2 – Monkey’s Wedding
Breeding: Hawwaam – Promise Of Rain by Dynasty
Trainer: Juan Nel
Jockey: Chad Little
Wgt: 58.5kg
Draw: 3 (9 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 5/2
He finished second over 1800m on this course, last week Friday. He has taken the run well and jumps from an ideal draw of three. There doesn’t seem to be a natural frontrunner in this contest which could play into our favour. If all goes according to plan, he should be competitive.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:72. Found one better last week. Chance if this run has not come too soon.

She was running on when fifth over 1400m on this course last time. She is drawn widest of all but Marco van Rensburg knows her well and will adopt the same tactics. She is doing well at home and with luck in running, we can expect a big effort from her.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:78. Beaten narrowly in last two starts. Will be mowing down the frontrunners.
