CAPE FLYING CHAMPIONSHIPS

When is this race ??

26th.....mid afternoon...will the SE be howling or not?Wait and see.....no wind mon to thurs next week...so far!

Lance Armstrong could be a supplementary entry? If not WAW (tu)

The only concern with What a winter is that he is an entire and hence always possible that he haemo-concentrates thus affecting ability. However Mike Bass has done a great job with him and he is by far the top sprinter in the country now. If he is found wanting then Cap Alright and Cape Royal next best. Huge step up in class for Via Africa, I doubt she will run a place let alone win.

with all due respect...sprinting...over 1000 metres is normally won on the jump....class only starts counting over further...Via Afrika (what is the correct spelling?) runs from the front....time is what counts...the class of the runner up is what may count....
...
...
...is what makes racing so great for me...
will the gate speed of Via Afrika overcome the environmental conditions [headwind/tailwind], [undulating course, sharp track...]
^{LUCK in Running}

When will betting open for this race?

What a Winter is so laid back at home he is half asleep. Heamoconcentration has never been an issue with him.
