Bond Can Repay Fans

Lightly tried Statute reverts to the sprints

GOLD CIRCLE

Justin Snaith is set to follow a similar programme to the one he plotted in 2017 as the Captain Al mare Jo’s Bond steps up to defend her title in Sunday’s national topliner, the R150 000 Listed KwaZulu-Natal Stakes down the Scottsville 1000m straight.

KWAZULU-NATAL STAKES (L) at Scottsville this Sunday

smart eight-time winner with a host of passionate owners, the Klawervlei Stud-bred galloper has the Gr1 Computaform Stakes at Turffontein on 5 May in the bigger scheme of goals on her radar. She came out last term off a dazzling 1,15 length fourth in the Gr1 Cape Flying Championship behind superstar Carry On Alice to win this race. The theory says she is unlikely then to need this run – although this Sunday’s feature comes up a fortnight later than it did last season. The Gr2 Southern Cross Stakes winner has downed the likes of Carry On Alice at best and must rank a serious contender

to clinch the double. A large majority of the field are opening their SA Champions Season programme and are likely to need the run. Legislate’s smart lightly raced full sister Statute has failed twice to reproduce her sprint form over further and she reverts to the straight track where she has been very effective. She may well be better than rated and deserves a chance to show her paces in this company. Dennis Drier’s yard hit nice form at Greyville last Sunday and they saddle a quartet of runners, headed by course and distance winner Sommerlied – who returns from her blank Cape campaign and an eleven week rest. Back on home turf, the Var stakes winner could prove

more competitive. Paul Gadsby’s Kildonan filly Vision To Kill is one of a quartet of topweights in the capacity field and her course and distance form suggests she be considered for the quartets. The lightly raced Lunar Rush returns from a 15 week break following her last win in a quality handicap on the Greyville polytrack 1200m. Miss Varlicious has won her last two starts on the Greyville poly but has more to do here at these weights. Effortless Reward put in a massive effort over the course and distance 14 weeks ago when beating recordholder Isca. Her form prior to that was a bit in-and-out but she cannot be underestimated.

Anneline has poor recent form but Richard Fourie – who won this last year on Jo’s Bond – is an interesting jockey engagement. Anton Marcus partners the highest rated runner in the field in the 14 week rested Neptune’s Rain. This daughter of Antonius Pius is lethal on home turf. Hashtag Strat is consistent but looks held by Vision To Kill on their Valentine’s Day clash. Anime returns from a 14 week rest, and like her stablemate Via Sacra, who comes back from a 15 week break after her Cape campaign, is likely to need it. Marsala looks held on recent form and may need it after a 17 week break.

Vine Street Star and Captain’s Girl appear to lack the form needed to win this. Queen Of Alamo is the second of the Glen Kotzen duo and returns from a short seven week break following an unplaced effort in a low-key handicap on the Greyville poly – but giving 3kgs and only 4 lengths off last Sunday’’s eyecatching Umzimkhulu Stakes runner-up Twice As Smart. A tricky race compounded by the fitness unknowns of many of them. Justin Snaith looks likely to get his team into top gear and Jo’s Bond is the pick to beat Statute, with Sommerlied and Vision To Kill the dangers.

EC POLY CHALLENGE at Fairview this Friday

PAULINE HERMAN

One down - two to go: Cape Rebel has a wide draw to beat

Regarded as a genuine and honest sort, the Corne Spies-trained Cape Rebel could well go all the way in the East Cape Poly Challenge this season.

n a race weighted on merit rating bands, there are some decent ex-major centre challengers in the line-up to muddy the waters. Lyle Hewitson, the Dippin Blu first-choice jockey, rides Peach Delight. This hard-knocking mare is as honest as the day is long and from a decent 2 draw comes into the calculations. She took Sir Duke all the way to the wire in the corresponding race in 2017 and based on that level of ability at her second run after a rest, following an accident after getting loose, she must be a serious challenger. Trainer Yvette Bremner confirmed on Tuesday that her charge was fit and well, but has plenty of respect for Cape Rebel. All the attention will be on Cape

Rebel who was a fairly surprise winner of the East Cape Poly Challenge first leg – and in the absence of star Juan Two Three, who he beat by half a length, must rate a runner again. The son of Rebel King has sadly drawn out wide though and he has to give 2kgs to the solid mare Sao Paulo who was 2,75 lengths behind in the first leg. That said she has drawn a gate wider than Cape Rebel and has a task on her hands. In the absence on a Mauritius contract of regular Gavin Smith jockey JP van der Merwe, the in-form Warren Kennedy rides the former Joburgbased Prince Of Orange, who showed nicely at his first start on this surface last month. He comes in 2kgs better off with his conqueror there Fire In The Belly, who has to beat a wide draw to

earn on Friday. Course and distance specialist Miracle Bureau is the preference of the Tara Laing stable elect but the son of Trippi is drawn in Uitenhage and will need plenty of luck on his side. Greg Cheyne rides Breakfast Club from the best draw and the son of Visionaire has shown steady improvement in his two starts here since relocating from KZN. Former Joburg racer Dawnbreaker has run two good races after winning on debut here. He was slow away and may have found the first leg too quick after that when staying on for fourth behind Cape Rebel. He runs in the blinkers again and is worth inclusion on best form. The gutsy Cape Rebel faces his biggest challenge to date. Peach Delight is a strong galloping sort, while the likes of Dawnbreaker, Fire In The Belly and Prince Of Orange are dangers. Breakfast Club ran on well last Friday and he will strip fit.

All Weather Triple Crown Friday’s Fairview feature is the second leg of the R600 000 Eastern Cape Poly Challenge. The first leg, the R100 000 WSB East Cape Poly Challenge 1200, was won by the Corne Spies-trained Cape Rebel, who takes the next step here over 200m further. The third and final leg is the R100 000 WSB East Cape Poly Challenge 1600 which is run over a mile on Friday 11 May. If Cape Rebel wins the next two legs, a bonus of R250 000 will be paid to his owner Justin Truter. A consolation bonus of R50 000 is up for grabs if no horse wins all three legs. The only condition is that the horse must win at least one leg and participate in all three legs. Points allocation for the consolation: 1st 10, 2nd 6, 3rd 4, 4th 3, 5th 2 and 6th 1 5% of the bonus will be paid to the winning trainer, 5% to the winning jockey and 0.5% to the winning groom.

Muzi Yeni steers Lobo’s Legend to a smart win

Gr1 SA CLASSIC at Turffontein last Saturday

Soma’s Shrewd Move

Doing The Splits

Veteran trainer Joey Soma pulled an ace out of the pack when stepping the lightly tried Lobo’s Legend up to the 1800m in last Saturday’s R2 million Gr1 SA Classic.

uzi Yeni did the rest to bring the unfancied runner home to cause an upset in a race marred by an accident involving SA champion jockey Anthony Delpech. There was drama at the start when Delpech’s ride Majestic Mambo had his shoes attended to and the bad luck carried through to the race. The Paul Peter-trained colt was stone last turning for home and had nowhere to go when climbing all over those in front of him. Ironically his connections had decided that he tactically needed to take his chances outside of horses. He appeared to clip the heels of Greek Fire and dislodged his rider, who lay motionless on the turf for some time in advance of the ambulance’s arrival. Delpech was found to be concussed and admitted to the Milpark Hospital overnight for observation. The race was run at a decent gallop with Alshibaa stretching the field. Muzi Yeni had Lobo’s Legend in sixth as they came for home and he made his move from behind the

looming Surcharge at the 500m. The in-form Yeni produced Lobo’s Legend at the 400m with a superb effort and the son of Trippi ran all the way to the wire to beat the consistent Surcharge by 1,50 lengths in a time of 110,77 secs. Piere Strydom did an outstanding job to overcome the 13 draw on Surcharge and the son of Gimmethegreenlight ran a cracker in second. Like A Panther was first of the De Kock quartet home. He was a further 0,30 lengths back, with his stablemate Noble Secret also running a game race a short head back in fourth. KZN raider Roy Had Enough had nothing to come late and ran a 4,10 length fifth. A R400 000 Cape Premier Yearling Sale graduate, Lobo’s Legend has won 2 races with 3 places from 6 starts for stakes of R1 360 275. Bred by Klawervlei Stud, he is a son of Trippi (End Sweep) out of the six-time winner Gone Wild (Western Winter). Lobo’s Legend has been largely unexposed so far and he adds to the 2017/18 season 3yo puzzle.

The Maiden 1600m was run at a good pace from the start, which shows just how slow they went early on in the Horse Chestnut Stakes, which was decided in a sprint home. Forget about the ratings, then. They went a brisk pace in the MR80 Handicap over 1400m in the first half of the race, resulting in an overall time per 1000m which was markedly faster than the feature races. The SA Classic was the fastest of the three 1800m features throughout. Interestingly, the first three past the post were virtually in a line at the front at the 400m. The Fillies Classic had a sedate beginning, after which the pace quickened in the middle part of the race. It became a free for all approaching the 400m for a sprint home. The winner’s effort, coming from last, was a reflection of speed rather than stamina. The Jacaranda Handicap was faster early than the Fillies Classic, fell into a heap in the middle part, then was decided in a sprint for home. They set off slowly in the Caradoc Gold Cup and they went a sedate pace throughout. With aerial shots added to the tv-broadcast there are a couple of segments where we had to take licence. They should be very close to the actuals, and are shown with an asterisk*

Our Magical Miler! Gr1 HF OPPENHEIMER HORSE CHESTNUT STAKES Turffontein last Saturday Anton Marcus keeps Legal Eagle focussed as Craig Zackey tries hard on Nother Russia

South Africa’s champion miler Legal Eagle returned to a rousing welcome on Classic Day and made it an undefeated nine-from-nine over the distance with his third consecutive victory in the HF Oppenheimer Gr1 Horse Chestnut Stakes over the Turffontein standside 1600m.

he all-conquering gelding appears to be maturing as well as the champion wines produced on the estate of his birth, and at the age of 6 is showing no signs of losing any of the edge that has taken him to eight Gr1

successes and two SA Horse Of The Year titles. Returning from a ten week break following his 1,65 length defeat in fourth place in the 2000m Sun Met, he was declared 90% fit by SA Champion trainer Sean Tarry – and despite having to make all of his

own running, was good enough to dispose of his seven opponents with a measure of authority. With nobody willing to set the fractions, Anton Marcus took Legal Eagle up to lead Nother Russia at a modest gallop. At the top of the straight, Marcus glanced across to assess Birthday Boy Zackey’s body language on Nother Russia, before setting sail for the winning post. At the 300m, Nother Russia moved up dangerously, but the Eagle is unbeatable at the mile and the gelding dug deep to beat the

Tiger Ridge mare by a quarter length in a time of 98,28 secs. Unagi ran third a further 4 lengths back – and a word of congratulations to the Gary Alexander team for taking their chances with the son of Admire Main, who banked R100 000 for his efforts. Legal Eagle, who has won 13 races with 8 places from 23 starts for stakes of R11 523 375, was bought by Sean Tarry on behalf of former leading owner Markus Jooste for R425 000 at the 2013 BSA National Yearling Sale. Bred by Avontuur, he is a son of

Vodacom Durban July winner Greys Inn (Zabeel) and is out of the sixtime winning Young Sensation (National Emblem)- who was also trained by Sean Tarry. While new part owner Braam van Huyssteen was on track, Legal Eagle breeder’s Avontuur’s GM Pippa Mickleburgh was a notable absentee at the lead-inn. “We have a busy sales month. Our yearlings loaded on Monday so there is really no time for travel. I have great staff but couldn’t risk being away. But I’m so proud of our boy,” she told the Sporting Post in a telephone interview.

Gr1 SA FILLIES CLASSIC Turffontein last Saturday

Takingthepeace flies up under Callan Murray to nab Green Top (Muzi Yeni) in a thriller

The 2018 SA Triple Tiara dream took on a new dimension at Turffontein on Saturday with the Visionaire filly Takingthepeace producing a herculean effort from last to grab the honours in the final stride of the R1 million Wilgerbosdrift Gr1 SA Fillies Classic.

he emergence from relative obscurity of the R280 000 sales graduate, raced by three of the youngest owners in the game, from two-time winner to Triple Tiara princess-in-waiting is the stuff

of marketing dreams. Throw in the role of the 21 year old jockey who has shown an ice cool bmt and the result is a reallife success story that we should be shouting from the rooftops. This is what horseracing is all about!

The glamour and romance is spiced further by Takingthepeace having had to overcome the odds and obstacles of a wide draw and a step up in trip to the 1800m. But she handled all-comers in her stride as she surged up the outside of the long Turffontein standside track to grab victory in the final stride from the gallant Green Top and set up a possible date with history on 7 May. Takingthepeace registered her 5th win from 8 starts and stakes of R1 425 125 by a short head in a time of 111,42 secs. Muzi Yeni’s dream Gr1 double was real as he got Green Top into

a winning position, but that was shattered in a flash. On his way back to the winner’s enclosure after the pull-up, Callan Murray prayed for protection for his ribs after memories flooded back of the Gauteng Guineas winner’s circle elation where he was lifted and squeezed as if he had just scored a World Cup final winning goal by enthusiastic owners Murray Makepeace, Michael Shea and Matt de Kock. The joy this time appeared to have doubled! Takingthepeace was purchased for R280 000 off the CTS Johannesburg

Ready To Run Sale by Form Bloodstock. Bred by Summerhill Stud, the winner, named Sagano at sale, is a daughter of Visionaire (Grand Slam) out of the three-time winner, Lisa Anne (Rambo Dancer). Now the million dollar question. Will she stay the 2450m of the Oaks in three week’s time? Her racing style is in her favour. Her dam won up to 1450m. Her dam sire produced stakes winners up 2850m. That’s something to look forward to! Never mind the R1 million bonus and a page in SA racing history.

Warren Kennedy takes it easy on Just Cruised In

Gr3 BYERLEY TURK Greyville last Sunday

Crawford Eyes Kennedy Cruises In Champions Season Gr3 CARADOC GOLD CUP Turffontein last Saturday

Warren Kennedy made full use of the opportunity of a replacement ride offered by Anthony Delpech’s unfortunate hospitalisation when he steered the consistent Just Cruised In to his first stakes success when winning the R250 000 Gr3 Caradoc Gold Cup over the arduous 2850m.

he well-bred Spring Valley stallion Just As Well was effective from 1000m to 2000m and he has passed this versatility on to his progeny. Just Cruised In showed that he stayed every inch of the 2850m in a race where Anton Marcus hurried things up by taking Kitty’s Destiny around his field to speed matters up at the 1200m. Warren Kennedy was lurking off the pace on Just Cruised In and switched out at the 400m, the 4yo lengthened and drew away to beat Kitty’s Destiny by 2,75 lengths in a time of 185,1 secs.

In a strung out field Odd Rob plodded into third. This win was a bonus for Gavin van Zyl after Bold Eagle’s success in the Protea Stakes earlier on in the afternoon. A 4yo gelded son of Just As Well (AP Indy), Just Cruised In is out of Modraj (Machiavellian). The mare is from the immediate dam line of Urban Sea, therefore the direct family of super sires Galileo and Sea The Stars. This makes him a half-brother to Dubai winner, Alareef. An R80 000 National Yearling Sale graduate, Just Cruised In is a winner of 4 races with 9 places from 17 starts, Just Cruised In has amassed stakes of R435 400.

Double For Murray Chasing Shadows Callan Murray made it a quick feature double at Turffontein on Saturday when the smart Al Danza dug deep to withstand a strong late challenge from Sabina’s Dynasty to win the R250 000 Listed Jacaranda Handicap in good style. Al Danza was relaxed in midfield as Seal My Fate and Return To Power led them for home. The Geoff Woodruff trained 4yo moved up with a double handful at the 400m as Piere Strydom stalked on Sabina’s Dynasty. At the 200m the race was left to the pair but Al Danza always appeared to hold the advantage after getting first run on her opponent and she held on to win by a neck in a time of 111,71 secs. This was a first stakes win for the versatile and talented Al Danza. Bred by Klawervlei Stud, Al Danza is a 4yo daughter of Captain Al (Al Mufti) out of six-time winner Jet Danza (Jet Master). A R350 000 Cape Premier Yearling Sale graduate, she has won 4 races with 6 places from 16 starts for stakes of R467 375.

KZN owner Leslie Logan celebrated a hat-trick of winners at Greyville, capped by an impressive end-to-end score for the smart Querari filly Arianos Shadow, who maintained her perfect record when winning the R150 000 Sentinel Stakes. Mr Logan also owns The Apache’s first ever winner Adorable Analia and the interestingly named Leslie Shadowline, who won the tenth for Robbie Hill. Only seven runners turned up for the 1000m non black-type feature and Richard Fourie rode a typically confident race by taking Arianos Shadow up to lead early. Her six opponents were always chasing and the recent polytrack maiden winner looks to have a nice future, scoring with ease by 2,50 lengths in a time of 58,67 secs. Unbeaten dual winner Crown And Country came on late but had to be satisfied with second. Across Seattle was a further 1,50 lengths back in third. The Narrow Creek Stud bred Arianos Shadow is unbeaten in two starts with stakes of R156 250. A daughter of Querari (Oasis Dream) she is out of the unraced Counting Gold (Count Dubois).

The R250 000 Gr3 Byerley Turk run at Greyville on Sunday gave an appetizer of things to come in the SA Champions Season, which commences next month.

t proved to be a good start for visiting Cape trainer Brett Crawford, who ran first and third. Returning from a break of 10 weeks following his big money CTS 1600 win on Sun Met day, Undercover Agent was conservatively ridden by Corne Orffer, who had him loping along in second and tracking pacesetter, Ryker. In the run for home, Undercover Agent lengthened his stride and slipped down the inside rail as local hope Sniper Shot tried to go with him. At the 200m it was cheque in the bank

for the Greg Bortz and Braam van Huyssteen partnership as Undercover Agent drew away to beat Sniper Shot by 2 lengths in a time of 82,27 secs. The winner’s stablemate White River, who would have found this on the sharp side, came on late for third and 1,25 lengths further back. A R325 000 Cape Premier Yearling Sale graduate, Undercover Agent is a winner of 4 races with 1 place from 8 starts and stakes of a bumper R4 041 875! Bred by Moutonshoek, the winner is a 3 yo son of Captain Al (Al Mufti) out of the twice winning Secret Risk (London News).

Gr3 UMZIMKHULU STAKES Greyville last Sunday

The Lady’s Back! The Dynasty Gr1 winner Lady In Black showed her class in the most exciting finish of the afternoon at Greyville on Sunday.

he Gr1 Thekwini Stakes victress of last term, Lady In Black registered the first win of her 3yo season and looked the class in the twelve horse R250 000 Gr3 Umzimkhulu Stakes field after smart placings in the Gr1 Cape Fillies Guineas and Gr1 Paddock Stakes in the Cape Summer Season. Having her first run in 13 weeks, she came from some lengths off the gallop set by Elusive Heart and looked to be drawing off to an easy win, until challenged by Twice Over filly Twice As Smart. In an exciting duel to the wire, Stuart Randolph looked to gain the ascendancy on the low-key Twice As Smart. But the topweight’s class told when it counted and Lady In Black got the verdict by a whisker in a time of 83,07 secs.

Elusive Heart stayed on doggedly for third a further 2,50 lengths adrift. A R1,1 million National Yearling Sale purchase, Lady In Black made it 4 wins from 7 starts with 2 places and took her stakes to R984 375 – and over and above that also benefitted from the BSA Added Value Stakes Bonus of R87 500. Bred by Willempie Engelbrecht Jnr, she is by Dynasty (Fort Wood) out of the five time winner Mystery Dame (Jet Master). Drier and Veale also scored with the enigmatic Hack Green, who found his form to win a high-class Pinnacle Stakes earlier on the day. Lady In Black looks a nice inclusion in the Charity Turf Challenge permutations for the season.

The Eagle Flies JC PHOTOS

The progressive Bold Eagle knew he was in a race for the first time in his short career when made to fight all the way to the wire to maintain his unbeaten record and win the R200 000 Gr3 Protea Stakes at Turffontein.

Gr3 PROTEA STAKES Turffontein last Saturday

layers who bankered the obvious and staked a claim to a slice of the bumper R5,4 million Classic Day Pick 6 would have had their hearts in their mouths in the final stages of the 1100m feature. After Van Halen and Dewali

had shown the way early, Anthony Delpech cruised up on Bold Eagle down the outside, only to find the maiden Dewali in a galloping mood. With Muzi Yeni riding at the top of his game, Dewali kept finding – and just as Bold Eagle had put the Var colt to bed, S’manga Khumalo produced Cirillo with a dashing late burst.

Delpech never panicked and Bold Eagle maintained his advantage to hold Cirillo to a head in a time of 63,70 secs. Robbie Sage’s Dewali should be an interesting runner in the maidens next time as he ran a great race to hold on for third. While the SA Nursery is a natural next target, Gavin van Zyl’s Bold Eagle

looks to be better over more ground as he matures. “He was not going as well early in the running. He is looking for more at this point. And then he pricked his ears when he got there,” said Anthony Delpech. A dead ringer for his sire Bold Silvano, Bold Eagle was bred by Riyo Stud and is out of the one-time

winning Western Winter mare Inflorescence, and was a R210 000 buy from the 2017 National Yearling Sale. A dual stakes winner of 3 races from 3 starts, he took his earnings to R284 375 and also banked the R87 500 BSA Added Value Stakes Bonus.

Craig Zackey and Pinnacle Peak go all the way to win

Tarry and Bling Strike Early

The old firm of Sean Tarry and recently returned from injury S’manga Khumalo got the 2018 Classic Day feature programme under way when the Captain Al filly Celtic Sea took advantage of her pull at the weights to win the R200 000 Gr3 Pretty Polly Stakes.

eltic Sea, who had finished a smart second on debut to the highly vaunted Mike de Kock galloper Ghaalla, enjoyed a 3kgs allowance at the weights from winners, which included Ruffian Stakes star Dagmar, and she made it count. Settled early as Miss Boomerang led Dagmar and Coyote Girl, Khumalo produced the even money shot Celtic Sea at the 350m with a sustained effort and she drew away to hold Dagmar to 2,50 lengths in a time for the 1100m straight of 63,85 secs. Oratorio filly Cloud Break moved through from the rear and grabbed third, with the winner’s stablemate Urban Oasis running fourth.

Bred by Wilgerbosdrift and Mauritzfontein, Celtic Sea is a daughter of the late great Captain Al (Al Mufti) of the two-time winner Ireland (Mark Of Esteem). The winner is a half sister to Alec Laird-trained Cashel Palace (Fort Wood) who lines up in the SA Fillies Classic later in the day. A R325 000 National Yearling Sale buy, Celtic Sea made it one win and one place from her two starts for stakes of R147 000. She also banked the R87 500 BSA Added Value Stakes Bonus. An SA Champion Sire in 2014, Captain Al registered eight consecutive 2yo sires titles and is one of the most prolific producers of 2yo stakes winners ever to stand at stud in this country. He has 26 lots on the CTS April Yearling Sale and there are a further 17 to choose from on the BSA National Yearling Sale.

Gr3 PRETTY POLLY STAKES Turffontein last Saturday

Gr3 MAN O'WAR SPRINT Turffontein last Saturday

Speed At Peak

Former Eastern Cape trainer Dorrie Sham pulled off the biggest win post her move to Gauteng when the lightning fast Pinnacle Peak went all the way to upstage the more fancied runners and win the R250 000 Gr3 Man O’War Sprint at Turffontein on Saturday.

hen the talented young Craig Zackey woke up on Saturday with thoughts of celebrating his 23rd birthday, a gift of a win in the Gr3 feature was probably not high on his wish list. But the former SA champion apprentice had Pinnacle Peak out in the John Finlayson silks in a blitzing attack of aggression from the jump and he was never headed. That despite drifting across the track from his outside 14 gate, to win down the inside. The horse who won his maiden at Fairview at 14-1 registered a smart Vaal victory at his penultimate jump to show he can hold his own in the local hierarchy.

He went on to beat the consistent Down To Zero by 2,20 lengths in a time of 62,93 secs. The Gimmethegreenlight filly Green Plains threatened late and ran a decent race to grab third. The fancied Mustaaqeem never showed and ran a disappointing race to finish last and some 7,85 lengths behind. Bred by the Narrow Creek Stud, Pinnacle Peak is a son of the red-hot Querari (Oasis Dream) out of Pinnaquin (Count Dubois). He has now won 3 races with 2 places from 6 starts for stakes of R288 775. A Gr1 winning son of champion sprinter and world leading sire Oasis Dream, Querari has 16 lots on the CTS April Yearling Sale, and 26 yearlings on the 2018 National Yearling Sale.

SPORTING POST • FRIDAY 13th - SUNDAY 15th APRIL 2018

Adam Marcus

After a disappointing end to the 2016/17 season, Adam Marcus has gone back to the drawing board and his new strategy has seen him flying up the winners to runners statistics. We visited his Milnerton training yard to see how he’s done it.

hile the last season might not have panned out as he’d have liked, few things are wasted on Adam and life lessons are certainly not one of them. As the old adage goes, it’s not the challenges life throws, but how one deals with them that counts.

New Approach Adam has used the opportunity – for what is adversity if not an opportunity wrapped in different clothing? – to take stock. He has refocussed his energies, rationalising his string into a tightly selected group to offer focussed attention to each individual and optimise his statistics. While it was not entirely painless – rationalising is never easy - the strategy is paying off, delivering a particularly successful recent run as well as rewarding him with one of the highest strike rates in the country. “There’s been a big transition in the yard,” says Adam. “I had been focussing on trying to expand, but sometimes you need to take a step back and make some adjustments befor eyou can move forward. Particularly in Cape Town, you can’t get away with carrying horses that are not performing and I decided to cut down on the number of runners and focus on getting my strike rate up instead.”

Change Is Good He implemented the new regime at the start of the new season. “Any horses that were in their place or not earning, I’ve either moved on to a weaker centre or retired to good homes. It’s been hard and the horses I’m left with may not be super stars, but they are all competitive in their division and I’d rather have a higher strike rate than lots of horses in the yard with no results,” he says firmly. It has been tough as Adam gets very attached to his horses, particularly as so many of them are his father’s homebreds and therefore more or less part of the family, but it has also brought a sense of relief. “My dad has always liked to help around the yard, but officially retired last July. He wanted to retire at 60, and ended up extending it a bit, but when we got back from Durban, he cut back his time in the yard. He now only comes every second Sunday and Monday to give me a break, so I still get the best of both worlds.”

Reaping The Rewards The

strategy

started

paying

dividends at the beginning of 2018 and his stats for his last 30 runners in March reflected 11 winners, 5 seconds and 5 thirds, giving him a 37% win and 70% place strike rate. “I did get a bit of stick from some quarters, saying I was racing for target practice, but when I looked at the programme after that, I’d run out of horses!” he says wryly. “We’ve worked ourselves up to the highest strike rate in the Western Cape and the 6th highest in South Africa. Even though we’re not winning big races and trophies, we’re doing our horses proud.”

A Boy And His Horse(s) With the visiting trainers gone, Adam’s corner of the Milnerton training centre is quiet and tranquil. Adam has taken advantage of the additional space by spreading

out, separating the string into age groups, keeping the fillies and colts in separate groups and also matching up stable mates so that fussy horses get a quiet corner or a placid neighbour and every horse is happy in its stable. It makes for a relaxed, happy yard, where horses snooze happily while grooms efficiently dispense with the daily chores. Adam is happiest walking round the yard, adjusting a magnetic boot here, noting the odd cut or scrape there and absent-mindedly dishing out pats and wither scratches as he assesses and assimilates every detail. This meticulous, hands-on approach has earned him some big hitting clients and he has found particular favour with stud farms wanting to produce fillies for stud, taking his time with a late or backward individual and the occasional difficult horse that needs just that little bit extra time, patience and TLC to coax the best out of them. “I might be young and up and coming, but I like to think people see that I’m well educated, level headed and have the ability to be professional. It does help coming from a racing family, but I

don’t think it would have made any difference to the way I do things.”

Delpech Accident – NHA Doing Enough? Mr Who?

An unknown Greyville Racecourse security officer was probably oblivious to his moment in the sun at Kenilworth on Saturday, when Brett Crawford trained a personal first Jackson winner.

The shocking accident involving SA Champion jockey Anthony Delpech and the fancied Majestic Mambo in Saturday’s Gr1 SA Classic has led to an inquiry being opened by the National Horseracing Authority.

he rather brief reference in the official stipes report that ‘an inquiry will be opened to establish why Jockey A Delpech was dislodged from Majestic Mambo at approximately the 350m’ is a sad and faceless footnote to a risk that our jockeys face on a daily basis. The high-riding Delpech, who only a fortnight earlier rode SA Derby winner Al Sahem at the Dubai World Cup meeting, was diagnosed with a disc herniation and a damaged spinal cord and underwent an operation in the Milpark Hospital in Johannesburg on Tuesday morning. An emotional trainer Paul Peter, who saddled Majestic Mambo, said that he was shocked and saddened by the accident.

“Anthony is a true professional and a good friend of ours. This is such a tragedy and a devastating blow. Our best wishes go to him and his family. It just serves to underline again what a dangerous life our jockeys live. Every time they throw their leg over a horse they run the risk of injury. I don’t want to comment on the circumstances of the accident. These things happen. That’s racing.” As to the condition of Majestic Mambo, Peter said that his charge was shaken but had no physical damage. “It can be psychologically traumatic for a horse and I have kept him off the track for a few days. We will be monitoring him. For now plans are still on track for the SA Derby but that can change,” he added. Following other accidents, the

he R100 000 Charity Turf Challenge is an exciting competition that offers fans of the sport of horseracing a unique opportunity to test their skill. The aim of the Charity Turf Challenge is to select a team of horses you feel are most likely to score points during the official period of the Champions Season. A list of all the Graded races will be provided and whilst the emphasis remains on these feature races run in KZN, ALL winners throughout the country will be eligible to earn points. Racing South Africa, the competition host, will provide a

list of horses that are thought to be campaigning in KZN during Champions Season. Only horses from this list are eligible. The number of entries per list has been increased from 10 to 12, but only the top ten point scorers from each list will be considered for the final points tally. Too often selections fall out of the running for any number of reasons and we hope that the increase to 12 entries will give entrants a greater chance of competing for the top prize. For the first time since the competition began, the Premier’s Champions Challenge Day will be included in the competition adding

Grand National - Jump Spectacular The Randox Health £1 million Grand National will be run at Aintree on Saturday. The great steeplechase will have 600 million television viewers worldwide and was first run in 1839. The race also has a historical connection with the Cape. Kiora, who ran in 1904, was in a shipwreck off the Cape Town coast in 1899 and was rescued after being found alive perched on a rock. Impress your friends with your knowledge with these trivia shorts, courtesy of the Daily Star. Aintree racecourse is named after an

ancient Viking settlement, where every tree was felled apart from one, giving the name “Ain Tree”. A record 66 horses lined up in 1929 but the 1883 race attracted a mere 10 starters. Mr Frisk (1990) is the fastest horse to complete the race, getting round in 8min 47.8s. The greatest number of horses

to finish was 23 in 1984 when Hallo Dandy won. Red Rum is the most successful horse, winning the National three times – in 1973, 1974 and 1977. Runners jump 30 fences over 4 miles, 2 furlongs and 74 yards. The Chair is the tallest fence at 5ft 2in and the broadest. This was so named as it was once alongside the seat used by the distance judge. The late Dick Saunders is the oldest rider to win the National on Grittar in 1982 when he was 48. Bruce Hobbs was the youngest to win, aged 17, in 1938. Watch the race live on Tellytrack (Dstv 239) at 18h15

Crawford, who guided Jackson through his sensational track career, was celebrating his personal first winning progeny of the son of Dynasty when Mr Crumford stormed home at his second outing to win a cracker for Craig and Ross Kieswetter and Ridgemont Racing. The handsome 2yo colt was partnered to victory by Greg Cheyne and beat hot favourite Frank Lloyd Wright with ease. Brett Crawford was tagged ‘Mr Crumford’ by the Greyville security officer and the Kieswetter brothers just had to name a horse after the misnomer. Jackson, who was the top lot sold from the 2010 Emperors Palace National Two Year Old Sale, was an

exceptional racehorse. This was his second winner. Trained by Brett Crawford, Jackson won six times, and earned over R2.3 million, during a career which saw the handsome colt thrash champion Variety Club in the Gr1 Investec Cape Derby. Jackson also won the Gr1 Daily News 2000 and G1 Champions Cup, and won or placed in a total of nine graded races. A son of Horse Of The Year, and four time Equus Outstanding Stallion, Dynasty, present day Highlands-Ridgemont stallion Jackson was one of three graded stakes winners produced by the Cozzene mare Moonlit Prairie. Mr Crumford, who was squeezed and ran unplaced on his Durbanville debut, was purchased by Ridgemont Stud for R90 000 off the 2017 CTS March Yearling Sale. He was bred by Morne de Villiers and is the third foal of Captain Al mare, Sovereign Flo. Jackson, who got off the mark quickly with a winner from his early first 2yo’s, has 11 lots on the BSA National Yearling Sale. Amongst a choice selection is his son Leicester Square (Lot 146), who is out of a 3 time winning half-sister to champion and outstanding broodmare First Arrival, while Jackson colt Hidden Legacy (Lot 197) is out of a stakes placed half-sister to British Gr1 winner Stradivarius, a leading contender for major races once again in 2018.

SHORT HEADS

Title Race Reigning SA champion Anthony Delpech’s sad accident on Classic Day and the chances that he will be oﬀ for an extended time has thrown the SA jockey title race wide open. Apprentice Lyle Hewitson was on 103 winners with Muzi Yeni on 93 as we went to print. With Gavin Lerena also sidelined, there are probably a further ten riders with an outside chance at least of making up the leeway to challenge for the prestigious title over the next four months.

Baby Boom

There is nothing like the price of nappies to lift a jockey’s game and after the birth of a bonny son recently, Sean Veale’s two winning rides for Dennis Drier at Greyville on Sunday were out of the top drawer. The veteran trainer admitted to having just about given up on the Gimmethegreenlight gelding Hack Green – until a set of blinkers and an inspired Veale broke the one-time boom galloper’s 20 month losing run.

Chart Topper Former Joey Ramsden galloper Hard Day’s Night, bred by Tim Bootsma, was a ﬁrst stakes winner for his sire Warm White Night when winning the 2015 Gr2 Selangor Cup here. The gelding won his third race in Mauritius at the weather delayed second meet on Sunday, when scoring an easy feature win in the 50th Anniversary Of Independence of Mauritius Cup under Sunil Bussunt. He was saddled by Rameshwar Gujadhur.

Snitzel Soars

After thirty six weeks of the 2017-18 Australian racing season, Arrowﬁeld Stud's reigning Champion Sire Snitzel has boosted his all-time Australian record progeny earnings to over $24.9 million following the brilliant win of his son Trapeze Artist in last weekend's $2.5 million Gr1 TJ Smith Stakes in Sydney.

ON TOP OF THINGS? Our 2015 Gr2 Charity Mile winner Bouclette Top had his twelfth start in Mauritius in November 2017, yet is reﬂected in the latest NHA racing calendar 117/37 as having retired from racing on 10 February 2016. In March 2016, in the face of growing welfare concerns, the National Horseracing Authority of South Africa took decisive action in the matter of racehorse retirement. The admin is not backing the talk, it seems.

O On A High Avontuur sire Oratorio enjoyed winners both at home and in Ireland this weekend, and he is also broodmare sire of a promising Australian based 2yo. His son Have A Nice Day scored the 10th win of his career when landing the D Hotel Handicap at Dundalk on Friday. On Friday evening another well- bred son Cue The Music romped to an impressive win on debut as the sixth juvenile winner for his sire this season. Earlier in the afternoon Oratorio daughter Our Fair Lady won at Fairview. On Saturday another daughter Cloud Break ran 3rd in the Gr3 Pretty Polly Stakes at Turﬀontein. O is also damsire of 2yo Paquirri, who won Saturday’s Gr3 Kindergarten Stakes at Randwick. Recently represented by his 50th individual stakes winner, Oratorio has 13 lots at this week’s April Yearling Sale, and a further 22 lots at the 2018 Emperors Palace National Yearling Sale.

MARCUS’ MILERS Anton Marcus has been associated with some top milers in his illustrious career in the saddle. Who would be remembered as the best? Legal Eagle won his sixth Gr1 mile on Saturday. Variety Club and Empress Club won ﬁve Gr1 miles apiece. The great Jet Master won four.

Time Will Tell Nadeson Park’s Redoute’s Choice stallion Time Thief has ten lots on this week’s CTS April Yearling Sale and enjoyed a pleasing update courtesy of his Gr1 winning daughter In Her Time who was the casualty of a self-admitted badly judged ride by her replacement rider when being left with too much to do as she stayed on for third in the Gr1 $2.5 million Darley T.J. Smith Stakes at Randwick on Saturday.

If she wins on Saturday, Winx extends her world record haul of Gr1 ﬂat-race wins to 18, she equals the winning sequence of Black Caviar of 25-straight races and she moves to A$18.9 million in prizemoney. Rising 7 and having her 35th start, will this be a champion curtain call?

A review of the week's best SPEEDRATINGS

Plenty To Celebrate

Distance Suited

Turffontein 2 April The only distance to stage more than one race on Easter Monday’s inner track card was 1200m. The MR72 Handicap was the faster of these and here MOSS GAS completed a quick double. She got away well when the gates opened and soon up handy raced prominent throughout. She was ridden to lead shortly after passing the 300m marker and kept on strongly late to beat the running on BLACK BISCUIT by three quarters. A MR90 Handicap over 1600m topped the bill and here victory went to the easy to back OH MY DARLING. Allowed to ease right out to 8/1 from 9/2 at the track, the daughter of Western Winter was always handy. She ran on strongly at the business end of the race and got the better of a thrilling tussle with CIRCLE OF LATITUDE by a neck. The progressive 3yo MARDI GRAS in the MR82 Handicap over 1450m was the best bet on the card for Sporting Post, and the son of Oratorio didn’t let down his supporters. Sent off a clear favourite at 16/10, Mardi Gras was always well positioned to strike. He did so going through the 400m and went on to score with authority by three. TITBITS

Durbanville 3 April Four of the eight races at the country course on Tuesday were run over 1400m and stopping the clock in the fastest time amongst these was TALITHA BOREALIS in the MR74 Handicap. Easy to back at 6/1 on the off, the daughter of Ideal World raced in midfield during the early part of the race. Once in the straight though she ran on best of all and under a well-judged ride from Bernard Fayd’Herbe she got up late to beat PERFECTPROPORTIONS by a half. The only other distance to stage more than one race was 1600m where marginally the faster of the two handicaps was the MR68 affair won by FOXY PRINCESS. Nicely drawn in gate two, Paddy Kruyer’s charge was soon positioned close to the speed. She put her head in front going through the 400m and kept on strongly late to beat the running on HOPEFUL by three quarters. A maiden juvenile plate for the girls over 1400m had opened up proceedings and here we saw a smart performance from the Candice Bass-Robinson trained GO THE DISTANCE. Another to race handy, Go The Distance put her head in front approaching the 300m marker and drew clear easily in the closing stages of the race to score by four and a quarter. TITBITS

The 3yo CALS CRUSH completed a smart hat-trick when winning the MR88 Handicap over 1000m going away.

Lightly raced HARVEST WIND ran on well from midfield when getting up late to win the maiden plate over 1400m.

Well Weighted Fairview 4 April

They raced on the poly track on Wednesday where a half of the afternoon’s eight races were staged over 1000m. The MR88 Handicap was by far the fastest of these and here victory went to the very well weighted ZEVENASTIC. Racing off a mark some 15 points below that of his earlier best, the 4yo son of Rebel King raced in the rear of a small but strung out field early on. He ran on strongly from halfway and won going away after striking the front 60m or so from home. The faster of the two 1200m events was the graduation plate won by the Justin Snaith trained LIBRA. Soon up handy, the daughter of Twice Over put her head in front shortly after passing the 200m pole and with the rest well beaten she comfortably accounted for GAME GIRL by three

Riding High Vaal 5 April A MR94 Handicap topped the bill at the Vaal’s outside track on Thursday and in what proved to be the fastest of the three 1200m races victory went to the 3yo PREMIER SHOW. Sent off favourite at 4/1, Clinton Binda’s charge was always handy. He ran on strongly over the final 400m and just got the verdict by a neck over the running on REBUKED. The two 1400m events were both maiden plates and by far the faster of these was the boy’s affair in which the friendless newcomer TOP RANK caused an upset. Freely available at 44/1 on the off Geoff Woodruff ’s charge led throughout. He kept on strongly at the business end of the race and won with authority by two and three quarters.

Just 1/100th of a second separated the winners of the two 1600m handicaps. The MR68 affair was the faster and here the stable of Geoff Woodruff were again on the mark when BUSH PILOT registered his second career victory. Confidently ridden by replacement rider Keagan De Melo, the Judpot gelding sat in midfield for most of the journey. He quickened well when the race began in earnest and won comfortably by two and a half after striking the front 150m from home. TITBITS Making her twenty second visit to a racecourse here, FLYING FALCON was taken straight to the front, and in what proved to be a good time on the day, won well by a length and three quarters.

Watching Brief Greyville 6 April As has become the norm, they raced on the poly track on Friday evening. Four of the nine races on the card (including the barrier trial) were staged over 1000m and comfortably the fastest of these was the MR80 Handicap won by the improving Visionaire filly WE’RE WATCHING YOU. She got away well when the gates opened and soon up handy raced prominent throughout. She put her head in front going through the 200m and won well by a length and a half from the always held JE SUIS SILVER. The two 1800m races were both handicaps and surprisingly the quicker of these was the MR62 affair won by the easy to back BURNBURRY. Freely available at 8/1 on the off, the Atso mare was always positioned close to the speed. She ran on strongly in the short home straight and got up late to deny the uneasy joint favourite SITIA. Sporting Post’s Top Bet CUE THE MUSIC was sent off a strong favourite to land the opening maiden juvenile plate over 1000m, and without any fuss he did the business. Nicely positioned in fourth as the nine runners came off the bend, Dennis Bosch’s charge ran on strongly in the straight and despite racing green, he won with authority by two and three quarters. TITBITS Trying the distance for the first time, lightly raced CASSIUS COLT didn’t find the clearest of passages in the home straight when a running on third in the maiden plate over 2000m.

A Question Of Leadership

If you’re not winning, you’re learning

Not that there’s ever much of a dull moment in racing, but it’s been an interesting few months even by our own standards.

owever, a subject that rather leap-frogged all that just recently, was the Australian cricketing scandal. While one more or less expects funny business in government (this is Africa, after all) and business (see above), we hold sport and our sportsmen in higher regard and expect them to aspire to excellence while conforming to the noble principles of fair play. Wikipedia defines sportsmanship as “an aspiration or ethos that a sport or activity will be enjoyed for its own sake, with proper consideration for fairness, ethics, respect, and a sense of fellowship with one's competitors.” In the interests of full disclosure, I should come clean and admit that I have absolutely zero interest in cricket and probably couldn’t tell Cameron Bancroft from Cameron Diaz, but I am interested in seeing how incidents of this nature are handled. From that perspective, Cameron Bancroft tampering with the ball during the third test against South Africa on 28 March has been incredibly interesting.

Manning Up

After the collective sharp intake of the world’s breath, we continued holding it to see what would happen next (apart from the media storm). Firstly, there was an acknowledgement of the error, the heartfelt apologies and a raft of resignations (I know, actual manning up and accepting responsibility – weird, right?) In Steve Smith’s now famous press statement, he said, “My integrity‚ the team’s integrity‚ the leadership group’s integrity has come into question and rightfully so." It was interesting to hear Smith acknowledge the importance of two issues - their integrity and the integrity of their leadership, particularly given the adage that the role of Australian cricket captain is the second toughest job in the country behind that of being the prime minister. I’m not in a position to comment on that, but what is certainly true is that human beings have a habit of generalising and even if they’ve never picked up a bat, ball or run out on a pitch in their life, Australia as a whole is currently wearing the problem too.

Drawing A Line

When someone messes up – particularly on this scale – there is an expectation that leaders (decisionmakers / regulators) will ensure that consequences will follow and Cricket Australia - God love them – took the lead on imposing swift and decisive punitive measures. It sent a strong message and allowed a measure of respectability to be clawed back – not all Australians are cheats (obviously). But people want a firm line drawn and a distinction made between the two because they don’t want to be tarred with the same brush.

Perception Becomes Your Reality

Rather interestingly, shortly afterwards, I happened across an April Fools joke about South African racing published by an Australian site and some of the comments expressing their opinion of South African racing were rather alarming (although the irony was certainly not lost on me). But it was sobering to read how people regard our industry and by association, myself. For example, the fact that someone has to kick and scream (and continues to have to do so) for things like first timer comments and barrier trials is staggering. What is more staggering is that it is for the very good reason of trying to remedy the fact that the rest of the world thinks we are crooked. The fact that we cannot understand that fact for the ginormous ugly wrecking ball that it is – THAT is what should scare the crap out of us. So that made me think about those lines in the sand and the people who are supposed to draw and maintain them.

Why Rules?

The reason rules and structure and effective implementation is important is that it reassures people that there is some kind of order in the world, that someone is in charge

of keeping that order and that transgressors will be dealt with and removed in order to keep the playing fields level for the rest of us. And if it doesn’t? People feel aggrieved. And rightly so. There were some uncomfortable parallels to be drawn with what’s been happening in local racing recently and it made me think about the subject of leadership and what it means.

Why Leaders Eat Last

One of the most popular current speakers on leadership is Simon Sinek (and if you haven’t listened to any of his work, drop whatever you are doing immediately and look him up – you can thank me later). In his excellent presentation ‘Why Leaders Eat Last’, Simon explains that leaders are made, not born. He motivates this by distilling human behaviour down to some simple biology and four major chemicals – endorphins, dopamine, serotonin and oxytocin and the rather complex way these help individuals and societies function. It was also interesting to hear Simon say that business and relationships are not rational. “They're about feeling safe, they're about feeling we belong.” Humans have evolved to find value in group living and group working. When we live in groups, it makes good sense to conform to a hierarchical structure. That means someone has to sit at the top. Because we live in a materialistic society, we often judge status based on how much money people make. Simon explains that

while a conspicuous display of wealth leader is deeply ingrained in how may raise one’s status (triggering a humans function and we are entirely rush of serotonin), it will feel great, but comfortable ascribing special because there was no corresponding treatment to our alphas. However, relationship attached, it feels the flip side of the coin is that in hollow. “That's why we keep trying exchange for that special treatment, to accomplish things and accumulate there exists a deep seated social more and more material goods, and contract that we expect our alphas yet we never feel successful because to sacrifice themselves to protect the there was no relationship. We rest of the group when the occasion tricked it.” Also, people who accord demands it. leadership status According to to people merely Simon, “If you're It sent a strong message not willing to give based on their and allowed a measure up your perks when material wealth, are probably also being of respectability to be it matters, then you tricked. probably shouldn't clawed back Leaders are get promoted. the ones who You might be an give us their time and give us their authority, but you will not be a energy - not the ones who give us leader. Leadership comes at a their money. According to Simon, cost. You don't get to do less work “Giving money doesn't count. It just when you get more senior, you have biologically doesn't work.” That’s to do more work. And the more serotonin at work. We put a premium work you have to do is put yourself on time, because it is an equal at risk to look after others. That is commodity and it is the anthropological an non redeemable definition of what a We expect our alphas commodity. You leader is.” to sacrifice themselves spend money, you When people make money - you are afforded all to protect the rest of spend time, you the perks and the group when the never get it back. special treatment occasion demands it That’s why we put a of being a leader, premium on people but fail to fulfil who give us their time and energy. their responsibility when required, it Doing things for people that requires results in a great deal of anger. As one to sacrifice a little bit of time Simon says, “They're supposed to and a little bit of energy - something sacrifice themselves for us, never you will never get back – that’s what sacrifice us for themselves. This is counts. why we're angry and offended and don't trust them. They failed.”

Social Contract

The concept of the alpha or

Are We In Crisis?

I think it’s fair to say that local racing is facing a crisis of leadership and it’s possibly (probably) why dear old head office is always fielding so much flak. We’ve seen 100 year old trees vanishing, champion owners going *poof* (although their colours have not) and others staying when they probably shouldn’t; foreign objects flying into and out of saddle cloths, data going who-knows-where and pesky starting stalls (and / or starters, depending on who you ask). We’ve seen strange betting moves on a first timer belonging to the head of our regulatory body no less, some nifty new camera equipment at Turffontein for Classic day (although dare I say it, perhaps this money could have been better invested in our emergency services) and my personal favourite, some truly bizarre marketing attempts including linking horse racing and boxing (!), offering free water when you place a bet (sure to be a winner in the parched Western Cape) and then the prospect of winning a cow! (quick, someone, hold me down!). Of course, try and find out who’s responsible, and you’re either treated to the sounds of silence or the fastest game of passing the parcel since primary school birthday parties, before your rendition of the sounds of silence. When our leaders do not put themselves at risk to look after others (not themselves), they are not fulfilling the responsibility of the alpha. And then we’re angry and offended and don’t trust them. They have failed.

SPORTING POST • FRIDAY 13th - SUNDAY 15th APRIL 2018

The legacy of Ethane was well and truly felt over the weekend, with her name cropping up in big race winners in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres.

he is the fifth dam of Saturday’s Gr1 HF Oppenheimer Horse Chestnut Stakes winner, Legal Eagle (Greys Inn). The latter, unbeaten in nine attempts over a mile, has now banked over R11 million in prize money, with the shrewdly campaigned Legal Eagle having captured eight Gr1 wins thus far. While the Mehrali sired Ethane may not have achieved much as a racemare - she won just once over 1000 metres - the mare more than made up for it at stud. From 13 foals, Ethane left behind nine winners, including the outstanding half-brothers Hawaii (Utrillo II) and William Penn (Netherwood).

High Hawaii Hawaii was a champion in both South Africa and the USA, and enjoyed a highly successful stud career, with his progeny including Epsom Derby winner, Henbit, and Kentucky Oaks winner, Sun And Snow, while his paternal halfbrother, William Penn, was also an outstanding racehorse, whose victories include five races officially classified as Gr1 races. William Penn, who returned to racing after a brief stint at stud, also beat his illustrious half-brother Hawaii when second in the 1968 Durban July (William Penn was conceding Hawaii 4.5kgs on that occasion). In total, Ethane’s tally of winners included five official black type winners and she is the ancestress of numerous other high class racehorses. She is also third dam of Gr1 Allan Robertson Fillies Championship winner, Fair Model (Model Man), and fourth dam of Cape Derby hero, Bold Chieftain (Singh). The high class stakes winners Al’s Dancer (Al Mufti), Gulliver’s Travels (Hard Up), and brilliant sprinter, Military Song (Song Of Songs), are others descended from Ethane. Ethane herself descended from one of the true pillars of the stud bookIlluminata. The latter produced 2000 Guineas and Epsom Derby winner, Ladas, and the influential 1000 Guineas winner, Chelandry, whose numerous high class descendants included champion Australian sire, Magpie, dual English classic winning filly, Saucy Sue, St Leger winner, Book Law, and important sire, Tudor Melody.

Justified Her brilliant son Hawaii occurs twice in the pedigree of one of the world’s

most talked about three-year-olds. The unbeaten Bob Baffert trained Justify (Scat Daddy) made it three wins from as many outings when romping to a three length win over early Kentucky Derby favourite Bolt D’Oro (Medaglia D’Oro) in Saturday’s G1 Santa Anita Derby. He now looks a leading contender for the 2018 Kentucky Derby, the first leg of USA’s Triple Crown. Justify carries Hawaii through both his sire Scat Daddy and broodmare sire Ghostzapper. Scat Daddy is a grandson of the very successful stallion, Hennessy (produced by the Hawaii mare Island Kitty), while Ghostzapper, (one of the most brilliant and versatile racehorses produced in North America), traces back in female line to Hawaii’s very successful daughter, Sailaway. Should Justify win the 2018 Kentucky Derby, he will not be the first horse to do so carrying the name of Hawaii in his pedigree, with 1992 Kentucky Derby winner, Lil E Tee (At The Threshold). being a grandson of the above mentioned Sailaway.

City), whose six wins included the G1 Ballerina Handicap. Island Kitty’s son, Shy Tom (Blushing Groom), was a dual G3 winner in the US, finishing second in the G1 Man O’War Stakes. Shy Tom

Sailway’s name, and thus Hawaii’s, look to live on in major pedigrees for years to come with her descendants include the hugely successful halfbrother sires, Ghostzapper (Awesome Again) and City Zip (Carson City), both of whom have a number of sire sons at stud. Ghostzapper is also shaping up as a broodmare sire of note, with Justify the third G1 winner produced by his daughters. Other standouts produced by Ghostzapper mares include US champion sprinter, and now Japan based stallion, Drefong (Gio Ponti) and Test Stakes winner, American Gal (Concord Point). Hawaii’s grandson, Hennessy, also appears in the pedigree of Saturday’s impressive G1 Ashland Stakes winner, Monomoy Girl (Tapizar). The latter, a first G1 winner for her sire, is out of the mare Drumette, a daughter of the Hennessy sired dual G1 winner, Henny Hughes. Henry Hughes made his mark as the sire of multiple US champion and triple Breeders’ Cup winner, Beholder. (Hennessy’s champion son, Johannesburg, is enjoying considerable success as a broodmare sire, and is damsire of recent G3 Robert Lewis Stakes winner, Lombo, dual Oaks winner, Seventh Heaven, and G1 winner and promising KZN sire, Crusade). Hennessy’s own dam, Island Kitty, a sister to Cape Flying Championship winner but poor sire, Springing Leopard, was a smart racemare who won four and who was third in the G1 Matron Stakes. At stud, Island Kitty produced not only US Champion 2YO Sire, Hennessy, but also Pearl City (Carson

Scott Bros stallion The Apache celebrated his first winner when the Gavin van Zyltrained Adorable Analia stormed home to shed her maiden at her third start at Greyville on Sunday.

R120 000 National Yearling Sale graduate, the Rosedene Stud bred 2yo is out of the one-time winning In The Money mare, Idilic Charm. She won the 1400m contest in the Leslie Logan silks from a wide draw and looks a filly set to go over more ground. It was appropriate that Gavin van Zyl saddled The Apache’s first winner as he guided the son of Mogok throughout his illustrious career on South African soil. The Apache has gone full circle as he was bred by Scott Bros at their Highdown Stud, from resident stallion Mogok out of Apache Rose (by Dolpour). He went under the hammer at the 2009 BSA Two Year Old sale and was knocked down for R80 000 to Winston Chow. Being earmarked for export to Hong Kong meant that local conditioner Gavin van Zyl had to plan his colt’s career carefully, as Hong Kong Jockey Club rules preclude imports of horses

with more than 17 starts. The Apache progressed rapidly, winning his maiden at the third time of asking and soon proved himself in stakes company, winning the Gr2 Dingaans in November 2010 by 1.25 lengths. Sheikh Mohammed Bin Khalifa Al Maktoum purchased a 50% interest in the colt and he set sail for Dubai in early 2012, having been declared Equus Champion 3yo Colt and winning six of his 15 starts and accumulating R1,9 million in stakes, including the Gr1 Daily News and the Gr1 Champion Stakes, a fourth place finish in Igugu’s 2011 Durban July and a sixth in the 2012 J&B Met, beaten under two lengths by the star mare. His debut for the Mike De Kock yard was his first in almost a year, and he lined up in the Gr2 Al Rashidiya over 1800m on the Meydan turf under Christophe Soumillon on 31 January 2013. The pair hit the front about 200m out to deny Godolphin’s City Style by three quarters, giving Mike a record fifth career win in the race.

contender for the Kentucky Oaks. Could the name of Hawaii be found in both the Kentucky Derby and Oaks winners this year?

His next outing was the Gr1 Jebel Hatta on 9 March 2013, where he took on stable mates Masterofhounds and Igugu. It looked all over at the 200m mark, but then Godolphin’s talented filly Shajjhaa swooped to beat him by a narrow 0.75 lengths. The Apache followed up with another good second in the Gr1 Dubai Duty Free on World Cup night, again being denied by the Godolphin runner by 1.75 lengths. The Apache then boarded a plane for the UK, where he ran 4th under Pat Cosgrave in a Gr2 Sky Bet York Stakes on 27 July 2013, finishing 4 lengths behind the talented Mukhadram from the William Haggas yard. Mike de Kock’s main objective for the colt had always been the Gr1 Arlington Million and by the time The Apache landed in the United States, he had completed five long distance flights and visited four countries in just over a year! The 31st running of the Gr1 Arlington Million over 2000m took place in Chicago on 17 August 2013 and will no doubt live on in racing folklore. The Apache crossed the line ahead of nearest rival Real Solution, only to lose the race on objection in the boardroom. The Apache went to stud having raced in SA, UAE, UK & the USA for 7 wins from 1600-2000m at 3 to 5, for earnings of R17 million. The Equus Champion 3yo colt reached a Timeform rating of 120 at peak. The Apache has one lot (#328) in the final session of this week’s CTS April Yearling Sale.

TURFFONTEIN - INNER TRACK

• The track is right handed, with a circumference of about 2400m, a long sweeping bend, and a homestraight of just over 500m. Races from 1400m to 1800m start on the back straight, races over 1200m and 1000m come out of separate chutes on the bend, similar to the Turffontein (old) outer course 1400m. • The effect of the draw seems likely to be significant in races over 1400m, where the start is close to the bend, and also in the sprints where runners are on the bend from the break. • Turffontein is widely considered to be one of the stiffest tracks in the country, because of a steady climb from the middle of the bend to the entrance of the final straight. The effect of this on the sprinters in 1000m and 1200m races might be significant, as they have to climb right at the beginning of their races. This could result in races run slowish early on, from which front runners will benefit in the shortish straight. Alternatively, if the pace is on from the start, a certain measure of stamina seems likely to be required to see out the distance.
