July First Entries

I see Hollywood have opened betting "FIRST NOMINATIONS TOP FINISHER". This is really good of them. In other words if you have a bet with them, you wont have to worry about any further horses accepting. Basically its the July without De Kock.

As far as I am aware Mcmillan has been writing for independent newspapers for years. Are you questioning whether he may now have a job for GC directly now?

MDK's comments on early entry here www.tabnews.co.za/?p=9334

I just use the electronic press AL ,hadn`t came accross his name before..

Fair enough - I did not see anyone responding to your question so used the opportunityto put you in the picture. Independent Newspapers by the way are sponsors of some big races such as the The Mercury Sprint and the Daily News - for your interests

I am of the opinion trainer G Van Zyl should have nominated River Lodge.
Impressive last two runs.forms also better than his other nominated runners at moment.
