The G1 Audemars Piguet Queen Elizabeth II Cup winning exploits of trainers John Moore and Mike de Kock have been well exposed but they are not the only previous winners with a shot at 2014 AP QEII Cup glory.

Mike de Kock, South Africa's globetrotting trainer and two time G1 Audemars Piguet Queen Elizabeth II Cup winner, returns to Hong Kong in 2014 with a dual pronged attack on the 27 April feature.

Trainer Dean Kannemeyer has warned that Capetown Noir, likely favourite for the Vodacom Durban July, would only line up in the big race if he was reasonably handicapped.
