Investec - Derby CPT/Epsom
10 years 4 months ago
Imagine if Ertijaal could go straight from here to Epsom to challenge the UK Derby contenders without any restrictions and a direct trip over there..
It would be Investec's dream and such a marketing opportunity for racing here and themselves. I am sure Sheikh Hamdan and his team would also be up to the challenge.
It's such a pity that between SA and the rest of the world we can't make it happen. There were no doubt as usual a lot of English race goers at Kenilworht today which would undoubtedly create interest in Ertijaal if he were to be carded for Epsom.

I was under the impression that he could run but will have to give weight away as is what happens when our 3 year olds run against the northern hemisphere 3 year olds in Dubai in their Derby and Guineas?
