I know Espumanti ran reasonably well on Queens Plate day,but maybe the Majorca is the better target?

If he has no runner that will be The July,The Met and the Queens Plate he has not had a runner in

So if you own horses in S.A it wud seem fruitless to send them to his stable? Focus seems more international..

There is also a high risk that Mike De Kock might loose his crown as a Champion trainer in South Africa.

He has just won the SA championship.............again and is the biggest international trainer we have, seems his focus is just right. If you are constantly taking your best horses to race overseas then it stands to reason that your local string will be thin from time to time. Keep in mind the prize money that is on offer this season in Dubai which is surely in the owners interest.
