Trainer Glen Kotzen has mapped out a suitably ambitious campaign for high class filly Jet Aglow in a bid to end her sequence of G1 placings.

Kotzen said: “She is having paddock rest at the moment but she goes to Natal for the season.

"She will be set for the KRA Fillies Guineas on May 4. Her main target will be the Woolavington 2000 on June 1 and she will also go for the Garden Province on Vodacom Durban July day.

“She is a very good filly."

Jet Aglow was an unlucky fourth in the Klawervlei Majorca last time when she was caught wide and over-raced.

She was also third in the G1 Cape Fillies Guineas and second in the G1 Paddock Stakes.

Kotzen wil be bidding for his third Garden Province following success with Lady Windermere in 2009 and Princess Victoria last season. He also won the 2010 Woolavington with Imperious Star.

Yogas Govender also has his eyes on the Garden Province with Razzle Dazzle Rose who finished fifth in the Majorca.

“She ran a cracking race from a bad draw that day. There are a few fillies races for her in Durban and I think she will get 2200m but the Garden Province would be the eventual target," Govender said.

Meanwhile Patriotic Rebel, switched from Brett Crawford to Vaughan Marshall on the eve of the Cape Derby, is to be aimed at the East Cape Derby at Fairview on May 12 according to his new trainer.

Marshall won the race last year with Tribal Dance and will have a big show for a double after Patriotic Rebel was beaten little more than a length when fourth in the Cape Derby.

Marshall has All Is Secret set for the South African Fillies Sprint at Scottsville on May 25 while Dubai Gina also goes to Durban with the Ladbrokes Gold Cup at the end of July as her main objective.
