A lean or profitable festive season for bookmakers — that rests on the outcome of Saturday’s R1m WSB Summer Cup at Turffontein.
“My fancy is Cornish Pomodoro to win from Divine Odyssey and Youcanthurrylove. Sean [Tarry] has a wonderful record in this race,” he added. Cornish Pomodoro is very much the unknown quantity in the 2,000m event, yet there are persistent whispers from Randjesfontein that the four-year-old can provide owner Chris van Niekerk with another big race victory.
Michael’s second and third choices are interesting as Divine Odyssey has turned in three average efforts since winning the Jubilee Handicap in July. However, the six-year-old’s supporters can point to the fact that he stayed on to finish a creditable seventh in the Vodacom Durban July. Michael is taking into account that Pack Leader finished four lengths behind Cornish Pomodoro when they clashed in October, but Laird’s runner was badly impeded at the start.
