SUMMER CUP RUNNETH OVER WITH MOCHA BLEND SURPRISE
The Straits Times

Shock winner delivers first Grade 1 career success to trainer Robinson, jockey Godden
The sun shone brightly, the crowds packed in, the betting was great and it was like old times at Turffontein but, unfortunately for punters, some of the results did not match the jolly atmosphere.
More pointedly, the outcome of the ZAR6 million (S$454,000) Grade 1 Betway Summer Cup (2,000m) was a bit of a train smash.
The race was won by $143 shot Mocha Blend, trained by Frank Robinson and ridden by Tristan Godden.
She came from near-last in the early stages to beat another outsider, Olivia’s Way (Andrew Fortune) for Roy Magner, by a half-length fora filly 1-2 finish in South Africa’s richest race.
The Tony Peter-trained Ultimate King (Muzi Yeni) was a further 1 1/2 lengths back in third with Busstopinhounslow (Rachel Venniker) in fourth for Grant Maroun.
