"The Tiger" set to defend his crown
Despite dismal runs in his last two races (finishing last in both)
Eyeofthetiger has stood his ground at the first acceptance stage of
this years Vodacom Durban July and will be partnered by regular
jockey, G. Schlechter.
His last two races have been so abysmal that he may not even make the
final field if current form is taken into account, although, with him
being "the title holder" so to speak, his current form may be
overlooked.
Other confirmed rides are as follows:
Not all of the above horses are guaranteed a run but the jockey
appointments are confirmed, should they make the final field.
Unconfirmed reports are that B. Fayd'herbe will ride Pocket Power,
Jeff Lloyd will be on the filly Sun Classique and
Felix Coetzee has
been offered Royal Airforce.
However, none of these appointments have been confirmed but I will
keep you all informed the moment anything concrete materialises.
Till the next time, good racing.
The G Man
