Itâs a power-packed Met at Kenilworth Mike Moon
Belgarion, ridden by Richard Fourie, won the 2020 Vodacom Durban July and is the favourite for the Met. Picture: Candiese Lenferna The Cape Town Met is a much-storied horse race, but seldom in its almost 140 renewals can it have had a line-up as talented and competitive as this Saturdayâs.
Only 11 go to post for the R1 million Grade 1 contest over 2000m, but pundits are in broad agreement that only two of those have zero chance of winning. Connections of Sovereign Spirit and Silver Operator might disagree with this assessment, but, honestly, if either were to win it would be up there with the biggest shocks ever seen at Kenilworth racecourse.
