I thought Cashdrop a big runner although worried about the trip a bit, but CL has got his horses in top shape lately

I also like Lightbeam but I see stable quiet at the moment.

Well done Rock

Dodgy Itie needed every yard last time , but from a good draw and probable fast pace to chase the 3 point rise disnae look stiff

Costly but nevertheless have to hope OSL is ok

A few thoughts on the rest, very very competitive though imo, tricky indeed! lol

R4 Dodgy Itie won well lto from a difficult draw, despite the drp in trip I think he might be worth following and cracks a good draw here. Cape Siskin had excuses lto but might have to settle for silver again. Il Palio to be not far off and Sidhu, on sand debut, the one that might surprise.

R5 A few in with a chance again but I've been "shouting about" the fact that Rhumba Beat might prove to be (comparatively) fairly useful on the sand and will stick with her here, has a good draw but the extra 200 a slight concern. Of the others, Razzle My Tazzle and then Dukes Idol and Coral Key would head my list. Khumalo switching from RB to DI is noted but no idea of the inference with Muzi now up on RB though he does take most of the rides for the stable today.

R6 Plenty questions in this race. Yesan Star makes his sand debut and must have a chance if taking to the surface but could find no strong indicators. Song Jet has put in a couple of fair efforts on the Vaal Sand and if reproducing one of those here would have a definite claim from a good draw. Play Play seems to have had recent "issues" but if back to best is likely to be in the mix. Noah Forever is on 3rd run after a rest and is of some interest but a wide draw may make life difficult. Plenty others could win with a "surprise" return to form. Plenty potentials but I'll side with Chantecler who should go very close if repeating his first c effort when drawn badly over the 1200.

R7 Respect for Pontadera in particular and Jaguar but I have lately been with, and will side again with, Princess Chichibu in the hope that she gets her late rattle going early enough this time to take the spoils from a good draw with a low weight.

R8 On paper a very competitive looking affair with very few ruled out. Despite the fact that Stef's comments don't sound too confident and the draw is something of a concern, I think that if Kingsley can repeat his penultimate run then he must have a very decent chance here. Terrible Gulch and San Vicenzo head up my long list of possibles if Kingsley fails to deliver. Steady As A Rock imo is over-priced for a horse that was reported as not striding over a d probably short of his best lto and prior to that was a backed 18/10 fav over this d, though admittedly disappointed. Beat the fav here by over 2l to come out of the maidens.

R9 No easier. I'm going to hope the Spies yard have Seattle Wind fit and ready to go, her debut effort was quite impressive for Bingo imo. Stablemate Fort Success is a nagger and his lto effort on this c has him closely matched with Boston Legal who also has decent claims here. FS has poor recent form on the Vaal Sand but does tend to run better here, BL is a consistent performer and is likely to be thereabouts again. Luxardo has a decent chance of taking to the surface on breeding and looks to be a very lively contender if so. William Tell also has a chance on breeding of taking to the sand but recent form on the turf has been disappointing. Gracefilly not out of it and will be having R1 on Up And Running. Seattle Wind x Luxardo x Boston Legal.

Be(s)t of luck to all

This Flipping Bingo Park never disappoints

Had the stream went down ?

2 legs of the PA and its R12,60 min dividend? lokl

To be fair they normally give all their horses chances!
