South Africa’s premier weight-for-age mile contest has been won by
some of the greatest horses to grace the turf in this country and was
recently ranked among the top five races in the world.
Justin Snaith’s Legislate recently returned from a four month break
following his sensational July win to hack up in the Green Point
Stakes and with homeground advantage, he will have plenty of support.
Louis The King will be ridden by champion jockey Piere Strydom who
rode a brilliant race on him to get up in the last stride to deny his
stable companion Killua Castle in the Sansui Summer Cup at the end of
November.
Brett Crawford’s Champions Cup winner Futura heads the balance of the
nine horse field, that sees Joey Ramsden taking his chance with Kingvoldt, a recent placer in the Cape Guineas.
