On Saturday December 17th at 15h40, 15 of SA's best 3yo Colts and gelding will line up at the 1600m mark @ Hollywoodbets Kenilworth Racecourse, in a bid to see who is KING. Mike de Kock who is the winning most visiting trainer sets the scene for us. Remember Horse Chestnut, Domino Man, Flight Alert, Noa From Goa and Socrat. He send two top milers from Gauteng to take on Charles Dickens, Cousin Casey and the rest.
This weekend the L’Ormarins King’s Plate will be held for the first time at Kenilworth Racecourse in Cape Town, South Africa. It would have been the 162 running of the Queens Plate, changed for obvious reasons.
The historic race was first held in 1861 as the Queen’s Plate, in honour of Queen Victoria, before being run as the King’s Plate from 1902 to 1952.
With the ascension of King Charles III, the race has reverted to the King’s Plate.
Dual, LQP winner Jet Dark will be lining up once again for trainer Justin Snaith and patrons Nick Jonsson and Tommy Crowe.
The imposing bay arrives in fine form, having won his prep race after a short break.
However, he faces a strong field including potential superstar, the unbeaten three-year-old Charles Dickens for trainer Candice Bass-Robinson at Bass Racing Stables and Drakenstein Stud
