Fairview Poly, Friday 3 October

R2 shortlist: - Wadi Ramm looks unbeatable. But I am throwing in Arabian Approval, Puchini, Chellvan Abbey, Sleepinseattle and Crime of Passsion into the equation as well.

Puchini hass had 3 runs on the Poly, getting closer to the winner everytime.... Like the booking of Bling as well

would side with you Haupie on Mac Chestnut...being related to Via...

Pachinko...will like another furlong...my opinion...

First fav claimed 3 times. 6/1 7/2 22/10. R5000 a pop

R2 Chellvan Abbey E/W

hopefully for the backers...it's not another Dreambythemaster...

but then again...I think it won it's 1st run...

Then maybe do the exacta with Seventh Brother boxed? Should pay more than even money :evil:

Crack pot and sebastian bolt double

R3 - La Vega has been running on whenever she wanted to run, so the 1600 may just be what she wants.

Enchanted Smile looked like a banker, but the draw is closer to JBay than the winning post

Nice Catch could win this. Can't find anything against her especially after running on so nicely over the 1300 from a similar draw last time out

Others obviously have chances, but looks like the winner will ultimately come from a bad draw. Do not leave Jay Belle out of anything

Last note for now.... PE racing is so flippin competitive, it makes tipping so easy. You just mention at least half the field and nobody blames you for going wide on your selections

R2 Wadi Ramm has strong claims with two decent runs over 1000 on the poly and excuses when going over 1200 on the turf. Only just inched out of the winner's box when finishing strongly lto, he must have every chance of going one better here. The overall strength of the fields he has faced to date is something of a concern, though the 5th and 3rd lto were winner and runner-up respectively nto. (For those that can wait, the 3rd was Sun Flash who runs in the first if you want an additional pointer). That was WR's first run after gelding and the same scenario was faced by Sleepinseattle lto who also responded well to the "treatment" when going down (0.35l 3rd) narrowly to Future Leader over c/d. The two that beat him that day have done little to promote the form in subsequent runs though, in addition he is drawn wide in 12 and I am not the biggest fan of this jockey (not that I know much about it of course!) when he has to come from the back, I shall let him show me up for my lack of knowledge! Puchini gets the blinkers back on and the 1 box. The drop in d might help but again there has been little to promote the form from his 3.3l 10th to Lord Kelly over 1300 and Khumalo has seemingly not been finding the winner's enclosure so easily of late. He also has 1.75l to find with Arabian Approval on the run behind LK. The draws have not been particularly kind to AA and that is the case again here but he has nevertheless put up some creditable efforts. With the appie taking a little weight off and with a little luck in running then he may prove to be a player here, holds some e/w appeal for me. He finished 1.7l ahead of Royal Kate in the latter's penultimate run before she went on to pip WR. Chevellan Abbey may improve for his second run on this surface but has something to prove now for me and the 11 box may not make that easy to do here. Hard to make much of a case for the remainder but Crimes Of Passion is a Kotzen debutant in PE, showed little in CT but I am always a little wary of his first time out in PE. Watch out for any Agent activity. The fav has 2 stablemates out. Newcomer Your Lordship from a good draw in 4 but of greater interest to me is Johnny Handsome, who may have neen well beaten on debut but he lost a lot of ground at the start and did not run so badly considering. He is drawn wide here but I will still have a small idiot e/w in the hope the experience has helped and he gets away much better. WR the most likely but at the prices, I'll take my chances with AA e/w... ARABIAN APPROVAL x WADI RAMM x JOHNNY HANDSOME

Hoping you guys are spot on, but I have been hoping for some time now. At best a good E/W and as for Dreamy Forest I have heard a whisper. Exacta and swingers etc
Love PE racing, cause I also like playing the numbers game
