In the absence of any Cape raiders, Sharon Kotzen produced the decent stayer Multi Gold in fine fettle to win the R110 000 Lakeside Handicap
A drop in distance to 2200m and a switch to the polytrack. Jacques Strydom and the Kruger family, new trainer and owners of the Querari gelding Desert Wisdom, must have believed the R110 000 Lakeside Handicap was theirs for the taking!
Grant Paddock took the training honours at Fairview on Friday with a nice winning double ridden by Luyola Mxothwa
Tara Laing’s 7yo Dynasty gelding Drill Sargeant is one of the toughest gallopers in training and he showed his true mettle with a fighting performance
A non black-type staying feature on the turf at Fairview today heads the national racing programme on a weekend devoid of any stakes races
The Eastern Cape surely boasts the most competitive staying ranks in the country and the Lakeside Handicap on Friday didn’t disappoint with a son of a former Rothman’s July Handicap winner outstaying his opposition

Alan Greeff’s recent Eastern Cape ‘Triple Crown’ star My Best Shot and the Lucky Houdalakis galloper Musical Score, a 3yo son of Oratorio, and a winner of his last two starts, are the two newbies
It is no mean feat to win at feature level from 1400m to 2400m, but My Best Shot proved equal to the task and set himself up for East Cape Horse Of The Year honours – and maybe a Hollywoodbets Durban July supplementary entry?
