Snaith runners dominate the betting in July day features

SHORT PRICE: SNOWDANCE IS A 5-10 CHANCE TO WIN THE GARDEN PROVINCE STAKES

- Jack Milner

De Kock could provide a second Pick 6 banker with Soqrat

Betting World have priced up on all 12 races for Saturday's Greyville card, which is headed up by the R4.25-million Vodacom Durban July over 2200M. Runners from the Justin Snaith yard dominate the bet-ting in many of the features and especially in the Grade 1 Durban July where he will saddle 22-10 fa-vourite African Night Sky. He also sends out second favourite Do It Again and joint third-favourite Made To Conquer who will be rid-den by Jeff Lloyd. Lloyd has won races all over the world including a number of ma-jor features but the Durban July is one race that has eluded him. Elu-sive Silva, who will be ridden by Bernard Fayd'Herbe, is the fourth runner from the Snaith yard and he is at 12-1.

His last runner Star Express and she is quoted at 40-1, one of the main outsiders for the race.

His strongest runner at the meeting is Snowdance who runs in the other Grade 1 race on the card, the Jonsson Workwear Gar-den Province Stakes over i600m. She is at 5-10 and is going to be a very popular banker in the Pick 6, especially as she is beautifull­y drawn in pole position. She has tremendous gate speed and will be out of the stall in a flash. It would come as no surprise if she should lead from start to finish.

The one race in which Snaith does not hold a strong hand is the Grade 2 Durban Golden Horseshoe for two-year-olds over 1400m. Runners from the Mike de Kock yard hold the top two positions in the with unbeaten Soqrat at 11-10 and Barahin at 4-1. Soqrat could well be another Pick 6 bank-er although stablemate Barahin has the advantage of having won at Greyville over the distance.
