Diego de Gouveia wins on Anything Goes and SentbyDestiny at Greyville
No big deal if a top jockey such as Anton Marcus, Lyle Hewitson or Warren Kennedy bags a grade 1 double at a race meeting, but it certainly is when the feat is achieved by a little-known 24-year-old.
Anything Goes, trained at Randjesfontein by Stuart Pettigrew, had notched three good wins in her home province, but this was the acid test against serious opposition. Interestingly, it was not the jockey’s first grade 1 success as he partnered Mike de Kock’s stayer Atyaab to victory in the 2019 Cape Derby.
It is hardly surprising that the winner Paths Of Victory, trained by Gareth van Zyl and ridden by S’manga Khumalo, did not get a mention by pundits. The five-year-old’s form looked far inferior to the likes of It’s My Turn, Marchingontogether and Imperial Ruby.
