Klawervlei’s four-time Gr1 winning stallion Twice Over has made the perfect start to the 2021/22 season
The Twice Over filly Moon In June sent out a positive omen for Vodacom Durban July hat-trick hopeful Do It Again
The former SA Champion trainer saddled seven winners over the two days
Drakenstein Stud recently welcomed a three-parts brother to multiple award-winning SA Horse Of The Year, Do It Again
The Alan Greeff machine maintained the momentum from last season with four winners at Fairview on Friday
Snaith team’s terrific training feat as Do It Again makes it consecutive victories
Cape lightweight jockey Anthony Andrews doesn’t get a lot of quality opportunities but he showed his talent when maintaining his nerve and taking full advantage of a handy weight
Joey Ramsden may well be looking forward to many servings of crispy duck after he produced first and third in his opening attack this season on the 2yo programme
One of the most striking aspects, in terms of pedigrees, of the 2019 L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate meeting was the success of European champion Twice Over
Do It Again outpointed the gallant Cape Guineas star Soqrat to join Mike Bass gallopers Trademark and Pocket Power as one of only three horses to achieve the July – Queen’s Plate double this century
“I must catch a wake-up.” The words of jockey Richard Fourie who tumbled out of the saddle of the fancied Bunker Hunt at the start of the Politician Stakes but who would go on to win the very next three races – two Gr1’s and a Gr2!
It is eerie to think that there would have been no Siren’s Call, Sound Of Warning, or for that matter Call To Unite, had fate not decreed that Enchanted Cove follow her dam to South Africa, and that Peter de Beyer had the foresight to return Elusive Fort back home from the States as well!
There’s lots more to play for!
