Pirates, I know you asked Rob but I had a look and I see some decent sorts like TAPTAP MAKHATINI, ENCHANTED GUEST, SARATOGA MAGIC who ran 2nd on Tuesday and ADAMS ROCK if I'm correct.

Let's wait until it drift back out to 50-1...

Morning all, I see in R1, Baby Tiger, was 33's now into 16's. Ran 3.25L behind Striking Allice last week.

TAWAKUL back on the grass, looks decent value at 6-1...

Agrees

The 1st race from betting seems a lottery.

1st Race Regency Agent 2nd Race Sail to paradise.. 16/1 double. Hit n hope lads. Coz after Master Sabine card gets hard

I tried to deconstruct race 1 and have decided to back BABY TIGER for the following reasons;

1. 2 runs over course and distance

2. Showed nice improvement last time out when running to slightly stronger

1st run ran 6 lengths behind SANTA CLARITA who was backed 13/10

2nd run ran 0.25 lengths behind heavily backed FRENCH FLAIR at 13/20

IMO, value for the race and it's been backed from 30/1 to 14/1.

If expected improvement continues will be a big runner...

Very tough card imo - just taking a double for interest; Hillbrow to win on to Right to Tango to place

Hi All

Can anyone assist with my query as below, or am I getting senile.

Races 3 & 4 today are over 1400m. The SP Pro state that both races are around the Bend but as far as I know that all 1400m races at the Vaal are down the straight and looking at theCard I cannot find any 1400m races that were around the Bend.

If they are around the Bend then the Draw would surely play a big factor as I think the start would almost be in the turn.

Are they running on the Inside or Outside track today.

Thanks in advance and anticipation.

Race 8 Princess Lily good form to much stronger ()
Race 3 Delaware Blues good improvement in last run ....

Straight, not around the bend.
