Arividicio gets up

Arivdicio was considered just short of his best at Scottville on Sunday and that he managed to get up and win was encouraging.

Also good to see was the way he reeled in the well-backed Quandary over 1200m, a distance short of his best, and then fought him for a few strides to win under in-form Kabelo Matsunyane.

Arividicio is regarded as a talented horse and he’s likely to improve more from here on. He has returned to Johannesburg with the remainder of Mike’s small string that was based at Siummerveld  for the KZN season. 

Arividicio is by Flower Alley from Mohallella, by Exceed and Excel, and races for Mike, Joy and James Armitage, Mark Lieveaux, Larry Nestadt and JJ van der Linden. He was bred by Shadwell Stud.
