LEGAL EAGLE
David Thiselton: Champion trainer Sean Tarry says imperious miler Legal Eagle will be nominated for the Grade 1 Rising Sun Gold Challenge, but is “unlikely” to run, and thus the clash everybody wants to see, Legal Eagle vs Snowdance and Tap O’ Noth, only has an outside chance of materialising.
HERMOSO MUNDO
Durban – Highveld trainer Weiho Marwing will bid to win the unofficial stayers’ triple crown…
BRETT CRAWFORD
Mike Moon: Trainer Brett Crawford is having a golden season in KwaZulu-Natal and he swooped on a third Grade 1 trophy in just eight days when his gallant old-timer Captain America outgalloped the opposition in the 1600m Rising Sun Gold Challenge on Saturday.
MARINARESCO
Nicci Garner: Marinaresco, third on the log and a 13-2 shot with Betting World for the Vodacom Durban July next month, comes well at this time of the year and could have the R1-million Rising Sun Gold Challenge (Grade 1) at Greyville on Saturday at his mercy.
BLACK ARTHUR
Durban – Justin Snaith-trained Black Arthur is 10-1 fourth favourite with Betting World for the Vodacom Durban July, yet is not on the latest July log, which was released on Tuesday.
CAPTAIN AMERICA
Durban – Brett Crawford will attempt to make it five Grade 1s for the season on Saturday at Greyville when the mellowed six-year-old Captain America revisits a course that was thought to not suit him as a headstrong three-year-old colt.
