Argenteus looks the horse for the course

Lightly raced three-time winner Argenteus, out of Andre Nel’s stable, found one better in her last two outings, but should recoup losses at the Greyville Polytrack tonight when teamed up with Gareth Wright again and contesting Race 7 and main event, a MR 82 Handicap (F&M) over 1600m.

This five-year-old daughter of Silvano has a definite affinity for the Polytrack where she has won three times in just five starts – the last two of which was a fine double over 1600m and 1800m.

However, expect a bold bid from Robbie and Shannon Hill-trained Kilmokea with apprentice Serino Moodley up.

Also in with claims is Dean Kannemeyer-trained Miss Milanna (Keagan de Melo) who has been threatenin­g a third career win with De Melo up.

Next best are Lady Li Lay, Pearl Glow and Double ‘O’ Eight.

There are two Anton Marcus mounts worth following earlier on the card.

He looks poised to strike in Race 2 when teamed up with Dennis Bosch-trained Chantyman and in Race 4 with French Legend.
