A further two scratchings have reduced the number left in the running for the final field to line up in the Gr1 Cape Town Met presented by World Sports Betting to just 12.
Paul Matchett’s star filly War Of Athena and Mike de Kock star Malmoos – coincidentally the pair who made history when winning the 2021 SA Triple Tiara and SA Triple Crown on the same afternoon – were both taken out this morning.
The final declarations are due by 11h00 on Wednesday evening and the final field is expected to be announced early Wednesday evening.
