As for racing in Kimberley. The biggest mistake the racing authorities made was by closing the Vaal sandtrack. The biggest outcry against dirt racing came from people making a living on foreign soil on some of their dirt tracks.

There were always be a place for racing on sand. We struggle in Cape Town to fill a 7 horse field yet the Kimberley trainers can fill fields with 12 and more runners for 12 races every meeting.

Chicken dont worry i am the cheat here. I supplied 17 of the runners that ran or would have ran today to various trainers/owners. I deal a lot with the trainers and have some insight ..but my forecast is done well ahead and is my own selections..no info was used in any of the selections..

tx Bob and co for a fantastic site...hoping our friends in FORMGRIDS come back on air in the very near future.

Someone pointed out to me that a certain trainer had 2 horses scratched today for this rule - They are both owned by the same person - I am just speculating here but could it be that both horses were based on a farm somewhere (maybe the owner looked after them and trained them ) and then were just sent to the races under this trainer's name? The facts are limited at this point but I assume the stipes(It was a stipe that scratched them) will investigate to rule out under the lap training - Very strange indeed

VERY KEEN to read the stipes report tomorow regarding this and watch how this incident will be kept under the lap

FRANCOIS P – scratched in terms of Rule 50.8.2 (advised 20 October 2017 / 11:22). An inquiry will be opened into the circumstances surrounding the scratching of FRANCOIS P
