are you sure he is riding? I see there is no jockey on gallop - I think Lyle is not riding

Nephrite is well related though TML, no? Also don't think Congo should be overlooked.

I'm not denying that the horse can't run or isn't well related, I'm just looking at what I am sure of. I know that Bull Valley is quicker than Prospect strike and that means it's bloody quick! I have no idea where the rumour of Lucky's horse came from, if someone said the stable, owners and something along those lines I'd respect it but it could have come from my pet goldfish for all I know so I can't go with it(same happened with Supanova, stable didn'y say it was a good thing and we all went crazy). Also you don't put that jockey on to win a race with a horse you fancy (no disrespect intended but Lucky has Strydom and Danielson on nearly all his other horses). For me if the horse is good enough to beat BV then its a special horse and I wish Lucky all the best and congrats to all involved but not for me, not well enough related to hint that it can run like Prospect strike first time out. I mean PS beat much better related horses in that race imo. Anyway I am looking forward to the race and may the best horse win

It's still showing up on gallop on my browser but I think even if they toss Ndlovu and Mabaye onto the horse it should win unless the first timer is good. It is middle on the school week with exams coming up so wouldn't surprise me if he didn't come up but I think there still a couple good replacements if he doesn't ride. Anyone other than one of those 3 would worry me though but I can't imagine SJG not putting one of them up.

I will be riding tomorrow
