Field size related cut?

Not sure, I know there was a cut due

But 30k less than Jozi and KZN?

Treble, races 2 - Our Prized Jewel, 3 - Viva Rio and 4 - Apollo Ace, this will pay for the lunch and drinks, and that's not all, with the change, have a bet on your Sunmet fancy.

Here follows the trainer comments ahead of Tuesday’s race meeting at Kenilworth.

JANUARY 14, 2020
Race 1

Mike Robinson

No 5 Alloverthepuppies is a nice horse but will need the experience.

Piet Steyn

No 6 Katak will need the run.

No 8 Rain Keeps Falling will need the run.



Race 2

Paul Reeves

No 3 What A Jewel is in a tough field but is working well and has an Eachway chance.

Brett Crawford

No 5 Nippy Sweetie will need the run.

No 6 Our Prized Jewel is working well and has a Place chance.



Race 3

Candice Bass-Robinson

No 3 Snow Report: Prep run for the million dollars, should be in the money.



Race 4

Mike Stewart

No 1 Icon Princess is an underrated filly.

No 5 Al Bragga took more runs than was expected to break his maiden but we are hoping he realizes his potential and wins a few more. He is my preferred choice.

No 6 Al Wahed should be on top of them at the finish.

No 7 Icon King is being prepared for another race.

Candice Bass-Robinson

No 3 Apollo Ace always give an honest effort, and will have a winning chance again.

No 4 Dragon Power: Good winning chance with a kilo turn around with Apollo Ace, as such, our slight preference here.



Race 5

Paul Reeves

No 3 Pippielangkous is speedy and can place.

No 7 Nanna Anna might find this 1000m a bit short but will be doing her best work at the finish.



Race 6

Candice Bass-Robinson

No 4 Miss Honey has been dropping slowly in the weights but looks to have her work cut out in this field.



Race 7

Candice Bass-Robinson

No 3 Cruise Along can win a race like this, if she brings some of her previous form to the track.

No 6 Gimme Gimme Gimme: Good run from her last time from the tail of the field, draws well here and will be right there again.

No 9 Sweet Karma: Holding form well, each way chance. She looks the value at her price.

Paul Reeves

No 7 Chilly Winter tries further and I am hoping she can run a nice race.



Race 8

Candice Bass-Robinson

No 2 Mayfern: Good first run out the maidens, and should be included.

No 7 Rock Trip has a big winning chance.

Paul Reeves

No 8 Duntoche tries further. Is well drawn and has a place chance.

RACE ONE

NO.4 EMPIRE GLORY

5/1

Not much pace in the race 😒...No pace at all actually
Which will be perfect for Empire glory to Race handy...and Finish of strongly!

ALLOVERTHEPUPPIES
Best bred in the race...
20/1....
Trainer says will need experience...But this is a mediocre Field!
Won't take much to beat them!

Another cracking Malherbe commentary

“Katak has come off bridle and starting to lose touch”

Dumpy Schoeman gets pasted on a regular basis, but on current form he would win the popular vote in a run off vs Malherbe.

He seems to miss something crucial at least once a meeting - and let's pray that a 10 horse field doesn't split into 2 and half race down inside rail and other half in the middle of the track.

SILVER FOUNTAIN

Win

30/1

Improved by 10L from first to second start over C/D

Under a length off innogen and lady Wylie last time out after losing a length at the start

Snow report..with the weight turn around 🤔🤔

Fancy the filly though INVISIBLE
Really good effort last time out!

INVISIBLE (WIN)

Great Treble Bayern!!

Well done Bayern. Was going to follow you but the Trainer comments put me off.
