Often the calm after the storm with so many big names going around just a few days earlier, there is nothing shallow about the 10-race programme.The card is headed by the Non Black-Type Clapham Stakes over 1600m which is race 8. Kamchatka plummets in class after tasting high-race stakes in her last two efforts. Despite top weight of 60kg, she could take victory under Serino Moodley who is in town for Andre Nel.
