THE SLEDGEHAMMER (Listed) - COLTRANE to cause the upset

COLTRANE has been racing against far stronger. She has been rested for only under three months and this run could be short of her best. She is probably being aimed at the Gold Cup late in July and this will more than likely be one of his prep runs. Watch over the shorter distance as he has the class. he finished second behind KINGSTON MINES last time. In my opinion, he is the class horse of the field and at 25/1, looks to be excellent value, even for places. He has run at this track before and the Joey Ramsden yard has been in fine form in Cape Town.

KRAMBAMBULI is yet another Justin Snaith runner on the day. He finished fourth to ERTIJAAL last time in a Grade 1. Has the credentials to win. AUCTION KING ran on strongly late last time. That was against stronger. He does give the KZN trainers something of a chance in this race, albeit a small one!

DYNAMIC last rain in the J & B Met. He did not show against FUTURA. He does have the class to win and this Justin Snaith runner, with Sean Cormack aboard again, should not be ignored.

CANDY MOON is talented but ran below par last time.


1st - COLTRANE (2); 2nd - KRAMBAMBULI (9); 3rd - AUCTION KING (11); 4th - DYNAMIC (5); 5th - CANDY MOON (3)
