VAAL outside track 24th February 2014

As long as we are lucky we attribute it to our smartness, our bad luck we give the gods credit for, lol... Been in the latter camp lately.

Selections for the VAAL tomorrow...

Samogan banker in everything for me.

That's what i was told as well. Work riders races always a difficult call.
I just want to see if there is any money on the first timer....heard it can run

Guys, I see there's many Samogan fans. Just my view on the race (for what it's worth). I can't see Samogan winning, and have doubts of whether it will make the PA also. I think you might get 3/1+ on this 2mrw from the current 15/10.

In its last race on turf it was lucky to bump into that field, which imo looked much more impressive on paper (kiss me hardy, 3 yr old level weight and a better sand horse, in a rush which didn't run to form and ended up being its 2nd to last run, panjo who prior to that run was a 64 on turf, straw market carried 60 and didn't run to form and sugar and shake 10 lengths off).

I think the 2/1 opening price was largely based on its last win. If I was forced to bet on the race I would take the 14/10 top 4 on Max the man rather than 15/10 on the fav. Other dangers for me r radio waves, our jet and botanist. Also interesting why Striker is riding the Cape Town horse? I guess it's either banker Samogan or field type of race.. Hope it comes home for the supporters

PA:
10,11 - 1,2,5 - 1,2,6 - 4,6 - 5,7 - 2,4,10 - 2,13
Have a lovely day.

Devious Tiger

Card looks favourable but sometimes things happen
I put my money down on Samogan n dats for the day
Azzies horse MAYBE just b careful

Anybody like lizzies legs today?

Alec Laird usually hits form at this time of the year with the bid Highveld features coming up. He has had 6 winners out of his last 21 runners. I like his runners today and make Dollar Dazzler the best bet of the day, back in form and well weighted in this Graduation Plate. I am sure the only reason Weichong got off him is because he rides for the Ferraris stable. The 12/10 on him looks very decent value to me. I am going to play a Laird yankee as well.

Race 4: 1 Dollar Dazzler
Race 5: 8 Stratagea
Race 6: 4 Rushing Josh
Race 9: 13 Unconditional.

Play well.
