poor race but is another that has toiled in the shadow of Legal Eagle.

He ran a cracking fourth in the L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate after he was awkwardly placed on the heels of a tiring It Is Written at the 450m, and had to steady for a number of strides. That was a terrific prep run and the trainer-jockey combination are bidding for a Met double. The 17 draw won’t be in their favour though.

The first of the Mike de Kock trio, the 4yo High Chaparral filly Cascapedia booked her place here courtesy of a supplementary entry after a smooth victory in the London News Stakes at Turffontein three weeks ago. A Northern Hemisphere bred, which entitles her to an additional 1kg allowance, she will have to maintain serious improvement to feature. She certainly has smart form – having won 5 of her 6 starts, but now faces serious opposition for the first time.

Anthony Delpech suggested after her last win that she is a high-class filly.

to be at his physical peak by some observers. He had a tough race when digging deep to win the mile at his last start, but Sean Tarry is a master at prepping them. He must be the horse to beat.

First of the Justin Snaith runners, Copper Force rocketed into Met contention with a massive run in the L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate, when flying up for second under a half length off Legal Eagle. While there must be a question mark about his ability to see out the 2000m, he was a touch unlucky in the Queen’s Plate

as he came from last, and couldn’t get a run in the straight – in the process he also had to be switched twice. His trainer suggests the best milers can win the Met – but the jury must be out as to whether that storming run behind Legal Eagle can be repeated.

Trojan galloper Captain America ran third behind Whisky Baron and Legal Eagle in this race last year and gets a massive chance to turn the tables from a 3 draw. The son of Captain Al has lived in Legal Eagle’s shadow though and he will be a popular quartet rover, with a top four spot well within his sights.

The 2017 July winner Marinaresco finished under a length behind Legal Eagle in the L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate, where he was flying late. The son of Silvano will strip a few lengths fitter on Saturday and gets his best chance yet to beat Legal Eagle. That said, his habit of seldom stringing two good runs together counts against him – but he will have plenty of support.

It’s the first Met in history run at pure weight-for-age and with twenty runners lining up at the 2000m mark at Kenilworth on Saturday, the R5 million Gr1 Sun Met boasts the biggest field for the Cape flagship in 24 years. With newsmaking L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate winner Legal Eagle out to bury the memory of his two consecutive runnerup cheques, there is plenty to play for in a class line-up.

her 18 draw to feature.

Nightingale ran a below-par race in the Paddock Stakes after being cramped in running and also not striding out. Even ignoring that run, Anthony Delpech chooses to opt for Cascapedia – which suggests the latter is stronger.

Gauteng raider Coral Fever is a game sort who inevitably runs into the money. He has it all to do though at his first Cape start and looks held

by Cascapedia on his London News Stakes third. He is the top finisher of the Sansui Summer Cup class of 2017 – he ran a 2,40 length third behind Liege – and his connections are to be commended for taking the plunge against some serious gallopers on these weight terms.

The possibly ‘forgotten horse’ could well be the Gr1 SA Classic winner Heavenly Blue, who comes in off a low-key prep. The handsome Snitzel grey has had only one run in eight months and is very difficult to assess on unknown fitness levels.

His record last term showed that he was in the top rank of his generation

and he could be a nice quartet kicker at long odds, if finding his best form.

Longshot Gr2 Western Cape Stayers winner Krambambuli may be best over slightly further, but finished like a bullet under top weight in the Gr2 Peninsula Handicap last time, when running fifth. He caught the eye when receiving 4kgs from the winner and running a decent fourth in the July.

Progressive Dean Kannemeyer 4yo Last Winter narrowly failed to peg back the free-striding Milton in the Premier Trophy and now steps into his big league debut, with the albatross of a 20 draw. The son of Western Winter looks to have plenty to do – but has the scope to make a mockery of the paper calculations.

He galloped over 800m at Kenilworth last Thursday and got the thumbs-up from Piere Strydom, who rides him for the first time.

Big-ticket yearling Horizon has to overcome a 19 draw and does not look to have done enough to win this. The son of Dynasty stayed on for a 4,25 length fourth behind

Oh Susanna

Eyes Wide Open in the Peninsula Handicap. Piere Strydom reported he felt something amiss and his mount was reported to have pulled up lame. Can he really be at his best just three weeks later?

Safe Harbour looks well held by 3yo Oh Susanna on her Paddock Stakes fifth placed finish. The game daughter of Elusive Fort looks well and truly outgunned here, and her wide draw will not benefit her cause.

Justin Snaith’s Street Cry filly Oh Susanna is the bottom-weight but she will need to up her game further after an easy win in the Gr1 Paddock Stakes last time. She took off late for second behind her stablemate star Snowdance in the Cape Fillies Guineas at her penultimate start and should easily handle the 2000m, which she goes for the first time. A new bit and the prospects of a hot pace look likely to curb her tendency to overrace – something that she cannot afford to do in this company.

The dual Algoa Cup winner Nebula has proven to be a rather in-andout sort and cannot be relied upon.

He ran eight lengths back in the Peninsula Handicap , and while he has the pole position draw here, would need to run out of his skin to challenge the top four.

Gr3 Winter Derby winner Elusive Silva must rank as the least fancied of the Snaith quintet. The son of Silvano hit top form during the KZN Champions Season last term with victories in the Gr3 Cup Trial and Listed Sledgehammer. But an injury as a fancied runner in the July gallops put him out of action for seven months. His return run in the Peninsula Handicap was a quiet effort.

It could be third time lucky for the champion Legal Eagle and on paper it really looks to be the Greys Inn gelding, or bust! Beyond him, the likes of Captain America, Marinaresco and Sail South will be thereabouts – depending in various forms as to how the race is run. Then the new generation – the likes of Last Winter, African Night Sky – and the 3yo Oh Susanna, cannot be discounted. A great race in the offing!

AFRICAN NIGHT SKY

last year when fourth behind Whisky Baron and a year older now meets Legal Eagle on 7,5kgs worse terms.

Cape Winter Series star African Night Sky should be perfectly primed for his chief Cape summer goal after a steady seventh under 3 lengths off Legal Eagle in the big mile last time.

He was caught one wide without cover all the way round there. Considering it was his second run after a rest in a fast run mile, it was a decent effort.

The son of Dynasty will be fitter on Saturday and is probably near his best over this trip. Regular pilot Bernard Fayd’herbe, who chose African Night Sky ahead of Marinaresco at the start of the summer , knows what it takes to win the Met. Mike de Kock’s star mare Nother Russia will be out to go one better than her illustrious Mum, who finished runner-up in consecutive years in this race. Nother Russia meets Oh Susanna on the same terms when beaten 2,80 lengths in the Paddock Stakes at her first Cape start. The daughter of Tiger Ridge is bound to improve, but has to beat

Trip To Heaven will be flying late - even if he jumps slow

R1 Million Gr1 CAPE FLYING CHAMPIONSHIP at Kenilworth this Saturday

A

The high-class Trip To Heaven had to play second fiddle to his champion stablemate Carry On Alice in the 2017 renewal of the R1 million Gr1 Cape Flying Championship and his performance on Saturday could be key to the outcome of Saturday’s feature.

fellow with a bad habit of missing the jump, the talented Trip To Heaven actually got away on terms under Richard Fourie in the Diadem Stakes last time out and then failed to kick late – running fifth and 3,75 lengths behind Snaith shock winner, Bishop’s Bounty. He might have run too freely there and Anton Marcus can get the winning mix on Saturday. A tardy start seems to work for him.

The ever game Sergeant Hardy won the Listed Southeaster Sprint at his penultimate start and was just a little one-paced when third and 2,75 lengths behind Bishop’s Bounty in the Diadem. The Sergeant is guaranteed to stretch them again on Saturday and is very difficult to peg back when he puts his head down.

Search Party was unplaced in this

race last year and has had two quiet lead-up runs. Richard Fourie could be the jockey strike to reignite this talented gelding’s enthusiasm.

The lightly-raced Graduation Day was unplaced in the Merchants last time out and has his first run in the Cape. Anton Marcus’ preference for Trip To Heaven suggests that the Tarry runner is superior.

Jo's Bond ran a good fifth in the Sceptre Stakes and this lightning fast daughter of Captain Al could threaten for quartet money.

Brutal Force showed dangerously in the Southeaster Sprint when staying on for third, but was then way back in the Diadem.

Talktothestars was a length in front of Brutal Force there and has not won in ages. He is the kind of horse who could turn up in a galloping mood and take this lot on.

But Kenilworth has never been his happiest hunting ground.

Dennis Drier’s Var filly Sommerlied’s form has tapered negatively at her last two starts and she failed to quicken when finishing in midfield in the Sceptre Stakes last time. This is even tougher.

Live Life won on this day last term but the daughter of Trippi is yet to rekindle her 3yo promise. Greg Cheyne will be looking to attack the leaders late – but watch the south easter as she is drawn on the paint.

The very speedy Alfolk has won 4 of 9 starts and, while facing a big task on paper, could be better than the official rating suggests.

Anthony Delpech rides stablemate Naafer – also a son of Lonhro - who ran a good second in the Joburg Merchants and was runnerup to boom colt Mustaaqeem in the Gr1 SA Nursery last season. The stable has not been in great form in the Cape features, but this could be a turning point.

Always In Charge dropped out in the Diadem and is battling to regain his better form after showing up well in the Merchants in his previous start.

The evergreen 8yo Tevez has found his best form, rattling late to chase Bishop’s Bounty in the Diadem last time. He ran under 2 lengths fifth to Carry On Alice in this race last year.

The classy Attenborough has

not shown up recently but gets the services of Piere Strydom and looks to be crying out to be ridden quietly. The son of Western Winter is overdue to put his best hoof forward again and would need to find his better 3yo form to get into the money.

The 3yo Bold Respect chased Sir Frenchie in the Sophomore Sprint last time and is very effective this course and distance. Brett Crawford stable jockey Corne Orffer rides him over Search Party.

La Favourari and Percival both hail from the Andre Nel yard. The West Coast-based training operation has been hit by a virus and they look unlikely starters.

Olympian ran second at Fairview in his last start. This looks tough at these weights.

Trip To Heaven is now a year without a win. He is just too hot for that kind of record and he is the choice to beat Attenborough and Naafer – with Sergeant Hardy always a danger.

The Summer Flyers The Cape Flying Championship was launched in 1969 over the Milnerton 1000m course and run for a stake of R4000. On Saturday, the summer speed stars chase the prestigious title for a stake of R1 million.

The late Theo De Klerk, a true gentleman of Cape trainers, saddled the very first winner, Benzol, for his wife Lavinia.

In its 49 year history, the greatest ‘Cape Flyer’ is without doubt the ‘Iron Horse’ Sentinel, who won the race for three years in succession from 1973. Other multiple winners were Free Enterprise, Signor Amigo, Flobayou, Cordocelli, Laisserfaire, Nhlavini and present day Drakenstein stallion, What A Winter.

The race was switched to Kenilworth from 1996 and the brilliant Eric Sands trained Flobayou thus holds the rare distinction of being the only horse to win the Gr1 sprint at both Milnerton and Kenilworth.

Eyes Wide Open can follow up on his good last win

R1 Million Investec Gr1 CAPE DERBY at Kenilworth this Saturday

Hooked On A Classic

T

While there is no Frankie Dettori to set the world on fire, the 2018 R1 Million Investec Gr1 Cape Derby has attracted a high quality field and a terrific contest is in the offing. Recent Gr2 Peninsula Handicap winner Eyes Wide Open gets a chance to confirm his excellent 2yo form and looks the one to beat.

he Highlands-bred son of Dynasty stepped back into the limelight when set the task of taking on his elders in the Peninsula Handicap at his last start. It is now history that he won a good race and was expected to have played himself into Met contention.

With a surplus of class horses, the Chrigor Stud Team have opted rather to take on Cape Guineas winner Tap O'Noth here rather.

Vaughan Marshall had to take precautions against a virus threat at his yard recently and it would be a pity were this to impact on the high class Tap O'Noth, who looks to be the leading 3yo colt in the Cape this season. After his emphatic win in the Cape Guineas, he is now asked to go a further 400m and all indicators are that he will cope.

Both his half sister and half brother have shown that they stay well, and Tap O'Noth looks a sensible sort who can go all the way.

Joey Ramsden throws a fairer sex curved ball into the mix in the form of the Western Winter filly, Fresnaye.

The Drakenstein owned and bred galloper has run two notable Gr1 thirds in her last two starts and now

takes on the boys. Piere Strydom will give her every chance to overcome her 12 draw.

Brett Crawford has somehow managed to keep a fairly low profile with the Trippi colt, White River, after consecutive runner-up finishes in the Selangor and the Cape Guineas.

On the face of it, he has close to winning form and if Tap O'Noth does not get the trip, White River will be there to pick up the pieces.

Pack Leader is the second of the Glen Kotzen trio and the son of Philanthropist gets the services of top jockey Anthony Delpech from a good draw. He ran on steadily without banking a cheque in the Cape Guineas and is sure to enjoy the 2000m.

Anton Marcus and Mike De Kock team up with the Captain Al colt, Like A Panther. Earmarked early as a classic prospect, he ran a very smart third behind Tap O'Noth in the Cape Guineas and looks set to improve further over this trip. The dark horse of the race!

The Twice Over gelding Do It Again flew late after being baulked in the Selangor, but failed to follow up when a no show in the Cape Guineas last time out. His six-time winning dam was a trojan up to 2400m and he

could be crying out for this ground.

The Oratorio colt, Opera Royal, finished a half length behind Steel Rose in the Politician Stakes and was not disgraced at his penultimate start when ridden with too little restraint and failing to finish his race strongly – ending up under 4 lengths behind Milton. He should enjoy the extra.

Glen Puller's Steel Rose ran a nice race in the Politician Stakes when staying on for 3rd behind Double Mint. He was unsighted in the Selangor and may lack the class in a field of this nature.

P E visitor Kimberley Star is an interesting runner and has his third run as a 3yo. He was exposed with some away form at Scottsville where he was beaten 7.25 lengths by the quality galloper Broadway Trip. That may not have been a fair reflection of his true worth as he clipped heels late in the race. He is bred to go this trip and his inclusion makes for an interesting angle on the contest.

Sean Tarry's Visionaire colt, Visigoth, has been disappointing since winning his maiden early in October last year. He tries 2000m for the first time but needs to show more commitment if he is to challenge the big guns.

A 15 draw will do no benefit for the prospects of the Trippi gelding The Sun Also Rises, who has continued to improve since winning his maiden in November. He was liberally used in the Politician Stakes when coming again to stay on behind Double Mint and has won over the Derby trip.

The Marchfield colt Spring Man followed up on his maiden win with an impressive course and distance effort last time in mixed age company. That win suggested he

may be better than originally thought and he thus gets his chance to prove his worth in this classic. He has drawn wide though and must be the lesser fancied of the Crawford duo.

The second of the Joey Ramsden duo, the record-breaking yearling Silver Coin showed an encouraging return to form last time when winning over 1400m at Durbanville. Gelding and blinkers appeared to do the trick and he should relish the step up in trip and has the advantage of a 1 draw.

The Candice Bass- Robinson trained What A Joker won at the third time of asking over 1400m and ran on in a low key mile handicap for third behind the hard-knocking In The Jungle last time out. He is unexposed in the higher league and this will be his first time at 2000m.

He is out of a Parade Leader mare

and that may be an indicator that he could find the ground.

So a fascinating race where Eyes Wide Open and Tap O’Noth look the obvious two – with White River and Like A Panther the dangers.

Met Bets – TAB There are two Pick 6's and two Jackpots at Kenilworth on Saturday and the Sun Met is included in the racecards for the Turffontein and Greyville race meetings on the same day.

TAB customers must select Kenilworth as the venue for certain bets on the race.

This is to avoid a repeat of the Summer Cup race meeting at Turffontein in November, when the Cup was included in both the Turffontein and Kenilworth racecards. The Turffontein meeting had to be postponed and because the Cup was a related race for all bet types on both racecards, it was not possible to pay out winning bets on Kenilworth until after the meeting.

For Saturday, only multi-race bets at Greyville and Turffontein will be related or linked to the Sun Met meeting at Kenilworth. These bets are Double, Pick 3, BiPot, Place Accumulator, Pick 6 and Jackpot.

TAB customers taking Win, Place, Swinger, Exacta, Trifecta and Quartet bets on the Sun Met must select Kenilworth – West Cape - on the betting form - and Race 9.

GOLD CIRCLE

The talented Gimme Six should be in the mix

R1 Million Gr1 MAJORCA STAKES at Kenilworth this Saturday

A

Justin Snaith’s outstanding 3yo Snowdance looks likely to start one of the shortest priced favourites in the recent history of the R1 million Gr1 Majorca Stakes. The Cheveley Studbred daughter of Captain Al is one of the most talked about prospects on the local racing scene in recent years.

winner of the Cape Fillies Guineas – where she beat subsequent Paddock Stakes winner and Met hopeful Oh Susanna - and Gr2 Western Cape Fillies Championship by an aggregate 8 lengths at her last two starts, Snowdance looks set to record another win.

She looks to hold this lot and bumps 2016 Cape Fillies Guineas winner Just Sensual who has the blinkers dropped as she steps up in ground after failing to fire in the 1200m Gr2 Sceptre Stakes last time. The daughter of Dynasty will strip fit and must be a danger – if the Snowdance wheels come off.

Good Time Gal faded right out in the Paddock Stakes – her worst effort in ages – and she has to overcome a 13 draw.

Silvan Star never showed in the Paddock Stakes but has proven very effective at a mile. She must be a serious place bet if Richard Fourie can overcome her wide draw.

Gimme Six finished 5 lengths behind

Silvan Star in the Paddock Stakes and may have needed the outing. Piere Strydom rides the Daisy Guineas winner, whose earlier form was top-class.

Rockin Russian has not been at her best in her recent Cape starts and was originally aimed at the CTS 1600. On her best 2yo form, she must have a place chance.

Victress Stakes winner Star Express didn’t have things her own way in the Paddock Stakes but finally gets a nice draw and Callan Murray will be keen to make amends on this talented Silvano daughter.

Final Judgement travelled to PE for a stakes feature last time out but faded out late to run 7 lengths behind Cape-based Merysagos. While she has the best of the draw, the daughter of Judpot is battling to regain her early sparkle.

A winner of 3 of her first 6 races, Premier Dance stayed on strongly in the Victress when beaten just over 2 lengths

by Star Express. This Silvano half-sister to Capetown Noir could be on the way back to best and could be a dark horse threat to put some late sparkle into the Dennis Drier summer campaign.

Louisiana appears to have lost all

semblance of her form and a widish draw won’t help the daughter of Ideal World.

PE challenger Beataboutthebush is very consistent but tends to lack a killer blow late in her races. The fact that Greg Cheyne opts to ride Seattle Gold may be a pointer. The latter has not quite been at her best lately and was beaten 4 lengths in the Paddock Stakes. She is a dangerous frontrunner at best.

Rose In Bloom chased Magical Wonderland home in the Sceptre Stakes last time and is a capable galloper on her day. She was bumped when beaten 6 lengths in the Cape Fillies Guineas and seems – at this stage – to be more effective over shorter than the mile.

Snowdance looks very difficult to oppose. In the words of Grant van Niekerk, who partners her for the first time on Saturday, and recently did some work on her. “She just has this stride and goes faster than the others!”

Majorca - Pure Gold The Gr1 Majorca Stakes is one of the most important weight-for-age races for fillies and mares on the racing calendar, and will be sponsored for the eighth year by leading breeders, Klawervlei Stud, an institution with close ties to the race.

From an historical perspective, it is fitting that Klawervlei sponsor the race since it is named after the champion filly Majorca who was bred at Klawervlei by Ralph Koster.

Legendary trainer Terrance Millard won the Majorca seven times, and interestingly, also celebrated a double. That was with the Peacable Kingdom filly Fast Piece who won the race in 1976 and 1977.

Millard’s first winner was Kentucky Belle in 1972 and he rounded off a golden era with Olympic Duel in 1990.

The last filly to achieve a double was The D Cohen & Sons bred Fine Edge filly Donatella, who won the race in 1999 and 2000, for trainer Clodagh Shaw. There is no double bid in the 2018 renewal as last year’s winner Nightingale lines up in the Sun Met. The unique Paddock Stakes – Majorca double also won’t be in danger as Justin Snaith has gone the Met route with his recent runaway Paddock Stakes winner, Oh Susanna.

The brilliant Equus champion Beach Beauty, now retired at Drakenstein Stud, and whose first foal, a colt by Trippi, was snapped up for R2,5 million by John Freeman at last weekend’s big sale, is probably the most celebrated of recent winners, and like Inara in 2016, won the Paddock Stakes – Majorca double.

And memories go back to 1997, when just one week after Koster Bros-bred London News captured the J&B Met, another product of their Cheveley Stud came to light when Roman Fantasy scrambled home a narrow winner of the Majorca Stakes

Ancestry looks much better than recent form

T

With KZN visitor Neptune's Rain withdrawn, Candice Bass-Robinson looks to hold a very strong hand in the $500 000 CTS 1200.

he CTS 1200 and CTS 1600 are restricted to eligible graduates of the 2016 Cape Premier Yearling Sale held on 21 and 22 January 2016, the CTS March Yearling Sale held on 19 and 20 March 2016 and the Emperors Palace Select Yearling Sale held on 21 April 2016.

Ashburton based Duncan Howells and his connections have suffered a body blow courtesy of the AHS controls, and this opens the door for the Bass-Robinson quartet to enjoy a stranglehold on this well-endowed sprint.

Aldo Domeyer partners What A Winter filly Magical Wonderland who bounced back to form down the straight track last time in a scintillating victory in the Gr2 Sceptre Stakes.

That run showed comprehensively that her form around the turn was inferior to what she has shown over Saturday's course and distance, and she looks a very difficult filly to stop.

Her stablemate Dutch Philip was a top 2yo last term and produced a cracking late run to get within a length of Silicone Valley in the Gr2 Cape Merchants in his penultimate start.

His last run in the Diadem Stakes was less impressive. but he runs for Grant Van Niekerk and must be a serious threat.

Gr1 winner Sand And Sea produced a slightly better effort when three lengths off Sir Frenchie in the Sophomore Sprint last time. It is worrying that he looked decidedly one paced late in the race and he needs to reconfirm his early reputation.

Joey Ramsden's Speedpoint came back smartly to win the Need For Speed Sprint at his last outing and this is another fellow who showed some smart form as a 2yo. He steps up 200m but is not a tearaway sort and needs to be taken seriously.

Dean Kannemeyer's Dynasty's Boy shed his maiden less impressively than one would have expected last time out at Durbanville. But he is highly regarded and may well be worth quartet consideration.

Justin Snaith's Kasimir has won his last three races on the trot and could have the edge on Speedpoint on their last clash.

Joey Soma's Lobo's Legend looks promising and may be best of the rest at his first Cape start.

The high class William Longsword is a big act to follow for the 16 runners facing the starter in Saturday's $500 000 CTS 1600.

M

uch has been said and written about sales races. When they are won by good horses, it underscores the quality of the feeder sales and Saturday's feature presents another opportunity for a big name to bank a big cheque.

The colt's name is Talk Of The Town, a strapping chestnut son of Var, who has won his last three starts with increasing authority and looks a horse headed in the right direction.

His new owners have had a dream start with the Joey Ramsden-trained galloper who stepped up to a mile last time for his best victory to date. While drawn 12, he is a pacy sort and it seems likely that Anton Marcus will go out and stretch his field.

His stablemate Ancestry has disappointed recently and must be better than his form.

Robbie Sage travels with the Silvano colt Vacquero, who ran a cracking third in the Dingaans. If not in need of the run after an 8 week break, he must be a challenger.

Brett Crawford has nabbed a pole position draw for his Captain Al colt Undercover Agent.

The Moutonshoek-bred galloper finished close up in both the Cape Classic and

the Selangor Cup, but came under pressure and made respiratory noises when running fairly well back in the Cape Guineas. He looks better than that.

Justin Snaith will fancy his chances with the Trippi colt, Cot Campbell, who has shown himself to be just a few lengths off Cape Derby fancy, Tap O'Noth.

Sean Tarry was not lucky with the draw for his duo, but both Captain And Master and Aurelia Cotta must have some sort of chance in this line-up. Anthony Delpech rides Captain And Master who disappointed in both the Selangor and Cape Guineas but is held in high esteem by his astute trainer. The Ashaawes filly, Aurelia Cotta, ran a nice 4th behind the highly regarded Majestic Mambo in the Listed Sea Cottage last time and could be a factor if overcoming the stress of her travel.

Selangor Cup winner Rocket Countdown made no show in the Cape Guineas and his wide draw will not assist him in this field.

Gavin Van Zyl travels with the Var colt, Flying Free, who ran a very decent 4th to Monks Hood in the Dingaans after being baulked. He could be the dark horse here on best form.

R350 000 KUDA SPRINT at Kenilworth this Saturday

Take Some Insurance!

T

With only two winners in the mostly unexposed field of eighteen, the R350 000 Kuda Sprint presents a tricky Sun Met day Place Accumulator opener. The betting may well be the best guide, with seven runners making their debut.

he non black-type feature is restricted to eligible graduates of the 2017 Lanzerac CTS Ready To Run Sale and top trainers Sean Tarry and Vaughan Marshall could hold the aces with fifty percent of the field between them.

But Joey Ramsden could have the last laugh for long-time patrons Gisela Burg and Martin Wickens.

Their colt Lucky Dancer is the only turf winner in the field. The son of Master Of My Fate won well over the course and distance at the second time of asking. Anton Marcus stays loyal to him – a good sign!

Phillip Smith travels from the Northern Cape with Kimberley 800m debut winner Sharak Alhub.

The daughter of Philanthropist, a R15 000 buy, bolted home on an unfancied debut. She could be

anything, but, win, lose or draw, her turning up is a great advertisement for the sale.

Sean Tarry’s Pomodoro colt Cirillo was bumped on a course and distance debut when staying on for third 1,25 lengths behind Temp The Tiger. Anthony Delpech rides the Riverton Stud product.

Rivonia Boulevard started at 20-1 on his course and distance debut and ran on steadily for third and 4,75 lengths off Twist Of Fate. He will improve.

Seventh Sea improved nicely at his second start when beaten over 3 lengths by Lucky Dancer in a small field. That still may not be enough.

Super Dino was 1,25 lengths behind him there and the Australian-

bred didn’t show at all.

The Sean Tarry fillies Urban Oasis and Queen Of The Dance finished a half length apart on their Kenilworth debut behind Twin Falls. There was more betting support for Queen Of The Dance and they are both likely to improve.

The balance are first-timers and, while horses don’t know their purchase prices, it may be worth considering the Glenellen Stud-bred Quick Star, a R550 000 graduate and the R450 000 buy,Star Angel.

Quick Star is by Oratorio, who has had a great start with his 2yo’s this term, out of an unraced USA- bred daughter of Harry’s Charm. Richard Fourie rides the colt for Glen Kotzen.

Star Angel is by the top-class What A Winter out of a sprinting National Assembly mare.

Lucky Dancer won really well at his second start and Anton Marcus appeared impressed by him. Unless

there is a lurker amongst the newcomers, he could be the one to side with again. It’s no fun going out first jump in a Met day PA though – so watch the betting and add to taste. Insurance doesn’t have to be a grudge purchase!

Sun Met

What Those In The Know, Know…

Attorney and racehorse owner Robert Bloomberg:

The Gr1 Sun Met has captured the public imagination and everybody is looking to back a winner in what is traditionally the toughest budget month on the calendar. We asked a few well informed experts for a guide on where their money will be on Saturday.

Gold Circle Racing Analyst Warren Lenferna:

As a WFA contest, it is hard to look past the top two. I’m siding with MARINARESCO as he had an eye-catching run in the Queen’s Plate and is far more effective over this trip. He has had a great prep. LEGAL EAGLE will race handy from his wide gate and is bound to be there as he always is when the chips are down, but may have to settle for a runnerup berth for the 3rd consecutive year. Having said that, he is easily the best handicapped horse in the race, bearing in mind though that his rating was achieved over a mile.

CAPTAIN AMERICA is a great each-way bet as he is as game as they come, doesn’t know how to run a bad race and will be in the frame again as he did when finishing third the last two years. SAIL SOUTH is the dark horse of the race who is always under the radar. He hasn’t been the trip, but the manner of his win in the Champions Cup over 1800m and his style of racing, coupled with his bad draw which will see him dropped out, could see him running a blinder here and he is a nice place bet at big odds. LAST WINTER should actually still be unbeaten after 5 career outings so looks far better than his current rating of 107. Despite being out at the weights at these WFA conditions and even with the worst of the draw, which isn’t the end of the world at Kenilworth over this distance, it wouldn’t be a surprise were he to end up in the winners enclosure 1.Marinaresco 2.Legal Eagle 3.Captain America 4. Sail South 5. Last Winter

LEGAL EAGLE has recorded two wins over the Met distance and is quite simply a CHAMPION! Arguably he is best over a mile, but good milers can win the Met and he is my confident first choice. In saying that, he will need a tremendous amount of luck from the draw.

When chatting to Anton Marcus late last week he was fairly upbeat about his chances. I do have healthy respect for COPPER FORCE (great run last time) and MARINARESCO (also caught the eye in his last run) but in my opinion, they will all have to run to beat LEGAL EAGLE! 1.Legal Eagle 2.Copper Force 3.Marinaresco

Saturday’s Met racecaller Rouvaun Smit:

Highlands And Ridgemont Racing Marketing Amanda Carey:

I am going with African Night Sky for obvious reasons. He is Highlands bred and by our stallion Dynasty. Also, Emma Rourke, Team Crabbia and Snaith Racing are friends and loyal Highlands supporters. Apart from that, he is a smart colt.

This year's Sun Met is going to be a humdinger and calling it will require nerves of steel as the pace will be on from the word go. Legal Eagle will be the first one to pounce in the straight and they will have to come and catch him. Don't be fooled by his hard run in the Queen's Plate - he will be freshened up and ready. Marinaresco will be arriving on the scene late as well as Last Winter as he is a young and improving horse. Sail South is as honest as the day is long. My heart says Legal Eagle to get third time lucky, but my head says Marinaresco.

The trick will really be to find the joker in the pack that pops up and makes the quartet pay. That happens every year!

Racing television producer Andrew Bon:

Kenilworth Racing Director Vidrik Thurling:

My heart says Captain America or Legal Eagle, both exceptional competitors, soldiers and home-bred champions. My gut says Nother Russia for many reasons, not least of all her run to Deo Juvente and Legal Eagle at Turffontein. I will not be surprised if Legal Eagle or Marinaresco win what is truly a great Sun Met.

For me its Last Winter. I feel he has tons of scope and is probably a good few pounds better than his rating. That said, the 3yo filly Oh Susanna has to go very close at the weights. I am looking forward to a recordbreaking day with two Pick 6’s for the first time and Usain to ‘boltster’ the day!

Former owner and breeder Tony Mincione:

Gauteng trainer Candice Dawson:

Former Jockey Rael Zieve:

Gauteng race-caller Nico Kritsiotis:

I haven't really studied the race yet, but it has to be Legal Eagle. He is the best horse in South Africa. And the 3yo filly of Snaith's Oh Susanna must have a massive chance at the weight.

Betting World COO Dean Finder:

With the change of conditions to this year’s race, Legal Eagle may get the chance to visit the winner’s enclosure after running second for 2 year’s running. He is well in at the weights and this race always favours the horses that fit that bill. Marinaresco’s last run was a brilliant prep and he would be the biggest danger to my choice. I still believe Gold Standard to be capable but at the weights it would be a hard task - and Cascapedia would be the best from the fillies’ ranks for me. I was impressed calling her last time and she is maturing into a good solid racehorse.

1. Legal Eagle 2. Marinaresco 3. Gold Standard 4. Cascapedia

I feel it is a very open race. I am going with Copper Force to beat Legal Eagle, Sail South, Heavenly Blue and African Night Sky.

I am going with Legal Eagle.... at half the price.

I fancy Cascapedia to win it.

R400 000 Gr2 WESTERN CAPE STAYERS at Kenilworth this Saturday

I

The R400 000 Gr2 Cape Stayers will again provide a fascinating visual spectacle on Sun Met day as the race jumps at the 2800m marker and in the public view. As in most races on the day, Justin Snaith has a strong hand but it is a marathon and the race looks open.

t’s a rare distance race at weight-for-age plus penalties.

Three-year-olds (there are none in the field) race off a base of 50,0kg, four-year-olds off 56,5kg and five year olds and older off 58,0kg. A sex allowance of 2,5 kg applies for fillies and mares, with penalties of 2kg for a Gr1 and 1kg for a Gr2.

Grant Paddock travels from PE with former Mike de Kock runner Alghadeer. The son of Dynasty stays all day and as a former major centre Listed winner – he also ran

third in the 2016 consolation July behind Punta Arenas – he won’t be intimidated in this company.

KZN Derby winner Mr Winsome has not proven conclusively that he goes this trip, but should be primed to run a big race at his fourth start this term. He is a class sort and Anton Marcus will be a massive plus in the irons.

The Fort Wood mare Fortissima is the only member of the fairer sex in this field and is an accomplished stayer. She sees Kenilworth for the first time and could enjoy the long

run-in as she takes time to get going. Anthony Delpech partners her again.

Justin Snaith’s Master's Eye should strip very fit after two solid efforts over 3200m at his last two starts. Some may have considered him to be unlucky to have been headed by Our Emperor in the Cape Summer Stayers and he looks overdue to register his fourth win.

Ollivander was outgunned in the Peninsula Handicap last time, but has shown enough over ground to suggest that he could run into the money here.

Captain Splendid stayed on tamely for third in the Cape Summer Stayers last time. But it is encouraging that Piere Strydom takes the mount again. He is a kilo better off with his stable mate Master's Eye for a 2.25 length beating and is always a quartet consideration.

Let It Rain showed prominently

for a long way in the Cape Summer Stayers at his first run at Kenilworth three weeks ago. The son of Dynasty has changed stables and also gets the services of local star Richard Fourie. He stays well.

The 6yo My World once again showed very little commitment when it counted when finishing a modest fifth in the Cape Summer Stayers last time. He has not won in ages and there is no reason to believe he will improve to challenge here.

Woodland's Forest is a modest one-time winner and has failed to impress since winning his maiden back in April. He was well beaten in the Cape Summer Stayers last time and looks well held here.

Gauteng visitor Savage Wind now races in the silks of his veteran trainer, Joey Soma. The son of Eyeofthetiger is now an 8yo and frankly not showing much enthusiasm for racing.

R150 000 LISTED SUMMER JUVENILE STAKES at Kenilworth this Saturday

Ramsden Double On Cards Milnerton maestro Joey Ramsden broke the Justin Snaith five-year winning streak in the R150 000 Listed Summer Juvenile Stakes with a smart filly last year. The Goodhope Racing guru is back in numbers this time round and with Justin giving this race a rare miss, it could be time for a double celebration.

W

ith winners getting a 3kg penalty, there are a few runnersup in the ranks who look capable of turning the tables.

Despite the Ramsden power hand, Candice Bass-Robinson could have the final say, in search of her first winner in the race.

The What A Winter filly Clouds

Unfold was a smart debut winner at Kenilworth three weeks ago over the course and distance when beating Carioca by 2.25 lengths after looking beaten in the latter part of the race.

She can only improve and while she has to give Carioca 3kg here, she should still go close.

The second of the Bass-Robinson duo is the Sail From Seattle filly, Western Angel, who also won well first time up a month earlier over the Kenilworth 900m.

Jockey

arrangements suggest she is the lesser fancied of the two, but assessing these young and unexposed horses is a tricky game.

Lanza was beaten on debut by Joey Ramsden's Temp The Tiger and now bumps his conqueror on 3kg more favourable terms. He showed some pace there and his dam won three times over 1200m, which suggests that he could win early.

Pomodoro's son, Royal Italian, was narrowly beaten by Jephthah on debut and with that 3kg turnaround could have the edge on that one.

Carioca is one of two fillies in the race and the daughter of Var could be ready to go close after two nice runs. Clouds Unfold beat her by 2.25 lengths and she now has 3kg on that one.

Twist Of Fate was an impressive debut winner in early January, when beating stable mate Cash Call with

an eye catching late run. The son of Master Of My Fate, is also an impressive physical specimen and could be the Ramsden ace in the race.

Another Ramsden runner is Temp The Tiger, who popped up at 50-1 to beat Lanza on debut. The winning margin was only half a length and he will be tested here with his 3kg premium - but won like something special.

Anton Marcus takes the mount on Cash Call for Ramsden. This one was beaten a length and a half

by Twist Of Fate on debut and is another that can turn the tables.

P E visitor and newsmaking runaway debut winner Carlita, gets thrown in the deep end and enjoys the services of Piere Strydom. She won very well but the quality of her opposition is questionable and we will find out how good she is on Saturday.

Snaith Met Beach Outing

With Cape summer sizzle in somewhat short supply from our Operators this season, leave it to the Snaiths to take matters into their own hands.

e know Snaith Racing sets the bar in terms of PR and marketing, but they exceeded even their own very high standards by arranging a breakfast outing for 13 of their Met Day feature runners to Muizenberg beach last Friday.

Keep it simple Disclaimer - I am not a marketing guru – far from it – but I am a consumer and I do know what I like and what might make me take a second look at something. I instinctively distrust anything with too much tinsel (one always wonders what the unnecessary sparkle might be hiding) and prefer something simple and straightforward, that makes things easy for me to understand and makes me feel part of whatever it is that’s on offer. You know, the old ‘keep it simple, stupid’ (although admittedly in my case it could equally be ‘keep it simple for me coz I’m stupid – or usually ‘so stupidly busy that I don’t have time to process and appreciate complicated marketing offensives’). Like I said, I’m no guru, but if someone can make something easy to understand and make it look do-able for normal, every day folks, well, that makes me feel like I might just be able to enjoy it too.

Of course there’s nothing wrong with making a bit of fuss, but there is seldom much point in gilding a perfectly good lily. Which is why I loved Friday’s beach outing so much.

Being awesome – all in a day’s work Firstly, it wasn’t a ‘special’, oneoff stunt. The Snaiths take their string to the beach as part of their training programme, so the horses know the routine, they know the beach and they know it’s a recreational outing for them to get some fresh air, a change of scenery and to have a gentle splash in the ocean while taking in some lovely scenery. And if they help provide some scenery for the general public in doing so, so much the better.

The thirteen-strong string arrived in the red liveried trucks of Suskia Trading.

As most of the public and press had already arrived and gathered in an expectant huddle, we were all treated to the sight of a succession of beautiful horses stepping politely off the trucks, smartly turned out with their tack and saddle cloths with each horse’s name on.

As making an entrance goes, it was definitely a winner.

Simple, clever, effective and above all,

13

thoughtful – particularly for some of the mainstream press (hallelujah!) who had turned up. As Jono Snaith pointed out when I complimented him on it, you wouldn’t go to a premiership football game and not see the players’ names on their shirts, which I thought was an excellent point. As one of those things that make me go ‘hmmm’, surely our horses (and our public) deserve the same courtesy?

It goes without saying that the Snaith grooms were all beautifully turned out as well, in functional slacks and a blue jacket, to make it all feel organised and cohesive as well as making it easy to spot someone when you needed help.

Horsemanship The next bit of brilliance was the riding panel. Along with Bernard Fayd’herbe on Cot Campbell and Grant van Niekerk on Oh Susanna, Justin led out the string on Snowdance (who seems so sweet and gentle that you want to wrap her up and take her home), his dad Chris (and his errant polo helmet) rode African Night Sky, mum Sue was on Star Express, Andrea Schroder (who ‘wo’mans the Snaith office admin) on Copper Force, Kenilworth Racing’s Teresa Esplin on Master’s Spirit (who, as a foal, famously broke loose from his handlers at Klipdrif – twice – after his sire Jet Master’s death to go and stand on his grave) and Jill Warner (of Carry On Alice fame) on Elusive Silva. Rounding off the group were Krambambuli, Kasimir, Cape Flying Championship hopefuls Sergeant Hardy and Jo’s Bond and

glamorous Cape Derby contender Do It Again.

It is worth a mention that young Thoroughbreds – and perhaps the racing industry in general – is deemed somewhat mad, bad and dangerous to know by the outside world, so what better proof to the contrary than the Snaith A team, manned by a cross section of industry representatives, meandering along a public beach in a fairly determined South-Easter as politely as you like. A real testament to the horsemanship in the yard.

Afterwards, the horses were untacked and the grooms filled the air with shrill whistles as they encouraged their charges to have a well-deserved roll, while cameras clicked and everyone got a chance to get up close and personal with their favourite (or favourites, if you were quick about it). In fact, as one of the press ‘togs’ was disappointed at missing the rolling shot he wanted, Teresa Esplin got the groom to whistle again and the horse happily obliged for a second time. All in a day’s work!

Pride Not to steal the Snaith’s thunder – it was kind, as well as generous of them to treat us all to the outing - but the Brett Crawford string were also at the beach at the same time and it was great for the general public (and press) to see first hand how our top stables treat our horses. It’s the very thing our industry is built around, and yet something that gets missed all too often. As an entirely uncontrived event and simply an example of some of our best, doing what they do best – being good horsemen - it made one pretty damn proud.

I was a huge Ebony Flyer fan during her racing days, so was chuffed to get to pat her 2014 Trippi colt, Cot

Campbell and even happier when I got chatting with his handler, Zolani Xhamle (Patrick) who told me he’d groomed Ebony Flyer as well. I ‘caught’ several of the grooms – who’d had to hand their precious charges over to some of the guest riders for the outing – giving their horses a bit of fuss and telling them how good they’d been afterwards. And most of the riders had brought bags of carrots and even bigger bags of hugs for ‘their’ horses.

Perhaps it’s just me, but it’s those little details that really made it special.

Mainstream?

The mainstream media contingent were super friendly and shared my puzzlement over why our big sports channels don’t cover racing the way they used to. There was also an obligatory photo shoot with some models, dressed in African garb a-la the 2018 ‘Style Ahead Of The Field’ afro-chic Met theme.

new favourites.

Although the team are clearly very proud of their horses and their work, there were no speeches, no tipping, no hard sell – just an opportunity to see the horses – the real stars of the show – in a totally relaxed and unintimidating setting. When I bumped into Normandy Stud’s Veronica Foulkes (breeder and owner of Sergeant Hardy) at the CTICC later that afternoon and said how good her Cape Flying Championship hopeful was looking and how amazing to have a stable that ploughs its own time, money and energy into promoting the sport, she summed it up by saying “It’s a privilege to be involved in such a professionally run stable.” It was a thoroughly well-organised and fun morning, enjoyed with a fantastic and mixed group of media, owners, breeders, bloodstock agents, friends, family and general public.

Digesting it all

I could probably have skipped the girls With our cheeks rosy and our hair in the silly frocks, but OK, it was Miss freshly re-styled by the South Easter, SA and I get the whole Sun International those who didn’t have horses or other / Miss SA pageant connection, so fair pressing commitments to attend to, enough. But what turned the contrived adjourned to the historic Muizenberg and somewhat stale ‘model with a landmark, Casa Labia (whose proprietor, horse’ photo op into a little bit of Countess Labia, had also been part magic for me was Krambambuli – like of the group on the beach).

He might just be able to who haven’t been, did such a good job I highly recommend enjoy it too that Ade van Heerden scheduling a visit. couldn’t help stealing The Countess, who joined us all a few cuddles after they’d wrapped for breakfast, also treated everyone up. If Kenilworth Racing is looking for present to a glass of champagne, new marketing staff, you could do a lot which really turned the morning into a worse than employing Krambambuli as proper celebration – of our horses, our a racing ambassador, but judging by the people and one of the biggest events wistful glances that followed on our local calendar. the horses back onto the To steal shamelessly from the float, everyone left wonderful AFC Championship intro with one or two featuring John Malkovich (and if you haven’t seen it yet, Google it immediately), sometimes it pays to remember that less is more. The ad, being billed ‘a meta thinkpiece’, is about football, but could just as easily apply to horse racing when it describes the game as one of the simplest, oldest stories there is. John Malkovich expands, “The point is - what does football teach us? Anything in the world can happen on that field.

Anything. You always have a chance. We absolutely know it in our bones.”

And that’s exactly what makes racing so special. Anything can happen. And when it’s done right, anyone can enjoy it.

Well done to everyone who undoubtedly worked so hard to put together such a fun and memorable outing and thank you for making me look forward to the Met.

Met

1979 In one of the most memorable finishes ever seen Politician becomes the first horse to win the Met in consecutive years. Racing again under top weight, the strapping chestnut colt, ridden again by Bertie Hayden, barged his way through from an impossible position to beat Festive Season and Beau Art.

1890

1973

The tote is legalised in the Cape. On Saturday, a sum of R75 million will be wagered via Tab on the meeting.

To bolster the interest and raise the standard, the Met is run for the first time at Weight-for-age plus penalties.

1986 The race is run on the old course as the turf on the new course is being replaced.

First time Met winner for Ralph Rixon, Wild West hits a career peak – but jockey Greg Holme drops his whip and causes near heart failure for the connections.

Christie Blom runs second on High Honour. Interestingly, the fifth horse Symbolize, ridden by the late Gary Verne, was saddled by owner-trainer Greg Ennion – who still trains winners out of Milnerton 32 years later.

2002

2017

Sun International commence their sponsorship and the first Sun Met is won by Australian-bred Whisky Baron for Greg Cheyne & Brett Crawford.

2018 WAYNE MARKS

Three racing families dominated the Met over these years. The Lairds, Millards and Kannemeyers won the race 10 times between them. Syd Laird won it twice with Politician in 1978 and 1979 and Alec Laird won it with London News in 1997. Terrance Millard won it with Arctic Cove in 1983, Mark Anthony in 1988 and Olympic Duel in 1991 while his son Tony Millard won it with Empress Club in 1993. The Kannemeyer team, Peter and son Dean, won the J&B Met with Sunshine Man in 1980 then with Divine Master in 1992 and with Pas De Quoi in 1994.

Terrance Millard

As a social function the J&B Met is renowned throughout the country and had become so popular that the gates of Kenilworth racecourse had to be closed midway through the afternoon and the ‘house full’ signs went up. More than 50 000 people had crammed into the picturesque venue.

The race is run at pure weight-for-age for the first time and attracts a capacity field – the first in 24 years.

Politician wins for Syd Laird and Bert Hayden, J&B come on board as sponsors with a stake of R50 000. It was an association that was to become one of the longest lasting in SA sporting history and would last until 2016.

HAMISH NIVEN PHOTOGRAPHY

Milnerton stabled horses caught the train from Milnerton to Cape Town and then took the southern suburbs line to Wynberg, when racing at Kenilworth.

Thorsum bucked the trend. He walked from Milnerton to Kenilworth on the morning of the race, duly won the Met, and then walked back.

1978

2000

Over 130 cars parked in the Wetton Road parking area were destroyed by a fire. The source of the fire is thought to be a cigarette.

Peter Kannemeyer

1986 & 2004 The Met has been postponed twice - once in 1986 due to equine flu, and once in 2004 as a result of African Horse Sickness.

Only one horse has won the Met three years in a row. Jet Master gelding Pocket Power, trained by Mike Bass, won the race in 2007, 2008 and 2009.

The same blue, white and pink silks will be worn by Marinaresco on Saturday. The Silvano gelding is trained by Mike’s daughter Candice, for lucky owner Marsh Shirtliff and partners – which includes the now retired Mike Bass.

Muzi Yeni

Met

W

Muzi Yeni is consistently one of our hardest working jockeys, putting in the miles, the hours and the hard yards to bring home the winners. He currently lies among the top 10 on the national jockeys log and is engaged to ride the Robbie Sage-trained Coral Fever in the Sun Met. He also takes the ride on Vacquero in the $500,000 CTS 1600m.

inning Form sponsored Muzi Yeni is focussing his energies on the Highveld and Kimberley centres and has forged good working relationships with Corrie Lensley in Kimberley as well as the likes of Robbie Sage, Lucky Houdalakis and Paul Peter in Joburg.

His relationship with Lensley has proved particularly successful, with Muzi topping the Kimberley jockey log six times and helping Lensley to notch up two cards of six winners in 2017.

“I’ve always done well there and just keep going,” he says happily. “I’ve got a good relationship with Corrie and I know the track very well, which is an advantage.”

While mostly focussing on the Highveld, Muzi travels to other centres when required. “I still ride in PE every now and again, but I’m not there full time. I’ve been doing a bit of Durban, but it’s been a bit slow since I got back from Mauritius.”

Last year’s catamaran incident was the subject of much media coverage and speculation, but it’s not a subject Muzi shies away from.

“I’d only been there a week and didn’t know anyone and got pulled into it when I was invited on the boat trip. There was a bookmaker on board, so obviously they had to investigate. But it’s been settled and I wasn’t charged with anything.”

Unfortunately Muzi was detained on the island while matters ran their course and the lengthy process put paid to his July ride on Ten Gun Salute - possibly a worse penalty than the Mauritians could have come up with. But what’s done is done and Muzi knows that the best remedy is to work hard and keep focussing forward.

Work Ethic

Muzi is well-known for his ferocious work ethic and he is matter of fact about the rigours of a jockey’s life.

“Racing demands a lot of you. The hours are long - you’re at track from 5am, then you come back and noms come out at 9 or 9:30.

I do my own rides, so I rush back and then focus on booking rides – and that can take a few hours.

Scratchings are at 11am and some trainers only declare a horse and start looking for jockeys at the last minute.

Then you’ve got to get

showered and changed and rush to races. You’ve got to be on course an hour early, so if the first race is off at 1:30, you’ve got to be there by 12:30. The last race is at 5 or 5:30, so you leave at 6pm and get home at 7 – 7:30. That’s for racing three times a week in Joburg and on Mondays I’m in Kimberley. I’ll normally have a morning off where I don’t ride work on a Wednesday and a Sunday. The rest of the week has been spent on horses for as long as I can remember.”

Interestingly, despite the massive workload, he has opted not to have an agent and currently books all his own rides. “I do my own rides because it helps me stay plugged in.

It also means I take responsibility and can’t blame anyone if I miss a ride,” he adds wryly.

Ambitions

What keeps him going?

“To improve and get better at what I do. I’m always trying to get good stats every season. I would like to travel a bit, but I don’t want to leave it too late. If I can finish in the top three on the jockey log, I’ve got a better chance of being able to apply abroad and get into countries like Hong Kong. That’s the goal.”

“If your numbers are good and strong and you finish in the top 4, you get into the SA team. And the more winners you have, the better your chance of getting on the top horses and the better your chance of winning the bigger races.” He won the Gr3

Magnolia Handicap on My Friend Lee on Summer Cup Day and the Listed Swallow Stakes on the Diane Stenger-trained Covered In Snow (the first stakes winner for KZN stallion, Crusade) on 13 January.

“Winning the bigger races comes with those 150 wins you ride a season,” he adds.

2018 Gr1 Sun Met

Muzi has been engaged on the Robbie Sage-trained Coral Fever for the 2018 Gr1 Sun Met. “I’ve been getting support from Mr Sage. He’s put me on horses for Colin Bird and I’ve been building good relationships with some of them. I won the Jubilee with Coral Fever last season, so when I came back, I started riding him in his preps.” The pairing has proved a winning combination as they finished a short head second in the Victory Moon last November, a flying 3rd from a 19 draw in the Summer Cup and another good 3rd to fellow Met contender Cascapedia in the recent Gr3 London News

Met hopes

While everyone would like to win the big race, it is not the only job on Stakes. “So that’s how I got the the day. “When I go to the course ride,” explains Muzi. at a meeting like Cape Town, I’ll “He’s a little bit of a quirky horse probably have 2 or 3 horses on the and gets a bit intimidated under the whole card that I think will go close. lights – he likes to duck - but as a The rest are opportunities to try and racehorse, he’s got a good turn of get them to improve and trainers foot and he’s done hoping you can well in the handicaps.

Sectional Timing ‘Weeks Away’ There finally looks to be some light on the Sectional Timing horizon for South African horseracing.

Last week we reported on a black day for the innovation when testing was halted at Fairview on Monday after devices had become dislodged from horses.

We were subsequently contacted by David Gregory, International Business Director of Equimotion Technologies, who is apparently supplying the

Sectional Timing system to Phumelela. Their slogan, ‘where timing is everything’, may appear to be slightly ironic, given the long drawn out process that has been the promise of Sectional Timing.

Mr Gregory informs us that he hopes ‘in February’ to be up and running at all six Phumelela racetracks.

“There have been some technical issues over the past few weeks, both on and off the track, which we have now addressed and

we will be all systems go in February. I would like to thank the operator Phumelela and the RA for their patience during the testing period of product installation.So it is all systems go to supply the racing industry with fantastic data very soon,” he said.

The Equimotion Technologies website is said to be launching soon. The company’s Facebook page last saw activity in September 2015.

Deon Gives Kenya The Thumbs Up

T

Brendon McNaughton maintained Zimbabwe’s proud record at the Kenya International Jockeys Challenge at Ngong on Sunday.

he International Jockeys’ Challenge Series was introduced in 2015 by the Jockey Club of Kenya and features jockeys from Mauritius, South Africa and Zimbabwe to compete against the locals. The inaugural edition of the challenge, which was also won

by Zimbabwe, proved to be a major success, attracted 7 700 fans.

Deon Sampson represented South Africa and confirmed to the Sporting Post on his return on Monday that, while he had not had the best card of rides, he had enjoyed every moment of the hospitality and that his trip was an ‘eye-opener’.

“I was last there in 2006 and was struck by the way the infrastructure of the country has improved. The roads are better and the place is really beautiful. The only thing that hasn’t changed is the hospitality. Everybody is still so warm and friendly. I made a few new friends

and I will be looking forward to going back. They have big plans with the new Government in place and they do such a great job with old-fashioned equipment.

The passion is there!”

McNaughton (24) made his debut in 2015 in this competition. He joined Dinesh Sooful who represented Mauritius, while the hosts were represented by Richard Kibet.

Currently attached to Kwa Zulu Natal trainer Alyson Wright’s Zimbabwe Satelite yard, McNaughton joined the Zimbabwe jockeys academy in 2007 and had his first ride in March 2009. He rode his first winner on Dream Deal on 22 May 2010. McNaughton was champion apprentice for the 2012/2013 racing season and came out of his time in August 2013.

International Management and Leadership Training for the Thoroughbred Industry

De Kock Cracks Meydan Ice Light The Lights gave Mike de Kock his first win of the 2018 Dubai World Cup Carnival when he triumphed at Meydan last Thursday.

Making his second appearance of the Carnival, Light The Lights accelerated well to win the Mubadala Global Trophy over2000 metres.

Ridden by Christophe Soumillon, the sixyear-old gelded son of Western Winter ran on smartly to score a neck win – despite conceding runner up Blair House no less than 5kgs.

After the win, Soumillon commented, “Mike is a very good trainer, as we all know, and would not be running this horse back after just a week if he was not happy he could produce a run like that. He needed that comeback run last week and I was always pretty happy, but Blair House came there going very strongly, so we had to fight.

This is not a horse who wants to be in front too long, so I was happy to have a rival and a battle because that suits him. He should build on this and go back up in class.”

Mike said: “This win proves again that the South African thoroughbred can hold its own on the world stage. Light The Lights ran to his 111 rating, gave the runner-up 10 pounds and beat him, a remarkable win.”

Racing in the famed yellow and blue silks of Sheikh Mohammed Bin Khalifa Al Maktoum, Light The Lights has now twice in Dubai, having captured the Listed Singspiel Stakes at Meydan last year.

Bred by Hallmark Thoroughbreds, Light The Lights’ half-brother Pack Leader runs in the Gr1 Investec Cape Derby on Saturday.

The dominance of the great stallion Northern Dancer, one of the most influential sires in history, can be well and truly felt in the field for the Sun Met. very single runner has at least one strain of Northern Dancer in his or her respective pedigrees, with a large number inbred to the sire.

Eagle Flies

Legal Eagle (Greys Inn) is inbred to Northern Dancer with his grandsire Zabeel produced by the Nureyev mare Lady Giselle, and Legal Eagle being out of the National Emblem (by Danzig son National Assembly) mare Young Sensation. The latter is inbred to Northern Dancer through Danzig and Lyphard.

Multiple champion broodmare sire Fort Wood (by Northern Dancer son Sadler’s Wells) is damsire of Met contenders Captain America (Captain Al), Elusive Silva (Silvano), Nightingale and Marinaresco (Silvano), while Fort Wood sons Dynasty and Elusive Fort are sire of 2018 Sun Met runners African Night Sky and Horizon, and Safe Harbour respectively.

Sadler’s Wells has another deceased son represented in this year’s Met with six time Gr1 winner High Chaparral responsible for the Gr3 London News Stakes winner Cascapedia. The latter is yet another inbred to Northern Dancer, with her dam a daughter of the Danehill sire Dansili.

Female Line

Oh Susanna is not descended from Northern Dancer in her male line her late, outstanding sire Street Cry being a son of the Mr Prospector son Machiavellian – who, ironically, was from the same family as Northern Dancer, but she is out of a mare by Belmont Stakes winner Touch Gold (by Northern Dancer grandson Deputy Minister).

Another from the Mr Prospector male line, but containing strains of Northern Dancer in his pedigree is former Selangor Cup winner Gold Standard. The son of champion sire Trippi (whose sire End Sweep contains Northern Dancer in his pedigree) is out of Olympic Dam, who is inbred to the sire through Lyphard and Nijinsky II. Reigning champion sire Silvano, sire of 2013 surprise Met winner Martial Eagle-whose full brother Nebula contests Saturday’s race, descends in male line from Northern

Dancer’s Triple Crown winning son Nijinsky II. The son of Lomitas is responsible for four runners in the Met (Marinaresco, Nightingale, Elusive Silva and Nebula), and Silvano also features as broodmare sire of leading hopeful Last Winter (Western Winter). The latter’s pedigree contains three lines of Northern Dancer through Vice Regent (damsire of Western Winter), Nijinsky II and Northfields. The latter, also broodmare sire of Met runner Sail South, is broodmare sire of Cape Fillies Guineas winner Field Flower, dam of Last Winter.

Silvano’s own sister Shina, in turn, is the dam of BassRobinson runner, Horizon.

Inbreeding to one of Northern Dancer’s greatest grandsons, Storm Cat, is a trend enjoying increasing success. This pattern has also resulted in notable international Gr1 winners Harmonize (Scat Daddy) and Lady Aurelia (Scat Daddy), as well as high class filly Pretty N Cool (Scat Daddy) and Sun Met hope Nother Russia (Tiger Ridge) is yet another inbred to that multiple champion sire. By a son of Storm Cat in Tiger Ridge, Nother Russia’s champion dam Mother Russia was sired by Windrush - whose dam was sired

by Storm Cat.

True Blue

However, one of the best adverts in the 2018 Sun Met field for inbreeding to the legendary Northern Dancer has to be Heavenly Blue. The son of champion Australian sire Snitzel has no fewer than five lines of Northern Dancer through all of Danehill, Nijinsky II, Sadler’s Wells, Storm Bird and Nureyev.

Both Redoute’s Choice and Snitzel are closely inbred to the 1964 Kentucky Derby winner and no doubt there will be plenty more horses with such an inbred pedigree as Heavenly Blue in years to come.

Since 2007, the Met has been won by a direct male line descendant of Northern Dancer on nine occasions, with the Kenilworth feature being dominated by offspring of Northern Dancer grandson Jet Master. The latter, now making his mark as a broodmare sire and sire

Northern Dancer of sires, was the sire of the Met winner five year’s running, with Jet Master son Pocket Power and the latter’s own sister River Jetez winning from 2007 to 2010.

Subsequent Equus Champion Past Master gave Jet Master a rare five timer when saluting in the 2011 Met.

Heed The Call

Even when the Met went the way of a horse not descended in male line from Northern Dancer, ie Smart Call - from

the powerful Mr Prospector male line or Captain Al’s Hill Fifty Four, the winner inevitably had at least one strain of “The Dancer” in their make –up. Hill Fifty Four being out of a mare by Sportsworld, whose damsire is Nureyev (Northern Dancer and his second dam is by the Nijinsky II sire Dancing Champ.

Both Smart Call and Whisky Baron, winners of the last two runnings of the showpiece race, are

Farewell Marie Galante VARSFONTEIN recently bid farewell to a very special mare in champion, Marie Galante.

It was especially sad for Susan and John Kalmanson, and Carl De Vos, who hold very fond memories of this feisty little mare.

Marie would have turned 30 this year, as she was born in 1988 – the year that Carl joined Varsfontein. It was a pivotal time for the farm. A new generation was getting involved as Susan and John started taking the

reins at Varsfontein.

Marie Galante turned out to be the kick-start this new generation needed, bringing everyone together and rousing a new excitement around the farm’s breeding operation.

By Varsfontein stallion, Mexico II, and out of foundation mare, Indira, Marie was born when the combined age of her parents was 47 years.

She raced for Varsfontein in Susan’s colours for 3 seasons and ended up with a race record of 8 wins and 6 places from 16 starts – all but 2 of which were stakes races. She achieved the Gr2 Poinsettia Stakes and Gr1 SA Fillies Sprint double twice – in 1992 and 1993. She also ran

courageous places against the colts in the Gr1 Natal Flying Championship, G1 Gilbeys and Gr2 Durban Merchants.

Geoff Woodruff was just starting out as a young trainer at the time in Cape Town and Marie was the second horse Varsfontein sent to him to train.

She was not initially part of Geoff’s Durban string that winter in 1991, and she stayed in the Cape in the care of Penny Bester.

When Geoff lost Rip Curl in his Durban string, he called Penny to ask which replacement horse they should move up to Durban. Penny was confident in her reply, “Turbo Takkies” Marie was the one who had to go.

In Durban, she won her first two races with ease, by 3.5 and 1.5 lengths respectively. Back in the Cape to start her 3yo career, Marie started to show what she was really capable of at the highest level with her win in the Gr2 Southern Cross. Indeed she won six of her first seven races including the first of her Poinsettia/Fillies Sprint double.

She was a courageous race filly and gave the new Varsfontein team enormous fun. Carl explains just how much confidence everyone had in her - “We would hop on a plane to Duban for the day and know we were going to

On The Big Days…

Coral Fever (Judpot) - Gr1 Sun Met Silvan Star (Silvano) & Seattle Gold (Sail From Seattle) - Gr1 Majorca Stakes Search Party (Captain Al) & Bold Respect (Bold Silvano) - Gr1 Cape Flying Ch’ship Western Angel (Sail From Seattle) - Summer Juvenile Stakes (L)

Pocket Power inbred to the diminutive Canadian.

Smart Call’s sire Ideal World is inbred to Northern Dancer, through Nureyev, Nijinsky II and Danzig, while Whisky Baron’s Gr1 winning sire Manhattan Rain -whose halfbrother Redoute’s Choice is the sire of Snitzel, sire of Heavenly Blue, is inbred to the former Kentucky Derby winning Northern Dancer through the latter’s sons Fairy King and Nijinsky II.

collect the trophy. She was that good!”

Marie formed a rivalry with top sprinter Taban.

In December 1992 the South Easter Sprint was moved from Kenilworth to Durbanville due to a flu outbreak. It was probably the biggest crowd Durbanville had ever seen as scores of people, including all the personnel at Varsfontein, came to witness the “match race” between these two star sprinters. In a surprise twist of fate Empress Club sneaked through on the inside to win while Taban and Marie Galante were so focussed on beating each other. It was a memorable moment in racing history.

At the end of her 4yo season Marie retired to stud and produced 8 foals, of which 6 were winners.

In 2005 she produced her last foal and thereafter spent her old age gracing the Varsfontein pastures.

In her lifetime, Marie has seen the growth of Varsfontein – more paddocks, new stables, avenues of trees, and a growth in the broodmare band from 15 to the current 100.

All of this was kickstarted by this very special filly.

Susan Kalmanson closed by saying: “It will be strange not having her around after all these years but at least the memories are still very much alive - and Varsfontein itself is her memorial.”

2018 cape premier yearling Sale PriceS

20-21 January 2018 - Cape Town International Convention Centre

Frankel Colt Tops At R4m A chestnut Frankel colt out of unraced Irish mare Pale Moon Rising topped the Cape Town yearling sale, on a bid of R4 million by John Freeman. Consigned

by Klawervlei, the youngster’s dam is by Kingmambo out of a Danehill half sister to multiple Gr1 winner & sire Pilsudski.

Frankel also showed up as joint-top sire among the fillies, with a R3 million bid from Singapore trainer Patrick Shaw, for the first foal of Australian mare Wandering, consigned by Klawervlei. The yearling’s dam is by Fastnet Rock out of a Montjeu half sister to champion Sagamix, from a solid Gr1 family.

The second-top R3 million bid was shared by three others.

Amanda Skiffington got a Silvano filly out of Irish-bred Fastnet Rock mare Little Fastnet, whose dam Damson was champion 2yo in Ireland. The filly was consigned by Klawervlei, as was another R3m filly, signed for by John Freeman. That was a half sister by Captain Al to French Gr3 placed Hug And A Kiss, their dam a USbred daughter of Giant’s Causeway. The fourth R3m purchase was a Dynasty colt from Drakenstein, signed for by John Ferguson. The sire/horse

The overall sale average was a shade over R500k, with median prices of R300k for both colts and fillies. That makes it the most successful South African sale by a long way in the last eleven months, bettered in the last 12 months only by the equivalent Cape Yearling Sale of a year ago, which had medians of R400k (colts) and R325k (fillies). sire/horse Shenandoah River 16Amhooj Golden Duke 16Princess Nicky 16Lanterns Of Gold 16Summers Sweet Song Duke Of Cards Desired Outcome 16Bastille Belle Dancing Feather 16Lady Kelpie Lady Of Lutetia Duke’s Dancer

SPORTING POST • FRIDAY 26th - SUNDAY 28th JANUARY 2018 d ’s Top Rate Last Week 'S winners incl.

ATING SPEED R WON 10/1

with Steve Furnish

A review of the week's best SPEEDRATINGS

Doing The Business Fairview 15 January With the runners having to contend with a 50km/h cross wind on Monday the times were slow. A pinnacle stakes topped the bill and in what not surprisingly proved to be the faster of the two 1400m events, MIRACLE BUREAU registered his sixth career victory.

Just five went to post and nicely positioned in third, the son of Trippi was always well positioned to strike.

He did so shortly after passing the 200m marker and comfortably accounted for the staying on pacemaker DRAGON FLAME by a length and a quarter.

The faster of the two 1200m races was the graduation plate won by the 4yo OVER DRIVE. Always handy, Justin Snaith’s charge ran on strongly at the business end of the race and got the verdict by a quarter from the running on ARMSTRONG’S BOY (came from the rear).

By far the quicker of the two handicaps over 1900m was the MR91 affair won by the ultra-consistent OLYMPIC POWER. Easy to back at 13/2 on the off, Alan Greeff’s charge was soon positioned close to the pace. He quickened well early in the short home straight and won fair and square from the always handy ROAD TO INDY. TITBITS Having his first outing since relocating to the Eastern Cape, the heavily supported ROBYN-JACK-TWIGG won the maiden plate over 1400m with authority by a length and a quarter.

Straight To The Point

Vaal 16 January They raced on the outside track on Tuesday which meant that all of the races were run down the straight. Three of these took place over 1600m and stopping the clock in the fastest time was EMILY JAY when landing the MR83 Handicap. She got away well when the gates opened and soon up handy raced prominent throughout. She was ridden to lead approaching the 400m pole and just had enough in hand to hold off the gaining COSTA DA SOL. The runner up came from the back and was only beaten a neck.

They also ran three races over 1400m and quickest home here was PRETTY BALLERINA in the MR64 Handicap. Not the quickest into stride when the gates opened, the lightly raced 3yo was positioned in midfield for most of the journey. Once given rein though she ran on best of all and went on to score with authority from the more fancied ALL OVER THE WORLD. The faster of the two handicaps over 1000m was the MR80 affair in which BRIGNUMBERTEN registered his third career victory. Freely available at 11/1 on the off, Roy Magner’s charge raced prominent throughout. He ran on strongly over the final 400m and after a thrilling tussle with the hattrick seeking pacemaker HE’S GREAT (lost whip late), he got the verdict by a neck.

TITBITS

Quick Gains Vaal 17 January They again raced at the Vaal on Wednesday, only this time the action took place on the new classic track. A work rider’s maiden plate over 1200m opened up proceedings and here we saw a very easy victory for the supported TERRONCITO. Making only his sixth racecourse appearance here, the 6yo was soon positioned close to the speed. He put his head in front going through the 400m and after quickly drawing clear won well by four and three quarters.

The MR72 Handicap was the faster of the two 1450m events and here we saw a smart performance from another supported runner in REBUKED. Confidently ridden by replacement jockey Fanie Chambers, the top weight raced ninth TOP SPEED RATINGS of the twelve early on. He ran on best for this WEEKEND of all over the final 400m and won (Ratings shown have already been going away after striking the front adjusted to allocated weights) 100m from home.

FAIRVIEW (FRI) The only other distance to stage Race 1: (1) Seattle Lily 10 more than one race was 2400m Race 2: (6) Lateral’s Flash 5 where SHEET WEAVER was the Race 3: (11) Valentine’s Girl 15 quickest home. Sent off favourite at Race 4: (6) Anglet 84 4/1, Alec Laird’s charge was always Race 5: (2) Bollemakiesie 40 in touch with the leaders. He ran on Race 6: (2) Exelero 80 well over the final 300m and after Race 7: (7) Laters Baby 33 a thrilling tussle with both JUST Race 8: (8) Shady World 48 CRUISED IN and SAVE THE RHINO, he GREYVILLE (FRI) only got the verdict by the narrowest Race 1: (10) Special Force 9 (nb) of margins.

Race 2: (2) Free State 67 Race 3: (1) Prince Ponti 14 (NAP*) TITBITS

The 3yo GOLD DAWN ran on well from midfield when winning the second division of the girls’ maiden 1200m going away by two and a half.

An impressive winner of her latest outing coming into the race, ICE ART again quickened in good style when winning the MR84 Handicap going away.

Let It Rain Kenilworth 18 January Four of the nine races in Cape Town on Thursday were run over 1400m and the quickest home in these was TROJAN QUEST in the MR64 Handicap. Freely available at 10/1 on the off, the confirmed frontrunner was over four lengths clear coming off the bend. He kept on strongly over the final 600m and although the always handy CREAM SODA GREEN did make some headway in the closing stages of the race, he still had a length and a quarter to spare at the wire.

The opening maiden plate for the girls was the faster of the two 1000m races and here we saw a smart performance from the Dennis Drier trained SUNSHINE MIST. Always in the red, the 3yo daughter of Dawn Approach struck the front 600m out. She just did the

necessary from there onwards, and with the rest some four and three quarter lengths adrift, she comfortably accounted for the running on LADYSMITH by a length and a quarter.

The MR89 Handicap was the faster of the two 1800m races on the card and in what proved to be a real thriller, the aptly named 6yo WAITING FOR RAIN registered his sixth career victory. Positioned fourth of the six when the race began in earnest, Piet Steyn’s charge ran on best of all and with just a neck covering the first four home, he got up in the very last stride.

TITBITS The 3yo PERFECT PROPORTIONS won the girls’ division of the maiden 1400m going away with some in hand.

Sequences Extended

Fairview 19 January The midweek ended as it had begun with racing in the Eastern Cape. They raced on the turf this time though and in the afternoon’s feature event, a MR79 Handicap over 1800m, the progressive WIDOW’S LAMP completed a hat-trick. Sent off a well-supported favourite at 15/10, the daughter of Go Deputy was always in touch with the leaders. She was ridden to lead shortly after passing the 300m pole and although TIFFINDELL chased hard in the closing stages of the race, she did have that one held by a length at the wire.

Two of the nine races were run over 1000m and by far the fastest of these was the MR62 Handicap in which the veteran ESS EL KAY completed a double. Easy to back at 11/1 on the off, George Uren’s charge raced second last early on. He ran on best of all at the business end of the race and won going away from the always handy KINGSTON WARREN (led 250m).

They also ran two races over 1200m and quickest home here was LA REBEL in the MR76 Handicap. Another to run on stoutly from off the pace, the Rebel King mare got up in the dying strides to deny the front running HOT N HAZY. TITBITS The newcomer AFRICAN VICTORY couldn’t have been more impressive when cruising clear over the final 250m to score by nine in the maiden plate over 1200m.
