Breeding: What A Winter – Clarion Call by Kabool (GB)
Trainer: Duncan Howells
Jockey: *Rachel Venniker
Wgt: 55.5kg
Draw: 1 (12 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 7/1
He was very disappointing last time out, but he did run in soft conditions which doesn’t suit him. He is very well in himself and we have been able to put a lot more work into him heading into this race. He has had two gallops and is a lot fitter. If reproducing his best form, he is more than capable of a first three finish.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:100. Didn’t enjoy soft conditions last time. Has ability and chance on penultimate run.

Jockey: Kabelo Matsunyane

The blinkers will be removed for this outing as he has been misbehaving in the starting stalls. The stable have schooled him at home in the gates and he will be fitted with a hood. We are hoping to see him behave on race day and we are hoping to see an improved effort.
Winning Form Comment: 2nd run after rest. Blinkers OFF. Best MR:89. Had excuses at the start last time. Watch.
