Adam Marcus made an interesting move when he supplemented Gr1 Cartier Paddock Stakes third-placer Princess Calla at the final supplementary stage for the R1 million Gr1 Cape Town Met on Monday 11 January.
Met supplementary Princess Calla (Pic- Chase Liebenberg)
With the scratching of the Andre Nel-trained Capoiera, Princess Calla (14-1 with Hollywoodbets) was the only new card on the table as we head towards the Wednesday 20 January final declaration date.

Interesting move by the connections, shades of Oh Susanna perhaps? But is she as good as Oh Susanna was when that one won the SunMet?
Great for a place
