r1 - im surprised alex lingari is at 20 - 1 very average field out of the raced runners bravo one makes most appeal with city deep to improve

r2 - anything can win no pick

r3 - un deux trois should improve over the extra and 13 - 10 very good price should shorten tomorrow

r4 - SHEZAGLO to good here 13-20 no value but banker in exotics

r5 - for me dark tide is at 2-1 great price looks versatile on courses rigd ora next best and street flyer for minor money my reasons are all runners that have run in a clsf race dark tide fineshed 2l off 1.5kg down ..rig d ora 1.65l off 1.5kg up street flyer 1.25 off 1kg down but a 12 draw...

r6 - mr 87 master and man looks to good here 7-2 great value ran in a mddle stakes 0.75l off level weight looks to hot for this field worth a punt

r7 - this to me is a field race so tightly hcpd if piccadilly or western dance had a better draw would be good value my first selection would be pucker up at any price defnitely a f race

r8 - this is my value bet on the card mr hugo 1.1 l behind in a clsified stakes level weight. sould connection has won a classified get a 6kg penalty withe the appie on makes it 2kg penalty which makes it a tough ask to win but should be in the shake up spanish boy gets 2kg on soul connection and should not turn the tables alex the great i make the biggest threat to mr hugo after running a short hean in a gp is 6kg down which makes it possibly the best weighted horse in the race id prefer this horse to run back on the other vaal track and get a nice price

r9 - 2 horse for me nice swinger exacta qtet race here written in stone deserves a win and a roughie trading up at 16 - 1 what a story has got some real form and im expecting to put up a good show and maybe win it

p6 for the guys that play

11
1 3 7
1
field
2 3 4 5 7 11 9
5 13 14

works out to be about 882 full hope 1 or 2 guys play and we can catch it

Race: 1 - Frozen Palace must be the play of the day.....many reasons. On its debut..ran to Soul Connection, that form has worked out to 3 winners and 3 places from next six runners. In its next race, Swindons pride won by 4.3 lengths, and basically 4 horses were all in a head space of each other for the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th place. So the horse can easily be seen as second in that race.

It would appear that the horse was more comfortable on the Vaal as opposed to Turfontein. And with Joe Gwingisha aboard...the wide draw can favour the horses on the outside if the pace is good down the straight.

Almost 5/1 a win or 7/10 a place....and great each way bet..given its 4 places. If you take 100 wins and 200 places...you still make a profit.

Race: 3 - Number 12 Un Deux Trois was backed to win on debut and found a probable star in the de Kock stable far to good. To the horses credit, it ran on best of the rest and was steadily backed down before the race to second favorite.

The only danger is Strydom on the first timer for Gorkan Terzi....but I think with the run under the belt, draw 8, Khumalo retaining the ride and with the Fortune horses running well second time out, if the horse doesnt win it runs second. A bipot banker 4 sure.

race 1 - youd be brave to take a bet frozen palace maybe a good place bet but im not at all confident to back that horse maybe there were a few winners out the formlines but it was still a normal maiden plate and finished 7 legnths off over 1200m... the vaal is the hardest course to ride imo because no horse wins start to finish those long straights you need to find some cover and press the button at the right time. hence a horse like lingari would not have to be a great horse to run a place just a nice turn of foot id rather take a chance on a place on that or back bravo one..just my opinion even city deep kelly has ridden the horse and finished a short head 3rd and is riding well ima stay out race 1 there seems to be better bets on the card later on
