Anton Marcus flies into Cape Town on Saturday for six rides at Kenilworth’s Prawn Festival meeting including last year’s winner Coltrane in the CTS Chairman’s Cup.

Coltrane’s trainer Joey Ramsden traditionally dominates this two-miler – he has won it seven times this century – and he is responsible for half the six runners with Bernard Fayd’Herbe on Grade 1 winner King Of Pain and Donovan Dillon partnering Gallica Rose.

Lohnromance, despite being officially the worst horse in the race, will be one of the focus points in the Vasco Prix Du Cap. She has won her only two starts with ease and Andre Nel was thwarted in his bid to run her in the Klawervlei Majorca when she suffered an over-reach.

J & B Met hero JP van der Merwe will also be in town. He has three rides including the Paul Reeves-trained Sea Cat in the Smart Call colours in the Prix Du Cap.

The Juvenile Plate was scrapped yesterday morning when the 12 entries attracted only three acceptors. There will be draws throughout the day for household appliances worth R50 000.
