SUBJECT: Supplementary entry for the J&B Met
DATE: Monday 12 January 2015
RELEASED BY: Phumelela Gaming and Leisure Ltd

Astro News was today supplemented for the R2.5 million Grade 1 J&B Met over
2000m at Kenilworth on Saturday 31 January.
The six-year-old is owned by Fred Crabbia and was previously trained by
Charles Laird. He is now with champion trainer Justin Snaith and had his
first run for his new stable in the 1400m HP Security Pinnacle Stakes at
Kenilworth on 25 October.
This was the second and final supplementary entry stage and cost R18,800
compared with R5,700 at the first entry stage on 3 December.

Im hoping that AOW will go up against Ertijaal in the Derby....

Titch I wasnt that impressed with Ertjal yesterday had the run of the race and the short straight theory was the same for the whole field

Jooste has plenty of Derby options without Act Of War

Ertijaal not only had the inside track to contend with he also had to race handy and both were very much against him... when he is allowed to settle off the pace and run through horses you will see just how very good this horse is...10 furlong @ Kenilworth is absolutely perfect for him and maybe AOW will beat him but he will know he is in a race...

The rest of the field also had to run on the inside track ?

Plus is greyville not as tight ?

The J&B Met log has been released and contained few surprises, although the reigning Equus Horse Of The Year Legislate did still acquire the number one spot, despite being replaced as ante-post bookmaker’s favourite by Futura after the shock result of the L’Ormarin’s Queen’s Plate. Futura won the Queen’s Plate last Saturday, despite an interrupted preparation, while Legislate finished last, despite starting at cramped odds of 9/20. Futura is number two on the log.

The Triple Crown and Sansui Summer Cup hero Louis The King was a touch unlucky in the Queen’s Plate and finished strongly for second. He is in number three on the log, one ahead of the best three-year-old in the country, the Gr 1 Grand Parade Cape Guineas winner Act Of War.

Champion trainer Justin Snaith has six horses in the top twenty and two more on the outside looking in.

Louis The King’s Geoff Woodruff-trained stablemate Killua Castle earned the fifth spot through his narrow Summer Cup runner up finish and his impressive win in last weekend’s Gr 3 London News Stakes. The Woodruff-trained Tellina, fifth in the Queen’s Plate, is in ninth place on the log, but his continually disappointing stablemate Rake’s Chestnut is outside of the top 20.

Mike Bass also has three in the top twenty, while Brett Crawford has two and one other who is just outside.

Joey Ramsden has two in the top twenty, including the only three-year-old in the race, Act Of War.

It is perhaps surprising to find the seven-year-old Gold Onyx, third in the Queen’s Plate, in sixth place on the log ahead of the like of the Gr 1 winner King Of Pain. However, that is likely due to the latter’s lack of a run since finishing second to Futura in the Gr 1 Champions Cup last July.

The only new entry at the final supplementary stage, the Justin Snaith-trained Astro News, has just scraped into the top 20.

The connections of Johnny Rockets, De Kock, Rake’s Chestnut and True Master will face a few nail-biting days ahead of the final field announcement as they are the only horses of the remaining 24 entries that are outside of the top 20. However, the only filly still among the entries, Jet Belle, who is currently eighth on the log, might provide one place as her trainer Glen Kotzen said she would probably run in the Gr 1 Klawervlei Majorca Stakes instead.

The final field announcement will be broadcast on Tellytrack, channel 239 on the DSTV bouquet, at 18h30 live on Monday 19 January. The R2, 5 million J&B Met will run on January 31 at Kenilworth Racecourse with an even brighter shine attached to it with the announcement that every person on course who purchased a general entrance ticket at www.computicket.co.za will stand a chance of winning a diamond pendant valued at a breath taking R500, 000.

Gold Onyx 6th on the log, I rate I'm safe *touch wood*.. Will get a run for my money on the day at least.. Hope Mr Tarry keeps Behr on him..

LOL, was this log put together by you?
