Justin Snaith's THE GATEKEEPER could be the horse to beat in Saturday's Grade 1 JONSSON WORKWEAR CAPE DERBY.
KOMMETDIEDING has, unfortunately been scratched. He was the serious threat to challenge the likes of THE GATEKEEPER.
Justin Snaith has made no secret of THE GATEKEEPER being his choice horse for the Vodacom Durban July later this year.
So Saturday's run will be an important one for the 3 year old THE GATEKEEPER. He is coming out of a very good formline even though he only placed 5th in that race, THE CAPE GUINEAS, also in Kenilworth.
However, that was a very closely placed finish. See below.
Other strong contenders are, of course, RUSSIAN ROCK that won the CAPE GUINEAS and LINEBACKER that came second.
Whatever happens, it will be a great race on Saturday.
