Captain America, only sixth behind Legal Eagle in the Premier’s Champions after finishing second to the same horse in the Horse Chestnut, will not be seen again this season.

Brett Crawford (“He will come back home to Cape Town for a rest and he will stay off for the rest of the season”) will again aim him at the L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate and the J & B Met. He finished fourth and third in these two races in January.
