‘Dont leave either of them out’ – champion trainer on his first timers at Turffontein
‘Is showing decent work but only has one eye and it is quite difficult to predict how they will run with only one eye’
‘Will need the run – has had a wind op, came in late, has only been on the grass once – if she were to place I would be surprised – the stable mate is the horse to beat’
‘A nice horse but will probably need the experience – we have lost some work time due to the rainy weather recently’
Phumelela has scheduled an additional twilight race meeting on Tuesday 19 December
‘Precocious, speedy and I am expecting to win’ – Barend Botes. In the same race, Gokhan Terzi says his first-timer will be in top two
The Turffontein racemeeting scheduled for today has been postponed to Sunday 26 November
The Turffontein Standside track can still take more rain, according to track manager Thomas Rasasamola
‘I was not expecting this to be a International Jockeys race. This horse is difficult at the gates and will probably need this. My other two runners in the race are preferred’
‘Seems a smart sort, showing very good work at home. This horse is 6-8 months younger than the others and set to carry the same weight so it wont be easy but we are expecting a big run.’
Former SA Champion jockey Andrew Fortune’s six month quest to be relicenced to ride again reaches something of a watershed
