Turfontein 16 June

No betting as yet.

Thoughts and fancies :

Weakish card and a Pick 6 carry over :

First 4 races are maidens where favourite punters can have some fun.

Race 1, Many struggling maidens and should be fought out between Auberge and Copper Classic, who attracted betting support last time and was finishing well over 1200 on inside track last time. Cunha has a nicely-bred Jallad debutante.

Race 2, Monarch should rule here.

Race 3, Lavender Bells and Drifting Duel should fight this out.
Scratched, My Darling
Western Spice, T.Pretorius

Race 4, Camp Commander should win this comfortably. Adding Rakeena's Classic and Tree Doctor to complete the trifecta.

Race 5, Freiburg has been campaigning well against some good sorts and with Strydom up, makes appeal. Wish Carlos well with his Louie's Pride.

Race 6, Khan takes the ride on Access Code, who has scope to improve and can follow up on his maiden win. Shakleton has won over course and distance at big odds while Fearless Gun debuts for Michalakis.

Race 7, Secret Sin my value bet for the day, fancies the course and is well drawn.
Roughie, Jargon

Race 8, 1450 might be a tad sharp for Aces Wild but she is holding form and ran a cracker behind Run Angel Run in her penultimate start. Interesting that Strydom hasnt retained the ride (but opted for Duke's Woman) but the under-rated G.Wrogemann has won on her before. Ami Amor a danger.
Scratched, Stunning Sioux

Race 9, Secret Superjet, despite a poor draw, my pick here, while Gem's Delight could cause the upset.

Multiples will include Auberge, Monarch, Camp Commander, Secret Sin.

Clan interest includes La Noblesse (just kidding), the irrepressible mactheknife, grecko (looking forward to the post Camp Commander interview), bit (?), Carlosthejackal, B.Irwin and Team V, bush hunter et al.

Ouzo !

Hi cuckoo,

totally off the subject, but can you give me the tel. # for Furious room, to make bookings

thanks

Hi Cukoo - I have been following Poems forever and it continues to dissapoint 28 runs no wins and a price tag of 200K. I see Jesica is up. I hope she wins and silences her detractors.

I reckon there will be a healthy P6 payout again today and I am looking for value all over the place.

Although probably wont be any value I will give Breaking Free a big chance again today, with Jonny up.

I wonder what time we will see some betting?

betting? nothing anywhere Public holiday? or did the books think we were racing at Flamingo today!!!

tabgold has odds

Good Morning Clan - let's have another little go.

The first 3 races look wwaaaayyy to hard - lol!

R4 Camp Commander to graduate at the 11th time of asking
R5 Freiburg to defy top weight
R6 Hunch Shakleton is spot on today!
R7 Hard race slightly favor St Stithian over Sky of Diamonds
R8 Another Hard race - maybe it's Gary's day = Red Carnation E/W?
R9 Yet another hard race - yet another E/W chance for G.A. Shukuthezi?

Boy o boy it looks a tough card - and maybe another P Six carryover!

So I think I'll just do a 'patient' Camp Commander - Freiburg - Shakleton + an E/W Treble.

Ouzo guys, see ya Trackside on Saturday - Jim.

Elvis, you need to phone Phumelela, 0116811500, and book via Debbie or Cheneez.
Not sure if they there today though.
Your initials not C.C. are they?

Alcaponee, i've given up on Poems, but weak field, good draw, has run 2 x for 2 places here (once over course and distance), so could be in the shake-up.

2nd for Poems,Al. Hope you went e/w.

The mactheknife roll continues.
Well done again, Brian Wiid and co.

Pick 6 :

1 x
1,3,4,7,8,9 x
1,6,11 x
2,3,4,10 x

2,3,8,12 =
