The World Sports Betting Gr1 Cape Town Met will be run at 17h10 on Saturday at Hollywoodbets Kenilworth.
The big poser this year is whether the 3 year-olds can walk away with the laurels. Why not be snappy and hear it straight from the ‘horse’s mouth’, courtesy of Michele Wing’s Racing News.
Make it Snappy: “If there ever is a time to run with that type of weight of 51,5 kgs on your back, it’s now”, says Brett Crawford.
Jet Dark: “This is the swansong everyone hopes for. Come Met day, you’ll see the best of him”, says Justin Snaith
Kommetdieding: “Can he do it again?”, asks Racing News. “He definitely can”, says Michelle Rix.
Cousin Casey: “I think he’s definitely the horse to beat and I think the biggest opposition will be the filly from Brett Crawford, Make It Snappy”, says Glen Kotzen.
Sparkling Water: “We’ve done a nice gallop with her recently and I’m quite happy and pleased where she is”, says S’Manga Khumalo.
Universal: “He’s kept his condition after that last race, he’s moving well, so from my side it’s been a very smooth preparation”, says Adam Marcus.
Al Muthana: “The horse is at his best right now. Not a bad draw for him as he comes from behind anyway”, says Ricky Maingard.
Rascallion: “He had a long lay-off of about a year, but has come back strong. Unfortunately he’s drawn 17 which is not in his favour”, says Vaughan Marshall.
Golden Ducat: “He didn’t have a good prep going into the King’s Plate. I really hope I’ve got him back again, the great horse that he is, for Saturday”, says Eric Sands.
Marina: “She’s got a good draw this year. We would very happy if we could get a place in the Met”, says Candice Bass-Robinson.
Do It Again: “He loves this. He bucks past my office every morning. Beautiful draw at 8”, says Justin Snaith.
Nexus: “Piere had already committed to Al Muthana, so let’s see how Muzi gets on”, says Justin Snaith.
Linebacker: “He’s better than he was last year, The last 2 weeks he has come on tremendously. He’s drawn 16, so also not in his favour”, says Vaughan Marshall.
Warrior: “As you saw with Al Muthana at 60-1 / 50-1, you never know! Always looking for the upset”, says Justin Snaith.
Zapatillas: “It wouldn’t surprise me to see him make his presence felt”, says Brett Crawford.
Pomp and Power: “From a 19 draw, very hard, he’s going to have a lot of luck in running and a lot of things to go his way”, says Justin Snaith.
Waterberry Lane: “He’s a horse I bought to go to Mauritius, but never got an import permit, so we’re running him in the Met”, says Ricky Maingard.
Rain In Holland: “Nice 70-1 chance. I wouldn’t have picked 15 (draw), but we will deal with it. Don’t leave her out”, says Sean Tarry.
Gem King: “Not an easy race being drawn 18, but I’m hoping for a good run”, says Piet Steyn.
