15 Males and 4 Females , everyone of them a Graded SW , make this the strongest field ever assembled for a WFA race in SAF Racing history
All credit to Greg Bortz and Hollywood !
Herewith a summary of their best achievement , and the highest Free Handicap FMR recorded by each –
NB the scale is based on 130 for males and 125 for females for
BEST IN AN AVERAGE YEAR
Same concept as the English Free Hcp which set 9 stone (126 lb) for the best in an average year
15 MALE RUNNERS
AL MUTHANA (AUS) 5g 133
Mainguard
Won Gold Challenge, Kings Plate, Hawaii , Wolf Power
Will he or won’t he stay this Ken 2000m ?! His sire = pure speed ,
his dam = solid classic , from the family of Northern Dancer
He ran a 123 when 6 lengths back to
Sparkling Water (rec 10 lb) in July, straight after a 130 in winning the Gold Challenge
Sledgehammer
may hold the key : he ran 139 in two Mets at 4 and 5 and in between
these ran a 130 in the July when 13th 8 lengths back to Principle Boy (
rec 16lb) – trainer Fred Rickaby “he did not see out the 2200 at
Greyville but easily got 2000m at Kenilworth”
Ricky Mainguard – “Al Muthana has done well since the Kings Plate and like Wolf Power I think he will stay this Kenilworth 2000”
Only the race will tell
DO IT AGAIN 8g 133?
Snaith
Won 2x July, Queen’s Plate , Gold Challenge, KZN Guineas , WSB 1900
A
tragic victim of SAF’s primitive race programme , this great horse has
never been run over his optimum distance ! He is a horse of CLASSIC
(2400 -2800m) aptitude, but there is not a single classic major in this
dash-obsessed country
Horse <> Human
1600 = 400
2000 = 800
2400 = 1600
Perhaps Greg Bortz and Hollywood could fix that too
Should he jump well and settle into his rhythm , he will be closing fast at the end
