Updated Met Log

I think the final field is Tuesday? so betting might close for a day or two

Does anyone know if Jet Belle has been withdrawn or is still part of the nominations for the final declaration of the field ? Thanks.

Tellina to bypass J&B Met
David Thiselton
The Geoff Woodruff-trained Tellina will not be running in the J&B Met and instead will be kept at home to contest the Graded features in Johannesburg from March through to May.
This was a joint decision made by owner Terry Young of A2A Tours and his partner in the horse, Dr Andreas Jacobs of Maine Chance Farms.
Young said the Silvano colt had been in “fine fettle” since his excellent win in the Grade 3 London News Stakes over 1 800m at Turffontein under Glen Hatt last Sunday and he and Jacobs had consequently decided against travelling to Cape Town in favour of a Johannesburg campaign.
Tellina will leave for overseas at the end of the season where the plan is to race him in Dubai, Hong Kong and Singapore.
Young added that the four-year-old would have been campaigning in Dubai right now if his unlucky short-head defeat in last year’s Grade 1 SA Classic, when struck over the head at a crucial stage, had instead been a victory.

I posted on the MOMF thread that the defending trainer has no runners this year.
Well done on Lake Arthur making the field.

MOMF & CTN drawn 9 and 10!

Beach Beauty runs in the Fillies even.

Investec Derby field is very competitive.
