Jay Peg runners fared consistently well over the weekend –not only did the sire’s only two Turffontein runners win, but his other runners at Kenilworth on Saturday all finished in the money.

Jay Peg’s daughter Waity Katie made it three wins on the bounce when she won a f&m handicap over 1600m at Turffontein for trainer David Nieuwenhuizen.
Bred by the Druk-My-Niet Stud, the five-year-old, who has now five wins to her name, has won or placed in 15 of her 28 outings with her earnings fast approaching the R400 000 mark.

Jay Peg is also sire of the consistent Jika, who romped to a two and a half length front running win over 1400m for champion trainer Sean Tarry and champion jockey Anthony Delpech. Bred by Avontuur Thoroughbred Farm, the lightly raced four-year-old has now won twice, and been placed another three times, from just seven outings.
