Matador Man is Sporting Post’s top-rated best handicapped Vodacom Durban July runner, and showed his wellbeing at the public July-gallops last week.
Against him is that he’s not certain to stay the 2200m distance of the big race. He’s drawn wide, but is a notoriously slow beginner, so the draw will not be of consequence.
Have you got your July Day racecard?
If the slow pace, predicted by many, materializes he might well outsprint them all – assuming that he’s not too far back. Worth a chance at 25/1.
