RAce 6 - Metro Man

TRADE HALL eachway

R5 n04 place
R6 n0 11 place
R7 6/7 sw
r8 5 place

Ibhola top 3 - 40% return must be (tu)

That was a great example of how much PowerofTheFlower has improved under the care of the Shams,

Well done the Shams (tu)

When PotF just came to the Shams 1st HtH vs Ibhola he was 1,5kg better off to Ibhola for a 2,75lengh beating.
Today is 3 kg worse off to Ibhola for a comprehensive beating showing the training ability very well

Sorry Madjie, I had my 2nd mortgage on it myself, very dissapointing

:X Fark me sidewaze .... cruising in everything, 3 jackpots running and P6 strong, P/A galloping and ...one race is all it takes ...I am so very very close to giving up on SA racing... and starting my race day at around 15h00's daily.

Objection by rider of 2nd to the winner

Magi, surely that was not such a surprising result?

For me it was as Metro Man had never won over the C&D, and was up against 1200m specialists (or better suited distance horses of you like)

what happened to s. brown? not longer the first jockey for rugg?

Race 8.

Statistics based on STARFIRE

STARFIRE carries the same weight as last time out but heres why this race is so tough...
