Gr2 GAUTENG GUINEAS at Turffontein this Saturday

T

Sun Met winner Rainbow Bridge’s undefeated half-brother Hawwaam takes his first step to SA Triple Crown glory at Turffontein on Saturday as he takes on fourteen rivals in the R1 million Gr2 Gauteng Guineas.

he SA Triple Crown offers stardom and a R2-million bonus for any horse who can win the Guineas, SA Classic and SA Derby in the same season.

Fresh off his great Gr1 Cape Derby surprise in the same Sheikh Hamdan silks with Atyaab at Kenilworth on Met day, Mike de Kock comes to the party with a four-pronged attack, headed by Hawwaam.

Hawwaam is unbeaten in three starts with his most spectacular win coming in

the Gr2 Dingaans over this course and distance. It was only his second start, and the son of Silvano, from a bad draw and coming from last, ripped through his field to win going away by over 3 lengths. The Tony Ruffel Stakes was run over 1 400m – a distance on the sharp side for him - but he displayed class to get up and beat longshot Inexhaustible.

While the PE raider National Park is the obvious threat, De Kock stablemates Alyaasaat and Barahin are no slouches. Met winner Anton Marcus has been engaged to ride the

Gr2 Golden Horseshoe winner Barahin which hints at some confidence seen that the colt has been rested 30 weeks and has his first start as a 3yo.

Alyaasaat gave National Park 2kgs in the Graham Beck Stakes but was royally trumped by close on 9 lengths by the PE star. His run to older horses in the Joburg Spring Challenge suggests that this Dawn Approach colt be given another chance.

De Kock also has Arlington’s Revenge in the field. The son of The Apache has improved nicely with 3 wins from 6 starts but now takes on the big guns.

Yvette Bremner’s cracking Graham Beck Stakes winner and SP top-rated National Park is back for more from the 1 draw – and with a new jockey in the shape of Cape ace, Richard Fourie.

While well beaten by Hawwaam in the

course and distance Dingaans, National Park showed his well-being with a nice win against senior hardknocking handicappers at home three weeks ago.

Sean Tarry has three runners in the field in Against the Grain, Vontreo and Zillzaal.

Smart Against The Grain has decent consistent form but now takes a step up.

Vontreo has drawn wide and received 2kgs and a 0,70 length beating by Hawwaam in the Tony Ruffel Stakes.

The best of the trio could be Lyle Hewitson’s mount, the lightly raced Zillzaal, who produced a fair post-maiden effort for third behind last season’s SA Derby winner Hero’s Honour. He is unexposed but highly regarded and is something of an unknown quantity.

Of the balance, the Chesney van Zyl duo of Marchingontogether and Stream

Ahead would have place chances at best. Poorly drawn, Marchingontogether looks held by Chijmes, while Stream Ahead was well beaten by Hawwaam in the Tony Ruffel Stakes – but will be more at home over the extra.

The Listed Sea Cottage Stakes winner Chijmes gave apprentice Denis Schwarz his first feature success there and is a very decent front-runner, who holds Green Haze.

Candice Dawson’s Approach Control and Geoff Woodruff’s Owlinthetree are both recent maiden winners with scope to improve.

It comes down to a shootout between the visitor National Park and the exciting Hawwaam, But the race doesn’t end there with chances to Alyaasaat, Barahin (depending on fitness) and Zillzaal.

Mike de Kock bids for a double in Saturday’s R750 000 Gr2 Gauteng Fillies Guineas after Takingthepeace’s good win last term.

He saddles a trio of runners, headed by Ipi Tombe Stakes winner Nafaayes in the Wilgerbosdrift SA Triple Tiara opener.

daughter of Exceed And Excel, the lightly tried Nafaayes caught the eye on Summer Cup day with a good feature win.

Prior to that, she showed nice pace when beaten 2,20 lengths into third behind Ronnie’s Candy in the Starling Stakes. Now 2kgs better off, Ronnie’s Candy, a winner of the SA Fillies Nursery last season, has proven to be slightly inconsistent but will enjoy the

mile test where she can be settled and run at them late. Corne Orffer, who was aboard at her Starling victory takes the reins again The 2yo stakes winner Celtic Sea showed some flicker of better form at her third start as a 3yo when staying on under 1,50 lengths off Hawwaam in the Tony Ruffel Stakes. She is bound to improve again back in her own sex company.

The Solskjaer filly I Like It almost pulled off a major shock when she took

Ghaalla all the way to the wire in the Fillies Mile in November. She showed that she stays well with a good win over The Sash last time over the Turffontein 1800m.

Second of the De Kock trio, Storm Destiny found her winning form when staying on strongly to get up in the Three Troikas las time. She is drawn wide here but will appreciate the extra and looks to have solid scope for improvement.

Paul Matchett’s Running Brave has run some fair races and showed nice resolve when fighting on late to be beaten narrowly beaten by Storm Destiny in the Three Troikas. On best form, she is not far off Ronnie’s Candy.

Dagmar showed pace and ran a fair fifth in the Three Troikas but has lost her smart 2yo form.

Chitengo has improved nicely when

tried over ground and comes in here on a hat-trick bid. This is a step up in class and she would have to be at best to feature.

The widely drawn Railtrip appears to have lots her promising earlier form.

The Secretariat Stakes winner Cordillera has won two from four and was outpaced when well beaten in the Swallow Stakes. The mile should be more her game.

PE visitor Just Chaos was well beaten in the Cape Fillies Guineas in December and now has her first run in Gauteng from a wide draw.

Saints Alive is the third of the Tarry trio. She has a nice draw in her favour but will need to improve on her poor Three Troikas effort when beaten by 12 lengths and finishing last.

Perfect Tigress has drawn very wide and stayed on strongly for third in the

60.0 ( 7) 22/1 60.0 ( 2) 13/1 60.0 ( 4) 36/1

Three Troikas Stakes. She could enjoy the extra.

Vistula stayed on well for fourth behind Storm Destiny in the Three Troikas Stakes. She has a wide draw to overcome.

A wide draw is a negative in the case of the smart looking Silvano filly Blossom, who has won two from three and now steps into the feature arena.

She is an Ormond Ferraris trained daughter of a past Triple Tiara winner and so has plenty in her favour!

Scent Of Evening has done little wrong in two starts – winning on debut ad then chasing Blossom home at the Vaal last time. She is difficult to assess but must have scope.

Another tricky race with little to choose between Nafaayes and Ronnie’s Candy. Celtic Sea and Storm Destiny look the immediate dangers.

Anton Marcus drives Rainbow Bridge clear – second placed Do It Again is out of the pic

Gr1 SUN MET Kenilworth last Saturday

R

Jockey Anton Marcus won his third Met and set a South African record for stakes earned on one afternoon when he produced a polished performance to get the Ideal World gelding Rainbow Bridge home as trainer Eric Sands celebrated his icebreaker in the Cape’s historic flagship race.

iding his 100th Gr1 winner on African soil, Marcus, who registered his first Met winner 26 years ago on the Millard ‘Galloping Goldmine’ Empress Club, had taken the plunge, and a medium-term tactical decision, to abandon his long time champion partner Legal Eagle in favour of the younger and progressive Rainbow Bridge.

It was a move that paid handsome dividends on a sunny festive Kenilworth afternoon that saw the past SA champion bank over R7,85 million by winning the big race, as well as the two CTS races – for Sean Tarry and Vaughan Marshall, respectively.

Partnering Rainbow Bridge for the first time, Marcus had the high-class gelding twelve lengths off the gallop set by Head Honcho who led Milton, Made To Conquer and 2018 winner Oh Susanna, with Doublemint further back and Tap O’Noth trying to get in to some groundsaving space from his wide draw.

Into the home run, Head Honcho continued to gallop powerfully as Marcus looked for a split on Rainbow Bridge, with Do It Again cutting a path from behind him down the inside.

With Tap O’Noth leaning on to Rainbow Bridge and the fit Head Honcho plugging away up front, Marcus maintained his nerve as the seconds ticked out. But the back to best Rainbow Bridge was sitting with a double handful and he sliced through.

Keagan de Melo was pushing Head Honcho out, but Rainbow Bridge was in full flight and the 4yo drew away to hold the late challenge of Do It Again by 0,75 lengths in a time 122,96 secs – the second fastest in the last six runnings after Whisky Baron’s 122,71 secs carrying 2kgs less in 2017.

Strongly fancied to grab the JulyQueen’s Plate-Met treble, Do It Again had the tables turned on him by being given plenty to do – and arriving too late. There can’t be much between the two 4yo’s next

time they meet again on similar terms.

Head Honcho did all the donkey work and looked a possible winner inside the 250m – he finished under a length off the winner to maintain his consistent form.

Ridden quietly from midfield due to his stamina doubts, Undercover Agent moved at the same moment as Rainbow Bridge but stayed on without threatening the top three to deny the gutsy 7yo Legal Eagle (2,25 lengths) for fourth.

Legal Eagle, ridden differently, was not disgraced and he could yet be a force in the Highveld Season.

SA Horse Of The Year Oh Susanna (3,80 lengths) had every chance in bidding for her double but had nothing to come late in the race.

The 2017 Cape Guineas winner Tap O’Noth (7,50 lengths) was the last runner to collect a cheque – an expense covering R50 000 in tenth position.

The hardknocking forward galloper Milton never got into any leading position and finished tailed off.

Anton Marcus said it meant a lot to him but he knew it meant even more for the family of the late Chris Gerber.

“I had my reservations about the trip but he felt so good. Jumping off Legal Eagle was one of the hardest decisions I have made. I got lucky with Rainbow Bridge,” he added modestly.

Eric Sands, who was winning his first Met after 36 years in the training game, said there were so many people to thank.

“I am so pleased for everybody. The patience has paid off with this horse.

He will have a break now,” he added.

Representing the late Chris Gerber, Colin Gordon thanked breeders Wilgerbosdrift and Mauritzfontein.

“Chris (Gerber) loved buying their horses. Anton is such a professional. And Eric and Helen and their whole team have done a

great job with Rainbow Bridge.”

A R300 000 National Yearling Sale buy, Rainbow Bridge was bred by Wilgerbosdrift and Mauritzfontein and is a 4yo gelded son of Ideal World (Kingmambo) – whose second Met winner he was after Smart Call in 2016.

The winner is out of the versatile seventime winner Halfway To Heaven (Jet Master), whose successes included the 2013 Gr3 Prix Du Cap. There is a very sentimental connection to this family for Eric Sands, who trained the dam for Gavin Walker until she was sold to Mauritzfontein, in whose silks she raced for Mike de Kock until the end of her career.

Rainbow Bridge has won 6 races with 2 places from 8 starts for stakes of R3 632 500.

A great day – superb weather – a large crowd – and a fairytale for the Gerber and Sands families.

Stipes Talk To Fourie

After a glorious summer season and three good winners on Sun Met day – including a Gr1 success – top jockey Richard Fourie was called in by the Stipes to explain his ride on beaten big race favourite, Do It Again.

The stipes report says: Jockey R Fourie (DO IT AGAIN) appeared before the Board with regards to his ride on this gelding. He explained to the Board that the gelding had not travelled to his expectation in the early stages and having raced with cover he had to encourage DO IT AGAIN from the 600m, which was far earlier than he had expected. This had resulted in him entering the straight about four lengths off the eventual winner, which was more than he had envisaged. DO IT AGAIN had then proceeded to hang out in the straight when encouraged. His explanation was noted.

Slowly run early, the Sun Met was a very false paced affair. The pacemaker Head Honcho did step on the gas on the bend, and recorded the second fastest time in that segment. He had the field very strung out at the top of the home straight and came very close to stealing it. Winner Rainbow Bridge, racing 8th coming off the bend, had a good 13 lengths to find, and Do It Again was a further 2.5 lengths behind him. Not surprisingly the final segment was the slowest of the seven races around the turn.

The Cape Derby was not a fast run race, but there was at least a fairly even tempo throughout.

Wide open going through the 300m, the Gr1 Majorca Stakes was slowly run early before developing into a sprint.

Diego De Gouveia celebrates a career first Gr1 win as Atyaab finishes too well for Charles

Gr1 CAPE FLYING CHAMPIONSHIP Kenilworth last Saturday Richard Fourie has Kasimir in control

Gr1 CAPE DERBY Kenilworth last Saturday

Snaith's De Kock’s Fun Gr1 Flyer In The Sun Four winners, including a Gr1 victory, is probably a quiet Met day by Justin Snaith’s standards. But the SA champion would have gained particular pleasure with a superb plan come together in the shape of the Captain Al gelding Kasimir, who was crowned the king of speed with a scintillating win in the R1 million Betting World Gr1 Cape Flying Championship.

T

he yard won the race last year with Sergeant Hardy, who ran unplaced on Saturday.

Fine planning and a well considered programme formulated six months earlier to capture the pinnacle of the Cape summer season speed programme fell into place in under 58 seconds when the 2018 Merchants winner catapulted through down the inside under Richard Fourie to catch the leaders Pleasedtomeetyou, Bold Respect and Pacific Trader.

Inside the 150m marker, Kasimir had taken control and the progressive 4yo showed the benefits of superior fitness and fine tuning to beat the Gr1 winner Bold Respect by an easy 1,75 lengths in a time of 57,56 secs.

The runner-up’s stablemate Search Party stayed on well for third, ahead of another Brett Crawford runner in Pacific Trader, who lacked punch late.

The consolation of three of the top four cheques would have been of some minor compensation to Brett Crawford who endured a mostly frustrating big day.

Sean Tarry’s 7yo Trip To Heaven came from the clouds to grab fifth slot in an eyecatching performance.

Kasimir is a R1,2 million Cape Premier Yearling Sale graduate and took his earnings to R2 355 875 at his fifth win with 6 places from 13 starts.

Bred by Drakenstein Stud, he is a son of deceased champion sire Captain Al (Al Mufti).

This was the 4yo’s first stakes success. He is out of the top-class Gr1 producing threetime winner Aquatint (Peintre Celebre).

Kasimir will pay to follow in the SA Champions Season up in KZN, where the Gr1 Golden Horse Sprint and Gr1 Mercury Sprint are likely targets.

I

Mike de Kock produced the magic with his lone Met day runner as Atyaab finished too strongly for his ‘B Division’ opponents to grab the lion’s share of the stake in the R1 million GBets Gr1 Cape Derby.

n typically charismatic straightshooting mode, De Kock quipped that he had listened to the Under Starter’s Orders Show on Tellytrack on Saturday morning and thought his horse had been scratched.

“They didn’t mention him. Firstly we don’t come to Cape Town with our buckets and spades to lie on the beach in our mankinis.

And this was little better than a B Division field to me. It made sense to give it a try as we felt that the first two legs of the Triple Crown would be too strong for him in Gauteng. He is a horse looking for 2400m,” said the multiple champion trainer Outpaced early, Atyaab was back of midfield from his wide draw. Diego De Gouveia had him relaxed, as the filly Helen’s Ideal brought them for home.

In the rush for home, Atyaab became quite tight between Helen’s Ideal and the improved again Charles. But Diego De Gouveia, now a fully fledged jockey, kept his cool and maintained his balance to outstay

his field and grab his first Gr1 success.

He beat the big-ticket Charles by a neck in a time of 124,06 secs, with Herodotus a further 2,25 lengths away in third.

The favourite Bunker Hunt appeared to have every chance but missed the Place Accumulator, to run fourth History showed again that it is tough for the fillies to win the Derby. Helen’s Ideal ran a gutsy race to only fade late, while Santa Clara was unsighted.

Atyaab , who has won 3 races with 3 places from 7 starts for stakes of R859 437 will now be aimed at the SA Derby.

An A$260,000 Inglis Easter purchase for Shadwell from the Arrowfield Stud draft, he is from the first crop of High Chaparral’s champion son Dundeel and is a half-brother to stakes-winner Vesper and the fifth winner from Gr2 winner Sylvaner.

Atyaab races in the famous blue and white silks of Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid al Maktoum, who also owned the 2015 Cape Derby winner Ertijaal.

First Gr1 For What A Winter

Aldo Domeyer reaches for the clouds as he salutes the large crowd

Candice Bass-Robinson celebrated her first Gr1 success with Nightingale in the 2017 Majorca Stakes and she was back in the Majorca mix at Kenilworth on Saturday.

T

Gr1 MAJORCA STAKES Kenilworth last Saturday

hat was courtesy of the terrific What A Winter 3yo Clouds Unfold, who continued her march up the ladder with a top-class victory against the best of her sex. The Majorca Stakes has been a first league stomping ground for the very best of the fairer sex in South African horseracing history with the likes of star gallopers Fast Piece, Met winner Olympic Duel, July dead-heater Dancer’s Daughter, the top-class Ebony Flyer and in more recent years Dynasty star Beach Beauty dominating the honour roll.

And for Candice, Saturday’s major win – a maiden Gr1 winner for Drakenstein stallion What A Winter – was a massive emotional and psychological strike and a tribute to her famous Dad. She was but a humble assistant in the years that the brilliant multiple Equus Champion What A Winter achieved his 15 wins from 1000m to 1600m under the guidance of one of the legends of the Cape turf.

On Saturday, Clouds Unfold came in off a perfect prep, she settled beautifully and disposed of three of the best around in last year’s winner

Snowdance, the top class Lady In Black and unbeaten 3yo Front And Centre, to register a victory that suggests that the world is her oyster.

Aldo Domeyer rode a peach of a race and had Clouds Unfold beautifully settled, as the talented Snowdance took the fight to her opponents and led her field ahead of Goodtime Gal and Fiorella.

At the 300m , the writing was on the wall for Snowdance as the challenges came from all round.

With Lady In Black and the athletic Front And Centre challenging through the middle, Domeyer sent

Gr2 STAYERS Kenilworth last Saturday

the white-blazed Clouds Unfold up the outside rail and the chestnut filly came of age properly in front of the ecstatic crowd to grab her biggest success, beating the year older Lady In Black by 1,50 lengths in a time of 98,06 secs.

Front And Centre lost her unbeaten record but absolutely no dignity, going down a head for third, with Fresnaye shading the disappointing Snowdance for fourth.

The Drakenstein Stud-bred Clouds Unfold is a first Gr1 winner for treble Equus champion sprinter What A Winter (Western Winter). She is out

of Montelissima, a Montjeu halfsister to Listed Summer Juvenile Stakes winner Arria and Gr2 Senor Santa Stakes third Pivotal Pursuit.

Clouds Unfold’s second dam Issa is a full-sister to unbeaten Yorkshire Oaks winner Catchascatchcan, dam of Breeders’ Cup Mile winner and former Highlands Stud sire Antonius Pius.

The winner took her stakes bank to R1 458 125 with her sixth win from eight starts and 1 place.

She looks an exciting SA Champions Season prospect.

Miss Honey On Simply The Right Path Magnificent

T

The 2018 Algoa Cup winner Magnificent Seven showed that he will be a factor in the SA Champions Season staying features later this year when he outgunned his opposition to win the R400 000 New Turf Carriers Gr2 Stayers at Kenilworth on Saturday.

here were some stamina doubts about the 4yo Horse Chestnut gelding’s ability to go the 2800m, but consistent galloper demonstrated the long legs required.

Tucked in midfield as Let It Rain and Walter Smoothie showed the way, Fayd’herbe brought Magnificent Seven up the outside rail at the 250m with a sustained run and despite a threat from the Ramsden filly Dynasty’s Blossom late in the race, Magnificent Seven was too strong and he went on to win by 0,40 lengths in a time of 179,92 secs.

The winner’s more fancied stablemate Strathdon was given too much to do and

finished with a rattle to secure third 1,25 lengths behind Dynasty’s Blossom.

Cedar Man, who was thereabouts all the way, stayed on well enough for fourth and shaded Gimme One Night – another who came from miles back.

A R140 000 KZN Yearling Sale graduate, Magnificent Seven races in the colours of Durban July winning owner Nic Jonsson and has won 4 In a row – this being his second consecutive stakes success – with 7 wins 5 places from 17 starts for stakes of R849 950.

Bred by James Armitage, the winner is by Horse Chestnut (Fort Wood) out of the unraced Model Man mare, Kartanya – a full sister to Pratique.

Cape heavyweight rider Bernard Fayd’herbe returned from Dubai in fighting trim and rode three winners on Sun Met day – including a feature double - the first leg of which was the R150 000 Tattersalls Listed Summer Juvenile Stakes.

ayd’herbe rode 2017 July winner Marinaresco in his opening Dubai World Cup Carnival start at Meydan last Thursday evening and returned home to fulfil his big day engagements.

He had the Candice Bass-Robinson trained Miss Honey well off the pace set recent runaway maide winner Emerald Band and PE visitor Wild Move early on.

At the 350m marker Miss Honey began making ground smartly down the inside and she got up in the shadow of the post to nab the free-striding Emerald Band and win by a neck in a time of 59,15 secs.

PE visitor Brandina ran a cracker to grab third a short head away at just her second

start, with Warrior Tiger staying on well after checking late, to run a decent fourth.

The winner’s fancied stablemate Vandah’s Spirit, who had won impressively on debut three weeks earlier, had no finish and plodded into sixth position and 3,80 lengths off the winner.

Bred by Highlands, the winner is a daughter of the Sandown-based Ridgemont Highlands stallion Pathfork (Distorted Humor) out of the one-time winner Honey Bun (Fort Wood).

She was purchased for R90 000 by Sean Tarry off the CTS April Yearling Sale and has won 2 of her 3 starts with 1 place for stakes of R152 050.

11 One World stretches clear to win easily

THE CTS 1200 Kenilworth last Saturday Anton Marcus has Cirillo well in control

THE CTS 1600 Kenilworth last Saturday

Worlds Apart

Money, Money, F Money

Anton Marcus set a new benchmark for stakes earnings by an individual jockey on Sun Met Day, and after winning the CTS 1200 on Cirillo, he was back in the payout queue on One World in the CTS 1600.

reshened up after losing his unbeaten record behind Soqrat and Twist Of Fate in the Cape Guineas last time out, One World was in his old galloping mood on Saturday.

Brought over so casually from his wide draw by Anton Marcus, he grabbed the initiative early on and was never headed.

The Riverton Stud bred Pomodoro colt Cirillo has proven a genuine moneyspinner for owner Chris van Niekerk. He took his earnings to over R4,3 million on Saturday – without having won a stakes feature in his 12 starts to date.

T

he stakes placed galloper was astutely dropped back in distance by trainer Sean Tarry after running a well beaten fourth in the Cape Guineas behind Soqrat at his last start. He had won the R2,5 million CTS Ready To Run Stakes in November at his penultimate start.

A popular Pick 6 banker, Anton Marcus had Cirillo in touch with the leaders in the R5 million CTS 1200 for much of the race as Temple Grafin and Celestial Storm showed the way.

At the 350m marker Marcus brought the consistent colt up the outside and he bounced away from his field with only Elusive Trader putting up any resistance.

At the line, Cirillo won under the hands by

3,50 lengths in a time of 71,02 secs.

Elusive Trader tried hard but had no answers, with Seventh Sea and Joburg visitor Palace Chapel rounding off the quartet.

In the big money sales race, another Joburg visitor in Joey Soma’s Comaneci squeaked into fifth to bank the R200 000 final cheque.

The enigmatic Gr1 winner Van Halen disappointed again, finishing well downfield.

Trained by Sean Tarry for his leading owner Chris van Niekerk, the R300 000 Cape Premier Yearling Sale purchase has won 4 races with 6 places from 12 starts for stakes of R4 311 750.

Bred by Riverton Stud, Cirillo is by Pomodoro (Jet Master) – who won the July in the same silks – out of the Lake Coniston mare, Miss Wordsmith.

The ever game Twist Of Fate moved up under new rider S’manga Khumalo at the 300m and looked dangerous for a few strides – but he had no answers to the machine in the blue and white silks who motored away down the rail.

One World held off Twist Of Fate to win by 1,50 lengths in a time of 96,79 secs.

Vardy came out of the bunch to bank third cheque ahead of Dan Katz’ 100-1 shot Skye Lane who boosted the quartet.

The final cheque of R50 000 went to Majestic Mozart, who again stayed on well – without threatening.

A Klawervlei bred, One World was another winner on the day for Captain Al and is out of the UK placed Aquilonia (Giant’s Causeway).

One World cost R425 000 on the Cape Premier Yearling Sale and took his earnings to R3 136 250 with 6 wins and a place from 7 starts.

Captain’s Salute The enormous influence of our late great champion sire Captain Al was seen in two features on Sun Met day. The 4yo Kasimir’s terrific win marked Captain Al’s third success in the Gr1 Cape Flying Championship and Vaughan Marshall’s smashing 3yo One World is Captain Al’s third winner of the CTS Mile.

CAPTAIN AL won 10 of 17 outings, with his crowning victory coming with a length win over subsequent Gr1 SA Classic winner Glamour Boy in the 2000 Cape Guineas - a race won last season by his now Klawervlei based son William Longsword.

Captain Al made an instant impression at stud – with his first crop including

12 stakes horses. He went on to garner a Champion Sires title (2014) and eight consecutive 2yo sires titles and is one of the most prolific sires of 2yo stakes winners ever to stand here. The sire of 6 Equus Champions, he has produced 21 Gr1 winners and 55 Gr1 performers. He produced the top lot on last week’s Cape Premier Yearling Sale.

Sun Met Day - Merit Rating Final Analysis

How The Handicappers Saw It The Sun Met Following careful analysis by Handicappers Lennon Maharaj, Matthew Lips and Vee Moodley, RAINBOW BRIDGE has seen an increase in his merit rating from 119 to 124 following his triumph in the Grade 1 Sun Met at Kenilworth on Saturday 26 January.

It was unanimously agreed amongst the handicapping panel that the correct line horse to use as a means of rating the Sun Met was 4th placed UNDERCOVER AGENT. While he was trying the distance of 2 000m for the first time, it was noted that UNDERCOVER AGENT and 5th placed LEGAL EAGLE finished virtually alongside each other for the third time in succession, having done so too in the Green Point Stakes and later in the L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate. This remarkable consistency shown by both horses at the highest level led to the strong conclusion that UNDERCOVER AGENT would not have run below his best in the Sun Met and that he is therefore a logical choice of line horse.

Thus, RAINBOW BRIDGE is now rated 124, while runner-up DO IT AGAIN (who was second last at the 400m mark) remains a 125 despite this defeat, based on his impressive Queen’s Plate win. HEAD HONCHO, who made a brave attempt to win the Met with pillar-to-post tactics, is now rated 122, up from his pre-Met rating of 114. He has clearly more than confirmed the promise he showed when a runaway winner of the Gr 2 Premier Trophy in December. In rating HEAD HONCHO 122, the handicappers took into account that he had over-raced for much of the 2 000m distance and that he had hung out visibly on the bend, so it is believed to have been a run full of merit and worthy of a 122 rating, LEGAL EAGLE’s rating has been dropped from 121 to 120, which is his season’s best mark, achieved when winning the Green Point Stakes. In other changes, TAP O’NOTH’s rating drops from 112 to 110, 2018 Sun Met winner OH SUSANNA’s rating has been trimmed from 121 to 119, and HAT PUNTANO drops to 106 from 109.

Betting World Cape Flying Championship KASIMIR’s rating was upped from 111 to 117 after he comfortably landed the day’s first Grade 1 event, the Cape Flying Championship over 1000m. Here, 5th placed TRIP TO HEAVEN was used as the line horse. TRIP TO HEAVEN has consistently shown a similar level of form in major sprint races all around South Africa for a number of years, and it is reasonable to believe that he once again ran his usual race here.

KASIMIR has been clearly progressive in Cape Town this season and was able to win despite meeting several horses on less favourable weight terms than in several recent encounters. This was certainly a career-best effort, and a six pound raise in his rating reflects that. Runner-up BOLD RESPECT, who was comfortably beaten

by KASIMIR again despite meeting that rival on 6.5 kgs better terms for a 2.75 lengths beating in the Gr 2 Merchants at Kenilworth last November, has been dropped from 118 to 116 to have him rated below KASIMIR.

Third placed SEARCH PARTY goes up from 106 to 112, while 4th finisher PACIFIC TRADER also goes to 112 from a pre-race mark of 110. In other changes, ATTENBOROUGH was dropped from 112 to 110, 2018 Cape Flying Championship winner SERGEANT HARDY drops from 115 to 112 on the back of numerous belowpar efforts, DUTCH PHILP was trimmed from 107 to 106, and ROCKY VALLEY goes to 99 from 101.

GBets Cape Derby ATYAAB saw his rating climb from 92 to 109 after he won the GBets Cape Derby. Here, the Handicappers were of the opinion that 3rd placed HERODOTUS would not have run worse than when he finished 4th in the Gr 2 Concord Cup won

by ONE WORLD last November and used that as a key to rate the Derby. In rating the Derby this way, 5th placed HELEN’S IDEAL runs to the same level of 98 that she achieved when she finished 7th in the Cape Fillies Guineas behind FRONT AND CENTRE in December. There is thus a very neat correlation between the form behind top colt ONE WORLD and top filly FRONT AND CENTRE, and ATYAAB is clearly a progressive colt whose rating is befitting of a Grade 1 winner.

Derby runner-up CHARLES was raised from a rating of 94 to 108, while line horse HERODOTUS now has a rating of 105, which is reflective of his ability and is not subject to the Handicapping guidelines which prevented his rating from being increased to what he actually achieved in the Concord Cup. Derby 4th BUNKER HUNT has had his rating upped from 93 to 104. The only horse whose rating dropped as a result of the Derby is PERPETUAL FLAME, who goes from 84 to 80.

Bidvest Majorca Stakes CLOUDS UNFOLD was raised from a rating of 109 to 115 after she reversed Cape Fillies Guineas form with hitherto unbeaten FRONT AND CENTRE by winning the Bidvest Majorca Stakes. Here, the Handicappers were of the unanimous opinion that 4th placed FRESNAYE should be used as the line horse to assess the race, having also finished 4th in the Grade 1 Paddock Stakes at her previous start three weeks earlier. In that race FRESNAYE was also beaten by LADY IN BLACK, who beat the line horse again in the Majorca Stakes by finishing 2nd. LADY IN BLACK’s rating remains unchanged on 117.

3rd placed FRONT AND CENTRE has had her rating upped from 110 to 112 . In other changes, last year’s Majorca Stakes winner SNOWDANCE was dropped from 114 to 112, and FIORELLA drops from 106 to 104.

CTS 1200 and CTS 1600 In conclusion, it is noted that the Handicappers’ assessment was vindicated in both of the day’s other R5 million races when the top rated horse won each of the CTS sales events, CIRILLO (rated 111) in the 1200m race and ONE WORLD (rated 117) in the 1600m event, where he and runner-up TWIST OF FATE (rated 115) confirmed their ratings perfectly. These horses thus confirmed the form they had shown throughout the Cape summer racing season.

Blunder Undermines Hong Kong Met Participation

T

The Hong Kong Jockey Club will refund punters who placed bets on four horses during Saturday’s South African simulcast after its contract partner failed to provide information about jockey substitutes before the start of the races.

he South China Morning Post reports that the issue was created when jockey Donovan Dillon became indisposed after the opening race of the simulcast and needed to be replaced for the remainder of The Met meeting at Kenilworth.

However, in four of those races, the Jockey Club said Phumelela Gaming and Leisure Limited “failed its contractual obligation to inform it of the jockey substitutions”.

The four horses concerned are: S1-2: “11 Sherwood Forest” replacement jockey Sean Veale S1-4: “20 Helen’s Ideal” replacement jockey S’manga Khumalo S1-5: “5 Rose In Bloom” replacement jockey Keagan De Melo S1-7: “7 Benjan” replacement jockey Anthony Andrews “[The Jockey Club] only received notifications of the concerned jockey substitutions from Phumelela after the completion of those races and after the payout process,” the Jockey Club said.

“Subsequently, it took immediate actions to update the jockey information across all channels. The horses concerned did not finish

in the top four of those races.

“We take this incident seriously and have demanded an explanation from Phumelela.

“According to the Horse Race Betting Rules, all confirmed results and dividends remain unchanged. “However, after considering the interests of customers, we have decided to make a discretionary refund.”

Punters who invested on any of those horses in single and all-up pools for win, place, quinella, quinella place, trio, tierce, first four and quartet, double trio or treble are eligible to get their money back.

For those who placed the bets using their account, they will be refunded automatically.

Refunds on cash bets can be done manually from midday on Monday in off-course betting branches Lost tickets can also be claimed in those shops within seven days.

“Accurate and timely delivery of wagering related information is a core value of the club’s simulcast and betting protocol,” the Jockey Club said.

“The club will always act responsibly to ensure that these values are not violated and the customer’s interests are served and protected.” www.scmp.com

Davis Returns To South Africa As part of the ‘re-engineering’ of the business it was announced on Monday that Phumelela Gaming has appointed Patrick Davis as Racing Executive with effect from April 2019.

DAVIS previously held this post until mid-2015 when he took up a position with Wetherbys in the UK where he has been responsible for delivering Racing Administration for 60 race courses.

Davis says that he is “delighted to be coming home. It has been a great experience working in the UK, a racing jurisdiction with such a strong racing culture. I am really looking forward to applying the lessons learned to Phumelela and maintaining South African Racing as a globally admired and respected racing jurisdiction.”

In making the announcement, John Stuart, CEO of Phumelela said that the total portfolio Basel currently covers is too extensive for one individual.

“To keep South African Racing at its globally recognised standard demands a dedicated resource and that is what Patrick Davis will provide”. Among

other responsibilities Davis will be tasked with forging much closer relationships with stakeholders right across the racing value chain plus a specific brief to drive transformation.

Clyde Basel, who will continue to manage the Racing Operations portfolio until Davis takes up his position in April, will remain with Phumelela and focus on growing the hospitality and eventing side of the business and driving ‘on-course attendance’.

Stuart also said “it was vital Phumelela built on the recent highly successful GBets Summer Cup to make that an even bigger event and to create similar hype and excitement at other events across the Racing year and across the country. In this regard Basel’s focus and experience will be invaluable”.

Met - Bring Back The Ordinary People The Met has lost quite a lot of its fun and energy since it changed to the SunMet, but truth be told it has been on a downward spiral for a good few years.

MICHAEL JACOBS of Southfield writes in the Sporting Post Mailbag that, in his opinion, the event has become over commercialised and exclusive, and the huge crowds of yesteryear are staying away.

I have attended the Met for decades and remember the glorious days of bringing your own umbrella, blanket and picnic snacks and sitting on the lawns in front of the grandstand. Thousands of people attended and the course was packed.

Saturday’s was probably the worst Met I’ve attended in terms of small crowd, lack of atmosphere and a long, boring day.

There were very few food outlets, the bars had limited drinks on offer at exorbitant prices, and there was a soulless air about the racecourse.

The halcyon days when J & B sponsored the event are sadly over forever!

The highlight of the day was undoubtedly the arrival of Usain Bolt and the gutsy win of Rainbow Bridge in the main race.

Other than that the day was quite forgettable. The Met used to be the “people’s race”, but it has quite clearly become “the rich and the celebrities race”. Both the Queen’s Plate and now the SunMet have become elitist, exclusionary and exclusive, and people are staying away.

The organisers should have a rethink and

return the Met to its former glory and the fun element lacking for ordinary people who used to attend the event in their thousands.

Let the racegoers bring their umbrellas and picnic snacks and let them have fun!

The marquees and hospitality enclosures can exist quite comfortably alongside the general public enjoying themselves on the lawns!

The event is going to continue to decline in popularity if the ordinary people are sidelined at the Met. Michael Jacobs, via email Ed – Readers may want to visit our website at www.sportingpost.co.za and read the thread of support for the basic ideas suggested by Mr Jacobs in his letter.

Art At The Met

J

Florian Junge's sculptures are fast gaining popularity with those who appreciate a unique exclusivity and his works could be viewed at the Sun Met for the first time on Saturday.

unge's mission is to create an emotional impact on people with his world-class welded steel sculpture work. He does so with amazing ease by transforming reclaimed scrap steel into sculptural masterpieces that radiate life and action.

This German born, self - taught sculptural genius takes pride in the fact that his sculptures are all unique, once-off pieces that have been individually fashioned with expertly selected components.

These sculptures can be seen in some of the our top fine-art galleries, having found homes locally and internationally in the USA, Germany, Russia, United Kingdom among others.

Although not all his artworks are of an equine nature, his love for horses and his ability to duplicate their actions and gestures, caught the attention of the Sun Met organizers, resulting in a stunning exhibit at the races this year.

Junge's personality has landed him a number of commissioned works which he particularly enjoys because of the co-creative nature thereof.

"Good art is a higher form of communication that must touch something deep within," he told the Sporting Post between races on Saturday.

Junge was born in Hamburg, Germany and moved to Mozambique with his family as a young boy. They moved to South Africa at the start of his schooling career and he matriculated at Wartburg High. Florian has lived a colourful and mostly well travelled existence ever since.

He acquired his inspiration from his father whom he describes as being a true and natural artist at heart. Like father like son, Florian sees art in almost anything. He transforms

Florian Junge everyday articles into works of fine art by using predominantly reclaimed items: always expressing an array of emotions which he manages to successfully communicate to the onlooker.

More of his works can be viewed and are available for purchase on the website www.florianjunge.com

The R7-million SA Triple Crown for 3-year-olds is the richest series of races in Africa.

he alternate first leg, the R1-million Cape Guineas run at Kenilworth on Saturday 15 December 2018, was won by Mike de Kock’s Soqrat.

The Gauteng legs commence at Turffontein on Saturday with the running of the R1-million Gr2 Gauteng Guineas The R2-million Gr1 SA Classic to be run at Turffontein over 1800mon Saturday 2 March is the second leg.

The third and final leg will be the R2-million Gr1 SA Derby to be run over 2450m at Turffontein on Saturday 30 March.

A bonus of R2 million will be paid to owner/s of the horse that wins all three legs of the Triple Crown The fillies are catered for with the R3.75million / R4-million Wilgerbosdrift SA Triple Tiara,

the richest series of races for fillies in Africa.

The alternate first leg was the R1-million WSB Gr1 Cape Fillies Guineas run at Kenilworth on Saturday 15 December 2018 and won by the Dynasty daughter, Front And Centre.

The Gauteng legs for the fairer sex also commence at Turffontein this Saturday with the R750 000 Wilgerbosdrift Gr2 Gauteng Fillies Guineas.

The second leg is the R1.25-million Wilgerbosdrift Gr1 SA Fillies Classic run over 1800m at Turffontein on Saturday 2 March .

The rich series culminates with the R750 000 Wilgerbosdrift Gr2 SA Oaks run over 2450m at Turffontein on Saturday 30 March.

A bonus of R1 million will be paid to owner/s of the filly that wins all three legs of the Triple Tiara.

Testing 1,2,3

We have suggested previously that the Triple Crown is three steps to turf immortality. But should we not be spreading the test nationally?

The SA Triple Crown, with the SA Triple Tiara, gets under way on Saturday 2 February - a month earlier than last year.

Winning three tough races from a mile to 2450m in eight weeks takes some doing.

The great Horse Chestnut won the inaugural Triple Crown in 1999, Sorrento stallion Louis The King did it in 2014 and Abashiri was the star of the show in 2016.

The Mike de Kock trained Galileo flyer Igugu was the first filly to win the Triple Tiara.

That was in 2011 and Ormond Ferraris-trained Cherry On The Top emulated that feat in 2013. The latter’s daughter Blossom runs in the Gauteng Fillies Guineas on Saturday!

So is it really the ‘ultimate test of brilliance’, as often tagged?

Logistical factors, such as travelling and the altitude, often prevent the emerging stars from the Cape from taking their chances.

Diego De Gouveia

T

The opportunity to ride in the Derby in the world famous blue and white silks of Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid al Maktoum for multiple champion trainer Mike de Kock, who saddled only the one runner on Sun Met day, was regarded as an honour and a privilege more than a scary pressure situation for 22 year old Diego ‘Digz’ De Gouveia – who only qualified as a jockey three weeks earlier.

here was just no thought of big match temperament fail or the fear of messing up while doing duty for SA’s greatest modern day trainer on behalf of one of the world’s leading owners in front of the Cape’s largest crowd of the year - on the region’s flagship raceday, to boot!

And it all ended well – taking the former workrider a shade over 124 secs to clinch a career first Gr1 success with an ice cool professional performance on the largely unfancied Atyaab in the R1 million Gr1 Cape Derby.

“I had only the two rides on Met day.

In fact I have only ever had one ride at the track! And to be quite honest I thought that if I was to ride a winner on the big day it would be on Walter Smoothie in the Gr2 Stayers race. But Atyaab was fit and well. I have won on him and I know that he is a genuine stayer. I felt if I could get within two lengths of the winner, we’d have done well. Things went our way and he really pulled his weight and showed his class,” said the young jockey.

We asked him why the De Kock yard’s first choice rider Randall Simons hadn’t taken the ride.

“When a horse clicks with a jockey and runs for him, then it’s a major advantage. And I have ridden Atyaab four times now for two wins and I know he does his best for me. So we have forged a relationship and I appreciate that Mr De Kock gave me the vote of confidence in the Gr1. I wasn’t exactly the most experienced big race rider he could have engaged,” he smiled broadly as he reflected back on how the race had panned out well.

All I was worried about was getting to the winner’s enclosure and weighing in – the logistics, as it were!”

He says it only all dawned on him about 4 hours later.

“It sunk in later and then I thought how fortunate I am. I mean to get the opportunity to ride in a Gr1 for a top stable and a top owner. I ride work at Mr De Kock’s yard and they have given me serious chances. But this can be “The plan was to get Atyaab out lifechanging and it means so much to and up near the front of the pack. me in terms of building confidence.”

Marcus Milestone While it may have gone largely unnoticed on the big day, RidgemontHighlands jockey Anton Marcus’ terrific Met win on Rainbow Bridge was the champion rider’s 100th Gr1 victory on African soil. It was his third Met winner – his first was in 1993 on Empress Club.

1200

FOR CRUZ

Last month’s Gr1 Longines Hong Kong Vase Exultant won the G3 Centenary Vase Handicap to give trainer Tony Cruz a 1200th Hong Kong win at Sha Tin on Sunday.

"It's always good to get a big number like this," said Cruz.

"Exultant will go for the Hong Kong Gold Cup next month and he's entered for Dubai whether or not he goes there is up to the owner but to win like this at a distance short of his best only gives me more confidence in the horse.”

Gimme Four Varsfontein’s Gimmethegreenlight, South Africa’s Leading First Crop Sire of 2015/16, produced four minor race winners over the past weekend, with his promising 2yo son Emerald Band also catching the eye when a close up second in Saturday’s Listed Tattersalls Summer Juvenile Stakes.

The Lammerskraal Stud bred gelding is one of three juvenile winners, from just four 2yo runners, for Gimmethegreenlight this season thus far. Gimmethegreenlight will be represented by National Park, Barahin, Green Haze and Stream Ahead in Saturday’s Gr2 Gauteng Guineas at Turffontein.

Blue Blood

A 6yo multiple Gr1 winning champion daughter of Medaglia d'Oro, Songbird delivered an Arrogate filly at Wayne and Cathy Sweezey's Timber Town Farm near Lexington shortly after midnight on Monday. The new Songbird filly is part of the first crop by Arrogate, North America's all-time leading earner at more than $17.4 million. Arrogate, by Unbridled's Song, stands for $75,000 at Juddmonte Farms in Lexington.

New Direction The 5yo Quality Road colt City Of Light withstood a late challenge from the 2018 Eclipse champion older dirt male and Gr1 Breeders' Cup Classic winner Accelerate (eventual third) and put distance between himself and the rest of the pack to win the $9 million Pegasus World Cup Invitational at Gulfstream Park on Saturday. The first and third placed gallopers arrived at their new home at Lane's End Farm on Sunday to take up stud duties alongside multiple Gr1 winner West Coast.

Big Bucks

There can’t be many jockeys who have won three R5 million races on one raceday anywhere and we have granted Anton Marcus the credit of a new SA record for his efforts on Saturday. He won R7,85 million in stakes for his wins in the two CTS races aboard Cirillo and One World – and then, of course, on Rainbow Bridge in the Met.

Focus

The horse has sadly taken a complete back seat both on the day and in the mainstream media reporting of the Met. The focus is on the party, the beautiful people, what they wore and who designed it - and the champagne. It’s high time for real racing people to somehow take back the big days.

Horsemen?

Sir Anthony McCoy and Nicky Henderson led a storm of protest over the weekend sparked by the decision of stewards at Uttoxeter to fine trainer Henry Oliver £140 for waving his arms at chaser Burrenbridge Hotel before a race to encourage it to start. The 20-time champion jockey tweeted his disgust at the fine for misconduct, labelling it "embarrassing rubbish". A statement by the BHA stoked the controversy by affirming that "we do not force horses to race and . . . they do so of their own free will" - a stance that five-time champion trainer Henderson said left him "in despair".

A Done Deal

Arrowfield Stud's six-time Gr1 winner Dundeel (High Chaparral-Stareel, by Zabeel) sired his first Gr1 winner when his Australian-bred colt Atyaab (DundeelSylvaner, by Danasinga) won the Gr1 Cape Derby on Sun Met Day. Atyaab is out of the three-time Gr2-winning Danasinga mare Sylvaner, already the dam of five winners from five runners, highlighted by the Listed Gold Cup winner Vesper (Zabeel). His win capped a stellar weekend for Champion Miler Dundeel ahead of this year’s NZB National Yearling Sale Series at Karaka, after Yourdeel placed in the Karaka Million 2YO and Cutadeel made it three on the trot last Friday en-route to the Gr1 NZ Derby.

THE MOLSTER

Last week punters who took Dave Mollett’s UK jackpot on Tellytrack hit a hat-trick of wins from 23rd to 25th January and made a nice profit. The buoyant Molly told Short Heads: "It was Dieter Wohlberg who came up with the idea, so he takes the credit. Having been brought up in UK racing, I like to think I know a little about the sport there. I'm in SA now but will return to the UK for 2-3 months in May."

The question will have most people jumping at a ‘not likely’ response with little hesitation based on the historical decline of the once great ‘Sport of Kings’, writes Leon Smuts.

O

perators of the corporate racing model have long proven that the sport and its customer base will be milked for everything it has at the expense of owners, trainers and punters. This is such an unnecessary and shortsighted approach with failure the only likely longer-term outcome and decline already very evident in most racing jurisdictions worldwide and locally.

Would it not be wonderful if they could be the hero’s rather than the villains for once and provide racing every chance of success by investing in meaningful programs to rebuild the customer base?

For far too long the emphasis has been placed on getting existing supporters to invest more either by upping their contribution, playing more regularly, event churn or supporting more product types and this is completely unsustainable without any actual customer growth. This strategy has clearly yielded very little to enthuse about and it won’t in future either. Admitting to this would be a very necessary first step to improving the situation.

Strong customer growth could be a reality if the following elements were to be included in product development.

- Provide affordable, high payout possibility fixed cost products - The format must provide a full afternoon’s fun and entertainment - Lack of skill should not be punished or prevent players from having a winning chance - Skill and improvements in skill should however offer an attractive and clear reward - Repeat play and regular and long-term participation should be promoted in the design - Every element should be player friendly and promote a growing interest in racing - Make it easier to win by less punitive rules and provide multiple winning opportunities Operators need to recognise the vital link between customer numbers and sustainable profitability and accept that this is a longterm strategy that needs early and constant investment, but which will only produce its best results at a later stage. It is understandably hard to invest in racing given the existing circumstances but not doing so will almost certainly result in further failure.

Strategies should never only be about the immediate bottom line as so many positives

will ultimately be derived from building new markets and expanding the customer base continually over time.

The operator and all other stakeholders in racing will greatly benefit from a large and growing customer base in the following manner.

- The obvious one is increased turnover and improved take out - Growing numbers will lead to larger race day attendance and better visibility for the sport - Many casual players will become bigger players as their level of skill improves - Advertising revenue will grow substantially when the customer base is bigger as large numbers produce relevance that is very hard to ignore - Sponsorships will similarly grow with improvements in relevance - Word of mouth benefits will be expanded and offers very effective marketing support - Increased media exposure as significant numbers will be attractive to promote which will accelerate further interest - Increased pools over time will generate further support and improve the funding of racing for increased stakes and new owner interest Immediate benefits for the operator of having truly punter friendly new products will include: - Access to attractive new markets - Aggressive marketing potential - Better motivated sales force - A convincing alternative to the open bet to regain lost support - Future subscription income potential - Hybrid sports betting opportunities - A measurable online growth strategy - Immediate and sustainable growth - Much needed positive public relations outcomes Will operators consider alternatives to the current product line up and will they be willing to spend on anything but immediate benefits? Although I am not entirely convinced of this, should they decide to do so will almost certainly be richly rewarded for their efforts and all of racing will benefit from the unexpected boom to follow.

Ngwane Rides For SA Newly qualified jockey Eric Ngwane will represent South African at the third renewal of the International Jockeys Challenge to be held at Ngong Racecourse in Kenya on Sunday.

Horseracing in the Republic of Kenya is 114 years old this year and the beautiful country in the African Great Lakes region of East Africa will again host visitors from across the globe. South African bred horses form a large component of the local racing population.

The challenge will again be sponsored by Britam Kenya Ltd and Zimbabwe will be aiming for their third straight win after lifting the first and second challenges.

The 2400m $6 million Longines Dubai Sheema Classic on turf has attracted Gr1 Japan Cup winning filly Almond Eye, the brightest rising star from the land of the rising sun, leading an honour roll of Japanese Gr1 winners, including Cheval Grand, Lys Gracieux and Rey de Oro. Hong Kong’s Exultant and Eagle Way, as well as Ireland’s Magical and U.S. Gr1 winners Sadler’s Joy and Channel Maker add significant depth.

Hong Kong’s Beauty Generation tops the nominations for the 1800m $6 million Gr1 Dubai Turf sponsored by DP World , which also has a potent Japanese presence, including 2017 winner and 2018 runnerup Vivlos, Gr1 Hong Kong Cup runnerup Deirdre, third in this last year, and Yasuda Kinen (G1) winner Mozu Ascot.

Defending champion Benbatl, Australian Gr1 winner Comin’ Through, veteran South African Gr1 gelding Marinaresco, Gr1 St James’s Palace Stakes winner Without Parole from England and Gr1 Shadwell Turf Mile winner Next Shares from America already make this an exciting event to anticipate.

Farewell George Rowles

G

A stalwart of the breeding industry in South Africa, the passing of George Rowles of Ivanhoe Stud last Wednesday evening has been received with sadness across the broader spectrum of the racing and breeding industry.

eorge Rowles had always been guided by his belief that the best course of action is that which will be to the ultimate benefit of the game as a whole.

He had been around the horses business for a good number of years and has seen developments on the racing scene which could only have been mere pipedreams to Turf administrators of yesteryear.

George had progressed through the ranks from a small breeder-ownertrainer to an influential breeder, that of master of a large and consistently successful stud, a successful owner, and a man who served the industry in his capacity as council member of the Thoroughbred Breeders Association of South Africa, committee member of the Natal Owners’ and Trainers’ Association and a steward of the Clairwood Turf Club.

A Natal Owners’ and Trainers’ Association committee member of 15 years standing, George Rowles was elected to the panel of stewards at Clairwood and was in on the ground floor of the major developments at the track. Aptly called the Garden Course, Clairwood Park was one of the showpieces of South African racing.

As Region Four representative on the TBA council, he was instrumental in the introduction of the Newmarket yearling sales, which are today’s KZN Yearling Sale.

Ivanhoe stud was long regarded as one of the leading nurseries in the country. At one point George Rowles occupied fifth spot on the national breeders’ log – no mean achievement when one considered the calibre of the competition.

He had always been an active sportsman, having represented Natal southern districts at both rugby and cricket in his younger days.

Elected to the Council of the Thoroughbred Breeders’ Association of South Africa in 1980, one of George Rowles’s main platforms on this committee had been equal treatment for all.

Racing is very much like life – one has to put into it to get anything out and this is perhaps true of George Rowles’s progress from his humble beginning in the Sport of Kings to where he could look back with pride on his achievements.

His father had been an ownertrainer and from a very tender age, George helped out in their Isipingo stables, mucking out, grooming and riding work for his father before going off to school, only to return after lessons in the afternoon for another round of stable duties.

Having become an experienced work rider, George was very much in demand at the many gymkhana meetings of earlier years. In fact, he was one of the leading amateur riders, often riding more than half the card, his best tally – on more than one occasion – riding six out of none winners in an afternoon.

After completing his schooling, he didn’t immediately become involved with horses, electing instead to become a dairy farmer in the Transvaal. But racing was in his blood and it wasn’t long before he acquired two mares and that was the start of what is today his breeding and racing enterprise.

One of his first acquisitions was the twice successful Colchis II mare

Sophie, who, when bred to the very good sprinter Black Cap, gave George his first winner as an owner-trainer when the filly Shanghai, ridden by Charlie Barends, opened her winning account as a juvenile at Newmarket in 1957. The filly went on to win a further four races the following season and the die was cast.

George, who had been a colour holder for more than 30 years, decided to move back to Natal, and in 1959 bought a tract of land at Waterfall, close to Hillcrest, where he had lived ever since. He soon set about establishing a training track on the property, a facility which boasts a 1100m sand and grass track still in use today. A unique feature of the track is that the rails are irrigation pipes making for easy watering of the surfaces.

When starting stalls were introduced to South African racing, George followed suit with his own pens at Waterfall. It is an immaculate yard with one of the first equine swimming pools in the country.

The runners at the El Dorado yard at Waterfall are products of his Ivanhoe Stud at Nottingham Road. The stud started with a handful of mares but was steadily increased to its peak of 75 Thoroughbred matrons. While imported stock has made its way into South Africa for many ears, Ivanhoe was perhaps the first stud to bring in imported mares in any quantity.

That first venture into the overseas market saw 12 thoroughbred mares imported. The following year ten imported mares were purchased with eight a year later. In their prime, well over half the Ivanhoe broodmare band was imports.

The stud struck gold with the acquisition of the imported English horse Caerdeon, a brother to One Thousand Guineas winner Caergwrle,

by Epsom Derby and Two Thousand Guineas winner Crepello out of Caerphilly, a daughter of sprinting Abernant with a Timeform rating of 129. aerdeon (GB), who stood his first season at Ivanhoe in 1973, has sired the winners of well over R2,5 million in stakes and has featured prominently on the general sires’ list since the 1978-79 season and had been the leading Natal-based stallion for a number of years.

Sabre, a Classic winner of 12 races, was also used as one of the resident sires.

He also stood another successful sire in Rocky Marriage, whose reach went beyond racing and a few years ago, was represented at the highest levels in the world and aimed at the Olympics by an Eventing horse named Heartbreak Hill with rider Paul Hart.

While a successful commercial breeder, George Rowles elected to campaign a number of his homebreds.

There have been a host of winners in the familiar red and grey colours, perhaps most notable of which was the brilliant thirteen-time winning filly Justine, who never realised her full potential as a broodmare due to her untimely death.

Another side to George Rowles, and completely unconnected with the racing game, is that of property developer. One might even call him the “mayor” of Linkhills, a scenic village complete with infrastructure of post office, shopping centres, garages and offices established on what is part

De Kock’s Rating Question George Rowles of the original piece of ground George bought in 1959 and includes the Watercrest Mall.

The KZN Breeders Club recognised George Rowles for his outstanding lifetime achievements and contribution to the Thoroughbred industry at the KZN Breeders Awards in 2014 with the Lifetime Achievement Award, presented to him by lifelong friends Robin Scott and Bill Lambert.

George Rowles also had the honour of winning the inaugural KZN Breeders Million Mile in its first running at Greyville (it was previously the KZN Breeders Mile Listed). He won it with Knock On Wood, and won the trophy donated by Robin and Des Scott.

The 2017 Durban July winner Marinaresco made his Dubai debut in last Thursday’s Gr2 Al Fahidi Fort over 1400m on turf at Meydan.

t’s a race the Mike de Kock stable has won half a dozen times in the last 15 years, but was not considered a winning opportunity this year and Marinaresco, in need of the outing, duly ran downfield.

De Kock is not happy about his charge’s rating: “The ratings of South African horses are misleading as the South African crop went up 6 lbs last year.

The NHA announced that it was a local adjustment only and not an international rating. However,

Memorial Service A memorial service for the late George Rowles is being held at Highbury Chapel, in Hillcrest, KZN at 15H00 on Thursday 31 January 2019.

Marinaresco has been rated six lbs up at 118 so the NHA’s statement does not reflect in the Dubai ratings.

2019 cape premier yearling Sale Prices

23 January - Cape Town International Convention Centre

Captain Tops The Charts In brisk bidding throughout the only session, the Cape Premier Yearling Sale held yesterday at the CTICC delivered to high expectations with a top price of R4 million achieved for a well-related Klawervlei Stud bred full sister to Gr1 winning sire, William Longsword.

Bred on the cross responsible for multiple Gr1 winner Captain America, the beautiful own sister to Gr1 Cape Guineas winner William Longsword and a half-sister to Gr1 South African Fillies Sprint winner Real Princess, hails from the family of Gr1 winning females Imperious Sue (who won the Met in 1998) and Imperious Star. She is from the final Cape Premier Yearling Sale crop to be offered of deceased champion sire Captain Al. Catalogued as lot 129, she was signed for by leading Newmarket-based bloodstock agent Anthony Stroud.

Anthony said of his buy: “She’s a lovely filly and I think she’ll be trained by Justin Snaith. She was bought for an old client of mine who’s down here on holiday and has a connection to South Africa, so he wanted to have a go.”

The progeny of Pagan Princess have long proved popular, with her son William Longsword making R2.2 million, Real Princess R2 700 000 , and Silver God R2 000 000.

Captain Al was also responsible for the top colt sold at Wednesday’s sale, with his son Chestnut Bay (Lot 49) being knocked down to Amanda Skiffington for R2 200 000. sire/horse dam

Consigned by Ridgemont Highlands, the striking colt is out of the winning Galileo mare Exotic –and his second dam is Irish Oaks runner up Ice Queen. This well bred colt, with a stallion’s pedigree to boot, is from the same family as Breeders’ Cup Mile and champion sire Last Tycoon as well as Moutonshoek’s Gr1 winning young stallion The United States.

Captain Al ended up as the Leading Sire by aggregate, with his seven yearlings to sell grossing R11.2 million.

Klawervlei Stud topped the Vendors List, with South Africa’s reigning champion breeders selling 48 yearlings for R30 875 000, while KZN breeders, Rathmor Stud topped the buyers list – purchasing 13 lots for a total of R6 725 000.

Rathmor’s purchases included a Captain Al filly (Lot 199) out of Gr3 Strelitzia Stakes winner Thekkady who fetched R800 000, and they also purchased lots by the likes of Coup De Grace, Duke Of Marmalade, Dynasty, Flower Alley, Futura, Gimmethegreenlight, and Trippi.

In total, 192 of the 217 yearlings offered were sold for R83 135 000, and the lots to sell averaged R432 994, with the median staying steady at R300 000. sire/horse dam

Protocols A Priority

“If South Africa can get the quarantine situation sorted this sale will take off - and I think it’s very important that happens”.

So wrote James Thomas on the www.racing post.com after last Wednesday’s successful Cape Premier Yearling Sale.

Wéhann Smith, CEO of CTS, said after the sale that he was most encouraged by a fantastic turnout and a varied buyer’s bench.

He said: “The Convention Centre was packed, there was a good atmosphere and we had plenty of buyers from all over the country and overseas.”

While the turnover was significantly down on the 2018 figure, when 30 additional lots went through the ring, Smith said: “Vendors across the board were happy with their returns. We are very pleased with continued and growing overseas interest. We had 18 yearlings that fetched R1-million or more.

“If there is to be a negative, it is that our average price per yearling was down from last year’s R699,000 to R436,000, but we had a real sale here, no smoke and mirrors. The figures were a good reflection of a good, solid auction. If some of the R1,5-million or R2-million yearlings went for just a little more, the average price would have been markedly higher.

“Overall, however, we are happy with what was achieved and we thank our vendors and buyers for their valued support.”

Outstanding stallion Kingmambo, whose half-brother Judpot stands at Varsfontein, died in 2016 but he continues to make his mark on the breed through a number of stallion sons and broodmare daughters.

he regally bred French Guineas winning son of Mr Prospector and Miesque was to the fore at Kenilworth on Saturday with his son Ideal World who is from one of the most powerful families of recent years - responsible for Gr1 Sun Met winner Rainbow Bridge.

The latter is a second Met winner, in four years, for Ideal World, whose daughter Smart Call won the same race back in 2016.

The versatile Ideal World, whose son Kimberley Star won the Fairview Merchants over 1200m the Friday before the 2000m Met, made a superb start to his stud career with his first crop yielding 30 winners from 43 runners and nine stakes horses headed by Smart Call and Gr3 Track And Ball Oaks winner Zante.

Subsequent crops have produced the likes of Equus Champion Hermoso Mundo, and the graded stakes winners Cape Speed (Track And Ball Derby), Zen Arcade (Graham Beck Stakes) and Inverroche (Strelitzia Stakes), dual 2yo stakes winner Coral Bay, Persian Rug (so unlucky not to win the Gr1 Thekwini Stakes at two), and Grand Heritage hero and Listed Wolf Power 1600 victor Irish Pride. Another by Ideal World, Helen’s Ideal, ran fifth in Saturday’s Gr1 GBets Cape Derby.

It is also hard not to think that Ideal World, all things considered, will not make up into a high class broodmare sire-just as his own sire has. His close relative Dansili is another top class broodmare sire.

Kingmambo has also featured in the pedigrees of a number of high class South African gallopers over the years, with his stallion sons responsible for such standout performers as Rudra (Summer Cup), Laverna (Equus Champion), the above mentioned pair of Smart Call and Rainbow Bridge, Same Jurisdiction (Garden Province Stakes, Thekwini Stakes), the popular Gr1 SA Classic winner Pierre Jourdan, and SA Fillies Nursery winner Virgo’s Babe.

His late son Parade Leader is also enjoying success as a broodmare sire and is already damsire of such high

class performers as Alexis (Gr2 KZN Fillies Guineas) and Secret Potion (Gr2 SA Oaks).

Kingmambo looks to continue to make his mark on the turf through such prospects as Lemon Drop Kid, paternal grandson Lord Kanaloa and maternal grandsons Ruler Of The World and Camelot, while Kingmambo son Dubai Destination has also become a top class broodmare sire and is damsire of multiple Gr1 winners and young Darley sires Postponed and Golden Horn among others.

Another maternal grandson of Kingmambo, Duke Of Marmalade, has made an excellent start with his first South African crop, and that five time Gr1 winner is bound to have further impact on the local scene in seasons to come.

Yet another son, Archipenko, is the sire of the full-brothers Time Warp and Glorious Forever –who have won the last two runnings of the Gr1 Hong Kong Cup.

Lord Kanaloa Outstanding sprinter Lord Kanaloa - a son of Kingmambo’s champion sire son King Kamehameha - is one of the most exciting sire prospects currently at stud in Japan. From the same family as Alleged, Malibu Moon and Secretariat, the dual Hong Kong Sprint winner was Japan’s Leading First Crop Sire in 2017 and his nine black type winners to date include Japan Cup winning superstar Almond Eye and Japanese Gr1 winners Stelvio and Saturnalia.

A truly exceptional racehorse, and Japan’s Horse Of The Year in 2013, Lord Kanaloa looks on track for a very exciting career at stud.

Rainbow Bridge Ruler Of The World, whose dam is closely related to Lemon Drop Kid, never raced at two which makes the promise shown by his early runners all the more encouraging.

Camelot Four time Gr1 winner Camelot (Montjeu), whose dam is the Kingmambo sired Gr3 Dahlia Stakes winner Tarfah, got off to a flying start with his first Northern Hemisphere crop having yielded 11 black type winners, including the Gr1 winners Athena (Belmont Oaks) and Latrobe (Irish Derby).

Ascot bred

Lemon Drop Kid A three-parts brother to South African stallion Mambo In Seattle, and from the family of A P Indy and Ruler Of The World, US champion and Belmont Stakes winner Lemon Drop Kid holds strong claims to being his sire’s best sire son.

Winter & The Stars

Ruler Of The World A half-brother to Duke Of Marmalade, and winner of the 2013 Gr1 Investec Derby, Ruler Of The World - one of 3 sons of Galileo to have won the Epsom Derby - made a smart start with his first 2yos in 2018. The chestnut, out of Kingmambo mare Love Me True, had only a handful runners but that tally included Gr1 bet365 Fillies’ Mile winner Iridessa who is a likely classic contender for 2019.

The former Epsom Derby winner also enjoyed success with his 2yos last year including Gr1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud victress Wonderment.

Interestingly, Camelot’s dam is bred on the same Kingmambo/ Danehill cross as Ideal World.

B

Drakenstein Stud’s multiple Equus Champion What A Winter, South Africa’s Leading First Crop Sire of 2016-2017, was represented by his first G1 winner when his 3yo daughter Clouds Unfold scored a terrific win in the Gr1 Majorca Stakes at Kenilworth last Saturday.

red and owned by Drakenstein Stud, the flashy chestnut stormed home from off the pace to register a one and a half length win in the 1600m contest.

Clouds Unfold is trained by Candice Bass-Robinson – whose father Mike trained What A Winter.

South Africa’s latest star filly has

now won four graded stakes, with Clouds Unfold’s previous graded successes including the Gr2 Western Cape Fillies Championship, Gr2 Cartier Sceptre Stakes and Gr3 Cape Of Good Hope Nursery.

The filly was one of three winners on the weekend, and one of two on Saturday, for What A Winter, whose Lammerskraal Stud bred son Russet

Gr1 Cape Flying Championship Met Day, Kenilworth 26 January

3rd 6 b g Captain Al - Princess Magdalena (Pennekamp)

4th 4 b g Sail From Seattle - Agbalat (Cape Cross)

The five time Gr1 winner is responsible for over 180 stakes horses and nearly 100 black type winners, with Lemon Drop Kid’s progeny including Lemons Forever, Richard’s Kid, Beach Patrol, Romantic Vision, Citronnade, Somali Lemonade, Christmas Kid and Santa Teresita.

Lemon Drop Kid has also become an excellent broodmare sire and is already damsire of the Gr1 winners Bar Of Gold, Forever Unbridled, Unbridled Forever, Without Parole, Tamarkuz, Finest City, Yellow Agate, and Elusive Kate.

Air dead-heated for victory in Kenilworth’s final race on the day – an MR 87 handicap over 1000m. Also trained by Candice Bass-Robinson, the lightly raced 3yo Russet Air has now won or placed in four of only five outings and was second, at his previous start, in the Need For Speed Sprint behind talented Sophomore Sprint winner Pleasedtomeetyou.

What A Winter’s Listed East Cape Nursery winning son Fort Winter got up to score over 1000m for trainer Yvette Bremner and jockey Ryan Munger on Friday.

What A Winter, whose first crop included graded stakes winners Magical Wonderland and Dutch Philip, also enjoyed success at last week’s Cape Premier Yearling Sale where his yearlings fetched up to R700 000.

The Big T

with Steve Furnish

A review of the week's best SPEEDRATINGS

Powerful Frontrunner Promising Local Debuts

Vaal 22 January A half of the eight races on the classic track on Tuesday were staged over 1600m and by far the fastest of these was the MR66 Handicap won by ROCKSTAR CHILD. Always handy, the Mambo In Seattle gelding ran on strongly at the business end of the race and just got the better of another handily placed runner in FESTIVE LINNGARI. The only other distance to stage more than one race was 1200m where the faster of the two handicaps was the MR84 affair in which the uneasy favourite CARBON ATOM registered his third career victory.

Content to race fifth of the eight for most of the journey, Sean Tarry’s Charge was ridden to lead shortly after passing the 200m marker and with the rest some three lengths adrift, he beat the staying on veteran GREASEPAINT (set the pace) by a half.

A MR95 Handicap over 1600m topped the bill and here we saw another smart front running performance from the gutsy PILOU. Looking to complete a four timer here, the top weighted son of Western Winter made all. He was always in command and won without any anxious moments by a length.

TITBITS The Alec Laird trained newcomer BIZE came from the rear when winning the girls’ division of the maiden plate over 1600m going away.

Fairview 23 January Not surprisingly the faster of the two 1200m races that opened up proceedings was the novice plate in which DELIA’S DELIGHT caused an upset. Racing over a trip that looked short of her best in this her first outing since relocating to the Eastern Cape, the 4yo daughter of Dynasty was soon positioned close to the speed. She ran on strongly in the short home straight and with the rest well beaten she held off a determined challenge from the even money favourite LIGHT ON HER TOES. The MR78 Handicap was the fastest of the three 1600m races and here the 5yo BORDER CONTROL registered his fifth career victory. Nicely positioned in second at the top of the straight, Grant Paddock’s charge was ridden to lead as they approached the 200m pole and comfortably accounted for the always handy DESERT CHIEF by two and a quarter.

The only favourite to oblige on the eight race program was JALEIKA in the maiden plate for the girls over 1900m. Another to race handy, Alan Greeff’s charge took up the running early in the home straight and won well from the always handy ROCK STARDOM by a length and a quarter.

TITBITS Making her first appearance since relocating from Cape Town, BARGEME won the maiden plate for the girls over 1200m with plenty in hand.

At His Peak Vaal 24 January Just half a second separated the winners of the three 1000m races, the fastest of which being the boy’s division of the maiden plate in which the fancied EASTERN HEALER opened his account. A promising fifth in his only previous racecourse appearance, the son of Warm White Night raced in midfield during the early part of the race. He ran on strongly over the final 400m and in what proved to be a real thriller he got up late to deny the heavily supported CHIEF OF STATE. A pinnacle stakes over 1100m topped the bill and as is often the case in these types of events victory went to the best weighted runner, in this case PINNACLE PEAK. Freely available at 5/1 on the off, Dorrie Sham’s charge made most of the running. He was headed by the 11/10 favourite BILLY SILVER (reported lame near fore) 300m out, but rallied gamely to regain the lead 200m later, and won going away.

Fairview 25 January The non-black type Fairview Merchants topped the bill on Friday’s turf card and here victory went to the easy to back KIMBERLEY STAR. Freely available at 8/1 on the off, Alan Greeff ’s charge raced fifth of the nine for most of the journey. He was ridden to lead shortly after passing the 200m marker and kept on strongly late to fend off a determined challenge from one of the joint favourites EXELERO. There were three 1200m races in total and in a time 13/100th of a second faster than that of the Merchants, the MR69 Handicap was won

by DAME COMMANDER. Racing for the first time since relocating from KZN, the 4yo daughter of Western Winter raced up with the pace throughout. She ran on strongly at the business end of the race and won well by a

length and a quarter from the always handy BUSHY PARK. The MR79 Handicap was the faster of the two 1400m events on the card and here the Gimmethegreenlight gelding GREEN LANTERN won very cosily. Confidently ridden by Greg Cheyne, Green Lantern raced detached at the back of the six for most of the journey. He quickened well when given rein and after quickly working his way through the field, he won going away by a length and three quarters.

TITBITS Having only her second outing since relocating from KZN, ELEGANT EVA only had to be pushed out when opening her account in the maiden plate for the girls over 1400m.

Winning With Authority Greyville 25 January I Comparatively the fastest race on Friday evening’s poly track card was the MR88 Handicap over 1000m and here we saw a comfortable victory for the uneasy favourite CHANTYMAN. Soon up handy, the Oratorio gelding was ridden to lead 200m out by Warren Kennedy and went on to score with authority by a length and three quarters.

Three of the eight races were staged over 1400m and stopping the clock in the fastest of these was PLAY THE NIGHT in the lucky last. Always top of the boards in this MR64 Handicap, Sean Tarry’s ultra-consistent runner was soon prominent. He put his head in front going through the 200m and won well by two from the staying on pacemaker FLY BY SKYE. They also ran three races over 1600m and quickest home here was HAYLOR in the MR82 handicap.

Winning for the third time in his last four outings here, this improving son of Curved Ball also raced close to the speed. He took up the running as they approached the 200m marker and after quickly going clear he comfortably accounted for the running on SALTORO RIDGE by a length and a quarter.

TITBITS Positioned second to last turning for home, GREEN ICE ran on best of all over the final 400m of the MR60 apprentice handicap and won going away by a length and a half.

Horses worth following at their next few starts...

BANK ROBBER (P Peter, Gauteng)

The lucky last was a maiden plate over 1800m and here the locals were sent home happy when the favourite BANK ROBBER did the business.

Soon at the head of affairs despite stumbling at the start, Paul Peter’s charge raced clear throughout. He was always in command and despite losing a shoe in running, he won with authority by four.

TITBITS After racing over further for a year (9 starts), DESERT RHYTHM lined up in a MR91 Handicap over 1200m, and ran on stoutly from off the pace to get up close home.quarters.
