Just my opinion, and I know a lot of guys like him on this Board, but Smit is a poor commentator. Do you know how many times a FAVOURITE has "found a gap on the rail and is running on strongly", or "has found daylight on the outside and is in the clear and coming home strongly" and his favourite saying "has a clear run on the outside and is picking them off one by one" only for the favourite to run out of the TOP SIX...go back and check...

When Malherbe says a horse is is in the clear and its coming home strongly, or has found a gap on the rail and is running on strongly, it wins or runs second.

It's just an opinion guys...

it happened again our friend Karl off the board in the last race and another observation why doesthe first 3 or 4 favourites run off the board in the Cape last race 70% of the times

Trying to keep away the week before July any more carry overs?

Malherbe is excellent,consistent and accurate.

I thought I made huge money today. Smit called Rain Gal 3rd in the 7th.
Thought I caught the PA with the 3 in the last leg. I had 4 horses in that race.

Expected to see a 6 figure amount in HW.
Shocked to see only my balance reflected.

I am told that he didnot see a horse (Susanna) on the outside.

I could drink a bottle right now.

Thats a stiff one!
I took Susanna out to get a 25% pa,would have won 4x full bet
Now I lost for R24!
DAMNNNNN!!!

It amazes as how guys could pick a R24.00 PA in todays card .
