby in regard to his insurance payout and subsequent return. There are some who have suggested that the ‘comeback jocks’ are doing a disservice to their colleagues, taking jobs in tough times and increasing insurance premiums.

Watch the interview on www.sportingpost.co.za

VOICE OF AFRICA It is great news that South African racecaller Trevor Denman, currently in his 34th season at Del Mar, will be inducted into the Southern California Sports Broadcasters Hall of Fame in January.

Quick On the Draws

SA Champion jockey Anthony Delpech called on the authorities after a close call on a fancied runner recently to revisit the start loading procedures that are being done in order of barrier gate position.”It’s not fair on the horse.

It’s not fair on the connections.

It’s not fair on the punters,” he warned. Is anybody going to listen?

Fransie On Fire Well-travelled SA jockey Francois Herholdt finished his season in Saudi Arabia on Saturday with a winner. Sanooj came home well to win by a length prompting Herholdt to write on Facebook that he has enjoyed riding there. “I have gained a lot of experience. A big thank you to the Alsimaawi stable, my owner Mr Abdulelah Abulaziz Al Mousa, and of course trainer Neil Bruss. It has been an honour working with the whole team. Thank you once again for a successful season.” While betting is not permitted, horse racing is one of the few diversions in a country where public cinemas and theatres are banned. Professional sport is limited to football.

The NHT is currently raising funds for the establishment of a muchneeded fourth unit in Kimberley. The NHT’s annual race day is one of their flagship fundraisers and this year’s event was held at Turffontein last Saturday, 26 August 2017.

The Racing Trust does not have a website, or publish much in the way of information about what it does. However, it was established at the time of corporatisation and according to the 2016 Phumelela annual report, the principal objective of the Trust is to “promote the interest of all persons interested in, and affected by, the sport of thoroughbred horseracing in South Africa with a view to the long-term viability of the sport”, with additional objectives relating to B-BBEE and affirmative action schemes.

It is manned by a board of seven Trustees who preside over 35.26% of Phumelela shares and the Racing Trust is administered by the Racing Association. In other words, quite separate to the National Horse Trust.

The Art of War The next bit of my story goes all the way back to the start of the First World War. It may not seem to have a great deal of relevance, but bear with me.

During the first Battle of the Marne, which took place in September 1914, French and British troops halted the German advance into France. The German troops retreated to the Aisne River, digging in there and establishing the origins of a static Western Front, which eventually ran from the North Sea to the Swiss Frontier with France and would remain in place for three years.

It would also be the scene of one of the most remarkable moments of the war when an estimated 100,000 troops joined in the socalled Christmas Truce of 1914 and

ceased hostilities on Christmas eve who served throughout the war, mused “I wouldn't have missed that 1914.

Reports of the event differ, but unique and weird Christmas Day for it seems it started with German anything....” troops placing candles on their Back to the NHT trenches and Christmas trees and In order to raise funds, the NHT sang Christmas carols.

To continue my ‘war’ theme, I’m cigars. Some reports indicate that there may even have been friendly borrowing a quote from Winston games of football played. The brief Churchill who once said, “You have cessation of hostilities also allowed enemies? Good. That means you've both parties to collect and bury their stood up for something, sometime dead.

ATING SPEED R WON 20/1

A review of the week's best SPEEDRATINGS

Still Going Strong Greyville 20 August Sunday’s action took place on the poly track where the fastest of the afternoon’s four 2000m races was the MR60 Handicap won by the top weight PEGGY’S DREAM. Sent off a joint second favourite at 5/1, the daughter of Jay Peg was always handy. She was ridden to lead as they approached the 400m marker and although the pacemaker EINA kept on doggedly after being headed, she got the verdict by a half.

Quickest home in the three 1400m events was ROCKET MASTER when winning the MR66 Handicap.

The son of Jet Master got away well when the gates opened and led throughout. He raced a length and a quarter clear for most of the journey and that proved to be just enough to beat the much faster finishing FANTASY ART (came from the backend of midfield).

The remaining races were both staged over 1600m and stopping the clock in the fastest time amongst these was the veteran NICKLAUS in the bill topping pinnacle stakes. At the top of the boards on leaving the stalls, the 7yo was always handy. He ran on strongly in the straight and with the rest well beaten he got the better of the 4yo WILD WICKET by three quarters.

TITBITS Easy to back JUST RAP (9/2 out to 7/1) was baulked for a run en-route from the rear before getting up in the very last stride to win the MR70 Handicap over 1400m.

Afternoon Assault

Vaal 22 August They raced on the inside track on Tuesday where victory in the fastest of the three 1400m races, a MR94 Handicap, went to the bottom weight TRADING PROFIT. Soon up handy, the 4/1 second favourite raced prominent throughout. He put his head in front going through the 200m and with the rest some three lengths adrift, he kept on strongly late to beat ARTICA by three quarters.

The MR68 Handicap was the faster of the two 1200m races and here CLARET CUP registered her second career victory. Nibbled at on course into 17/2 from 12’s, Paul Peter’s charge was soon positioned close to the speed. She ran on strongly at the business end of the race, and with the benefit of first run, she comfortably accounted for the four-timer seeking LAST GIRL STANDING by a length and a half.

By far the easiest victory on the card was that of DAWN ASSAULT in the graduation plate over 1800m.

Taken straight to the front by S’manga Khumalo, the Call To Combat gelding led throughout. He raced just a length and a quarter clear for most of the journey before cruising clear over the final 300m to score by eight and a quarter.

TITBITS The 7/10 favourite TAMMANY HALL had the remainder eleven and a half lengths adrift when getting the better of the newcomer PENNY FROM HEAVEN (2/1 second favourite) by three quarters.

Be With The Boys Scottsville 23 August

Blackball | Four of the eight races in Pietermaritzburg on Wednesday were staged over 1400m and stopping the clock in the fastest time here was BLACKBALL in the MR71 Handicap.

Easy to back at 17/2 on the off the 3yo son of Black Minnaloushe raced in midfield during the early part of the race. He quickened well at the top of the straight and won going away after striking the front 150m from home.

The faster of the two maiden plates over 1000m was the boy’s affair in which the 4/10 favourite DIAMONDS FOREVER got rolled.

Always well positioned to strike, Diamonds Forever could find

All Maiden Events Turffontein 24 August The best bet on the card for most on the inner track on Thursday was RIDING SHOTGUN in the opening maiden event for 3yo’s over 1000m. Always deep in the red, the son of Brave Tin Soldier was soon positioned up with the speed. He began to assert his authority going through the 400m and went on to score very comfortably by three.

Two of the afternoon’s eight races were maiden plates for 3yo’s over 1160m and running out an easy winner in the quicker of these was MANITOBA in the boy’s affair. Soon up handy, St John Gray’s charge took up the running shortly before halfway. He quickly went clear and won very easily by three.

Marginally the faster of the two maiden plates over 1600m was the girl’s division in which the 7/10 favourite CASHEL PRINCE came home smoking. Always well positioned to strike, Alec Laird’s charge put her head in front 400m out and cruised clear in the closing stages of the race to score by eight and a quarter.

TITBITS Aptly named EFFORTLESS easily accounted for her seven rivals when getting off the mark in the girl’s division of the maiden plate over 1400m.

The 3yo LIKE A PANTHER cruised clear to score by six and a half after taking up the running 130m from home in the maiden plate over 1600m.

Sparkling Diamond Kenilworth 26 August The going was good to soft on the old course on Saturday where the fastest of the three 1000m races was the MR84 Handicap won by CASUAL DIAMOND. Just six went to post and with the exception of EXTRADITE who raced detached at the rear they were very tightly bunched. Justin Snaith’s charge put her head in front going through the 100m and went on to score with authority by three and a quarter.

The only other distance to stage more than one race was 1400m where APOLLO STAR was quickest home. Always handy in this MR72 Handicap over 1400m, the son of Alado was ridden to lead 150m out and kept on strongly late to beat the staying on pacemaker ROCKETEER by three quarters.

A workrider’s maiden plate over 1000m had opened up proceedings and here we saw

RIDING SH

a very easy victory for the uneasy favourite I AM CAPTAIN. Allowed to drift right out to 2/1 from even money, the Captain Al filly was soon prominent. She assumed command 400m out and drew clear easily from there onwards to score by seven and a quarter.

TITBITS The 14/1 shot MASTER’S SPIRIT came from the back when getting up very late to win the MR80 Handicap over 1000m.

Notebook

Horses worth following at their next few starts...

CASHEL PRINCE (A Laird, Gauteng) QUEEN’S PLAIN (D Howells, KZN)

no extra when the front running ON YOUR LIFE stepped on the gas 300m out. Indeed, On Your Life won going away by four.

They also ran two maiden events over 1000m and again the boys were the quickest. Allowed to drift right out to 13/1 from 6’s, the winner BAD ATTITUDE was soon positioned close up in second. He took up the running 100m out and comfortably accounted for the newcomer UNBELIEVABLE LAD by a length and a quarter.

TITBITS Drawn wide and slow into stride to boot, he newcomer QUEEN’S PLAIN impressed when running on from the rear to win the maiden plate over 1400m going away.

Allowed to drift right out to 20/1 from 8’s, MASTER OF MISCHIEF ran on well from the rear when getting up late to win the MR83 Handicap over 1400m.

FLOWER ALLEY

T

Leading US stallion, Distorted Humor, represented in South Africa by the Gr1 winners, Flower Alley and Pathfork, is a sire whose influence continues to grow.

he Forty Niner son, who began his stud career at a fee of $12 500, is enjoying a purple patch as a broodmare sire.

Distorted Humor was Champion US Sire in 2011 and is currently North America’s Leading Broodmare Sire by money earned, thanks primarily to the deeds of his maternal grandson, Arrogate (Unbridled’s Song).

Plenty To Pick From However, the chestnut is by no means a one hit wonder as a broodmare sire, with Distorted Humor mares having produced nine individual stakes winners in 2017. This total includes Saturday’s Gr1 H. Allen Jerkins Stakes winner, Practical Joke (Into Mischief), who also won the Gr1 Champagne and G1 Hopeful Stakes last year, while other notable performers produced by daughters of Distorted Humor are 2017 G1 winning fillies, Elate (Alabama Stakes) and New Money Honey (Belmont Oaks), both of whom were sired by Medaglia D’Oro.

Distorted Humor is damsire of in excess of 50 stakes winners and as a relatively young broodmare sire with numerous daughters yet to be represented on the racecourse, looks likely to feature prominently as a damsire for years to come.

Distorted Humor is also North America’s 9th leading sire by Average Earnings Index, with the sire currently sporting an AEI of 2.03.

(Put into perspective, three time leading US sire, Tapit, has an Average Earnings Index of 2.36 while current sire star, Medaglia D’Oro, sports an AEI of 2.04).

Sire Of Sires The impeccably bred Mr Prospector grandson is also making a mark as a sire of sires, with Distorted Humor’s son, Jimmy Creed, making an eye catching impression with his first crop in 2017. To date, the Gr1 Malibu Stakes winning Jimmy Creed has been represented by nine first crop juvenile winners (from 20 runners) with his best runner to date being unbeaten Sorrento Stakes winner, Spectator.

So Many Choices

T

Snitzel's history-making 2013/14 Australian Sires Premiership quinella with his champion Dad Redoute's Choice was the prelude to soaring success over the following three seasons.

hree years later, at the end of the 2016/17 season, he has not only claimed all three major Australian Sires' earnings premierships (General, 3YO & 2YO), but also leads them by Winners, Stakes winners & Stakes Wins.

Snitzel's status as Australia's hottest sire has been cemented in 2017 by 29 winners of 36 worldwide Group & Listed Races, featuring a stunning sequence of four new Group 1 winners within 17 days during the Autumn, and by 111 yearlings sold for an average price of A$375,732.

Snitzel has also made history with five very

special achievements in 2017: He equalled Danehill's single-season record of 26 Australian stakes winners.

He set a new Australian record for stallion earnings in a season with $16.1 million.

He sired the first Australian Gr1 2YO trifecta by the same stallion since 1982.

He claimed the Australian-sired 2YO winners record, with a season tally of 35 including three in New Zealand.

He completed an unprecedented three-generation sequence of Champion Australian Sires: Danehill (9 titles), Redoute's Choice (2006, 2010, 2014) – and himself in 2017.

Another promising sire son of Distorted Humor is unbeaten Maclean’s Music (bred on the reverse cross to Arrogate), who won his only racecourse outing. Maclean’s Music, currently North America’s 3rd leading second crop sire, made an immediate impression with his first 3yos this season including the classic Gr1 Preakness Stakes winner, Cloud Computing. Maclean’s Music boasts some impressive stats, with the Hill ‘N Dale based sire represented by six black type winners (from 64 runners in total) in 2017.

Wilgerbosdrift based, Flower Alley enjoyed further US success this past weekend and had a number of winners, highlighted by daughter, Beach Flower, landing a stakes race over a mile. Her Gr1 Travers Stakes winning sire is best known as a stallion for siring US champion and Kentucky Derby winner, I’ll Have Another, himself standing at stud in Japan, and fellow US Gr1 winners, Lilacs And Lace and Lukes Alley.

Top Level

Any Given Saturday is another son of Distorted Humor to have both won at the highest level on the track and to sire Gr1 winners. The 2007 Haskell Invitational winner

is responsible for $4 million plus earner, Hoppertunity and Mongolian Saturday – the Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint winner.

A smart performer, without being successful at the highest level, Distorted Humor is one of a handful of sires to become a champion without having that all important Gr1 win to his name.

Rajsaman (Linamix), currently the leading sire in France, is another potentially belonging to this club, as are the likes of Danzig (Northern Dancer), Nureyev (Northern Dancer), and Elusive Quality (Gone West).

In South Africa, there have been plenty of examples of leading sires who never won at the highest level, including, in recent times triple champion sire, Western Winter (Gone West), Al Mufti (Roberto), Northern Guest (Northern Dancer) and Jallad (Blushing Groom).

Rose Leaves Another interesting factor in the pedigree of Distorted Humor is that he traces back directly in female line to the great broodmare, Rose Leaves, whose stakes winning offspring included Calumet legend and five time champion US sire, Bull Lea (Bull Dog).

This is also the same family as former South African champion 2yo, Scented Royal (Royal Prerogative) and last season’s dual local Guineas winner, Janoobi (Silvano), while Saturday’s GR1 Travers Stakes winner, West Coast (whose dam is Breeders’ Cup winning champion, Caressing) is another from this celebrated family.

While Distorted Humor, whose fee at one stage reached $300 000, (equal to A P Indy), is only 24th on the US sires list this year - he has been represented by five black type winners in 2017 - he looks sure to yet make further impact on major international races through the legacy of his sons and daughters.

Ed – Flower Alley goes on show at Wilgerbosdrift this Sunday - see below.

RIGHT HERE...

More Choices Another exciting son of Redoute’s Choice is on the big five agenda at this Sunday’s Stallion Parade at Wilgerbosdrift Stud.

Highlands, Part of Ridgemont, exciting newbie Rafeef joins locals Flower Alley and Soft Falling Rain, together with Moutonshoek duo The United States and Admiral Kitten, on an illustrious billing.

All five are Gr1 winning sons of champions.

Spokeswoman for the organisers, Amanda Carey, said that it was all systems go and a big turnout was expected at the champion farm.

A sizzling 33 degrees is forecast with plenty of sunshine.
