On My Honour was the horse who came down in the Betway Summer Cup in a nasty incident, but he has recovered well and put up a fine gallop at Summerveld on Monday.
It was his first gallop since the incident and Trainer Glen Kotzen said, “He pulled up sound and is happy.”
On My Honour has shown signs of huge potential and the best has probably not been seen of him, so he could represent good value in the pre-noms betting for the Hollywoodbets Durban July.
Hollywoodbets have him at 75/1 for a win and 12/1 for the first four.
He should be seen out again soon in his bid to qualify for another run in the July.
He did not have the best of luck in the race last year.
Holding Thumbs is another Kotzen-trained horse who could try and qualify for the July.
This courageous horse has fine recent form over staying trips that has seen his merit rating rise to 119.
Kotzen has one of the best maidens in the land, the two-year-old Erik The Red colt Roskilde, who has finished a close up third to Red Spice in the Listed JC Le Roux Summer Juvenile Stakes over 1100m and he followed up with 0,40 length second to Red Spice in the Gr 3 Ridgemont Gr 3 Cape Of Good Hope Nursery over 1200m, where he received only 1kg.
Roskilde qualifies for the R3 million Race Sales Slipper over 1200m at Hollywoodbets Greyville on April 11.
Kotzen finished third in the Cape Of Good Hope Nursey with another maiden juvenile, the filly Lady Nancy (Legislate).
He mentioned her and Lady Jean (Real Gone Kid), who won second time out, as two others who have qualified for the Slipper.
The useful four-year-old Global View filly Disting is among other Kotzen-trained horses who will be campaigning during the Champions Season.
