Classic Day First Entries

February 2024

South Africa's leading three-year-old Sandringham Summit who scored an emphatic win in the TAB Gauteng Guineas earlier this month is an entry in both the Grade 1 H F Oppenheimer Horse Chestnut Stakes where he could take on his elders including the likes of Equus horse of the year Princess Calla, July hero Winchester Mansion, top Cape horse At My Command and the Grade 1 SA Classic, the second leg of the Triple Crown where he will need to show he can also be brilliant over 1800m. The exciting colt may meet famililar foe Main Defender in the Horse Chestnut along with the one that beat the latter recently, Melech - what a race that could turn out to be! The smashing filly Gimme A Nother has been unstoppable and bids to remain unbeaten in six starts but in the Wilgerbosdrift SA Fillies Classic may meet Bavarian Beauty who like Sandringham Summit was the top filly in her time as a two-year-old. Brilliant racing, bring it on!
