Fans are in for treat with the running of the Gr1 Cape Guineas and the Gr2 Premier Trophy, which will see Hawwaam make his long-awaited debut in the Western Cape.
To add to the merriment, R500 000 will kick off the Pick 6 MEGAPOOL, which is estimated to reach R5 million.
Last weekend, the Kenilworth pool reached well in excess of the estimate to close at over R4 million.
The Cape Guineas has always been seen as the ‘premier’ Guineas in the land as it is the only Gr1 race over 1600m for three-year-olds.
It also acts as an alternative first leg of the SA Triple Crown along with the Gauteng Guineas, a Gr2 event, at Turffontein in February.
The appearance of Hawwaam in the Premier Trophy appears to have frightened off much of the opposition as only eight horses are carded to go to post for this R350 000 race.
Mike de Kock’s charge has been priced up at 1-3. He only has a 1kg advantage over Twist Of Fate, who is now trained by in-form Adam Marcus.
