Forecast looks good - Not too hot and maybe rain later - Will be a good day

I have just felt a few drops of rain here in Randburg. But the clouds are not ominous looking.

I've taken an ATC place multiple from yesterday - balance is Power King in Cape Town(first 2), Arcetri Pink who is course suited and should come on from her comeback run and One Fine Day who has also had a run back, has a good draw and has Marcus up.

I've also got a double running onto Trip To Heaven to win.
TTH out on official ratings but really a result of only having 2 starts in maidens and I'm hoping he can show his true ability.

ARCETRI PINK 86/100 is a superb bet to place - running on a train last time and now with the better draw will keep Athina honest.
I do like Elmo in the RTR and also Kingmambo's Legacy but I did find another that really could win this - SARATOGA DANCER - This guy has decent KZN form (run close to the improver CASIANO) and has a plum draw to boot.
History shows that Killua Castle loves the 3rd box at this meeting having filled that spot in the RTR race in 2012 and the Charity mile last year. I think this chap will earn again especially when you consider he will come into the race super fit and other may just need the run.
MAJMU has Delpech back up so I think she'll get back to winning ways though I do respect ONE FINE DAY who is decent (Siren's Call is also on the upgrade)
HARRY`S SON for me has it all to do today - Seasonal debut on a strange track - I'm not sure if he's just raiding or has been stabled up here, but still think a difficult task. TRIP TO HEAVEN won so easily last time and looks to have scope as that yard brings them on slowly - Going to be a spectacle with Strydom, Khumalo and Marwing all jumping on the rail - AMAZING STRIKE is another that will earn((Jayyed is the obvious horse)
I think MARIA THERESA is way too short considering the white out of her last run FORMGRIDS I'm expecting her to be rolled and fancy PRINCIPLED MAN e/w in that race
I like the grid on ZAMBEZI RIVER in the closer FORMGRIDS -

Adding Principled Man in a bet as well
Play safe

Agree with you. ... but will not add Principled Man

Going with an exacta in the 4th. Wild dancer and endearing.

Fav treble Athina,Maria Theresa,Viva Le Var
Bouclette Top to win the Charity Mile
Best of luck to all
