Ashton Park, considered good enough to run in the L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate, is under consideration for the R750 000 Grand Heritage at the Vaal on October 1.

Candice Bass-Robinson said: “I won’t run Night Trip in the race as he has 69kg but perhaps Ashton Park (62.5kg) could run while Night Trip may go for a 1 450m Grade 2 (the Jo’burg Spring Challenge) at Turffontein.

“They would run from our new Summerveld yard. We have 24 horses there at the moment including 15 that we sent from Cape Town.”

The yard has 30 boxes and Robert Fayd’Herbe is staying on in KZN to run it. Five two-year-olds based there are being syndicated at R27 500 a share which includes all costs for the first five months.

> Aldo Domeyer, forced to miss two Andre Nel winners at Kenilworth last Saturday, will be back in action there this Saturday when he has five booked rides including Viking Voyage and Cuduiari for Nel.

He said yesterday: “My back troubles me now and again. I had to see a specialist to make sure that everything is in order but I am fine again now.”
