Magical Wonderland could avenge her defeat by Snowdance last time

Gr1 CAPE FILLIES GUINEAS at Kenilworth this Saturday

Fillies - The Classic Crunch!

The fairer sex classic game unfolds on the Kenilworth Summer Course playground on Saturday where a nationally representative best of generation bunch vie for honours in the R1 million Gr1 Cape Fillies Guineas.

ith the male classic picture still a touch hazy after the Selangor Cup and Dingaans results, the fillies get a chance to assert themselves for Equus honours and sort the wheat from the chaff. After her dazzling end-to-end victory in the Gr2 Western Cape Fillies Championship last month, the beautifully drawn Snowdance has been priced up favourite and the Justin Snaith-trained daughter of Captain Al gets a serious opportunity to stamp her class. Bernard Fayd’herbe, who rode a cracking catch-me-if-you-can from a wide draw last time, is aboard again, and gets a chance to ride the Cheveley product more conservatively over the extra 200m. Candice Bass-Robinson’s Magical Wonderland finished a well-beaten second to Snowdance in the Fillies Championship, but like most of the opposition was caught napping by Fayd’herbe’s creative approach to beating the draw. There must be a question mark over the daughter of What A Winter staying the mile, but

she was a 2yo champion and could find her best foot. Dennis Drier’s Gr1 Thekwini Stakes winner Lady In Black ran from a similarly poor draw in the feature won by Snowdance after a three month rest and was a well beaten 8,55 lengths back. The champion daughter of Dynasty has proven she stays the mile and should relish the fair summer course long run-in from her better draw.

PE Raider A runner who adds a fascinating dimension to the puzzle is Gr3 Starling Stakes winner Via Seattle, who travels from PE to take her place from the 11 gate. The Ascot Stud bred filly hammered Folk Dance on Charity Mile day and the latter endorsed the quality of the form with a facile victory in Sunday’s Gr3 Fillies Mile at Turffontein. If fresh after her travels, Via Seattle looks to take on the big guns and warrants every respect. Rockin Russian enjoys the undeniable advantage of Piere Strydom but the drawback of a shocking draw out wide. The daughter of Seventh Rock took on

the boys under a paper weight in the Cape Classic, but dropped out after running handily. She is not far behind Lady In Black on her best juvenile form and comes into the quartet calculations. Mike de Kock raider Silver Thursday runs at level weights with Via Seattle after getting 2kgs and a 1,75 length beating in the Starling Stakes. The daughter of Silvano will very definitely prefer the mile here and she cannot be ignored. Glen Kotzen’s bargain buy Too Phat To Fly ran a 6,50 length fourth in the Western Cape Fillies Championship and is a consistent earner who is always thereabouts. Whether she has the class to take on this lot is questionable, but she cannot be discounted as a quartet kicker. Her stablemate, the Gr3 The Debutante winner Princess Peach has failed to recapture her best 2yo form and tries a mile for the first time.

Big Heart Elusive Heart never got into the race when beaten 11 lengths by Snowdance in the feature last time. Coincidentally, she beat the Snaith galloper in receipt of a kilo at her penultimate run. The daughter of Elusive Fort gets the value added services of Richard Fourie and we are inclined to give her another chance – although there is no guarantee that she will stay the mile.

The Listed Irridescence Stakes winner Rose In Bloom has drawn wide but was not disgraced when staying on for third and 6 lengths off Snowdance in the Western Cape Fillies Championship last time. She looks inferior to, but not far behind, the likes of Magical Wonderland and the distance could be the major leveller in her case. Her Joey Ramsden stablemate, the well-bred Fresnaye, has pulled the pole position draw and despite winning her last start in a handicap beating older gallopers, looks well held on her penultimate jump when beaten 9 lengths by Snowdance.

Held The Australian-bred Oh Susanna looks well held by Snowdance and Magical Wonderland on her last few starts and looks the junior of the Justin Snaith duo. She also has to overcome a wide draw. Midnight Moonlight booked her place here with a good win over 1700m in a rather modest handicap last time out. A well-bought winner of two of her four starts, she takes on the best of her generation and cannot be fancied. The beautifully bred and highly regarded Love Supreme has won two of her three starts comfortably and could follow in the footsteps of her dual Gr1 winning dam, who ran third in this race in 2011. This is her stiffest test to date, but she remains a wildcard amongst the proven girls.

The grey Lanark has drawn wide out but looks progressive with 3 wins from her 6 starts. She now takes on much stronger but has done little wrong to date and could be anything. Anton Marcus rides Rings And Things, who steps into the major league and up to a mile – a distance she looks likely to enjoy. She has won once in eight starts and has not suggested star potential yet.

Classic All told, a classic contest awaits us. The competition amongst the likes of Snowdance, who will be watched closely this time, the visiting Lady In Black and Via Seattle, and local star Magical Wonderland, looks tight. Have we seen the best of Rockin Russian and Love Supreme? Don’t miss this one!

The classy Attenborough caught the eye last time

Go Wide Here WAYNE MARKS

The Captain Al gelding Search Party is back to defend his R400 000 Gr2 Merchants crown at Kenilworth on Saturday. The handicapper hasn’t been kind on him – he carries 7,5kgs more than he did last year. But he’s improved – and should still be competitive.

Gr2 CAPE MERCHANTS at Kenilworth this Saturday

earch Party won the Gr2 Durban Merchants and was a dual Gr1 runner-up in the Durban season - so it’s hardly surprising to note that the 5yo has rocketed from a 92 to 113. He beat Glen Puller’s Silicone Valley a half length last year and that 7yo meets now him on an 8kg swing at the weights. To be fair, Silicone Valley has consistently run places and his form hardly compares with the Crawford runner. But he caught the eye with a smashing late run from miles back when getting to within 1,15 lengths of Our Mate Art in the Matchem and gets the benefit of the services of Anthony Delpech on Saturday. So while winless in over a year, it

could be Silicone Valley’s chance on Saturday at the weight turnaround. But it’s a handicap and remains wide open. Search Party’s stablemates Al Mariachi and Black Cat Back are both decent sorts. The preference is for the former, as he showed his wellbeing and ran on well behind Sergeant Hardy in his last start. Topweighted Marinaresco won the July at his penultimate start and comes in after a break of 18 weeks. He did run Silicone Valley to 1,75 lengths over the course and distance a year ago, but the Puller galloper is better off and more effective this trip. That said, Mike Bass won this with Pocket Power! So anything is possible. Brutal Force failed to spark on his return run but this course and

Gr2 Cape Merchants

distance winner is all class and very capable of an upset. Justin Snaith’s Sergeant Hardy loves the track and trip and ran a gutsy race on his return to beat Bold Respect at the end of October. He meets Search Party on a kilo better terms for a length beating, so could hold him again. The 8yo Tevez is a high-class sprinter but was not persevered with last time and needs to find his best form. He has won this race and run second twice, but may be past his best. Anton Marcus partners with the Captain Al colt Always In Charge, who was badly in need of it when fading out in the Matchem. He is a Gr1 winner and thus cannot be discarded. Andre Nel’s Percival has the

looks of a horse capable of winning this. The 5yo son of Var carries a handy 52kgs and is bang in form. He is effective over the course and distance too. Piere Strydom is an interesting jockey booking for the Western Winter gelding Attenborough. After a quiet KZN season, the 4yo stayed on steadily behind Sergeant Hardy in his prep and should be a lot fitter come Saturday. He is also 1,5kgs better off with the Sergeant at the weights. Bishop’s Bounty was 6,75 lengths behind stablemate Sergeant Hardy and is only a kilo better off. He was highly regarded early on and can improve. Cuban Emerald won his last start over the course and distance but returns from a 15 week break and is likely to need it.

Top class 2yo of last season Dutch Philip comes in with a handy galloping weight of 52kgs and reverts to sprinting after disappointing in the Cape Classic last time. He has top course and distance form and is worth including. Heartland could find this a bit sharp.

Gr2 GREEN POINT STAKES at Kenilworth this Saturday

The Miracle Of Flight

Champion Legal Eagle returns to Kenilworth

WAYNE MARKS

Dual SA Horse Of The Year Legal Eagle steps out at Kenilworth on Saturday where he defends his title in the R400 000 Gr2 Green Point Stakes, en route to the L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate and Sun Met in January 2018.

he lightly raced Sean Tarry-trained 6yo had his customary sprint pipeopener at home three weeks ago and he again acquitted himself well – conceding Naafer 7,5kgs and getting to within 2,30 lengths of the De Kock 3yo over the 1160m. Naafer subsequently ran a cracking second in Sunday’s Gr2 Merchants behind The Thinker. Legal Eagle beat Marinaresco and Captain America in the Green Point last term – and meets the Captain on a kilo better terms for that 4,65 length beating this time around. The 2015 Green Point Stakes winner Captain America will come on with the benefit of his last run when under a length behind Edict Of Nantes, but is likely to be chasing Legal Eagle’s tail again. This gutsy campaigner never runs a bad race. His Champions Cup winning stablemate Sail South caught the eye on his season debut – he is a 7yo already – when storming through to

get within a half length of Edict Of Nantes. The son of Sail From Seattle continues to surprise friend and foe and even though beaten 8 lengths in this race last year, can be expected to chase place cheques with honesty, again. The lightly raced Gold Standard is the dark horse in the seven horse field. The son of Trippi has run only once since going fourth in the Sun Met behind Whisky Baron. That was in the Matchem, where he was forced to ease late in the race – he is very highly regarded and his rematch with Edict Of Nantes, who he beat in the Selangor Cup last term, makes for a fascinating race. Australian-bred Our Mate Art disappointed at times as a 3yo but he is unbeaten in two starts as a 4yo and has been acknowledged by the handicapper on the official ratings. He faces a serious test at these weights but the mile will be right up his street and his connections will get a good idea of where he is headed this season.

Piere Strydom made it a winning first time aboard dual Gr1 winner Edict Of Nantes in his seasonal debut last time and the exciting combination take their next step up the ladder here. There is no question that the 4yo son of Count Dubois will enjoy the mile on the summer course and takes on the champion Legal Eagle for the first time. Copper Force beat Milton last time but looks held by Our Mate Art on the Matchem Stakes result, where he was beaten 3,40 lengths. He is a still improving 4yo and could run into the place money. It is difficult looking past Legal Eagle as the proven champion – but the 4yo’s Edict Of Nantes and Gold Standard will keep him honest.

Raymond Danielson celebrates his first Summer Cup success as Liege romps home

Gr1 SANSUI SUMMER CUP at Turffontein last Sunday

Cometh the hour, cometh the man! SA champion trainer Sean Tarry once again delivered the big race goods when his longshot Liege stayed on resolutely to score a first Gr1 success in the rain delayed R2 million Sansui Summer Cup at Turffontein.

n a day of topsy turvy results, Raymond Danielson delivered the enigmatic son of champion sire Dynasty, and a horse Tarry had not expected to get in ahead of his fairer sex stablemate Witchcraft, at the right moment for a big score. Tarry has endured a quieter start

than usual this season, but summed things up beautifully in the post-race interview – saying, ‘If you can’t be good all the time, be good at the right time!’ Liege was the least fancied of the Tarry Summer Cup attack and after his dull Victory Moon effort, he was freely available at long double digit odds.

Gr2 DINGAANS at Turffontein last Sunday

The 19 horse field jumped on ground posted as good to soft with a pen reading of 24 and it was Crowd Pleaser, Let It Rain and Girl On The Run who set the gallop, with Liege settled in midfield. In the run for home, Girl On The Run continued to gallop powerfully as Orchid Island flattered briefly, with Fort Ember scooting up the inside rail.

Bright Flash, Gordon!

JC PHOTOS

I Anthony Delpech rides a powerful finish to keep Monks Hood at his task

At the 450m marker, Raymond Danielson glanced to his inside as he drove Liege through a gap to grab the advantage. With many labouring in a serious test of stamina, Liege went on too powerfully for the game Fort Ember to score by 2,25 lengths in a time of 124,40 secs. Muzi Yeni rode for his life to get the recent Victory Moon Stakes runner-up Coral Fever up for third, with Derby Trial winner Pagoda finishing with his customary late dash for fourth. Victory Moon Stakes winner Girl

On The Run was prominent for a long way and stayed on for fifth. The 2016 SA Triple Crown star Abashiri was the last horse to earn a cheque, banking R10 000 for his eighth place when finishing 4,25 lengths off the winner. The gallant 8yo Master Sabina, bidding for his third straight win in the race, ran a distance stone last and looks likely to be retired – with earnings of close on R4 million, he owes his connections nothing. Sean Tarry, whose last Summer Cup winner dates back to Aslan in 2009, was pleased with the win for two of South Africa’s most powerful owners. “We were disappointed with his run in the Victory Moon and there was no explanation for that. Thanks to Markus (Jooste) and Chris (Van Niekerk). Well done on the big decision to delay the meeting – it took courage on the part of all involved. It is sad for the sponsors and plenty of people had plenty to say. But all’s well that ends well.” Jockey Raymond Danielson, whose previous Summer Cup best was third on French Navy, rode a well judged race. “He felt so good today – so much better than at home. He was fit and well. Thanks so much to Mr Tarry and Mr Van Niekerk. It’s a privilege to ride these kinds of horses.” A R650 000 Cape Ready To Run Sale graduate , the Maine Chance bred Liege is a son of Dynasty (Fort Wood) out of the eight time winner Lyrical Linda (Jallad). He has won 6 races with 4 places from 22 starts and stakes of R1 885 000. Liege, whose previous biggest win was the 2016 Gr3 Jubilee Handicap, does not look likely to bid for the R1 million Summer Cup-Met double bonus. Spare a thought for Summer Cup King Geoff Woodruff. On the cusp of a fifth successive victory in this race, his attack was cut down to two runners after the scratching of Banner Hill, but Pagoda carried the flag with honour to run a cracking fourth. The Guv will be back.

Trainer Alistair Gordon broke a personal drought and enjoyed the distinction of saddling the first KZN horse to win the R500 000 Gr2 Dingaans in thirty years when Querari’s son Monks Hood confirmed his early promise with a gutsy victory at Turffontein.

t has been a dismal season for the Summerveld based Gordon, who broke his duck with an unlikely Gr2 success for KZN. The last horse from that province to win the Dingaans was Sealegs all the way back in 1987. After the Selangor Cup jolt of a few weeks ago, the 3yo crop remains under the spotlight and Monks Hood played himself into contention with a meritorious away victory, to show that he looks set to go on and fulfil his promise. After Loyal Lieutenant had led for 1200m of the mile trip, Delpech shrewdly kept Monks Hood out of traffic down the outside and moved him up gradually as Ideal Secret and then Vacquero looked dangerous. Finishing with a clear passage down the centre outside of the track, Monks Hood finished strongly to resist a dazzling late challenge

from Seerite to clinch the honours by a head in a time of 99,10 secs. Seerite, a Bush Hill Stud-bred son of Curved Ball, came from stone last to go down narrowly – he looks an untapped talent and a horse to watch on this run! Vacquero stayed on well for third a further 1,15 lengths back, with the luckless Flying Free running a cracker from his wide draw after traffic issues. The fancied Big Bear never showed and ran seventh and 2,75 lengths off, while the Cape Derby candidate Like A Panther showed pace and finished a length behind the Tarry runner. His stablemate, the newsmaking Pietro Mascagni finished 12 lengths downfield in what must be regarded as a disappointing show for his connections. Anthony Delpech, who rode the

winner for his employers, said that they were concerned about the altitude with the racing delayed. “His last run was disappointing but he doesn’t seem to enjoy the poly. This was more like his ability,” he added. Trainer Alistair Gordon was thrilled with the win. “It’s been a tough time – thanks to Jehan Malherbe who helped me pick him at the sale – and to Mary (Slack) for allowing me to train him. Anthony gave him a peach of a ride,” said the veteran conditioner. Wilgerbosdrift’s Mary Slack said she was thrilled for Alistair Gordon to have another good horse. “He is lovely horse. He was from a small stud and we thought few would notice him at sale. But everybody did so he wasn”t a cheapie. But he looks like he could develop into a pretty good horse,” she added. Bred by Arne and the late Ben Botha, Monks Hood is a son of Querari (Oasis Dream) out of the three-time winner Amber Boquet (Camden Park). A R375 000 National Yearling Sale buy, he has won 2 races with 4 places from 6 starts and stakes of R439 625. He also banked the BSA Added Value Stakes Bonus of R102 500.

t the time of his passing in 2014, Tiger Ridge’s progeny had won $32 000 000 in prize money and he looks to be a serious broodmare sire in the making – with Folk Dance providing him with a double on the afternoon, winning the Gr3 Fillies Mile. On a day of rocky results, the popular topweighted Nother Russia showed great courage under regular pilot Craig Zackey as she dug deep to resist a flying late assault from the Judpot mare, Bi Pot. After Nother Russia cruised into the lead at the 400m, she came under serious fire and her win by a neck in a time of 99,94 secs was top drawer stuff. Third placed She’s A Giver and fourth placed Sylvan On Fire ran

terrific races to finish under a length off the winner. Sylvan On Fire had to be switched at a crucial time up the straight, and she may well have gotten a lot closer. Young Craig Zackey, who is headed to Mauritius this weekend, had fought a bout of flu during the week but wouldn’t miss his ride on Nother Russia for the world, said: “I’m excited. She still needed the run but got up. She’s saving her best for Cape Town!” “This is the rewarding bit of racing, seeing the champions in action,” said Mike de Kock in praise of Nother Russia. “She’s a favourite in the stable and mind you her mother was one of our favourites too,” he added. Mike added: “Nother Russia was a gift from the great Mother Russia, who sadly died after passing on only

one foal to us, but the foal she left is a Grade 1 winner. She is worth her weight in gold as a broodmare. “Thanks to the team at Mauritzfontein. Nother Russia has had two spells there and has come back better after a break twice.” Jessica Slack, who races Nother Russia in Mauritzfontein’s famous black-and-yellow silks, said: “ I can’t begin to express my excitement and gratitude to the stable and to Mum (Mary Slack) for breeding her. And thanks to Craig Zackey for a professional ride. He is always so cool and collected.” Nother Russia was bred by Wilgerbosdrift and was another winner on the day for Tiger Ridge (Storm Cat) after Folk Dance’s success in the Fillies Mile earlier. The winner is out of the champion thirteen-time winning racemare Mother Russia (Windrush). She was purchased by Form Bloodstock on behalf of Jessica Slack for R550 000 off the National Yearling Sale. She has won 7 races with 5 places from 12 starts and stakes of R1 752 875.

A What Thought Did Gr2 MERCHANTS at Turffontein last Sunday

On a day of mixed fortunes for his yard, trainer Johan Janse van Vuuren picked up his maiden Gr2 Merchants success courtesy of the Visionaire gelding, The Thinker.

asy to back at 12-1 in a wide open handicap, the lightly raced The Thinker showed that he could be a sprinter to follow this season when he stormed through from some lengths off the speed for an impressive victory. The only winner on the multiple feature programme in the SA champion owner silks of the Mayfair Speculators, The Thinker rewarded those that had seen his hard luck run when under a length off Graduation Day in the Golden Loom Handicap at his last outing. With Naafer and Romi’s Boy going quickly early on, Donovan Mansour had The Thinker nearer

last early on but gradually built him up into contention. At the 300m marker, Naafer galloping all alone down the inside looked like he could be a serious challenger, but The Thinker had them all ice cold and went on to score by 1,10 lengths over the game 3yo Naafer in second. No time was published. Amazing Strike improved again to snare third ahead of Captain Aldo and the late finishing Talktothestars. Topweighted Bull Valley (5 lengths), Lebelo Sprint winner Rivarine (5,50 lengths) and the favourite Graduation Day (6 lengths) never showed. Trainer Johan Janse van Vuuren was a relieved man.

“After Square The Circle was beaten earlier and Kilauea ran such a bad race in the Magnolia, I was worried. I knew The Thinker would be the watershed – he was the horse putting up good work at home. Thankfully he produced that on the track!” Jockey Donovan Mansour was over the moon. “I was unlucky last time in the Golden Loom and I knew that nothing that ran there could beat him today,” he added. Bred by Summerhill Stud, The Thinker is a 4yo son of Gr1 King’s Bishop Stakes winner Visionaire (Grand Slam) out of the three-time winner Radiant Lass (Northern Guest). A R180 0000 CTS Johannesburg Ready To Run Sale graduate, The Thinker has won 5 races with 1 place from 11 starts and stakes of R590 050.

Lucky Houdalakis and Muzi Yeni opened the 2017 Sansui Summer Cup feature programme when the grey Pathfork filly My Friend Lee outstayed her thirteen rivals on the sticky going to win the R250 000 Gr3 Magnolia Handicap at Turffontein.

shrewd change of training programme with the emphasis on speed paid handsome dividends as the handily weighted 4yo registered her first stakes success at any price. With half the field carrying 53kgs or less, the natural lightweight Winning Form-sponsored Yeni had the choice of rides and, despite feeling that one or two could have his beating, stayed loyal to a filly who has been good to him. Settled in midfield as Spring Wonder and Wrecking Ball showed plenty of toe, My Friend Lee was driven hard at the 400m as she looked to have plenty to do and a good six lengths to make up. As the leaders tired, the gaps opened and My Friend Lee burst through as favourite Spring Wonder appeared to dig her toes in and didn’t quite go on with it. Hard ridden, My Friend Lee powered home to beat Arissa, who was returning from a 37 week break, by 1,20 lengths in a time of 68,73 secs. Lady Starlett, who had jumped from pole position, charged out of the pack for third and kept Spring Wonder out of the trifecta as she finished with

a sustained effort. It was good to see that the course was running fair, with the draws represented favourably across the spectrum. Muzi Yeni was elated at a thrilling big day success: “She’s been good to me. They didn’t run her off her feet – they put some good speed work into her.I hit the front sooner than I wanted,” he said. Lucky Houdalakis, who only had two runners on the day said that he couldn’t find any races between 1200m and 1400m: “So we changed her training programme. The rain helped – they went quick and they came back to us,” said the former top jockey. The winner races in a partnership of Bryn Ressell and Keith Waterston – the latter picking up his first ‘trophy’ after over 50 winners. The Highlands bred My Friend Lee is a daughter of Pathfork (Distorted Humor) out of Sister Sheila (West Man). A R300 000 KZN Yearling Sale graduate, she was the top-priced lot on day 2 of that sale when purchased by T&L Racing Stables My Friend Lee is a winner of 6 races with 6 places from 17 starts and stakes of R548 125.

RA Double For Soma

Gr3 FILLIES MILE at Turffontein last Sunday

Punters are forgiving creatures. After the tote chaos of 24 hours earlier, the betting public climbed into the Turffontein Sunday exotic with vigour as the Pick 6 pool surpassed the target and hit close on a handsome R6,2m.

aturday’s Saftote woes were quickly forgotten, and it was Gavin Lerena and Paul Peter who came to the party in the Pick 6 opener. The combination added some stability and sanity to the Summer Cup day proceedings after the Magnolia Handicap shock of a half hour earlier that saw the Place Accumulator opening with a minimum dividend of R11-50. The Gr1 placed Tiger Ridge filly Folk Dance had plenty of supporters and stayed on too strongly for her rivals to win the R275 000 Gr3 Fillies Mile and register a favourable opening leg victory. A popular first-choice for many

backers, Folk Dance was nurtured along four lengths off the modest pace set by Cashel Palace and Roy’s Riviera. The boom Australian-bred San Fermin lagged behind after a tardy jump from her wide draw, as the freestriding Cashel Palace led Roy’s Riviera and Mar Del Sur. Into the home chase Gavin Lerena gradually gave Folk Dance her head as Cashel Palace continued to gallop strongly, with San Fermin flattering briefly. At the 250m, Folk Dance took command and drew away to beat the strong finishing Aurelia Cotta by an emphatic 3 lengths in a time of 100,15 secs. The pacesetting Cashel Palace was

a little one-paced late but stayed on for third. The disappointment of the race was the Mike Azzie-trained San Fermin, who enjoyed plenty of support, but failed to go on with her run when asked by Grant van Niekerk. She must be worth another chance. Winning jockey Gavin Lerena, who said he had only pulled his whip to avoid any late surprises, reported that Folk Dance has a big heart and a good action. “ Last last time she did it the hard way from the draw. Today she showed what she is made of. A smart effort.” Trainer Paul Peter said that he was grateful for the win after two feature disappointments with a filly he rates highly. Folk Dance has won 4 of her 6 starts with 2 places and took her stakes earnings to R487 500. Bred by Wilgerbosdrift and Mauritzfontein, the R100 000 National Yearling Sale buy is a daughter of Tiger Ridge (Storm Cat) out of Liberty Dance (Fort Wood).

The Fort Wood mare Fortissima rounded off Sunday’s Summer Cup feature programme at Turffontein when she registered her second consecutive success in the R250 000 Listed Racing Association Handicap. The Joey Soma mare is a gallant stayer and she repeated last year’s feat – with the exception that the race was a Gr3 in 2016 and has been downgraded to Listed status. Anthony Delpech had the 5yo settled back of midfield and she mowed them down in the straight to win going away. Fortissima ran on powerfully to hold off the MR 50-rated Eastern Pearl by 2,75 lengths in a time of 210,62 secs. The consistent Save The Rhino stayed on steadily in third. KZN visitor Run Rhino Run, who set horseracing social media light last month with a runaway Greyville success, found nothing extra and was tailed off. Bred by Klawervlei Stud, Fortissima is a daughter of the deceased Fort Wood (Sadlers Wells) out of Synchronize (Al Mufti). She was purchased off the 2014 CTS Johannesburg Ready To Run Sale where trainer Joey Soma went to R270 000 to acquire her. Fortissima has registered 5 wins with 6 places from her 18 starts and took her earnings to R839 450.

November Stakes

Fairview Friday

Black Friday! Popular 7yo Gogettesheriff failed to live up to the Black Friday value mania that swept South Africa when he walked out of the starting stalls and ran stone last in the R110 000 November Stakes at Fairview. The historically delinquent starter caught punters short by losing many lengths at the start – and never getting into the race. With Stratocruiser stretching them out front, there was still hope that Gogettesheriff could do some catching up – but it’s difficult giving so much start over the extended sprint, and it was left to Callan Murray to produce the goods on Tara Laing’s Miracle Bureau. The former Joburg based gelding, who races in the Mayfair Speculators silks, has done well in his seven months in the Eastern Cape and powered home to register his second local win and give Tara Laing and Callan Murray the first leg of a winning double. He beat the late finishing Our Icon by 3,50 lengths in a time of 82,43 secs, with Kingvoldt rounding off the trifecta a short head away in third. A R500 000 Cape Premier Yearling Sale Book 2 graduate, the Klawervlei Stud bred Miracle Bureau is a son of Trippi (End Sweep) out of the six-time winner Blow Your Mind (National Emblem). The 5yo is a winner of 5 races with 9 places from 22 starts and stakes of R388 725.

WCET Charity Race Day Breaks Records The Western Cape Equine Trust (WCET) race day at Kenilworth on Saturday proved a huge success for the Cape’s rehoming charity. Owner Etienne Braun went to R52 000 to secure the trip to the Epsom Derby (generously sponsored by Kuda Insurance, WCET Chairman Ken Truter and Investec), but with cricket legend Robin Jackman as MC, there was lively bidding for all the auctions items including a game drive at Arc-en-Ciel, fine wines, fine jewellery and more. A record 220 lunch guests supported the raffle with enthusiasm. There was a specially created menu by Dish Catering, wonderful wines for the table courtesy of Avontuur, Vondeling and Antonij Rupert Wines and generous race sponsorships from Cape Thoroughbred

Sales, Drakenstein Stud, Betting World, Vaughan Marshall Racing, Mayfair Stallions, Klawervlei Stud, Snaith Racing and Ridgemont Racing. The biggest endorsement of all was the personal support, as leading breeders, trainers and owners turned out in force to support the initiative of responsible rehoming and by the time the last guests were waved home, the Charity had collected a phenomenal R375 000 - up R115 000 on last year - for this extraordinary cause. Ken Truter commented: “My committee and I are extremely pleased with this result and would like to thank everybody for their support and generosity.”

Guineas Penalty For De Kock

The National Horseracing Authority has confirmed that at an Inquiry held in Johannesburg on Friday 24 November 2017, Trainer Mike de Kock was charged with a contravention of Rule 73.2.4.

his arose in that he was the trainer of the horse Janoobi from which a specimen was taken, after it had participated in and won the 7th race run at the Greyville Racecourse on 7 May 2017, and which disclosed upon analysis the presence of Dexamethasone, a prohibited substance in terms of the Rules of The National Horseracing Authority. Mr de Kock did not appear before the Inquiry Board, however, had accepted, mea culpa, prior to the Mike de Kock Inquiry, that the rule had been contravened. The Inquiry Board entered a plea of not guilty on behalf of Mr de Kock and after considering the evidence of the matter and the submissions of the NHA, found Mr de Kock guilty of the charge. In deciding what penalty to impose, the Inquiry Board, after considering representations of the NHA, imposed a penalty of a fine of R23 000 of which R8 000 is wholly suspended for a period of 2 years, provided Mr de Kock is not found guilty of a contravention of Rule 73.2.4 during that period. Furthermore, in terms of Rule 72.3.2, Janoobi is disqualified from the abovementioned race and the provisions of Rule 67.7.8 shall apply mutatis mutandis. Robert Bloomberg as legal representative for trainer Mike De Kock says: “The Press Release is unfortunately very selective in its wording and does not fairly portray certain very salient and important facts. Following representations made by us which included full disclosure of all veterinary and related records pertaining to the horse Janoobi, and following agreement reached thereafter, it was agreed by both parties to conduct the Inquiry in absentia. Mike acknowledged guilt ONLY as the responsible trainer in terms of the strict liability rule, but NOT to any administration, prior knowledge or condonation thereof, nor was Mike present in the lead-up to the race in question. Mike’s horses have been tested in around 10 different racing jurisdictions worldwide and his reputation and integrity is untarnished and of paramount importance to him” Read about BHA's Strict Liability policy on page 16.

The World One For Tote - No Explanations Watches Mauritius The Girls Or Apologies he annual end-of-season celebration, which will be held this weekend to wrap up the 2017 season, is a festive occasion which captures the imagination of the racing-mad island - and the inclusion of a former champion in Jeff Lloyd is bound to ignite plenty of interest. The jockeys invited are: (unconfirmed & subject to change) Hayley Turner O.B.E (UK) Pierre Charles Boudot (France) Mickael Barzalona (France) Maxime Guyon (France) Matthew Chadwick (Hong Kong) Imran Chisty (India) Jeffrey Lloyd (Australia) Craig Zackey (South Africa) Robbie Fradd (Australia) Luke Nolen (Australia) Elione Chaves (Brazil) The Mauritius champion jockey is also included in the event. Imran Chisty moved level with Steven Arnold at the top of the Jockeys’ standings after Saturday’s meeting. In a groundbreaking development, Mauritian Horse Racing will be broadcast live in Australia and New Zealand for the first time.

Gold Circle

Former SA Champion apprentice Craig Zackey, who partnered Nother Russia to win Sunday’s Gr2 Ipi Tombe Stakes, joins an exciting array of international riders for the 2017 International Jockeys Weekend at the Champ de Mars.

Craig Zackey Sky Racing TV will show the races live and punters will have the opportunity to place bets on ‘pool betting’ and at ‘fixed odds’. Tabcorp Holdings Ltd is by far the largest betting operator in Australia and New Zealand. They offer two types of betting across three channels (Sky Racing). These channels have more than 2 million subscribers in Australia and operate through more than 5,000 counters. In addition, the racing will also be shown on Equida – France, and betting on the 5th race on Saturday and Sunday, which are the main events, will be taken throughout the French territory.

What are we missing about producing female jockeys in South Africa? With not a single lady rider currently gracing our jockey ranks, South African horseracing has dipped badly after a golden age of some competitive fairer sex riders.

This observation follows the news that Josephine Gordon has become only the second female jockey to ride 100 winners in a year in Britain after guiding Thunderbolt Rocks to victory at Wolverhampton last Saturday. Gordon, 24, won for Newmarket trainer Hugo Palmer, and follows Hayley Turner to the landmark. Turner reached her century in 2008. Gordon reached 99 wins last week at Chelmsford but needed a further 20 races to reach the milestone. "In 2008 when Hayley got 100 winners I was sat in school and looking up to Hayley thinking: 'Wow that's amazing'. I would never have expected for myself to then go on and hit those heights," she said. "Hayley was my idol when I was a kid so I'm very happy to emulate her and reach these goals that I've set myself." Where did we go wrong?

A still unexplained IT related crisis hit the national totalisator on a forgettable day for South African racing on Saturday, where the Sansui Summer Cup was scheduled to take pride of place.

he racing gods may well initially have thought the rain had done them a dirty – with heavy downpours on Friday night and Saturday morning saturating the Turffontein Standside track, making the bend and the pullup areas treacherous. Protracted discussions were held between officials, trainers and jockeys to try to save the Saturday meet, headlined by Johannesburg’s biggest horse race. Two horses were galloped from the 1400m mark to test the surface and several inspections of the turf were undertaken. Eventually a decision to postpone was taken shortly after 14h00. In hindsight, maybe Mother Nature was being kind as had the Turffontein meeting gone ahead, what a disaster that could have been for tote turnover figures! Black Friday became Black Saturday for thousands of Saftote punters with the Kenilworth third race showing ‘provisional’ and payouts on the first two races

apparently reversed. This naturally had a knock-on effect on Kenilworth Pick 6 and Jackpot turnovers, with the ‘field’ leg of the Summer Cup already a party spoiler for many. With the horses already in the parade ring, trainers and jockeys were also forced to stand down for the Kenilworth fifth race, which was delayed to try and get the tote engine started in advance of the Jackpot. The Sporting Post was contacted by punters requesting clarity on missing payouts and questions are naturally raised about the integrity of end dividends in a system that hardly encourages customer trust. While racing until 19h30 on a Sunday evening is not everybody’s cuppa tea, the meeting was completed without incident with the Pick 6 pool target of R6 million being reached. As we go to print there have been no explanations or apologies tendered by Saftote. What lessons will be learnt from Saturday?

WHERE WOULD YOU RATHER BE IN DECEMBER?

SPORTING POST â&#x20AC;¢ FriDAY 1st - SUNDAY 3rd DECEMBER 2017

SPORTING POST • FRIDAY 1st - SUNDAY 3rd DECEMBER 2017

African Night Sky

frican Night Sky was born and bred at Highlands Farms Stud in Robertson. A son of multiple champion sire, Dynasty and out of a quirky imported daughter of Cozzene named Starzene. Starzene has always been something of a character, which in horse speak means the type of horse that requires a little more patience and skill than most. Highlands relates that in her younger days, stud manager Mike Sharkey was the only person she would allow to handle her and he was also the only person she would tolerate at foaling time. Although she has mellowed a little with age, it is only a little and she still leads the grooms a merry dance when she needs to be caught and is the only mare that always wears a halter. Of course brilliance is rarely boring! As a yearling, the plain bay colt was offered for sale at the Cape Premier Yearling Sale, where he caught the eye of Far End Farm’s Jane Thomas, adviser to Fred Crabbia and on her advice, Fred went to R850,000 to secure him. The next piece of the puzzle came in the form of champion trainer Justin Snaith, who Fred selected to train his new acquisition.

bigger game plan in mind. Jono explains, “Last year Fred was lucky enough to have two nice 3yo’s in Zodiac Ruler and African Night Sky. We suggested sending Zodiac Ruler to Durban and keeping African Night Sky at home, as horses that do well in the Winter Series usually go on to do well in the Met. Fred liked the idea and it’s turned out to be a great decision. Durban has been having problems with their tracks and it’s a place you can run into huge problems in terms of soundness, so it was great that African Night Sky stayed here. He has been raced lightly on soft ground, so he’s sound, he’s learned to be a professional and settles well.”

The Jockey The Trainer Blonde, clean cut, young, and ambitious, as the sons of Chris and Sue Snaith, Justin and Jonathan were quite literally born into racing. The two boys grew up watching their father carve a niche for himself as a show-jumper, hurdle racer and ultimately South Africa’s youngest licensed trainer at the age of 22, while their mom, Sue, cleaned up on the showing circuit. Justin and Jono both rode in the Cape Hunt amateur racing circuit (Justin held a record for 11 straight wins) and eventually followed their parents into the training ranks. Starting out with 22 horses in August 2000, they have built their string into one of the most formidable in the country. While the horses go out under ‘S.J. Snaith’, it is very much a team effort including brother Jonathan as well as Chris and Sue as back-up. Team Snaith – The Second Generation - already has a National Championship title, two July sashes and a Queen’s Plate win to their credit. They equalled the SA record for 7 winners on a single card in Port Elizabeth on 12 May 2013 and went one better on Met day 2016, by going home with a staggering 8 winners – and possible world record and described by a leading racing publication as “embarrassing butt-kicking dominance on a scale few of us have witnessed in any sporting arena.” With credentials like that, it wasn’t hard to see why African Night Sky was earmarked for their Philippi base, but Jono Snaith explains anyway. “Fred and Manuela have been so loyal to Justin and I over the years and it is no secret that we are huge Dynasty fans having trained some of his produce like Bela-Bela, It’s my Turn (for Fred), Legislate and Futura. We had It’s My Turn (2016 Cape Derby winner) for him at the time, so when it came to African Night Sky, Fred thankfully decided to send the son of Dynasty to us. We got a call from Emma that he would be coming to us

and we were delighted.”

Some fine tuning African Night Sky inherited some of his dam’s fire and was gelded before he even went into training to help him settle down. He was still not the most straightforward of customers and it took some experimenting with his equipment as well as frequent beach outings with his trainer to help soothe and settle the young horse. Stable stalwart Craig du Plooy was in the saddle for African Night Sky’s first two starts (of which he won both). “Craig is quite a good judge and always said this was going to be a Gr1 horse one day,” says Jono. “I don’t think he’s far wrong. The way he won the Winter Series was very impressive and being a Dynasty, I don’t think we’ve seen the best of him yet.” Craig was going to stay with the horse, but in one of those twists of fate, injured his hand in a race riding accident and the ride passed to Richard Fourie for 2 starts. Craig rode him one more time before Bernard Fayd’herbe returned from his Dubai season and took over the ride, partnering African Night Sky for his 2017 Cape Winter Series campaign.

Cape Winter Series It is a big commitment to keep a talent like that in the Cape for the winter, rather than chasing the big purses of the KZN Champions Season, and Jono acknowledges that African Night Sky is the sort of horse they could have run in the July with 53kgs. However, they always had a

On his return from his international campaign, Bernard Fayd’herbe worked hard to forge a partnership with his precious young mount, helping him gain confidence and enthusiasm for racing. “You’ll see, in all his races, I’ve never used a stick on him. He tries so hard, I didn’t want him to get to the races and worry about anything.” The strategy paid dividends.

Winter Wonder After convincing wins in the 1600m Winter Guineas and 1800m Winter Classic, African Night Sky nearly didn’t make it to the starting gate for the 2400m Winter Derby on 24 June 2017. Jono explains, “African Night Sky’s conformation is not the best – because he’s a little narrow in front, he can tend to bang himself in work. Right before the Derby, he banged himself quite badly and we didn’t think we’d make the last leg. Fred was very good and said rather don’t take

a chance and focus on the bigger things to come, but with the help of the beach, we got him sound and he actually won the race easily in the end, which was a big relief.” Despite the anxious moments he says, “It was a really exciting time for the stable and it was definitely the highlight of the Cape winter season for us.” The victory made him the first horse to sweep the series since Pocket Power. There are a number of other angles to the story adding a bit of magic, including the fact that 2017 was the first year the Cape Winter Series was sponsored by Highlands Stud, making it particularly special that African Night Sky was born and bred there. Bernard Fayd’herbe rode Pocket Power to his historic Cape Winter Series victory back in 2006 and remained ’Pocket’s jockey for the majority of his career. Therefore it’s no small compliment that Bernard has recently nailed his colours to the mast and committed to riding African Night Sky for the whole of the Cape feature season.

Road To The LQP Following his Winter Series triumph, African Night Sky had a good rest, returning to the track in a Pinnacle Plate on 11 November, finishing 2 lengths behind Edict Of Nantes. “I wouldn’t read too much into his last run,” says Jono. “With the Durbanville refurb, we hadn’t been able to gallop horses much and he needed the run badly. He wasn’t match ready and was blowing heavily when he came back. Bernard gave him a sympathetic ride, moved him up and then just ushered him home with his hands. You can expect to see a different horse next time out,” he says confidently. “We were really excited about the prospect of running him in the Jet Master Stakes on Cape Guineas day (16 December) and then on to the Queen’s Plate, but unfortunately that’s not going to happen,” he says, referring to the fact that the traditional Queen’s Plate pointer was cancelled at short notice in early November. “In the entire programme for December, there is not one race for a horse like him rated over 100 over 1400 or 1600m. We couldn’t run him even if we wanted to, so he’ll have to stay in his box.” As a workaround, the yard will be galloping African Night Sky on Saturday, 16th December and the workout will be

televised by Tellytrack.

Vote of confidence With Bernard having won an emotional 2017 Vodacom Durban July on ‘the little horse that could’, Marinaresco, it must be a pleasing shot in the arm to have one of South Africa’s premier big race riders commit to their horse for the Cape season. “It’s nice being able to have his regular pilot. Bernard rides him out to the beach regularly and they’ve formed a bond. He has done a lot of work with him and he has settled nicely with him, which is important. I think Bernard showed his faith when he jumped off Marinaresco who at WFA terms is one of the horses to beat in the Met – and offered to ride African Night Sky. We didn’t put any pressure on him. We are good friends with Brynn and Marsh, so the decision came entirely from Bernard, but we were really pleased.” While their main target is the 2018 Met, the yard is not discounting a strong Queen’s Plate effort. “The Queen’s Plate is going to be tough. There’s a lot of speed and African Night Sky is probably better over 10 furlongs as opposed to 8, but he’ll be an exciting runner in the Queen’s Plate and is definitely not out of it.” What makes the Queen’s Plate so special? “It’s the greatest WFA mile in the country. Given the distance, the conditions, plus having it run over Kenilworth’s long run in, ensures that it’s almost always won by the best horse. The mile is ideal for testing the ability of a horse. To run a mile, you need speed and a bit of stamina and it’s a distance that sprinters can get on class and stayers can also get, so it’s ideal for testing the ability of a horse and if you look at the history of the race, it’s almost always won by a champion. For me, it’s the best indicator in the country of a horse’s ability.”

History repeating? The record books reflect that Pocket Power, previously the only horse to win all three legs of the Cape Winter Series, not only went on to win the Met – three times – but also the Vodacom Durban July as well as an unprecedented four L’Ormarins Queen’s Plates. While winning the Winter Series doesn’t necessarily mark African Night Sky out as the next Pocket Power, it does make him a bit special and it is a sentiment shared by his jockey. Asked for his opinion on the horse after his Winter Derby win, Bernard said, “There’s a lot of hype about him. He’s got ability and will definitely be in the features next season. The way he won, and the way he progressed through those three races is as impressive as it gets. Normal horses don’t do that. He’s way above average.”

Strict Liability - Literally! Anti

British Racing’s ruling body got a shot across its bows late last week as it contemplated a rule change to insist on trainers being punished every time a horse tests positive for a banned substance and the trainer cannot discover how the substance got into the animal.

t is reported on the website www.theguardian.com that the British Horseracing Authority might be inviting its own destruction if it took such authoritarian action, according to the barrister who successfully argued that the trainer Philip Hobbs should not be penalised. “I think if the BHA push ahead and change the rules to say what the BHA would like them to say, they would have a mutiny on their hands,” Roderick Moore said. “They would be playing with fire. “They should remember that the BHA is not a statutory authority. It is only there because racing’s stakeholders agree to put it there and pay for it. If it began to run racing like a totalitarian regime, there would come a time when people would say: ‘Enough is enough.’” Hobbs’s Keep Moving tested positive for the antihistamine cetirizine after he was a distant third of four finishers at Ludlow in January. A thorough BHA investigation found no trace of cetirizine at Hobbs’s yard and no indication that any drug containing it had been used on the site, on horses or humans. Hobbs’s vet said Keep Moving had never had medical treatment for any condition. It has echoes of the

controversial case against Hughie Morrison, due to be heard by the BHA next month. While accepting that Hobbs had taken all reasonable precautions, the BHA insisted the disciplinary panel had been wrong to impose no penalty and appealed, saying the verdict undermined its strict liability approach to anti-doping. But the appeal board rejected that argument on Thursday, saying the strict liability regime “is in no way inconsistent with the panel’s reasoning, or ultimate decision”, which disqualified the horse and withdrew the prize money he had won. “There is not, however, strict liability as to penalty,” it added.

Escape

The BHA’s rules allows a trainer to escape penalty if the panel is persuaded the substance was not administered intentionally, by anyone, and also that the trainer took all reasonable precautions. The BHA argued those conditions would not be met if the trainer could not prove the actual source of the substance but the appeal board rejected that and said the panel could decide on the balance of probabilities that there had been no intentional administration, even

if the source remained a mystery. Jamie Stier, the BHA’s chief regulatory officer, responded by saying the rules must now be changed. “A sufficient deterrent is fundamental to the enforcement of an effective anti-doping regime in any sport and therefore it is of vital importance that the principle of strict liability is backed up with appropriate penalties,” he said. His proposed change is expected to say a trainer must be penalised for a positive test unless he or she can identify the source of the substance. But a statement from the National Trainers Federation (NTF) said it would “strongly discourage” the BHA from such a change. The NTF continued: “Far from obstructing its ability to regulate the sport, the BHA should recognise that this ruling gives trainers an incentive to ensure they apply the very best management practices to prevent their horses from being administered with or contaminated by a prohibited substance, whether in their home stables or at a racecourse. There is no such incentive if the trainer is penalised whatever the circumstances.

Nothing Changes

“It should not be forgotten that the result does not change the inevitable disqualification of the horse with serious consequences for the connections, including the trainer. This in itself is sufficient deterrent.” The BHA and the NTF have now clashed angrily on consecutive days, following Wednesday’s decision that the public must be told whenever a

horse has a wind operation. The NTF felt its submissions on the subject had been ignored and accused the BHA of “poor regulation”. Moore was sharply critical of the BHA’s reaction to defeat. He said: “A responsible regulator would pause for reflection and then consult racing’s stakeholders. This pre-prepared statement from Jamie Stier seems a toxic combination of face-saving spin and childish tantrum. The crux of the case was that the BHA hoped that the appeal board would overrule the original panel and hold that to escape a personal penalty [in addition to the virtually inevitable disqualification of the horse], the trainer needs to prove exactly how the banned substance came to be in the horse, which in many cases is impossible as the BHA well knows. But, as the appeal board has confirmed, that is not what the rule says, merely what the BHA want it to say. “It is not the function of the appeal board to re-write the rules to suit one side or another. Furthermore, it would be absurd for the rule to mean what the BHA contended for. In many instances, it would lead to trainers who have done everything right and absolutely nothing wrong being hit with an entry-point £1,000 fine. That would be flagellation, not regulation.” Ed - A South African horseracing legal expert hailed a landmark finding by a Kentucky Court in August, which found in favour of trainer Graham Motion that the strict liability rule applied in the state of Kentucky is unconstitutional.

Social Media

The Mauritius Turf Club has informed the public and its Members via a press release published this week that defamatory remarks have been posted on Facebook against certain of its Club Directors. A statement to this effect has been filed with the Police so that an investigation can be opened to establish the identity of the person(s) who have initiated the comments, and that action can be taken. The MTC advises that it wishes to inform the public and its Members that the Club will take all necessary legal action to preserve the integrity of the Club and horseracing in Mauritius.

No Choice?

The popular presence of the Choice Carriers crew that has served Cape Racing with reliability over many years will be no more from 1 December 2017. An accomplished horseman, Peter Choice, together with his staff has ferried runners to Kenilworth and Durbanville for many years and the news that his contract has come to an end is a shock for many local racing folk. Suskia Trading has been appointed with effect from 1 December to manage the transportation of horses to and from races and gallops.

WHY TRIALS ARE A GOOD IDEA

The sport of horse racing lends itself to all manner of romantic notions. However, it is at its heart, a science. More specifically, the science of rating horses is almost totally driven by physics and is based on Newton’s second law of motion, namely F=MA (where the force (F) acting on an object is equal to the mass (m) of an object times its acceleration (a)).

f reading that just made you swear under your breath and contemplate turning the page, don’t feel bad, so did I! I far prefer the notions of chance and luck, but I also like the idea of being able to understand how things work. Luckily the two are not necessarily mutually exclusive. I like horses and I like racing and the key to understanding the soul of the sport is handicapping and an understanding of the WFA scale. Or more correctly, an understanding and application of the correct WFA scale and correct handicapping. So although I’m not mad about having to do some basic arithmetic to understand what happens out on the track, the good news is that once I’ve done that, it does help me see and interpret things in a different way. A way that makes sense. And I have to confess to quite liking that too.

downgrading the race!). In the 2017 Selangor, the first four past the post in Rocket Countdown, White River, Do It Again and Undercover Agent were rated 96, 92, 92 and 91 respectively, making the average official rating of the first four past the Selangor post an MR92. With all four likely contenders for this year’s Cape Guineas, and unlikely to have another start before this year’s Classic to adjust their ratings, if these horses repeat their Selangor performance and finish in the top four in Guineas, what does that say about the supposed quality of our Guineas field for this year (and by implication, the future Gr1 status of this race?) These are worrying questions, unless we entertain the possibility that these ratings may, in fact, be way off kilter.

What You See vs What Really Happened

In the case of Classic races, where horses of the same age, carrying the same weight or in the case of WFA races, where a set weight adjustment is made to try and bring the various ages into alignment, barring random acts of the racing gods, the best horse generally wins and what your eye sees is a true reflection of what happened. We currently find ourselves in a situation where the majority of our racing diet is made up of handicaps. While there is nothing wrong with that, it does make our sport very difficult to analyse and fully understand. In a handicap, which sees horses of different ages and at different Let’s break it down stages of maturity pitted against one While one hates to focus on the another, and in which the handicap gamble, the fact of the matter is terms may not be consistent, it is that without betting turnover, racing harder to understand the true result could not survive.

Biting The Hands That Feed Us industry mouth-pieces such as the Racegoer, published in the daily broadsheets and the rudimentary free TAB sheets handed out in Totes, we tell the public what we officially rate each horse and what we think their ability to be. We refer to these as Merit Ratings – which, understandably, the public may interpret as ratings of each horse’s merit. Imagine, therefore, the frustration when a horse with the highest merit rating in a race (as indicated by the very organisation inviting people to risk their money), gets beaten by a horse with a lower rating, which might not even have been considered as being in with a chance according to our ‘tip sheet’.

Infinite tail Consider this. As either a once a year punter, or perhaps our minimum bet punter, which we are told makes up the majority of our business, we are essentially ‘selling’ the sport to an entry level type player, who will either not have access to sufficient information in order to do their own handicapping calculations or will rely on the entity inviting it to bet, and then offering information with which to make an informed decision, to give it sufficient, reliable information with which to make a judgement call. Now imagine that same person using the ratings – that we supply – and the tips and recommendations that we disseminate through our official racing mouthpieces such as Tellytrack, the Racegoer and the free Tab sheet, supplied at all our Tote outlets, and losing their money. After the first time, our little punter might be prepared to have a second go, but if he loses again, well, once bitten, twice shy and all that. If that’s not bad enough, the sour taste left in their mouth will be significantly intensified when post-race interviews broadcast connections making public statements to the effect that they had access to information that the public did not (we changed his feed

SHORT HEADS

In a Hurry

Finally! The first 2yo 800m scurry of the new season will be run at Fairview on Friday. Only 6 fillies line up and 4 qualify for the BSA Added Value Bonus of R40 000. They are Miss International, Sail Into Spring, Supa Smart and Watsonia. The latter is a first runner for Highlands exciting young Gr1 winning sire, Potala Palace.

Tough Choices

The R6 million yearling Silver Coin, who set an all-time SA record for a thoroughbred yearling at auction on the ﬁrst day of the 2016 Cape Premier Yearling Sale, has been gelded. The Drakenstein bred son of Silvano from National Banker won his debut in scintillating fashion last term but three disappointing eﬀorts since have no doubt forced Joey Ramsden and his illustrious owners to reconsider any hopes of a stallion career for the smashing specimen. He could yet have a bright racing career ahead of him.

BRAIN DRAIN

CHAMPION LEADS Lope De Vega (Shamardal), sire of Gary Alexander’s eyecatching Turffontein Sunday debut winner Radiant Splendour, is at 7th on the national sires' leader board after seventeen weeks of the 2017/18 Aussie racing season. Arrowfield Stud's incumbent Champion Australian Sire Snitzel is still coasting along quite comfortably at the top of the national sires' leader board with progeny earnings in excess of $12.8 million. Occupying second position is Coolmore's ill-fated High Chaparral, who made a significant move up the leader board after the wins by Rekindling in the Melbourne Cup and Ace High in the Victoria Derby.

JOCKEY SERIES

New Zealand-based jockey Mark Du Plessis will join the new ‘All Stars’ team for the UBET 2017 Origin Jockey Series. Zimbabwean-born Du Plessis will partner with our own Robbie Fradd to take on Queensland, New South Wales, New Zealand, Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania over three days from December 8-10.

Happy Days

Three jockeys who celebrated their birthdays recently rode winners to celebrate the occasion. Richard Fourie rode a hat-trick on his 32nd birthday at Kenilworth on Saturday. Mathew Thackeray turned 21 on Sunday and rode a double at Kimberley on Monday. Morne Winnaar rode a shock winner in the ﬁnal race at Kenilworth on Saturday – and celebrated his birthday 48 hours later.

Racing For THE RHINO Last Friday’s night meeting at Kranji played host to a worthy cause not often heard of at the races in Singapore – saving the rhinoceros in Africa. Racing for Wildlife in partnership with the African Society of Singapore got behind this worthy event in aid of Rhino conservation to raise awareness of this important issue.

CORRINA THURSTON

NHA Eastern Cape Chief Stipe Mike Jones bowed out after 33 years service at Fairview on Friday. Other than being accorded the honour of having a race named after him on the afternoon, the veteran disappeared in a puﬀ of smoke – with no news of who will replace him. With experience lacking in the ranks, the NHA is under enormous pressure to source the right people. Unfortunately, the best guys for the job - former top jockeys - never seem to ﬁnd their way into the Stipes boardroom.

Striker? Michael Owen, the former England striker, ﬁnished second on his debut in the saddle in a charity race at Ascot last Friday. Owen, who also starred for Liverpool, Real Madrid, Newcastle and Manchester United in his football-playing days, was one of 10 amateur riders to take part in the 1400m contest .

Drakenstein Stud’s champion sire Trippi celebrated four individual winners this weekend, including Friday’s November Stakes winner, Miracle Bureau. The son of End Sweep is well represented in the Kenilworth features this Saturday.

Tickets & Cracks

There were angry scenes at Kenilworth on Saturday when Tote punters found they could not get paid from race two onwards. One tackled journalist Michael Clower, saying: “You speak to the Tote people – you might get more sense out of them than I can,” while another had to be restrained from tearing up a winning ticket in a show of public protest. Why no announcement on course?

Andries Steyn

Off The Grid

It was interesting to see the reaction to the recent Andrew Harrison article on the challenges facing our smaller trainers. As such, it seemed appropriate to celebrate one such trainer from our ranks, Andries Steyn, who seems to have a rather nice, if somewhat challenging sort on his hands in the talented Power Grid.

ith his sunglasses and generous mop of strawberry blonde hair usually kept in check by a peak cap, Andries Steyn has been part of the Cape Racing faithful for just about as long as he can remember. He was born into a Swartland farming family and has the rough hands and ruddy complexion of someone who has spent their life outdoors. The middle of the family’s three children, he is Piet ‘Kleinman’ Steyn’s older brother. Asked how he got involved in racing, he shrugs and says his father was keen on horses and gymkhana and Cape Hunt racing in particular and often took on Thoroughbreds from local trainers. Michael Schulman was his jockey and Janie Myburgh used to ride for him in the ladies’ races and the family were enthusiastic followers of the local gymkhana racing scene, travelling to Darling, Hopefield, Eendekuil, Vredenburg, Stellenbosch (Lions Club) and the Durbanville club, where Andries’ dad used to maintain the track. Andries went to school in Philadelphia and then an agricultural school near Paarl. “It wasn’t like these days. We had to do all the work ourselves. We’d come back from school, eat, put on your overalls and gumboots and get to work.” However, he freely admits the academic life wasn’t for him. “I left school after Standard 8. At the end of that year, I told the teacher I was not coming back. He upped my exam results on the condition I didn’t come back!”

Racing

He joined his father on the farm and the boys used to train the horses at the back of the farm after chores were done in the afternoons. Cape Hunt enthusiasts will remember horses such as Isak, Prince Venture and A Little. Isak was a particularly good horse and the brothers used to take turns riding him in races. “Piet was very small back then, that’s why he was called Kleinman, but then he shot up,” he laughs. Andries later started riding work for Lenny Taylor, who was training for Hennie Retief at the time and finally joined Dr Louie Naude in 1974, while brother Piet joined the Peter Kanneyemer yard. Naude was one of the first vets to have a mobile operating table under

lights and one of the first to have the machinery for measuring heart scores on horses. It was a different era. In those days Milnerton Racecourse was still on the outskirts of town and travelling up the N7 after races, one was unlikely to encounter another road user between there and Malmesbury. The Western Cape was dotted with small trainers and breeders and one paid for a truckload of straw by exchanging it with the farmer for the resulting manure.

July Great

Tony Distel was a friend of his father’s and the two gentlemen often socialised together. Distel had bought a Thoroughbred mare with a colt foal at foot from a dispersal sale for the princely sum of R175. “Tony worked on the boats, so he was away a lot. He bought the horses just to have around the house for fun.” Distel got an old stock saddle and used to ride the young colt to the shops in Saxonwold. After being offered to several trainers

and receiving no interest, Andries’ dad eventually persuaded him to give the chestnut a go and put it in training with the Naude string. The horse’s name of course was Big Charles, who would go on to win 9 or 10 races, including the 1981 Rothmans July under Jimmy Anderson. Andries met Jimmy in Durban the previous season and relates an interesting anecdote that the jockey was very fussy about the horses he would ride in work. “He would only ride first and maybe second string. He didn’t want to ride bad horses. He said it affected his judgement. And you know, he’s right, if you only work with bad horses, it does make things difficult.” “The horse was a 6 or 7 time winner and we struggled to get him into the July,” he remembers, scoffing at the fact that one now sees July runners that might not even have a win under their belt. “We ran Big Charles in the Republic Day handicap. Because he was a bit of a handful, he was loaded early and with a hood and was slow away as a result, but still finished less than 5 lengths off. “Jimmy got off and said they can come for the July,” he smiles. Big Charles duly delivered by half a length over French Mustard. He very nearly won the July – Gold Cup double, going down narrowly to Brave Persian under Garth Puller.

“Garth always liked to come from the back of the field. They couldn’t get a clear run and ended up losing by a short head.”

Andries has his own sand track that he maintains meticulously and is proud that in the 13 years he’s trained from home, he’s never had a single tendon issue from it. The fact Out On His Own that it’s a private facility and less In 1984, Andries took the plunge hectic and stressful than the bigger and went out on his own.

Scaling down

Having trained up to 40 horses at one stage, he’s now cut down to 10 and admits that it is tough as a smaller trainer, particularly when you are buying on a budget. “If guys are paying R20k or R30k, they don’t mind so much if the horse isn’t very good, but if you’re paying big money and not getting results, it’s not a lot of fun.” He has lost a number of owners in the past year, some of whom have died and some which have simply retired from the game. “You can’t replace them, that’s the problem,” he reflects. He considered giving up and put his property on the market, but says his daughters went mad. “So I had to maar take the sign down,” he shrugs. Wife Jennifer, the daughter of retired jockey turned trainer Lionel Witkowski and a frequent fixture at Andries’ side at races, handles his accounts and deals with clients. His daughters, Elizabeth and Joanne both live on the farm as well. Joanne has two boys which Andries and Jennifer babysit regularly and Andries can often be found leading his grandsons down Zonnekus Road on their pony.

A review of the week's best SPEEDRATINGS

Go Slow Fairview 20 November Monday’s action took place on the poly track where one wonders why the times, over all distances, were much slower than usual. The MR65 Handicap over 1200m proved to be the fastest race on the card comparatively and here we saw a smart performance from the 4yo QUINELIA. A fluent winner over 1300m on this surface last time out, the daughter of Querari was hampered early on and as a result she raced in midfield. She ran on best of all in the short home straight and won going away by two and a quarter after striking the front 150m out. The only other distance to stage more than one race on the program was 1900m where the quickest of the three was the MR80 Handicap won by the former KZN campaigner CAT IN COMMAND. Making his fourth appearance since relocation to the province, the 7yo raced fifth of the eight for most of the journey. He quickened best over the final 400m and in a thrilling three way finish he got up in the dying strides. A MR86 Handicap over 1200m topped the bill and here the favourite MIRANDA FROST duly landed the odds. Taken straight to the front by Greg Cheyne, the daughter of Western Winter led throughout. She was always doing it easily and although the improving PINK ROCK did run on strongly from off the pace and was only beaten a neck, Miranda was never asked to engage top gear. TITBITS Running on from midfield, FREMONT didn’t find the clearest of passages when winning the maiden plate over 1300m by a length and a quarter.

Stepping Up

Vaal 21 November They raced on the outside track on Tuesday where five of the afternoon’s nine races were run over 1200m. The fastest of these on my clock was the bill topping MR83 Handicap in which the 4yo TORRE DEL ORO registered his third career victory. On leaving the stalls it was the 9yo VULCAN who elected to make the running whilst the son of Trippi sat fifth. He ran on best of all over the final 400m and under a well-judged ride from Pierre Strydom, he got up late to beat the useful ARABIAN BEAT. The faster of the two 1000m races was the maiden plate in which the odds on favourite STAR OF JOBURG got off the mark. Soon positioned close to the speed, Erico Verdonese’s charge got the better of the front running HE’S GREAT 90m out and went on to score comfortably by a half. The two remaining races were both run over 1600m and here the MR65 Handicap won by TRIP TO TROY was the quicker. Freely available at 7/1 on the off, the top weight was always handy. He ran on strongly from halfway and despite being disadvantaged by a slipped saddle won well by a half from the running on RESOLUTE CAPTAIN. TITBITS The newcomer PENNY ROYAL impressed when winning the maiden plate going away with some in hand.

Kenilworth 22 November Despite some much needed rain, the going was still good in Cape Town on Wednesday where three of the afternoon’s eight races were staged over 1400m. By far the fastest of these was the MR80 Handicap won by the improving BERNIE. A winner at Durbanville over this distance in the maiden ranks last time out, this son of Horse Chestnut was soon up handy. He was ridden to lead as they approached the 200m marker and comfortably accounted for the always handy HEMMINGWAY by two and a quarter. The faster of the two 1600m events which brought proceedings to a close was the conditions plate in which SEATTLE GOLD registered her fourth career victory. Freely available at 36/1 on the off Brett Crawford’s charge made all. She raced a length clear throughout and although the wellsupported 21/20 favourite GIMME SIX chased hard over the final 400m, she did have that one held by three quarters at the wire.

Cruising In Vaal 23 November With the false rail out 3m from the 2400m – 500m marks, it was no surprise that the only race down the straight, the MR66 Handicap over 1000m, was comparatively the fastest race on the card. The winner AIRTAXI raced in midfield early on. He ran on stoutly when given rein 400m out and won well by a half after striking the front 100m out. The only distance to stage more than one event on the nine race program was 1500m where quickest home was FISH RIVER CANYON in the MR63 Handicap. Initially priced up as the favourite, Gary Alexander’s charge was always in touch with the leaders. She took up the running shortly after passing the 200m marker and won well by a length and a half.

In terms of distance, the easiest victory on the card was recorded by KANTARA QUEEN in the opening work rider’s maiden plate over 1500m. Making her eleventh racecourse appearance here, the 9/1 shot was soon up handy. She was ridden to lead as they approached the 200m pole and cruised clear in the closing stages of the race to score by six and a half. TITBITS The 3yo FLIGHT SCHOOL showed good improvement when winning the boy’s division of the maiden plate over 1500m with plenty in hand. The well supported favourite CASH TIME came from the backend of midfield when winning the MR66 Handicap over 2000m going away.

Just The Three Greyville 24 November As is the norm nowadays in KZN a barrier trial over 1000m kicked off proceedings. Run in a typically slow time, EVERLASTING LOVE was first past the post. She put her head in front 200m out and with none of the runners in any kind of a hurry in the closing stages of the race, she won comfortably by a length and a half. Race 1 was a maiden plate over 1600m and here we saw a comfortable victory for the joint second favourite FLY BY SKYE. Always handy, Glen Kotzen’s charge took up the running approaching the 300m marker and won well by a length and a half from the favourite BIOMETRIC. Racing was delayed due to a heavy downpour and close proximity of an electric storm after the running of this race, and after race two was run in very heavy rain the

remainder of the meeting was abandoned. Race two was the girl’s division of the maiden 1600m and in a time not surprisingly slower than that of race one, the best bet on the card for Sporting Post, MISS MILANNA still managed to do the business. Soon prominent, Dean Kannemeyer’s charge took command 220m out and won going away. TITBITS CHROME BLUE (jarred right fore knee) and REDEEMER (elevated temperature) were the only early scratchings in the abandoned later races.

Horses worth following at their next few starts... PENNY ROYAL (JAJ v Vuuren, Gauteng)

Two of the three remaining races were run over 1000m and in what proved to be the faster of these, a MR72 Handicap, we saw a smart performance from the recent maiden winner WHAT A WINNER. Another to make all, the son of What A Winter was always clear, and showing good improvement won without any anxious moments by two and a quarter. TITBITS OMEGA FORCE ran on strongly in the closing stages when getting up late to open her account in the maiden 1200m.

SPORTING POST • FRIDAY 1st - SUNDAY 3rd DECEMBER 2017

Diamond (Var). Like Taineberry, Annie (Trigger Finger) went on to bigger and better things after her unplaced run behind Igreja. To the cover of Western Winter, the Eastern Cape star threw both Equus Champion 2YO, Ice Cube, and Gr2 Green Point Stakes winner, Jagged Ice, and Annie is also second dam of Listed Settlers Trophy winner, Arezzo (Go Deputy) and promising 3yo, and Dingaans contender, Pietro Mascagni (Silvano). Another subsequent high class broodmare, who could only finish down field in a Cape Fillies Guineas, was Fair Spanish Lady (Del Sarto), who failed to feature in the 1989 Fillies Guineas.

Saturday sees the running of the Gr1 Cape Fillies Guineas - a breeding ground of great families.

he Cape Fillies Guineas honour roll includes the great mare, Party Time, whose greatgreat granddaughter, In The Fast Lane, won the same classic in 2013, Petrava , dam of 2000 Fillies Guineas winner, Hoeberg, as well as champion sire, Jallad, and fellow Gr1 producers Olympic Duel (dam of Gr1 Daily News 2000 winner, Flying Duel), Shadow Dancing (dam of dual Gr1 winner Thunder Dance), Festive Season (dam of Gr1 Gold Cup heroine, Festive Forever, dam of champion, Fearless), Kendal Green (dam of Gr1 winning 2yo, This England), and Wild Ash (dam of Met winner Wild West). Dance Every Dance (Northern Guest), winner of the Fillies Guineas in 1995, is granddam of Equus Champion and triple Gr1 winner, Capetown Noir (Western Winter), while Sparkling Gem, winner of the race in 2008, is out of a daughter of former Cape Fillies Guineas winner, Flying Snowdrop.

Last Winter

Field Flower (Silvano), who won the Cape Fillies Guineas in 2000, is responsible for the exciting unbeaten Cape campaigner, Last Winter (Western Winter), while Shadow Dancing (Fort Wood) is second dam of the promising Love Supreme (Silvano), who takes her place in Saturday’s WSB Cape

Fillies Guineas. Another former Cape Fillies Guineas winner with a smart current performer is Ebony Flyer, who is dam of this season’s potential classic contender, Cot Campbell (Trippi). However, it is not only the winners of the Cape Fillies Guineas who have made their mark on the South African stud book, plenty of placed runners and even alsoruns have left their mark at stud. One can but wonder what Mother Russia, runner up in the 2008 Gr1 Cape Fillies Guineas, might have achieved with a longer innings at stud. Her only foal is Gr1 Empress Club Stakes winner and Sunday’s Gr2 Ipi Tombe Stakes winner , Nother Russia (Tiger Ridge). Champion, Consensual (Camden Park), fifth behind Sparkling Gem and Mother Russia in the 2008 classic, has also made her mark, as dam of Cape Fillies Guineas winning Equus Champion, Just Sensual (Dynasty). Consensual is out of a daughter of Fillies Guineas winner, In Camera. Secret Heart (Fort Wood), who was third in the race back in 2002, produced two US graded stakes winners before her early death, including Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf winner and sire, Pluck, while Resolution Bay (unplaced in the 2002 renewal) went on

Capetown Noir to produce short-lived Gr1 Paddock Stakes winner, Emerald Cove.

Do You Remember?

Festive Occasion (Casey Tibbs) was second to champion, Sun Classique (Fuji Kiseki) in the 2006 race, before she went on to breed Gr1 Woolavington 2000 winner, Do You Remember, to the cover of Silvano. Subsequent Horse Of The Year, Ilha Da Vitoria (Candy Stripes), could only finish second to stable mate, Emerald Beauty, in 2003, but enjoyed more success at stud than the latter. Now deceased, Ilha Da Vitoria produced offspring including Gr2 SA Oaks winner, Ilha Bela (Fort Wood), as well as Listed Oaks Trial heroine, Ilha Grande (Tiger Ridge). The latter, sadly also deceased, is dam of Gr1 SA Fillies Classic winner, Orchid Island (Silvano) and sales topping debut winner, Sugar

Girl. Another Fillies Guineas runner up to leave her mark on the South Africa turf as a broodmare was Fair Model (Model Man). Fair Model features as second dam of reigning Horse of The Year, and six times Gr1 winner, Legal Eagle (Greys Inn), who bids to defend his title in Saturday’s Gr2 Green Point Stakes. While the 1997 Cape Fillies Guineas winner, Igreja (Southern Halo) proved a disappointing broodmare, her beaten rivals in the classic, Taineberry and Annie proved just the opposite.

Legacy

Subsequent Natal Oaks winner, Taineberry (Centaine), has founded something of a legacy in South Africa with her descendants including dual Guineas winner, Solo Traveller (Western Winter) and last season’s Gr2 Golden Horseshoe hero, Purple

Dynasty On The Mark - Yet Again

Highlands Stud’s champion sire Dynasty was represented by his 14th individual Gr1 winner when his son Liege won the delayed 2017 Gr1 Sansui Summer Cup at Turffontein on Sunday.

iege made amends for his fourth place finish in the Summer Cup 12 months earlier with a fluent two and a quarter length win, under jockey Raymond Danielson, in Sunday’s R2 000 000 feature. South Africa’s latest equine millionaire, the five-year-old was one of two runners in the 2017 Summer Cup sired by Dynasty.

The 2017 Summer Cup winner is bred on the hugely successful Dynasty/Jallad cross, with this mating having also resulted in the Gr1 winners It’s My Turn (Cape Derby) and Eyes Wide Open (Premiers Champion Stakes), as well as former Gr1 Vodacom Durban July runner up Run For It. Liege is a first Summer Cup winner for Dynasty, whose progeny have already won major races like the Gr1 Vodacom

Dynasty Durban July, Gr1 J&B Met, Gr1 L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate, Gr1 Paddock Stakes (3 times), Gr1 Cape Derby (3 times) and Gr1 Cape Guineas, amongst others. Dynasty’s Equus Champion, and

Gr1 Thekwini Stakes winner of last season, Lady In Black is one of 16 fillies set to contest Saturday’s Gr1 WSB Cape Fillies Guineas – a race won last year by another Dynasty sired champion, Just Sensual. Lady In Black is one of several exceptional 3yos representing Dynasty this season, with the latter’s sophomores including Listed KZN Guineas Trial winner Sir David Baird and unbeaten filly Hashtagyolo. The latter, unbeaten in two outings, recently romped to an easy win in the KZN Fillies Guineas Trial. Another son of the great sire, Nassa, is an accepted runner in the Gr1 LONGINES Hong Kong Cup in December.

Good Lady

Winner of the 1988 Gr2 Sceptre Stakes, Fair Spanish Lady went on to produce high class feature race winners, Lady Of Cadiz (Gr3 Kenilworth Fillies Nursery), Barcelona Baby (Gr3 Southern Cross Stakes) and Spanish Blade (Gr3 Cape Of Good Hope Nursery). Another unplaced runner in the 1989 classic, Crescent Fields, also found success at stud. The daughter of great broodmare sire, Northfields is dam of multiple GR1 winner, Surveyor (Western Winter), whose wins included both the Gr1 SA Classic and Gr1 Triple Crown 1600 of 2003 both times accounting for subsequent Horse Of The Year Yard-Arm. Thatching’s Fire, who finished third in the same race, went on to breed Gr1 Germiston November Handicap winner, Fov’s Fancy, herself dam of high class racemare, Frequent Flyer (Silvano).
