Jimmy The Rich writes that Got The Greenlight from the Joey Soma yard takes his place in the Gr1 H F Oppenheimer Horse Chestnut Stakes. He produced a cracking comeback run when finishing second in the Gr 2 Hawaii Stakes last time.
He challenged strongly all the way to the line that day, but found one too good in the form of MK’s Pride.
He has won twice, finished second once and third once from six starts on this course. The son of Gimmethegreenlight should strip fitter this afternoon and will take a power of beating.
After saddling two winners at the Vaal on Thursday, trainer Paul Peter sends out The Contractor in Race 3.
He ran a decent race when finishing third in the Non-Black Type Gold Rush Sprint last time. That was his first start with the blinkers fitted and the headgear remains on today.
He makes his stable debut and takes a drop-in class. If settled into his new surroundings, he should return to winning ways.
The false rail is zero on the back straight to 5m on the bend with a 5m spur at the 700m mark.
