All racing enthusiasts must attend Ngong on Sunday before intermission

Never really tested in his two uncomplicated strikes so far, Saint Moritz could have to tackle Empress of Fate, Rahul, and, Wimborne, in the Sir Ali Bin Salim Stakes Mile. He is a tranquil, mature, contented, colt, with no issues.

Foreseeing a mind-blowing finale to this 2-year-old terms race. Pundits are naturally saddened that this is an end-of-season meeting, but at least our Champion Jockey, Lesley Sercombe, is back where she belongs. An unruly visit from Lieutenant Corona, rendered Lesley unable to participate last time. Ramazan Wako is also powerless to join the fiesta, having suffered neck injuries after a bad fall.

Notably, the Dollies Derby Nairobi Town Plate, did not fill. It has run for centuries, so, definitely, an attraction to be sorely missed. Immediately after proceedings, customary awards will be presented to all those concerned as flag bearers.
