DANCEWITHTHEDEVIL and The Apache have been allocated top weight of 60kg for the R2-million Sansui Summer Cup, proudly hosted by Gauteng. The Grade 1 race will be run over 2000m on Saturday 26 November.

At Monday’s second entry stage two runners were added to the list while two were withdrawn. Trainer Dean Kannemeyer has entered In Writing while Mike Azzie has supplemented Grade 3 Yellowwood Handicap winner Queen’s Bay into the race.

However, trainer Joey Soma has withdrawn Presidents Champion Challenge winner Happy Landing and Foreign Reserve from the Summer Cup.

Pierre Jourdan, runner-up to Igugu in this year’s Vodacom Durban July, will carry 59.5kg while the Mike de Kock pairing of Ilsanpietro and 2008 champion Rudra have been allocated 58kg.

Two Gun Kid: Dingaans entry.

The final entries close at 9am on Monday 14 November with declarations at 11am on the same day. The draws for barrier positions will be made together with the announcement of the final field on Tuesday 15 November.

There has also been a good entry for the Grade 2 Dingaans to be run over 1600m on the same day. Highly regarded Potala Palace is likely to clash with Straw Market, the only runner to have beaten Mike Azzie’s charge. The one concern is that Potala Palace has drawn poorly at No 33 while Ormond Ferraris’ runner is beautifully positioned at No 8.

De Kock has 13 entries, including highly regarded Golden Chateau, while Geoff Woodruff has entered impressive debut winner Lockheed Jetstar.

Woodruff has also entered Grade 1 Golden Horse Casino Sprint winner Shea Shea to contest the Grade Merchants over 1160m where he could meet a number of De Kock challengers, including Link Man and Gibraltar Blue.

Also among the entries is unbeaten Unannounced, trained by Charles Laird. Should he run he would be dangerous with just 52kg on his back.
