Poor racing is the standard in Gauteng these days...

Platoon is a major runner with Blikers and Strydom

I also thought it was not that difficult and I don't think the Pa will pay much

PEMBA 16/10 win
VIVACIOUS STAR 4/1 6/10 best value
EMPENOSO HENN 14/1 1.68 best outsider
HALABALOO 28/10 0.56
SPEED KEEPER 10/1 21/10
KRUGER GOLD 12/1 2.52
Lots of outsiders....go ew doubles or stick to the structure.....
HOPE YOU GUYS MISSED MY SELECTIONS ...
