Springbok hopefuls get

a Wimbledon reminder

 BY PHIL DONALDSON

BALLYMAC CLEA, who heads the first set of standings for the 2015 William Hill Springbok, appears in Saturday’s first trial stakes for the Wimbledon competition.

Norah McEllistrim’s dog, who posted a calculated 29.76sec over the 480m Plough Lane jumps course on December 17, runs from trap two in the first warm-up race for the popular annual and will do battle with leading local novices Julius George (Tony Taylor) and Caddie Man (Bernie Doyle). Razldazl Clyde also runs for the McEllistrim kennel.

And in what is the first significant week in terms of preparation for the competition, the racing office has reminded trainers that any Springbok hopefuls must have completed a satisfactory trial at any GBGB venue by this Thursday. As in previous years, the first round (Saturday February 21) will comprise the fastest 36 qualifers over Wimbledon’s 480m jumps course prior to the competition closing date, which this year is Wednesday, February 18.
