Today's Racing :

De Kock holds strong hand

As expected trainer Mike de Kock will have a major say on Guineas Day at Turffontein on Saturday 27 February. The former SA champion trainer runs three horses in the Grade 1 Empress Club Stakes, two in the R1-million Gauteng Guineas, six in the Grade 2 Gauteng Fillies Guineas and two in the Hawaii Stakes over 1400m.
The best of De Kock’s runners looks to be in the Empress Club Stakes where he sends out Mother Russia. Since joining his yard the Windrush filly has won the Ipi Tombe Stakes, the Grade 1 Paddock Stakes and finished runner-up to River Jetez in the J&B Met with Pocket Power behind her.
Marcus, who has ridden her to both of those victories, is in the saddle again.
