Disappointing runs from Green Haze and Youcanthurrylove in a Pinnacle Stakes over 1 600m on the Inside track at Turffontein on Saturday has resulted in their respective merit ratings being dropped.
Youcanthurrylove has gone down from a rating of 114 to 110 after finishing one from last and has again failed to confirm the form of his third place in the Grade 1 SA Classic.
Green Haze finished at the back of the field in the race won by Astrix.
As a result, Youcanthurrylove has fallen from 11th to 14th position on the log, while listed winner Green Haze dropped one spot from 10th to 11th position.
There were also updates to merit ratings of some of the horses who fall into the MR Order part of the log.
Got The Greenlight still holds top spot from Summer Pudding with Queen Supreme in third place.
Second entries close at 11am on Monday, 2 November, after which the weights will be announced. Final entries close at 11am on Monday, 16 November with declarations by 11am on Tuesday, 17 November.
The maximum size of the field is 20 runners.
